Reviewer Type: Family With Children

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Great location and amenities.

Negative: I had to ring Sykes to provide the lock box code because it was never sent to us. They provided it very quickly but it was a layer of admin we didn’t need after a long drive. We stayed here 2 years ago and it was stunning, however it was a little tired this time round. I’d recommend washing the sofa, throws and cushion covers as they’d definitely seen better days. Also the TV in the first bedroom’s sound was a bit dodgy. This has been mentioned by others but it sounded like there was a family of elephants living upstairs!

Summary: Lovely, however a bit dated now. Location exceptional. Would stay again if prices were dropped.

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: The property was fantastic in a really convenient location and everything we expected it to be.

Negative: The Wi-Fi was not working - we couldn't even find the hub that was meant to be. On contacting the property letting agent we were told the Hub was in the upstairs apartment which wasn't ideal. The agent then called back to say they are unable to contact the people upstairs and for us to contact them which we did. The people upstairs too had complained that they had tried everything and the wifi was not working and it seems the problem has been going on for a while. I would rather have been told there was no WiFi / TV and the truth rather than been lied to by an agent earning money from this property to do a poor job.

Summary: Lovely and pleasant stay. Would have been fantastic if we were told WiFi / TV not working at first.

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Specious, nicely decorated and good location.

Negative: All the rooms and bathrooms got mold on the walls. The soonest you open the front door you can smell damp. Unhealthy environment specially when you travel with kids. For the price I paid I expected property without a damp. Definitely will not recommend it.

Reviewer Type: Extended Group

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Size and amenities

Negative: No manual for washer/dryer They could have simplified instructions on dishwasher by putting labels on panel. Owner did not answer my two questions. I followed up and they once again did not answer. No excuse unless Booking did not forward my questions. Very time-wasting, trying to find a manual, online (machine was too old). Two hours of starting and restarting machine. VERY FRUSTRATING!!! Had to pack wet clothes and rewash them at next destination.

Summary: Frustration

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Location was great close to harbour and all amenities.

Negative: Accommodation was not serviced on arrival. Eventually made contact with Sykes in Cheshire - was advised cleaners would be there by 5.30pm but they didn’t arrive. Had to leave possessions in the living room and go to pre booked restaurant in travel clothes!! Not able to change or shower. Was offered a £50 refund at this time by Sykes. Which has not been forthcoming despite chasing by e-mail. Returned to accommodation at 10.30 pm to find cleaners had been but we were then unable to get into the property! Had to call out the emergency number and await a member of staff to turn out to get into the property which we eventually did. Rooms were serviced by this time. But a very disappointing start to the holiday. Followed by disappointing follow up by Sykes. The property itself was very nice and in a good location. But nonetheless left us disappointed!

Summary: Disappointed

Positive: Very homely, well equipped and great location. Beds super comfy.

Negative: No hand wash provided in bathrooms, toilet seats were loose. TV in back bedroom didn’t work. Great to have laundry detergent provided, would have been good to also have a couple of tablets for the dishwasher.
