“The booking process is really easy on line. We like the low deposit option aswell. We have used Sykes several times and the cottage descriptions are all spot on”
“Good choice of holiday homes to choose from. Ease of using website good & photos of properties with good description really helpful. Easy to book no problems.”
“Wow... The barn in pateley bridge.. Chrissy and John were the best hosts.. Views are stunning...the barn is immaculate and homely.. Can not wait to get back next year... Missing Tova the dog”
“Enjoyed our trip to Ilfracombe. The house was used by fifteen of us.Lots of stairs which our toddler enjoyed! Plenty of offstreet parking but at the bottom of a hill.”
“We arrived at the chalet after crossing the small bridge to the chalet very disappointing the grass was hi the chalet could do with some TLC inside and out we entered the chalet lots of furnishings were old and tired opened the back door and gras was foot high we couldn't use the picnic beanch I not wanted to go back home ,it wasn't like the picture my husband said let's give it ago , had to wash pans and cutlery the pans are so old and worn out not happy at all I thought sykes cottages let us down this time definitely won't be going back again £700 pounds not worth it”
“The cottage was in a lovely area and the hosts had left everything inside the cottage that we could have needed from milk in the fridge to welcome cookies and ironing boards to cleaning products also hairdryer, iron and vacuum cleaner!
There were a few minor issues such as quite a few cobwebs on the beams, very low water pressure (getting a shower was like standing under a dripping tap lol) there wasn't a games room as detailed in the description and also the tv didn't have a dvd as described.
The single beds were a bit uncomfortable as the mattresses were harder than ours at home so there was a change to our sleeping bodies which showed the following morning with groans of aches and pains!
The refurbished interior decor was a lot better than the original pictures and we feel that these should be updated as they make the cottage much more appealing!
The outside light and guttering could probably benefit with a good clean down tho! ;-)
We didn't get to see much of the hosts as we were too busy visiting various places of interest like Bodmin Jail, Fistral Beach, Restormel Castle, Boscastle, Tintagel, etc but they did wish us a safe journey home on the last day!
Yes, we would come back!”
“We had a great week at Nivarna the house is very well eqipped with excellent downstair space .
Two things were disappointing .The twin bedroom was much smaller than we thought it would be ,ok for kids but very cramped for 2 adults .The showers were also not good .The shower in the top bedroom stopped working altogether by the end of the week and although the shower in the en suite was ok there was not a lot of power at times.
For a house that cost over £3000 for a week I would expect decent and reliable showers.”
“Used this company a few times now and find that the descriptions of the propertys is spot on. They keep you in the loop and the whole transaction is painless.”
“Lovely location ideal for the beach and great space for the family plus parking for several cars. House was clean and well equipped with a lovely welcome pack. A separate shower would have been a welcome addition to the house but overall we had a lovely holiday.”
“Very good stay at Buzzard barn, the owners went above and beyond for us. The barn was fantastic all round, very clean and modern, we will definitely be returning.”
“The booking process was straightforward and easy to complete.
Happy with how the process was and the booking.
Now we can't wait to go on our next adventure/ making memories”
