We had a few issues some of which Sykes responded to and menial holiday homes came out to rectify while we were staying. Other issues are :- the outdoor shower is not heated as advertised. There is no family bathroom or bath so please be aware of this and if the people in the bunk bed room need the toilet in the night they would need to go into one of the other bedrooms or go downstairs. The water and ice dispenser on the freezer isn't working and needs an engineer to fix it I see this was reported last year in a review and obviously not fixed. The parking space at the back is very rough ground and piled with weeds and really only suitable for a 4x4 vehicle. The privacy lock on the downstairs toilet cannot work because of wrong fittings in the door frame. The bunk bed room blind needs a safety hook putting on it. There is a washing machine and a clothes line but no washing basket and only 8 clothes pegs. There is also a clothes airer. Sykes houses seem to vary as what is left in the house on arrival, this one had toilet paper, guest soaps, some milk and Bara Brith but very little cleaning materials apart from some anti bacterial spray, no condiments or kitchen roll. We have had better houses through Sykes in other years. There were plenty of tableware and cutlery, lots of knives and 3 meat tenderisers, 2 egg slicers and other things we didn't use but no fish slice or tongs or scales which would have been useful. Some proper up to date instructions in a folder on how to get the smart tv working and some leaflets on what to do in the area would have also been nice. The DVDs left in the tv cabinet were not suitable for children on wet days. It was ok for a week but not really value for money. we had good weather which helped. we wouldn't book this house again especially as the price seems to have almost doubled for 2025. A bit disappointing really but it was only for a week so we made the best of it.

We were very happy with the property although it could be improved by providing for the youngest members of our party. The bedrooms were comfortable and although the bunks are adult sized the room is very small, which could be mentioned in the listing. There was plenty of street parking but the listed parking space is overgrown, untidy and not really fit for purpose. There is easy access to the dunes and beach behind the property with a short walk into town to the facilities and main beach. To improve the property the owners might consider the following: an outdoor washing line for drying towels, coat hooks under the stairs and towel hooks on the shower room doors, provision of items for babies/toddlers - a travel cot, highchair, stairgate and baby bath. We would return to this property and are happy to recommend it to others.

The house could do with a really good clean. Lots of dust under the sofas and beds. So many ornaments that would make it difficult for the cleaners. The kitchen is stocked really well with plates cups etc but lots of the extra bowls and cooking equipment could be removed which would leave an empty cupboard to use to store food. Some basics like salt, pepper, oil, cling film etc would be nice. The parking spaces behind the house are really fit to use and turning a car around would be extremely difficult. However we had no problems parking on the road in front of the house. These are only minor things as the house is lovely and we would definitely stay again.
