The house was situated in a lovely position and it was really great to have two parking spaces off the road.
It was a little tricky to get out of them, as people kept parking on the other side of the (very narrow) road - itâd be great if there could be a âno parkingâ sign on that wall so people didnât block the car port. Overall, the house had good facilities and sleeps quiet a few people. However, when we arrived, it looked quite tired and could really do with updating: the paint was very scuffed throughout the house, some of the furnishings were very worn, and in some cases, stained. One of the mattress covers (you have to take off the bed sheets on the last day for the cleaners to take away) had a blood stain and others on it, and should really have been taken out of circulation. The main issue was that much of the house wasnât clean, in particular the living/dining room/kitchen: the floor was filthy, as were the dining table and kitchen sides. My little oneâs feet were black about an hour after arriving, as sheâd been running up and down the living area. We did clean as much as we could in the time we had, which you really shouldnât have to do as guests. Some of the rooms also hadnât been dusted above sight level, as there was dust hanging off of the door frames. Conversely, the bed linen, towels and bathrooms were clean and fine to use. We were unable to use the balconies, as they were covered in bird poop, including the balcony furniture. One of the top floor shower drains was blocked and wouldnât drain away properly. There was also mould around a number of the windows, which should really be cleaned off. The beds themselves were comfy and all the bedrooms had hair dryers, which we really appreciated. The main bathroom had a really nice bath, and other than the two bathrooms on the top floor - which need looking at, as one is in particular need of attention - they were well appointed. Location wise, the house is in a really good spot, literally across the road from Nathan Outlawâs restaurant, The Angry Anchovy pizza restaurant and the main Port Isaac car park. The small beach at Port Gaverne is also literally 2 minutes walk down the hill. Port Isaac is not particularly accessible and I wouldnât recommend driving down there; instead, take the coastal path from the car park, which is a bit flatter than trying to go down the hill into the village. We really recommend Strong Adolfoâs diner on the other side of Wadebridge, which is located at a high-end shopping park. If they sorted the cleanliness and gave everywhere a bit of a refresh, itâd be a beautiful house to stay in. As it is, we probably wouldnât go back.

Fabulous location of property within a few minutes walk of all amenities in Port Isaac and Port Gaverne.
The property itself is spacious and provides very good facilities for a large group including large kitchen, large lounge with enough seating for all and large dining table. This was more than enough for our group of 8 adults. Bedrooms are fitted to a good spec but only two bedrooms have access to televisions (one large, one small). There are washing and drying facilities in a separate utility room. Excellent WiFi connection with no drop outs. A large tv in the lounge area with Apple TV connected and all the latest apps as well as Live TV. The kitchen contains a large fridge freezer with ice making facilities. There are also SMEG kettle, toaster and coffee making facilities. A large oven and grill are also available. However there are enough places to eat out within walking distance as well as takeaways from the Fish n Chips Shop, Pizza place -Angry Anchovy-highly recommended. Within walking distance (5 mins) of the local Co-Op store. There are fabulous views from the balcony, dining room and two of the double bedrooms. Parking is limited to two medium sized cars and a small car (mini) can fit on the passageway to the front door if needed. There is also parking on the road in front of the property which is currently not double yellow marked. Failing this parking is available in the car park on New Road, free from 6pm to 9am. Unfortunately the owner did not leave any information regarding the property, for instance, what to do with bedding etc on the last day, what day bin day is, any recommendations to eat out etc. We were concerned prior to arrival due to other reviews stating the cleanliness of the property needed attention, This was not necessarily the case for our visit. The only significant issue was upon arriving the table on the balcony was in desperate need of a clean. In addition to this, the cleaner may need to pay attention to minor issues in the property, otherwise cleanliness is very good. I would definitely book this accommodation again due to the excellent location and the facilities available in the property.

Fantastic spacious property with spectacular views of the coast - easily one of the best family holiday cottages I have had the pleasure staying in over the may years I've been visiting Cornwall.
My group were extremely impressed with the property. We love to cook and felt the amenities were generally good, with ample fridge / freezer space and cooking facilities, although some of the utensils were quite dated and there could have been more crockery to avoid having to immediately wash things after each use to make sure we had clean things to use. The living space was very comfortable, with a large TV and comfortable sofa and the open space with dining table and amazing views were awesome. Thank you also for the welcome teas, coffees and biscuits! Some areas for improvement... A leak from the shower of the top floor twin bedroom (garden facing) into the double bedroom below was identified following a short shower. I notified Sykes Cottages and whilst it was confirmed (through email) that a plumber had come to fix this whilst we were out the next day, the leak continued, so we didn't use that shower for the holiday. A little annoying, but given all bedrooms had ensuite and there was a communal bathroom, it wasn't the end of the world. Whilst the house was generally clean, the wood flooring in the extended living space (i.e., kitchen / diner) was quite filthy. I was mopping up some spilt water using kitchen towels on the first day at the house and it came up extremely dirty! It seemed like it must have been weeks (or months) since the floor was last thoroughly mopped. I would have expected this to be done using steam mop or equivalent before each visit. Mold around the balcony door frame in the master bedroom to be addressed. We feel more could be done to make each of the balconies more inviting to relax outside (e.g., plants or other) These points aside, we were extremely happy with our stay at the Crow's Nest!

Absolutely beautiful property, just a few things as to why we didn't give it 5*.
Having read the description of the property, it reads as gas central heating and underfloor heating. We were disappointed to find it only had underfloor heating. This wouldn't have been a major issue but as it was winter and around 5 degrees, we really needed warmth. We had 2 OAPs and a toddler. The 'welcome' letter said the heating had been set to 18 degrees in the bedrooms and 20-21 everywhere else. We were told we could not alter it, therefore we were extremely cold. There is a fire in the lounge and lighter fuel, but nothing to light it with. Although the Co op is literally round the corner, it's not ideal having to go out in the freezing cold when it could have been stocked ready for the occupants. The fire was not strong enough to heat the whole lounge/kitchen area as it is open plan. All the heated towel rails had masking tape over the switch, implying we were not to use them, however the welcome letter said just turn them on? We tried to call the out of hours number several times to ask them to turn the heating up but no answer. The welcome letter also stated we would receive a 'welcome pack' with supplies from a local shop - we did not receive anything. Whenever I have stayed anywhere with a coffee machine, there has been a good supply of coffee pods - there were around 5 decaff pods. I think more attention to detail needed to happen. It's the small things that make all the difference. The cleaning wasn't brilliant, the fridge and a few cupboards had an awful smell. There was also a pile of dust/dirt in the bathroom that hadn't been cleared. With all the above said, we had an amazing holiday and had the heating not been an issue, would definitely return! The beds were super comfy and the views were beautiful.

Fantastic property in a great location, we never tired of the breathtaking view.
There are however a couple of points Iâd like to raise. The second en-suite with the wooden sink unit is absolutely covered in black mould, this was raised by a family member within hours of being in the property. The window in this room was also stuck shut. This left the room smelling horrible and every shower added moisture to allow the mould to thrive. The blue velvet sofa in the lounge, the seat cushion zip has failed, so as soon as you sit on it, it starts to come away from the foam, making it extremely uncomfortable, and required repeat intervention to prevent it coming off completely. Kitchen utensils, whilst the kitchen is pretty well stocked, there are a few things missing; kitchen scales, frying pan splash screen, plastic/glass measuring jugs (for microwave use) to name a few. One of the knives in the knife block has failed due to it being put in the dishwasher, the wood has rotted from the metal blade. The garden furniture, this has become tired, and several cushions appear to be missing, it might be time to invest in a new set, as it spoils the time in the garden The property book mentioned a hand held vac, but we couldnât find it so had to dig out Henry instead. These points aside we still really enjoyed our stay!
