What our customers say about their holidays

Susan - Verified booking

We chose to re visit Falmouth having moved up north some eighteen months ago.

Prior to moving we had lived in Falmouth for over 38years and knew Pendra Loweth / Maen Valley so chose to choose a cottage on the site, this been Spring Tide as it advertised no dogs, king size bed and a twin which was our criteria. Its been the worst cottage we have stayed at with itâs non welcome food smell of curry and to its total lack of cleanliness, lack of maintenance and lack of information on the use of equipment. The issues made us very wary with regards to our health. (Allergies especially dust). 1. Extremely dusty skirting boards more so in the twin room which we ended up cleaning, however, looking behind both bedrooms (with a torch) furniture the dust was extremely thick behind the wardrobes meaning this cottage has not been deep cleaned for a very very long time. (Photos taken) 2. The washing machine: the washer draw has not been cleaned and the washer had a very unpleasant stale smell so didnât use. (Photos taken) 3. The standard of cleanliness regarding the crockery and cutlery. The dish drainer was dirty. The utensil holder for larger items has seen better days. (Photo taken) A wooden chopping board which should be condemned. The kitchen wooden blinds are dirty. (Photo taken) The lounge has such impractical furniture for a holiday let the cleaner has no way of moving to clean behind. 4. All the fans in the house are dusty , hence not used. (Photos taken) 5. The shower head is dirty (photo taken)with black mould along with mould in places in the bath. (Yes Cornwall is a damp county but itâs no excuse not to keep on top of it especially more so in a holiday let) 6. The patio table and chairs had not been cleaned prior to the let neither had the patio been swept or weeded (monkey nut shells under the table and chairs ) (photo taken) Other observations: 1. No instructions folder left out for guests (eventually found under other items in the bookcase):- No instructions for : A. TV which had Four monitors. B. Microwave ( instructions were for a former model) C. Instructions of how to use the oven and grill - all markings had faded over time along with the hob knobs. D. No first aid in any kitchen cupboard as per the Sykes part of the folder. E. The blind in the main bedroom had a hand written note on the windowsill to say it wasnât working properly and how to higher and lower it. If it was known to be an issue by the owners ( who we understand visited before our arrival) then fix it. (Photo taken) We feel Sykes Cottages need to re inspect this property. We trust this constructive information will be taken onboard and improvements made in order that future guests will have a better experience than we did.

We arrived after a 6 hour drive parked the car and then looked for the keysafe, which we couldn't find.

Rang Sykes as we were very tired and needed the loo. Sykes duly contacted you and said you would be in touch shortly. You weren't! We were pretty upset by this time as no-one from your company had bothered to ring us so rang Sykes again who contacted you a second time to get this situation sorted out. A neighbour who had also just arrived, heard what I was saying to Sykes and after a while we realised that the car parking was at the back of our our property - Flotsam - no. 87 and not at the front. All the other houses in our terrace had key safes near the back entrances except for ours and no. 86. This meant that we had to walk down the hill to the end of the row, go accross the side of the last house and then walk back up the path to get to the front of the house where there was not one but TWO keysafes. Finally, after a lot of unwanted hassle, we could get in. We were considerably upset by this experience as it would have been so easy to get in through the back entrance had there been a key safe there to enable this. We are both disabled and in our 80's. Luckily it wasn't raining or one of us would have been soaked by the time we got around to the front door. Not having one of those key safes near the back door is definately not user friendly and there is no mention of having to do the hike around the houses to get to the front. After a long and tiring jpurney this is not acceptable.. There is also no dishwasher in the property even though dishwasher tablets are being left for its use and there is no dryer either. What a fiasco that we could definately have done without!!

Stephen - Verified booking

First impressions were good but a couple of things were soon discovered.

The description to find the property was poor.The property LOOKOUT actually is the entire complex and we stayed at number 6,however to find the entrance was far from easy ,the road name would help find it and also its on a one way street which you first find as a No entry ,so have to drive all the way round..Lots of steps to negotiate and carry luggage down,definitely not for the unfit.48 steps down to the road to get onto the high street.Once the property has been entered comes the garage bit, 4 floors,not easy to park,especially if you have a medium to large vehicle. The bays were for 2 vehicles, luckily no-one parked next to us all week,if the park was full it would be a nightmare to try to get in and out as it is very tight and requires alot of manoeuvres.The property is nice and light with good views across the estuary when stood up.The bathroom is a big letdown,the bath is marked and it would benefit a walk in shower instead. The overhead shower is nothing but a trickle with a hard plastic curtain.The majorly of the basin is taken up by the mixer taps and is near impossible to wash your face without putting water everywhere. The slow close toilet lid lives up to its name ,we were there a week and it still hadn't closed when we left!The patio is strange it's on the front with a table and 2 chairs ,however when sat down all you see is a white wall with no view whatsoever. All in all we made the best of the property, would we use it again,the jury is out.

Sue - Verified booking

The location is great.

Located at the top end of the high street in Falmouth, all of the shops and restaurants are no more than a 15 minute walk away. Very conveniently, one of Falmouth's two piers, is only a 2-3 minute walk down the high street, offering boat trips to St Mawes and river cruises. The apartment is excellent. The huge open plan living room and dining area is a fantastic space and the view out of the windows down to Falmouth harbour, is picturesque. The fully equipped kitchen also has a great view of the harbour. The bedrooms, whilst on the cosy side are decorated nicely, have very comfortable beds and plenty of space to store clothes, in both drawers and cupboards, where lots of wooden hangers are provided. Private parking is a bonus and removes the stress off trying to find parking spaces especially in high season. My only reason for awarding this accommodation a 4 out of 5 instead of a perfect 5 is the bathroom. Whilst it is adequate, I would suggest that the shower could do with an upgrade and the shower curtain could be replaced with a glass screen. The standard of cleanliness across the whole property was very high. The booking manager Sue was very helpful with any questions that I had both before arrival and during. Would definitely return to this accommodation if staying in Falmouth again.

Ruth - Verified booking

The whole experience was really brilliant in all aspects.

It couldn't have been any closer to all the facilities you could wish for eateries too many to mention & close to the pier where many of the boat trips went from and the Tourist information centre was there and you could book through them or at the many kiosks dotted around. The best part if you wanted to go around the large busy streets you had a shuttle bus that you could use. We used it for free as our concessionary bus passes in our town allowed free travel anywhere but it was only Â£2 hop off and hop on for other younger adults. Bargain. We even had free travel to Truro from Falmouth with the passes, provided you travelled after 9.30 each day. Most of the buses could be caught at Falmouth to any parts of Cornwall free uses these bus passes.For us it was wonderful. Central to two train stations(town & docks) in the town you were spoilt for choice. We chose to leave the car parked in the accommodation all week as it was in a safe underground car park for the apartment and allowed us to leisurely explore without having to drive everywhere.
