The Old Dairy is in a lovely spot in terms of proximity to the coast and is very peaceful however I feel there are a number of areas to raise.
When we booked we were told that there was limited wi-fi, this was then changed later to no wifi without the offer of changing our booking or a reduction in cost. When this is put alongside the fact that there is basically no signal there either, it leave you feeling quite vulnerable. The site itself also has a lot of derelict building and materials around which are not mentioned anywhere. If my children were younger, I would have very significant reservations about their safety. There is no outside/security light when returning at night to a pitch black site. The TV is much smaller than the one in the photos and there is a great deal of clutter around the place - too many pictures and bits on window sills. There is nowhere to hang coats and nowhere to wipe dirty or wet shoes. The shower head doesn't sit properly in either of the holders in the shower. I raised the issue of my very dirty duvet and the washing machine during our stay, these were both rectified. The bed linen provided was polyester and cotton when I would always expect it to be cotton and that has always been my experience. This leaves you feeling uncomfortable at night and worse for my younger daughter for whom it caused her eczema to flare up, bleed and be very sore. I realise that it isn't a more expensive property but I don't feel it was up to the standards of other Sykes properties and would make me cautious when booking in future. The owners are clearly very nice people but perhaps need more guidance on what would be expected. Thank you.

We were very disappointed with this dark dingy and scruffy cottage.
It was due partly to its location, down a long unmade road, with o outside lighting at all. The house was seemingly in a scrapyard, surrounded by dilapidated, dangerous buildings, full of abandoned broken farm equipment and falling debris. These blocked the sea view. Indoors there was mould and rot in the bathroom skirting and pipework. The cooker was old and needed updating, and the hood was sticky with old grease, unpleasant to touch, and didn't work. The front door had no mat to the dirt yard, (hard to keep floor clean, just a broken brush and dustpan standing next to the open shelf cutlery area). The cottage was full of random fusty old ornaments crowding the shelves and storage areas with no other space to put things. The dark lounge had uncomfortable small sofas, and stank of mould. The towels provided had a fetid smell of mould. We didn't use them but the representative, Amber, brought some fresh ones. She also got the shaver light replaced during our holiday. Luckily we were able to go out each day on walks, and eat out sometimes, so avoiding too long in the fusty atmosphere. What a good job we had the Cornish coast to escape to. But it has detracted from our experience and I would not trust Sykes Cottages again.

The reason I chose this cottage even after reading negative reviews: Location of this little cottage is 10/10.
Short walk to crabbing on the pier, fossil hunting on Monmouth beach and a small walk into the main town/pubs/restaurants. Kids loved the location as did I. The only negative to the location being lack of parking space (Try to use the house just at the bottom of the garden, lovely owners with a small amount of parking spaces for £13 a day in high season). Lovely old cottage that has potential to be much nicer and would benefit from some TLC specifically on the outside. Some negatives: The garden and specifically around the side is a mess. As mentioned in a previous review, sinks, ladders etc just piled outside the kitchen window. My two kids called me outside when they were playing as they had seen a couple of rats hanging around. Wifi would definitely be a bonus here as I had little phone signal too. Tv reception is basic yes but not worthy of a negative review in my opinion as I do not book stays in a beach cottage to watch tv! The beds are not the most comfortable. Would I stay here again? Yes I would. Could it be better Yes ..the cottage has a lot of potential. At the moment in high season ( my visit was late Aug bank holiday ) it was expensive and probably could find nicer for the money.

This is a lovely cottage and we had a wonderful week!
We had everything we needed here and it felt like home, but with a thatched roof. It's nicely furnished and the double bed was comfy. We even spent time in the pretty garden opposite the cottage, reading and having refreshments after going on our many walks in the area and note, there are lots of options. As advertised, there is a parking space, but be warned it is a challenge in a larger car as the entrance is snug. We reversed in, it was easier. There is a bed and accessories for a dog, so they're very welcome in the cottage. Please note that there is no wardrobe in the double bedroom, but there is a recess in the bathroom for hanging up clothes and that was fine. We recommend The Grove Inn which is only a two minute walk away. The hosts are very friendly, they've good local ales on tap and the food was terrific. It's a very popular pub, so make sure that you book a table! All-in-all, it's a cosy place to stay and we would love to revisit. Hopefully, we may even get to see a wild otter or Kingfisher next time!?!

Good points.
This apartment is very well appointed, practically furnished and is an excellent location for a memorable holiday. We have stayed in the apartment for several years and it is always prepared to the highest standards by the Housekeeper. At the end of each week they completed a perfect bed linen change, and she is always more than willing to provide good information about local restaurants, supermarkets and places to visit. We will return in both June and September 2022. Points of Concern. Once again the fridge was always wet inside and required to be mopped out, twice every day. The temperature in the fridge is not as cold as it could be. The sink in the shower room only slowly drains and it needs some attention. The kettle clicks off sometimes before it boils and there are quite a few bulb outages. I suggest that since the rental costs are high that either the Owners, or Sykes Holidays Maintenance Team, look at these issues immediately to provide better value.
