    Easy to get to and in a peaceful spot! Hot tub and huge balcony was lovely, overlooking Carbis Bay! It is very well equipped with crockery, cutlery, etc and with most things that you would expect in a holiday let including dressing gowns, but no basic cleaning materials, no washing up liquid, no basic condiments - oil, herbs, etc, no hand wash. However, the dishwasher was broken on arrival. We were phoned and told this. Engineer was there when we arrived without the correct testing equipment and then returned 4 days later, diagnosed the problem, new pump needed, said it wouldn’t be fixed before we left. Still had 3 days of the holiday left. We were very surprised that parts couldn’t be ordered with next day delivery. Sykes were not interested at all in trying to get it sorted with any urgency. The bottom line is that we had a lovely time, just disappointed in Sykes’ attitude. The house is also up for sale so they may not look at replacing it.

    It has an amazing view of Carbis Bay and the hot tub was a lovely. Great location to walk into St Ives. We were just disappointed with the cleanliness and maintenance of the lodge. It had cobwebs everywhere, dead flies on the window ledges. Dust on the bedside lamps and shades. Toilet not flushing correctly, spot lights not working, bedroom blind broken, broken plug socket in the bedroom and the sofa felt unstable! This was all reported. The property is looking very tired and needs a freshen up, but this could be due to it being for sale.

    Well equipped kitchen but no hand wash, kitchen spray supplied. Only 30 min beautiful walk to St Ives or hop on the train in 5. We had a truly wonderful week as a couple but if house full as a 7 only having one very small ensuite and one bathroom would be a challenge. Hope to return, many thanks. And thank you for the awesome weather in October, so so lucky.
