the bed was small and uncomfortable, the shower just put water everywhere and was not contained within the shower area which will cause damp and rot problems in the near future, the kitchen very dated with very cheap appliances. Spending almost £600.00 for 3 nights represented very poor value for money. I cannot imagine what it would be like to stay there with four people as my wife and I plus our dog found it very restrictive. there is mould behind the sofa and low level around the skirting board is pretty grubby. It is an old place with single block walls which will get damp which I can live with but not for £200.00 a night we could have stayed in a really nice hotel for that. In the customer book there was a comment saying that it was their 5th and final stay at 1 Wellhayes as it has got too expensive for what it is. That just about sums it up

- lovely balcony. -fully enclosed garden for the dog. Negatives -we spent 45 mins looking for the car parking space at 9pm at night - really terrible directions on the welcome email. Asked many local who also didn't know where undercliff carpark was...should be made clear it is not the 2 public car parks. we called the Sykes cottages emergency voicemail line and no one returned our call despite getting a text from them. - the house is not signposted from the road and when I did finally find it using the what 3 words it was pitch black and overgrown and needed a torch to get into the keysafe. Really not a stress free way to start the holiday. - the property felt quite dirty and run down, with cobwebs/spiders and dust covering the bed frame, the glasses needed re-washing before use. - was unable to shut the washing machine door..therefore unable to wash anything. - I agree that this is not the owners fault but other holiday makers should know that the park situated next to the property is used by the locals to smoke weed on a summer's night, so on 2 occasions we were woken by the youths (who sit right below the balcony) and the bedroom was filled with fumes, so we had to shut the windows.
