My only little comment on a negative side would be More oven cookware required, tins a little tired, Pyrex would be good. 5pm to gain entry to the property is a little late, when wanting to get settled in after a long drive, if this could be made earlier say 3pm - it would be perfect. Thank you to the owners for letting us stay in your beautiful holiday home we will definitely book again

It was 5 minutes from seafront but in a peaceful residential area. For eight people there was plenty of room plus bathrooms. Excellent holiday accommodation.

Parking was okay too and despite having two cars we could find roadside parking. We were three families holidaying together and chose the property after reading a previous review from April 2023 which praised the facilities. We arrived on the Saturday and on Sunday we noticed a patch on the living room ceiling. This was bigger on the Monday and so I rang Sykes and was told to leave my key in tbe key safe and it would get sorted. I heard nothing else. The patch was under the third floor bathroom so we stopped using it not wishing to damage the property. Nobody contacted us. Nobody came. We realised we hadn't been left enough parking tickets so rang Sykes back to ask what to do and to ask if we could use the bathroom or if it was getting fixed. We were told again they would be in touch and again heard nothing. I've not been reimbursed for two cars parking for a day each and I've not even had an apology for the lack of available facilities. I also only heard back when I received an email asking if I was pleased with how it was dealt with. It all spoilt our break. We had two young children with us who had to walk down a flight and half of steps in the night and the house we thought would give us plenty of space ended up not doing what we thought it would. I'm afraid I wouldn't recommend this property.
