The house was absolutely fabulous, very spacious and comfortable too. Space outside was lovely, neat gardens with lots of parking and places to sit out when the sun shines. A nice walk to the beach at Red wharf Bay and would definitely go back.
The house was fantastic! Great for a family celebration.
The house was wonderful and very well equipped for our 3 generation family. The garden was suitable for our young grandchildren to play safely in. The BBQ and hot tub provision were wonderful and all the family had a brilliant holiday.
The house was fabulous & was a very important part in us enjoying our weekend away. I would definitely return to this property.
An absolutely fabulous and spacious house. The hot tub and being so near to the beach was a fantastic bonus. The furnishings were very high quality and it was beautifully decorated - very stylish yet comfortable. We would love to go back. We are a large family and the layout of the house worked for us perfectly. Super duper!
A great New Year break for family and friends. The house had all the facilities you could need and space in abundance. A great holiday was had by all.
Incredible
I am baffled by the bad reviews from this beautiful house! I stayed here in the winter with friends and did not review it at the time but now I've seen some negative reviews I felt the need as I thought it was fabulous. Honestly the photos don't even do it justice, the whole place had a luxury feel to it and it was immaculate. We loved it that much we have booked it again so will be leaving another review afterwards.
Disappointing
We booked this house for a week for my brother and sisters 40th birthday in October. The house was beautiful and there was lots of room for all 15 members of our family, including our children and a baby. We experienced endless problems throughout the week. When we arrived the house was filthy; dried food on the kitchen floor, thick dust everywhere, dirty toilets. The owner was contacted that day and arranged to come and clean but failed to turn up . After rearranging to come again she failed to turn up a second time. There were not enough towels, dirty bedding, two stair gates broken so my sister whos birthday it was couldnt stay in the master bedroom as it was too much of a risk with a baby and a broken stair gate. The hot tub was broken and this was one of the main reasons we had booked this house. I had read all the reviews previous to booking the house and the holiday company rang the owner to check that the hot tub was working as many of the reviews had mentioned that it was broken. She assured it was a new hot tub and worked fine. This wasnt the case. The remote controls in bedrooms didnt work, lightbulbs were out and cobwebs everywhere! It was Halloween and we certainly didnt need to put up any decorations! Many of the reviews all mentioned similar problems. Maybe the owner hadnt read the reviews online but there were pages ripped out of the guest book so Im assuming people had left their comments in there too. We were so disappointed with the lack of communication from the owner. For such a special occasion that my mother had paid for as a treat. This house needs some TLC and a good clean. Such a shame as it could easily be a 5* property. We would not recommend this property.
Lovely place
This place is amazing the pictures don't do it justice tho it's bigger than it looks we went Jan 2020 for 2 days as a family and friends it is lovely.if there's any problems the owner sorts it out quickly the Hot tub was really hot so you wasn't cold when in it we went down the road to the bay 8 min walk we had a meal at the boat house it was lovely 5 * would book again it would be nice to go in the summer thanks
Superb
Really superb place to stay, we were a
group of 8 adults and 5 children. Spacious, clean, wonderfully decorated and well equipped. Location is good, your able to walk to the beach in a couple of minutes and then possible to follow the coastal paths. Three decent pubs / restaurants nearby. Owner was really helpful with our enquiries before we went.
There is an extra bedroom not mentioned in the particulars - doesnt have a full height door but would be fine for an older child to stay in. Good value for money, have already recommended to a friend and will definitely be staying here again.
Such a shame - don't come here if you want to use the hot tub!
Unfortunately I find myself writing a negative review of this property & it was something which would have so easily have been fixed before we arrived. The house is beautiful and is in a fantastic location, but if you want to make use of the hot tub you may want to choose another property as this one is broken. We believe that the owner knew the hot tub was broken before we had arrived, it was strange she didn't know how to get it working herself considering she owns it! We called Skyes multiple times across Fri-Mon to send someone to fix it, several people tried but we had no luck the whole weekend! There were 9 of us (females) celebrating a birthday and of course the main attraction was the hot tub, I hate to say it but it really did put a dampener on the weekend & after the multiple complaints made we seem to have gotten nowhere hence this disappointing review.
Broken Hottub - Clueless owner!
Stayed Friday - Monday over first weekend of November. Called Sykes upon arrival to advise hottub was cold, they called back confirming owner emptied and cleaned it that morning and it 'won't reach optimal temperature until Saturday'
This wasn't explained upon booking, had we had known it wouldnt be working for 24 hours, we'd have booked elsewhere.
Owners son came Saturday evening, approx 24 hours after arrival - unacceptable! Told us he'd sorted it and it'll heat up - it didn't.
Called Sykes again, Owner came Sunday with different son, tried passing blame onto us, something along the lines 'you've knocked something when messing with buttons, it's sorted now'
1) We hadn't knocked anything at all
2) Even if we had, between the owner and two sons, they should have known how to fix it - they didn't.
This hottub was freezing the whole weekend.
I believe the owner knows it's broken, otherwise they could have fixed it?!?!
I also think it's disgusting to blame your guests for something they hadn't done! The range in the kitchen - only one oven works, so cooking a meal for eight was hard, upto 14 (max capacity) impossible! Drains in master en-suite were bust, couldn't use the bathroom at all as smell was awful. Lights around the hottub didn't work, but neither did the hottub so.... I wouldnt recommended this place. Undoubtedly it's a beautiful house, but if you're wanting a hottub as the main feature, go elsewhere where you won't be blamed for the owners shortcomings!
