“Spotlessly clean, very quite location.”
Mr Deakin July 2019

“Great location.”

Good facilities. Accurately described. Would recommend.
Mr Chubbock July 2019

“An Kres is a wonderful little home from home, with every comfort you can think of.”

.. even the dreaded WiFi that no one seems to be able to cope without.. Too many things to list that are available for use on arrival, and all they ask is that you keep it tidy and put the rubbish out.. Gill and Colin are lovely hosts and neighbours and are full of useful local information but by the same token will leave you alone to enjoy Located just outside the village of Mevagissy it's either a quick walk downhill to the town or you can take the car.. helpful tip.. use the willow car and coach park as this means you can drive straight out without having to drive through the town to come back Small patio area to the rear of the house is great if theres just the two of you, but the dog struggled as he didn't have any grass (he,s fussy like that) but a quick walk round the corner soon sorted him out.. Would definately recommend as this is great value for money for this time of year, will hopefully be back again sometime soon.. Jon & Allison

“A lovely, warm, cosy cottage in a quiet cul-de-sac with a pretty garden with seating.”

Be aware that the walk down to the harbour is short but very steep. Owners very helpful
Mr Toogood October 2018

“This was our first experience with Sykes Cottages and we were really pleased with the quite location, available parking and the cleanliness and comfort of our cottage.”
Miss Shawcross September 2018

“Lovely bungalow everything there we needed for a perfect base to explore.”

Downside to the bungalows situation was the very steep hill if you go down to the village and walk back up again. Disabled people would definetly need to drive to the village and back.
Mrs Mckee June 2018

“Excellent base for us and our dog.”

More spacious than other one bedroomed accommodation we have stayed in. Very clean and well equipped and would not hesitate to recommend it. Need to be fairly fit to tackle the hill walking back from Mevagissey.
Mrs Davis June 2018

“Lovely comfortable stay, would happily recommend.”

Had everything you could need for a week away and more.
Mrs O'callaghan June 2018

“Wonderful cottage we really enjoyed our stay.”

They thought of everything you needed, Home from home.
Mrs Welsh April 2018

“Loved this little cottage.”

Perfect for two people. Beautifully appointed, wonderfully comfortable, spotlessly clean, deceptively spacious. Gorgeous little secluded garden. Thoroughly enjoyed our week there.
Mrs Kitchener April 2018

“Felt the accommodation could be improved by clearing the small garden of all the enormous bushes to make it pleasant to sit out in.”

Currently you have to fight your way through to a small rusty table in amongst the bushes. It could be made really nice for visitors to sit out in and to eat outside. The bushes also make it very difficult to access the washing line.
Mrs Reeves March 2018

“Cottage was extremely comfortable.”

It was the cleanest property I've ever rented. The only downside was the storage heaters which didn't seem to work so well so we had to have the electric fire on for warmth in the evening.

“Fabulous tranquillity in Mevagissey”

We have just enjoyed a wonderful week at An Kres. The standard of accommodation is exceptional, extremely clean and we'll equipped. It's set within walking distance to the harbour, it is a steep climb back up, but don't let that put you off as the tranquillity of the location is well worth the effort. There is a small rear garden perfect for chilling out or eating breakfast on a nice summers morning. We travelled with our dog. We would not hesitate to recommend this property and hope to return again next year.

“Home from home”

The accommodation was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The owners were very friendly and helpful, there is a lovely garden to sit in, which gets the sun all day. It was a short walk to Mevagissey, where there were plenty of shops and the quay side, where we spent a lovely time watching the boats. It is a good base to drive to see the surrounding area, all within an hours drive.

“Lovely well situated and modern cottage.”

We found the position of an Kres ideal. The welcome was very warm and friendly from the owners and the cottage had every modern convenience one could wish for. It was very comfortable and had easy access to the village of Mevagissey and was not far from all the main roads to the rest of Cornwall. The nearby gardens of Helligon were wonderful and a treat not to be missed.

“Calm quiet area”

Overall it was good. This place is rather a community. It felt like I was home. I was expecting something slightly secluded.
A FlipKey verified reviewer May 2012

“A lovely place for a restful holiday”

This property provided everything we could have hoped for in a Cornish fishing village. The owners are very friendly and quick to offer useful advice on where to visit and shop, and the property could not be faulted. It was ideal for exploring the middle of Cornwall with Heligan on the doorstep and many other Cornish gardens and attractions within easy travelling distance. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
A FlipKey verified reviewer August 2011

“A very adequate property for 2 people to stay in”

The property was clean and modern and had most things required for a rental property. Mevagissey is a lovely place but be prepared for the big hills.
A FlipKey verified reviewer November 2010

“Great place to get away from it all!”

The 'cottage' was lovely and clean and had everything we needed. The owners were friendly and helpful. The only reason I haven't given this 5 stars is that it was little further out of the town than we thought and not as private as we would have liked.

“gold star cornish retreat”

“A cosy and select cottage high above town”

Everything had been provided for our stay in new condition; it was quiet, select and convenient as we did not mind walking the 25% climb up the hill from the port and quayside, but this might be a problem for some. Parking in town is expensive. There is so much to see and do within a short car ride.A memorable holiday week !
