Mr Bowman September 2021

“Any incredibly well equipped, modern and comfortable place to stay.”

The addition of a games room and pool table kept our older children occupied. We would certainly have no hesitation of recommending Ridgeback house or staying again ourselves.

Mrs Burton July 2021

“It was so lovely to stay in a home that had such great facilities and equal sized rooms without someone confined to a tiny room or sofa bed.”

The house was so well equipped and is the perfect size for large groups or families. Communication with the owner was also excellent!

Mr Kaur August 2020

“Beautiful house, with everything you would need.”

Mrs Sims August 2020

“Beautiful and luxurious holiday home that exceeded expectations, and excellent communication with the owner Very well equipped, especially in the kitchen.”

Games room and ice machine in the kitchen were very popular with our teens! The little covered patio area in the back garden was really lovely and well-kept, with pretty planting display, and we made the most of this area, often eating meals on the patio. Within easy reach of some lovely beaches and walks right on the doorstep, but even heading up to the north coast in search of some bigger surf, was only around 45 minutes. We would gladly return.

- Mrs Sims, August 2020
Mrs Hussein July 2020

“We had a really enjoyable holiday in Cornwall, Ridgeback House was perfect, clean and well presented, and very well equipped, with a lovely outside dining area.”

We all felt safe and comfortable in the house with all the additional measures which had been taken due to COVID-19. The location allowed us to enjoy the local beaches and walks but also acted as a good base for day trips.

Mr Wellington July 2019

“Ridgeback House is probably the best holiday home that we have stayed in.”

The location and facilities are absolutely superb and the house incredibly well equipped. There is a real feeling of quality everywhere. Definitely a house to return to. We loved it.

- Mr Wellington, July 2019
Dr Coleman July 2019

“This was our second stay at the property and it didn’t disappoint.”

Well geared up for kids and grandparents alike! Village only a few minutes’ walk and the coast path a few minutes in the other direction.

- Dr Coleman, July 2019
Mrs Nicholls June 2019

“This property is one of the best that we have stayed in over many years of self catering holidays.”

Everything we could possibly want was provided, the area was lovely and even the weather was brilliant. The Old Inn did really nice food and The Mounts Inn even better, and then chocolate from the chocolate factory, what more could we ask for?

- Mrs Nicholls, June 2019
Mr Easton June 2019

“Excellent spacious and really well equipped property.”

Perfect for a home from home holiday.

- Mr Easton, June 2019
Mrs Jacobs May 2019

“Firstly Sykes is a brilliant website to use when searching for a property, easy to navigate and the app is great too.”

Ridgeback House was a great family house in a perfect location. It was VERY well equipped, they thought of everything you might need. I recieved a welcome email from the owner making sure all was well and to contact her if we had queries which was a nice touch too. We didn't need to travel more than 20mins on foot or in the car all week. Stunning beaches, chocolate and craft center, Flambards theme park, cafes, parks & shops! I would definitely recommend to others and hope to return soon - a true home from home.

- Mrs Jacobs, May 2019
Mr Horne May 2019

“A fantastic house with everything you could need and more!”

Mr Peters October 2018

“The cottage was in a very quiet location, but only minutes walk away from shops and pubs.”

There were 6 adults and a 3 year child in our party, but there was lots of space and everything we needed for and excellent stay.

- Mr Peters, October 2018
Mrs Howes September 2018

“The best equipped rental house we have every stayed in.”

We were very pleased to be provided with essentials like tea, coffee, dishwasher tablets and much more for our long weekend away. Our party (3 generations) consisted of 3 couples and 2 children and the bedrooms suited us perfectly. Beds were very comfortable and everywhere was very clean. Having a tv in each room was a bonus as the children could watch their favourites and the adults theirs. We would definitely like to visit this house and Mullion again.

- Mrs Howes, September 2018
Mr Matthews September 2018

“We thought that this was an extremely well presented holiday home with excellent facilities.”

The location close to the centre of Mullion village and within easy reach of the stunning coastal scenery was ideal. We think that Ridgeback House is first class and we would highly recommend it to friends and the rest of our family.

- Mr Matthews, September 2018
Mr Thomas August 2018

“Great holiday.”

A really lovely house with every possible need catered for. A co-op and Mullion store very close by with a chippy and pub within a 5 minute walk. Great base to explore the lizard peninsula. Had a very unfortunate problem but Sykes and the owner were very helpful and fair. Was fixed as quickly as possible. Much appreciated. Thank you Sykes, and we can honestly say Ridgeback house is the nicest, well thought out and equipped holiday let we have ever been too. Highly recommended.

- Mr Thomas, August 2018
Mrs Bryan August 2018

“Fantastic property, brilliant for families, well equipped and super clean!”

- Mrs Bryan, August 2018
Mr Jameson June 2018

“Ideal location for beach and surrounding attractions , ridgeback house superb , for large families of all ages”

- Mr Jameson, June 2018
Mr Hoddy June 2018

“This was a very well equipped and spacious holiday home that easily accommodated our party of 5 adults and 2 under 5's.”

It is well placed for the village of Mullion and local attractions and walks. As we know the area well we knew exactly where it was but it is attached to a council estate and not what you would call pretty so if you want lovely views in a picturesque setting this is not for you.

- Mr Hoddy, June 2018
Mr Tennati May 2018

“Had a great holiday.”

The property was even better than the photographs, excellent location & convenient to tour most places in southern Cornwall. Will definitely recommend Sykes Cottages and look forward to another holiday soon :-)

- Mr Tennati, May 2018
Mr Goldsmith May 2018

“Ridgeback House was lovely and an ideal base to explore the Coastal walks around Mullion.”

We found Ridgeback to be exceptionally well equipped and the cream tea and biscuits along with the milk and jam was a welcome surprise.
