“We love this place and keep returning.”

It's like greeting an old friend. Well maintained, clean, and the investment they keep making in the property is only for the benefit of us visitors. Comfortable with fabulous views,. I can't fault it.

- Mrs Hawkins, October 2018
“This is the first time we have rented a cottage and were greatly impressed by the facilities and comfort of the cottage it was like home from home.”

The views were brilliant and it was a bonus to have a permit for a reserved space for the car. I would not hesitate to book another cottage through Sykes in the future.

- Mr Redshaw, October 2018
“Beautiful house let down by lack of cleanliness and upkeep of outside area and balcony which should have been the selling point.”

Access steep and uneven. Not pointed out when booking and unsuitable for elderly or infirm. Beautiful views and location to amenities just a shame a bit grubby and not as expected in the photos.

- Mrs Whitaker, September 2018
“This was our second visit to Rose Villa - we were so impressed the first time, we decided to return.”

Everything was as before and we were generally very impressed with the location, facilities and accommodation. The comments below are not complaints, simply feed forward comments really: The court yard garden would have benefited from a good tidy up - the weeds were beginning to get out of control but this didn't impact on the quality of our stay - simply a cosmetic point and easily rectified. Also, although we appreciate the park below the cottage is council owned, it was very untidy and made us feel rather sad that it had been neglected since our previous visit. It would have been useful to have access to spare bedding and towels - we do of course appreciate there are laundry facilities at the cottage but to be honest, when on holiday, I don't really want to spend my time doing laundry. It would have also have been useful to have a small selection of pillows - the pillows were rather soft for my taste but I appreciate that's a subjective comment. We would have liked a summer weight duvet - it was rather hot during our week and bearing in mind it's not our property, we did not feel comfortable leaving windows/balcony doors open at night. The bathroom door in the en suite is difficult to close as the door has dropped and the toilet seat in the en suite was broken on our arrival. We did report the issue by email but did not get a response. The above are all very minor gripes, easily rectified but for us, would definitely improve the quality of our stay. In short, we all had a wonderful week and were rather sad to leave - Rose Villa is definitely a home from home for us and we shall definitely return in time. If it was up for sale and we could afford it, we would definitely move in permanently!

“A lovely villa in a cracking location, loved it!”

- Mr Barrett, July 2018
“Rose villa is amazing!”

It it the ideal home for a holiday in Cornwall it has every thing you could possibly need for your stay including fabulous views, it's close to all amenities and is close to mousehole and Penzance. We have had the best week and didn't want to leave.

- Ms Clarkson, July 2018
“I have emailed 3 times with my complaints including photographs about this property and received a reference number and i was told that someone would call us but as of today 2 days after we have left i have received no contact from Sykes and i will be contacting all my friends and family to advise them of the very poor condition and non existent contact by Sykes.”

The location was good but the cleanliness was disgusting, all the toilets had stains and debris on them, the sinks had hair on them and the hand rail up the stairs was black from dirty hands. Also the towels that we were left had stains on them and the bedding in one bedroom appeared dirty and smelled. There were no instructions on how to work the appliances in the kitchen making the stay very unattractive and we will not be using Sykes ever again. A company such as Sykes really has to improve their customer service, we are really unhappy with the whole process and will not rent from Sykes again. Andy Greenwood

- Mr Greenwood, June 2018
“We had a lovely holiday at this house.”

It was well equipped, beautifully decorated and extremely comfortable. The beds were the most comfortable we have slept in whilst on holiday and we have stayed in numerous holiday homes over the years. We forgot to put any feedback in the visitors book but would be grateful if you could pass on our comments. I booked the holiday online and it was an easy process. I did phone to cover us for accidental damage at the property and the call was answered quickly and efficiently. We have no negatives to report on either the accommodation or your company.

- Mrs Scott, June 2018
“Unloading the car was the only difficult bit.”

Here we drove to the top road and quickly moved our bags to the yard and then parked in the reserved place. The views were fantastic and a real joy. Barry Kellington

- Mr Kellington, June 2018
“Rose villa was a fantastic holiday cottage.”

Very clean and very well equipped. It was a great base to get to many lovely beaches and tourist spots. My favourite porthleven . Would definitely recommend .

- Mr Perry, May 2018
“The location, view and quality of accommodation were all excellent.”

Nearby shore walks for the dogs was very convenient and Penzance had all the shops needed. Overall a very relaxing holiday.

- Mrs Bennion, May 2018
“What a beautiful cottage.”

It was much appreciated when we arrived to find teabags, milk in the fridge together with a packet of biscuits and vase of fresh flowers - what a great start! The cottage is in a great position with views over the pretty harbour. It is very well equipped with quality items. The beds are really comfortable with pure cotton bedding. The towels are great too. Everywhere is decorated to a high standard and is spotlessly clean. We didn't need it, but the log burner was laid ready for use with plenty of extra wood available. We were delighted with everything and will definitely be returning. Thank you.

“A lovely house in a great location with fabulous views.”

Spacious, beautifully decorated and furnished, Rose Villa is a gem.

- Ms Pepler, April 2018
“Housekeeping!”

!!! We were asked to contact the numbers provided 48 hours before arrival time, which we did, but got voice mails on both, left message, but got no reply. We found used towels on back of bedroom door, 90% of all towels were dirty with stains, we called the house keeper, regarding towels, we again got an voice mail, we left a message & she called us back, she told us the towels were new, but she would come round and change them. On closer inspection we found downstairs shower room had mud up the sides, the cushions in lounge had stains on. The bed in the en-suite was not very clean. we found a broken glass in back of kitchen cupboard. There is a leaking in the ceiling of the en-suite shower room. Parking permit was out of date. Good location We have decided to contact the owners with our concerns

- Mr Norval, March 2018
“I cannot fault the lovely Rose Villa at all.”

It is a wonderful place to stay in. The sad matter for us staying this time was the huge mix up about the date our holiday started leading to the problem of walking in to a dirty place and no bed linen on the beds. Yes people were sent round at 6.30pm but I had already done all the cleaning myself so asked for them to make up the beds as I did not want all the hassle of it being cleaned so late in the day in the time we had paid for and with it being over three hours after the arrival time. Happy with the way you are looking in to what happened and why?

- Mrs Cheeseman, March 2018
“Really wonderful cottage with superb overlooking harbour, sea & bay wide views from Penzance to st michael's mount.”

The cottage was really well equipped and had everything that was required. Access could be a little tricky for those whose mobility is limited, but for us that was not even an issue and we could find no fault with anything. Even though we are not pet owners and the cottage accepted pets which was clear when we booked,we would love to stay again as we loved the cottage and the quaint and tranquil location.

- Mr Nicholas, February 2018
“Rose Villa manages to improve with each visit, from an additional balcony and bay window to take advantage of the wonderful view across the harbour and Mount's Bay, to new furnishings throughout.”

- Mr Mccrudden, November 2017
“We had a great visit.”

Beds were very comfortable. Lots of room to spread out and relax. Sykes was very easy to deal with and I would use them again.

- Mr Clark, October 2017
“A fantastic pet-friendly top quality house with outstanding views.”

We were a family of 6 with an English Pointer and a Cavalier. The house was extremely clean and spacious with a wonderful view of Newlyn harbour, Penzance and St Michaels Mount. The quality of everything was of a high standard and lovely comfy beds. Near to lots of interesting places and beautiful walks.

About the location

NEWLYN

Penzance 1 mile.

Nestled next to Penzance, and although still a quaint village in its own right, Newlyn is actually the third largest fishing port in England, and an important Port of Refuge for all sea baring craft. It is unusual in that visitors can still watch the landing and auctioning of fish at the market, as many families have for centuries before. This Cornish village is clustered around the harbour, with its historic 800 year old quay (the Mayflower actually left for America from this quay, not Plymouth) curling around a few small boats on the western side. Famous for the Newlyn school of Art and Newlyn Copper, the Cornwall Coastal Path passes through the village, as does the level Mousehole to Marazion cycle path. An abundance of wildlife and flora can be enjoyed along both, with basking sharks, dolphins and grey seals often seen. The Cornish coast is renowned for surfing, and Penwith offers some splendid beaches on which to enjoy this sport as well as surf fishing for sea bass. Mounts Bay also offers a wealth of opportunity for watersports enthusiasts as well as giving visitors an opportunity to relax and unwind in beautiful surroundings.
