“Lovely place for a base for this area of Cornwall.”

The house was lovely. As there were two cars, we found parking for the second car difficult and costly. On arrival it was wet as there had been a short spell of rain so the steps up to the house were slippery. I would not recommend this property for people who may be infirm purely due to the access to the house. The only other thing is the trees outside the front of the house. They are quite overgrown and therefore spoils the views from the kitchen area, this is only a constructive ...

The house was lovely. As there were two cars, we found parking for the second car difficult and costly. On arrival it was wet as there had been a short spell of rain so the steps up to the house were slippery. I would not recommend this property for people who may be infirm purely due to the access to the house. The only other thing is the trees outside the front of the house. They are quite overgrown and therefore spoils the views from the kitchen area, this is only a constructive criticism and no way is meant to have a negative impact on the house, which we could not fault. There was a sewer smell coming from the en-suite room, as it was not too overpowering so we did not report it until the end of the week, just so it was bought to the carters attention.

“The house was lovely and the owner was so helpful and nice when we needed help.”

Such a great property!

Mr Briggs July 2020

“The cottage was so homely and just right for my family.”

I loved the fact that our dog could be part of it, plenty of walking places. There was no stress all facilities were there for us to access in the cottage. The view was lovely from the bedroom veranda and downstairs it looked over the harbour stunning a holiday worth while.

- Mr Briggs, July 2020
Mr Burness July 2020

“Really lovely holiday!”

The cottage was absolutely beautiful, the views out to the harbour were amazing. Location was perfect for exploring the area. Would only say that a few extra kitchen equipment would have been an advantage (e.g measuring jug and oven glove) went and purchased the latter and left at the cottage. Would love to come back and will definitely recommend to friends and family. The weather was fantastic too!

Mrs Davies January 2020

“Wonderful house, with everything you need for a stay away from home, as this places feels like home.”

Wonderful views of Newlyn from all aspects of the house. Lovely and clean. I would buy this house tomorrow (if it was for sale). We were traveling for the first time with our 11 week old daughter, and it was just perfect. Will be coming back to stay again.

Mr Rogers October 2019

“This property (Rose Villa) had great character, amazing location and everything you needed inside.”

Modern, but quaint. Perfectly clean. Car parking permit for very close car park was a real treat. Enclosed gardens for our Boxer puppy meant he could wander freely with no worries. Would return!

- Mr Rogers, October 2019
Mrs Coverley September 2019

“Lovely cottage.”

Clean and very well equipped, great that you get a parking space with a permit to use. Great out door space for my dog and was extremely secure inside and out. Had a great holiday! Definitely recommend

Mrs Price September 2019

“On arrival we found the house to be extremely dirty I had to request someone to come round and clean that evening.”

There was broken furniture and a broken step. So I spent my first evening there cleaning- not good The garden was full of weeds and unwelcoming I am writing to your head office about my experience. I have never had to complain before in all the years of using your company Maintenance and upkeep seem to be lacking It is a shame because the house could be amazing

“The path way to carpark is very steep & could be slippy when wet, this is not shown in description of property We stayed in this property last year & had the same issues Dirty towels, bins not emptied, toilets not cleaned properly Dog hairs on floors & furniture downstairs, also dogs hairs on carpets on stairs & landing We found a dirty hankie down a side of one of the beds A baby's dummy under one of the sofas We had a baby with us so we decided to hoover down stairs We called Sykes Cottages, they told us the cleaner would come in on Saturday lunch time so we stayed out all day, she turned up at 3 just when we had returned, she emptied the bins & took towels, she said she would contact us to come back & clean, we heard nothing She told us she had just been to another property with the same complaint & spent 3 hours cleaning, she said she would have given us some wipes if she had any.”

All the contact details are incorrect Car pass was out of date by 2 months We have stayed a lot of your properties We have sent you photos of what we had found, we feel very let down by your company, we would book with you again & would not recommend your company

“Easy key collection.”

Lovely property. Excellent views. Cosy log fire. Massive 3D type television that my 10 yr old son was over the moon about - access to Netflix etc and high speed broadband. Well equipped kitchen and generally lots of space. We all had a very relaxing enjoyable time, and that is before you add in all our exciting trips out - Newlyn Art Gallery, Sea Bar - yummy tapas style local fish meals, Seal Sanctuary -Gweek near Helston, Porthleven beach, Black,s Restaurant Penzance, Toti Pizza Penzance, swimming and gym Penzance Leisure Centre, Lamorna Cove coastal path, Exchange Gallery Penzance and our favourite bookshop End of the World Penzance. Just want to live there now!

“The cottage was like home from home, it was clean well equipped and if could afford it and it was for sale i would have happily bought the place , never mind dream on and look forword to another lovely holiday with sykes cottages.”

- Mr Edmunds, March 2019
Mrs Mccrudden November 2018

“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 Mccrudden, November 2018
Mrs Hawkins October 2018

“Brilliant holiday .”

.house is more then home from home beautiful views and so miss 1st thing in the morning to to the views across the harbour in the evening House is immaculate and would 100%recommend

- Mrs Hawkins, October 2018
Mr Redshaw 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
Mrs Whitaker September 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
Mrs Chivers August 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!

- Mrs Chivers, August 2018
Ms Clarkson 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
Mr Barrett July 2018

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

- Mr Barrett, July 2018
Mr Greenwood June 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
Mr Kellington 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

Mrs Scott 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
Mr Perry May 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
Mrs Bennion 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 Bailey 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.

Mr Norval March 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

Mrs Cheeseman 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
Mr Nicholas February 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
Mr Mccrudden November 2017

“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.”

“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.

“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 town in its own right, Newlyn is actually the third largest fishing port in England, and an important Port of Refuge for all seafaring craft. This Cornish town 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 town, 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.
