Miss Blackwell
October 2020

“A lovely bungelow which is very well equipped, you can see the owners had decorated to a high standard, however there is damp in both bedrooms and mold is breaking through again.”

Cleaning not up to a good standard found someone else's sweetcorn in microwave and two tablets on the floor in the bedroom.

- Miss Blackwell, October 2020

Thank you for taking the time to comment. The owners take your feedback very seriously and although previous feedback has been very good regarding cleanliness, they have spoken to their cleaners so that this doesn't happen again in the future. We would advise that if there are any issues during your stay to contact us straight away so that issues can be dealt with at the time. - Sykes owner relations

“I was very surprised with the quality and how well equipped the cottage was it ...”

I was very surprised with the quality and how well equipped the cottage was it was very very good and very good customer service we had to leave early not because of anything wrong with the cottage but a deaf in the family so only stayed a couple of days but they were perfect and very comfortable

“The check in and check out times are ridiculous its like losing two days of holiday after a 5 plus hour drive toget there we then had to wait a further 4 hours before we could access the rental, we looked inside through windows and the cleaning had already been finished this was 1pm, once inside we noticed the bedrooms to be damp and musty , when it rained we had water pouring in to the bedroom from the ceiling by window , so had to move bed away, also the floor was wet under the bed in other bedroom wetting the suitcase, the place was fairly clean but tired and in need of tlc, heater in dining room not working , we tried to enjoy our time there but could have been better.”

The worst thing was that we couldnt even pay to use swimming pools, because the owner didnt subscribe to use them , there is a lot of of inhouse arguments between owners of properties and owner of resort resulting in them saying no to people who rent private property such as our one, we were told that if we had said we were from the villages local we could have paid 4pound to use facilities sad state of affairs for a holiday resort, also the so called on site shop is virtually non existent hardly stocking much of anything and is situated inside reception so closes when they shut normally around 4 to 5 so no good if u run out of anything, lastly the pub on site is unwelcoming, quite barren and eating facilities leave a lot to be desired, apperently the gent who runs the pub also runs the pools and sad gym and originally had banned people from anywhere other than the resort owned properties to use anything and the whole place nearly closed so we were told by another owner , the place needs money and time spent on it and could be so much better ps the owner of our rental didnt subscribe to use pools because apperently they want to charge 1500 plus vat for the privilage, i dont blame him for saying no , would think unless they change the way they run the place it could dissapear sad as could be so much better, we wont be going back and will be telling family and friends not to bother either.

Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback. Unfortunately due to Covid-19, for your safety, extra time is required by our housekeepers for cleaning the property for your arrival. This is unavoidable. With regard to the leak that you have mentioned, we understand that our Property Manager visited the property to check this and found no problem associated with water ingress, as we believe you were advised at the time. Finally, we do not subscribe to the on-site facilities, and we try to make that clear to our guests before they book. Sykes owner relations

“Another lovely holiday can't wait till next year to go back”

- Mr Timmis, October 2019
Mrs Hamer October 2019

“On arrival there was a musty smell in all the rooms and we had no heating in the front rooms for one night.”

w#Was sorted out by the caretaker I think who came knowing the problem and had brought an extra heater with him anticipating the problem.. He told us that the heater in the room has not been working for years, this to me seems that the property is not being checked each year. Whenever we went out and returned there was still a musty smell. This is one property we will not be returning to.

- Mrs Hamer, October 2019

Thank you for taking the time to respond to our feedback request. We are very surprised by your comments as there is a convector heater in the front room & none of the guests this year have mentioned any issues with the property heating. We have tasked our maintenance firm to investigate any issue and can assure future guests that the heating issue if any will be resolved. Despite the points raised we are glad that you enjoyed your stay. Sykes owner relations

Mr Dickens May 2019

“It was a pleasant experience staying in ManorCombe 40, very good value for money and when we stayed it was very quiet and peaceful.”

“A lovely holiday home to visit, has everything you need to have a very comfortable holiday.”

Mr Howlett April 2019

“The property was listed as having wifi but only had an EE dongle that we were told would work in a laptop.”

It didn’t work in mine. Also who normally takes a laptop on holiday? I feel it should not be advertised as having WiFi. I did email you about this on our first day there as it was very necessary for us to have WiFi as we are walking lands end to john o groats and needed to look at maps, routes etc online as well as onward booking. There were other issues like if you were running a hot tap if you then ran another hot or cold tap the hot water system would airlock in the kitchen. So until the air found its way out, about a day later, we had to fill the washing up bowl from the bathroom. There should be written info on this somewhere in the property. We did notice in the guest book that several previous guests had complained about problems and having to call out the caretaker. We are normally the sort of guest that adjusts if things arnt quite right but on this occasion it was not possible and, due to the 2 reasons above, we left the property 2 days early on Thursday 11th April. Regards Andrew Howlett

Mr Makuyana August 2018

“The venue was great and we had a wonderful experience.”

The accommodation met our expectations and we will certainly come back again to the same venue. Our kids loved every minute of it and can’t wait for another summer holiday. Although these are not big issues we found the supply of black bins and toilet rolls was not sufficient. We ran out a day later otherwise all was very good for us

- Mr Makuyana, August 2018
Mrs Ford August 2018

“The location was perfect .”

The cottage assess difficult to access with a week luggage.The smell of carpets and furnishings that had not been cleaned as dogs were allowed in the property.They had to be cleaned before we could sit on them.The owner also needs to check the beds and replace both mattresses as they are badly stained and they tried to cover my one with a quilt and dirty mattress proctector.

- Mrs Ford, August 2018
Mrs Butler June 2018

“We had a peaceful relaxing comfortable holiday.”

Perfectly placed for tavistock, liskaerd and plymouth we even went to looe and boscastle. Accommodation was clean and comfortable with the biggest bed we've been in like sleeping in a cloud! Everything was provided for even towels and spare loo rolls. Fully equipt kitchen spacious and easy to navigate with milk and a biscuit provided on arrival. We even used the BBQ twice. After 15 nights in hospital and a close family bereavement it was a very welcome break, just what we were looking for. We both enjoyed the accommodation and would definately like to return.

- Mrs Butler, June 2018
Miss Luckhurst June 2018

“The accomodation was extremely clean and well equiped, a real home from home.”

We particularly appreciated the thought that had been taken with the decor and furnishing. The beds were also extremely comfortable. Overall we would recommend this accomodation to friends and family.

About the location

CALLINGTON

Tavistock 9 miles; Launceston 11.5 miles.

Callington is a Cornish market town, rich in mining heritage and overlooked by Kit Hill, the highest point in the area, donated to the people of Cornwall by Prince Charles to celebrate the birth of Prince William. From the top of Kit Hill there are fabulous views across south-east Cornwall as far as Plymouth Sound. Callington is set in the heart of the Tamar Valley, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and offers a good selection of shops, inns and cafes, as well as being the home of Ginsters Cornish pasties. A few miles away, the quaint village of Calstock clings to the steep banks of the river Tamar and is dominated by the splendid Calstock Railway Viaduct, a giant 11-arched stone construction supporting one of Britain’s most picturesque branch lines running through the Tamar Valley. Other interesting places along the river are Cotehele, a beautiful historic house and gardens owned by the National Trust with a small quay and inn, and Morwhellam Quay, a theme park that staged a living history production for the BBC and where visitors can explore the rich mining heritage and watch blacksmiths, potters and craftsmen at work. The pannier market town of Tavistock is only nine miles from Callington and is well worth a visit on your way to a day’s walk on Dartmoor. A splendid base to explore south Cornwall and West Devon.
