“An excellently appointed house on 3 levels with all bedrooms having wonderful views of the harbour.”

Two large decking terraces catching sun all day.plenty of outdoor furniture, but a parasol would have been appreciated and a gas rather than a charcoal bbq as we didn’t think this was safe on decking.

Two large decking terraces catching sun all day.plenty of outdoor furniture, but a parasol would have been appreciated and a gas rather than a charcoal bbq as we didn’t think this was safe on decking. A few more black bags are necessary for waste and bedding The key safe could be better located at the top of the steps rather than at the bottom (26 steps!)

“We have stayed at this house 4 or 5 times and it’s an amazing house in a fantastic location.”

Sykes organisation and communication was first rate. Thank you

Mrs Leach April 2021

“The house was absolutely stunning as were the views.”

We had a wonderful week. One thing I might like to see invested in was perhaps a king size bed in the double rooms. Being 6 months pregnant it was a bit of a squeeze & I ended up using one of the other bedrooms but other than that it was perfect.

“The pink house was excellent, perfect location, clean and really spacious.”

I couldn't fault this place, we can't wait to come back. This was a perfect holiday, thank you.

Mr Sutcliffe September 2020

“Amazing holiday couldn't fault a thing However please dint be put off by the neighbour shouting at everyone from the apartments opposite very rude to most regarding parking.”

That takes nothing from holiday or the place as everyone else so helpful and very friendly Thankyou

“We found the en suite bathroom extremely small and it got very damp.”

The second double bedroom at the top of the house was undoubtedly the best room but no ensuite but a large shared bathroom. The property was in a wonderful spot for the town and fantastic views. A little bit scruffy in places, the kitchen had clearly been a blueish colour as quite a lot of paint is wearing off, but a big kitchen for all our needs non the less overall I would recommend it as it was in an amazing situation.

“Fantastic location within Mevagissey with the bonus of parking.”

We had a great stay, comfortable And the house had everything we needed, it is very well equipped. We read some reviews before our visit that said it was cold, we were there during Winter and in storms and didn’t find it cold. There are a few things things to point out which hopefully the owners can address. It is damp in one bedroom under the garage, there is a dehumidifier and it collected a lot of water which solved the problem, but as the house had been empty for a while before our visit when we arrived it felt damp and musty on arrival. The house really needs a good clean, although work tops and bathroom fittings were clean, walls, doors, skirtings etc were not and didn’t look like they have been cleaned for a long time. I’m not an obsessive cleaner but for the price would expect a clean property. One of the bathrooms hasn’t been finished, the fittings are lovely but door and woodwork hasn’t been painted and is scuffed and dirty, just a small thing but noticeable against a lovely fitted bathroom. Don’t let the above put you off, I’m just noting so the owners can address, we had a brilliant time and enjoyed our stay

“Family holiday- October half term”

All in all a lovely place to stay. But a couple of points to take into consideration aswell. Views are amazing. The house itself is very well equipped. Kitchen has more pots & pans than you can even imagine which was great for us as we came as a family of 7. Towels supplied. Separate washing machine &’tumble drier- none of this washer drier all in one rubbish! Set out across 3 levels so lots of stairs & no good for anyone who struggles with this. On arrival we noticed that there was a fair amount of dust around the place- around the TV’s, mantelpiece. For a 4 star accommodation it was a bit disappointing in that respect. The house gets very cold, very quickly. Lots of extra heaters around the place which yes ok is useful for extra heat but we then realised that it was due to the majority of the central heating radiators being purposely turned off. Radiators that did work need bleeding desperately. Kids had to sit with jumpers on & blankets over them on a couple of the nights. Wifi keeps dropping in & out, not working consistently. Id give the whole experience here a 7/10. Maybe I’m being picky but the few things mentioned above could have been avoided to make the stay a little more enjoyable- especially as the cost of it was over £1300.

“Fabulous house in a great location with lovely views of the village and coastline.”

House very well equipped with all we needed.

Mrs Franklin August 2019

“This property has a 5star rating which was not accurate.”

The views were stunning, the bedrooms were clean and comfortable except two of the single beds sheets did not fit the beds properly. Every morning the sheet would be practically off the beds. One of the mattresses in the twin room had stains on it which was uncovered with the sheet coming off nightly. There is a request to strip the beds for the housekeeper which we did, stripping mine which was the other twin there was a large stain on the duvet. The downstairs has a smell to it that no amount of air freshener can hide . The kitchen cupboards need a good clean inside and out, and a lot of the equipment needs replacing eg rusty tin openers and the thing some people use on top of there frying pan was covered in grease. This property could be stunning if it had some TLC spent on it. And lastly having to take all your recycling away with you is not 5star treatment. When you look forward to something for nearly a year and treat your family so you can all be together it was a disappointment. However we had a nice time together.

- Mrs Franklin, August 2019

Thank you for your feedback, I am sorry you did not feel the property was up to standard. All the duvets have been replaced with new ones and sheets have been replaced also. The kitchen and all it's contents have been given a spring clean. The mattresses always have clean thick protectors and the mattresses are all still fairly new, if there is any staining this will be addressed. Sykes owner relations

“Very nice house for our family week in Cornwall.”

Great location with stunning views across Mevagissey. We would highly recommend the Pink House and I would also recommend Sykes cottages. This is the 3rd time with Sykes and we have found them very helpful and efficient.

“Great stay”

Took my family and friends for a weeks stay at this lovely property. Beautifully maintained inside with soft coastal theme. Fabulous view of the town harbour outside in the decked area. Close to the town and yet quiet and peaceful to retreat to for sleep. Large well equipped kitchen and full washing and drying facilities in the garage utility area. Dog friendly and well positioned for walking . Do bear in mind it’s a hilly town and there are two flight of stairs at the house but we loved this as it kept us fit and slim. Even had lovely neighbours. We were sad to leave. Would book again. Highly recommended for family group .

“Have just returned from a week stay at the wonderful Pink House.”

This is an exceptional holiday home with breath taking views. The house is extremely comfortable with everything you would wish for. Really friendly neighborurs. Amazing outdoor space where I spent most of my time, would not hesitate to return

Mrs Culmer May 2019

“We arrived to be overjoyed that the house was just as predicted on the website, if not better.”

Well maintained and very clean with lovely soft coastal décor. The rear decking was a joy to relax on and watch out over the Sea and the Town of Mevagissywas very pleasant. I did have cause to call the owner and she rectified a very simple issue and it did not impact on our stay in any way. She was very pleasant and helpful . The Kitchen was well stocked with utensils, Microwave etc and not once did we feel at a loss of anything to do locally. Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Heligan being close by just added to the House's convenient position. Would definitely recommend this premises to friends and family. Only one issue which was beyond the owners control, the useful information does say that there is recycling points at Tesco or Asda in Saint Austell, which was correct a few months ago, however, when we tried to do this on our way home, we were told by Store staff there that this facility has been removed and recycling has to go to a central area in St Austell but it closed at 4 pm each day. But this was no ones fault, just thought it would be useful to mention for the owner to update the information board. I would return every season if Annual Work Leave allowed! Thank you Jane and Sykes cottages . One of the best holidays I have ever had.

Mr Grant April 2019

“We loved staying in the Pink House, the view is just sensational.”

The house has everything you need, nice comfy beds, good quality furniture etc. Mevagissey is lovely, lots of places to eat and drink without being too overcrowded with tourists. Neighbours were super friendly and helpful. My only niggle is, considering this is high end accommodation, it would have been nice to have enough dishwasher tablets and toilet roll to last the week.

Mr Brown December 2018

“The Pink House is high-end self-catering accommodation in good condition with high specification facilities.”

When researching on Google Maps the property is located in typical suburban residential street but don't be fooled by its residential street location, the views from the living and sleeping areas are directly over the harbor and you can watch the boats going to and fro. In addition there are wide vistas of the sea and coastline all the way to Fowey, simply wonderful. You're only 10 minutes walk to the harbor with its many pubs and eateries, and access to the coastal path, for a week's stay you can easily park your car when you arrive and not use it until departure. A wonderful place to relax and unwind.

Mrs Saundry December 2018

“We have just returned from the most wonderful holiday ever.”

“Pink House really does have breath taking views of the harbour and coastline towards Fowey.”

We were very comfortable during our stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this cottage.

Mrs Bannister September 2018

“The view from this property was amazing, could easily spend an hour just looking at the harbour view.”

Pity you have to use the tiny streets of Mevagissey to reach the property, would hate to attempt the traffic run in August.
