"This was our second year staying at 21 Alverton Street."
We absolutely love the cottage. The location is central to everything that Penzance has to offer. 5mins from the local kids park, numerous takeaways and a 10min walk to the promenade, which has a classic seaside arcade along with fish and chip shop.
The cottage it's self is furnished to a high standard, beds are really comfortable and all amenities work fine such as shower, washing machine, toilets etc.
If you are staying for the first time I do reccomend bringing some earplugs as the Friday, Saturday night can get a bit loud due to the centralised town location. Overall experience though is brilliant, definitely reccomend this to anyone looking for a small family holiday in Penzance.

"We were very pleased with the accommodation although it was a bit on the small side, it was adequate for the 2 of us."
The cottage was in an excellent location very close to the shopping area with a frequent bus service to other resorts. There was a really nice park within a few minutes walk where we took our border collie every day and then a few minutes further to the beach. It was a most enjoyable holiday and we liked Penzance very much
Thank you very much for your feedback. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your holiday and everything that Penzance and it’s environs has to offer. Property Owner

Comfortable and cosy and a lovely place to come back to after a day exploring. A short walk to bus and train station if you don't want to drive and and if you enjoy walking as we do there are lots of gorgeous coastal walks to enjoy very close by.

Although the kitchen was small it was very well equipped for cooking with plenty of crockery and glassware etc.
Great location with the added bonus of a parking space outside. We could quite happily have stayed another week and would definitely consider booking this property again

"What a beautiful property."
Everything so clean and top spec. Brilliant location for shops, pubs, shopping and restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back. Just one negative (but won't stop us coming back!!), shower is very slow and perhaps needs attention. All in all 10 out of 10....Amazing place Helen XX

"Cottage was lovely, on arrival it was very clean and had some lovely touches such as fresh bread, milk butter and biscuits."
Our dog even had her own hand made treats. Sadly we had no working shower the whole week we were there, and for 2 days no water.
So our holiday was some what marred by not being able to shower for the whole week.
Unfortunately due to a lack of customer service given by Both Sykes and the property manager it took 3 weeks of nearly daily phones calls to sort out our issue. Shame we weren’t able to speak directly to the owner to sort out this mater rather than going through an intermediary.
Thank you for your feedback. We want all of our guests to have a thoroughly relaxing and enjoyable holiday in our property and were very sorry to learn of the problems experienced during your stay. As soon as we were notified by Sykes Cottages of the problems with the shower, we immediately investigated and did everything possible to rectify the problem as quickly as was physically possible. It turned out to be a large water leak, outside the property, which was rectified within 2 days, and which we know no longer poses a problem. Thank you again for your feedback, we hope you will visit us again soon. Property Owner

"Absolutely loved our family holiday at 21 alverton Street."
The cottage was cosy, and situated perfectly mid town and not to far from beach / promenade. The kids loved the play park that was 5mins away and lots of shops & bakers very close. Sennen cove and praa sands both withing 30mins drive ( 2 top beaches). We will definitely be coming back here again in the near future!

"We had a lovely time at 21 Alverton Street."
The location was spot on short stroll to the shops one way , or past some lovely Victorian houses and through a smashing old park to the seafront. Where you can have a coffee overlooking the outdoor Lido what more can you want.
Penzance was a great location, ideal for visiting many coastal jems nearby.
The cottage was excellent, clean, well equipped with quality furnishings. Workspace in the kitchen was a bit limited but not a big problem.
Parking outside the front door was brilliant.
We would love to return in the near future, and would defiantly recommend it.

"Great little cottage!"
Really enjoyed our stay there and would highly recommend. Property is in Penzance which isn’t the most attractive part of Cornwall, but with its proximity to some of the most beautiful areas such as carbis bay and st Ives, it’s ideal. This location is of course reflected in the price of the property compared to those areas. The parking space on the property is a great luxury, and again makes the ease of exploring the areas of Cornwall a real joy - nothing worse than a long enjoyable day out and returning to your cottage and trying to find a space in the narrow roads of this part of the country, great to have outside your door!
Cottage was extremely clean, and had great facilities. Detail in morphy Richards coffee machine and kettle, m&s/Waitrose crockery didn’t go unnoticed.
Only negative would be bathroom door needs fixing onto hinges properly, unable to close without slamming which isn’t ideal in the middle of the night. Also, shower is ok, but very basic quality and poor power, so based on the standard of the rest of the property, should and could be better.
Negatives small and easy fixes. HIGHLY recommend this cottage. Thank you for a great week!

"We’d move into this charming town cottage like a shot!"
Perfectly refurbished and furnished. Suntrap courtyard at the back. A stroll into the town where the variety of shops was a treat. Just down the road round the corner one of our favourite gallerIes where a good lunch can be had. With fish merchants galore ten minutes away self-catering is a culinary indulgence. The best restaurant In the southwest, Shore, 50 metres away.
Just two niggles. There were no instructions for the central heating which seemed to come on only briefly in a morning and then kept quiet! And the operation of the flat screen fire, nothing more really than a fancy convector heater, was a total mystery as its instructions were in a form of English that was incomprehensible. Too fiddly for purpose. Being warm is a top priority when staying anywhere and we all feel cold in different ways. Renters need to be able to fix their own times and temperatures for heating properties.
