Bay View House

46 Customer Reviews

• "Lovely house in a great location, well presented."

  A couple of suggestions on how it might be made even better... 1) Make it more homely by hanging more pictures, wall clocks, etc. 2) Dimmable lighting, particularly in the living room where the only options are either dazzling brightness or a single corner spotlight. 3) Provide lower tog duvets for those hot summer nights. 4) an outside light in the enclosed garden area. Thanks for a great week!

• "Excellent house spacious and very clean."

  Well maintained and feels like home from home. The view of the bay from the house is stunning and such a quiet location but close to a fantastic beach and nearby Bistro and pub both also with stunning views. House is ideal for dogs with an enclosed safe garden.

• "This is a perfect place to relax and unwind with spectacular sea views."

  The cottage is extremely clean and comfortable with a secure garden to the rear which our dog enjoyed playing in. Although the owner is on hand should you need him we had all the privacy we needed and were very happy with our two week stay. We look forward to staying here again.

  Thank you for your lovely feedback Mr Dixon. We look forward to seeing you all again. Property Owner

• "It is not a 5 minute walk to the beach, it’s closer to 20."

  It is not pet friendly, more pet tolerant. Asking for extra payment per pet when booking and then asking people to hoover the house at the end of the holiday, leaving no trace of their pet makes me question what we paid the £40 for when we booked. Also, the Wi-Fi is terrible, it buffers all the time, even BBC iPlayer on the TV was unwatchable. The fact that you live in a house attached to this property should form part of the listing. We booked what looked like a detached home, in its own grounds, only to find it’s nothing of the sort. The main photo of the house in the property details is deceptive, it cuts the left off which is where the owners park their cars and walk past the windows of the house. The water situation is not acceptable, having to wait mid-shower, covered in soap and shampoo for the water to come back on because your home gets it first is really bad. The views are amazing but the large hedge means that you struggle to see anything when seated in the sitting room. It wasn’t as we expected in terms of distance to the beach (we ended up paying £10 per day to park there) and it didn’t offer the privacy I would expect from a house advertised as detached. I think more honesty is needed in the listing.

• "This is our second visit to Bay View House Crantock."

  The house overlooks Crantock Bay and there are three pubs within walking distance. The house is super plenty of space two bathrooms, so very clean with an enclosed back garden and large front garden. The owners are friendly and quick to deal with the slightest of problems. I would highly recommend this property which is set is such a beautiful position with the coastal path within walking distance away.

• "Lovely views and spacious property."

  The sofas were so very uncomfortable though. As we were staying out of season, we were not out and about much. The tv had only a free view box, where you would expect a smart tv these days, this was very disappointing. (DVD player, but no dvds) Lovely managers. Beds were comfortable. Would be useful to have a small shelf to put toiletries on in the en-suite. Bigger dining table, struggle to fit 5 with food on. It’s quite a small 6 seater.

  Thank you for the feedback, One of our jobs this winter is to upgrade to a smart TV. That will be in for the new season. I think sofas are personal preference as i think they are very comfortable and have been told by other guests they are too. I do apologise that you were not comfortable in the living room during your holiday. We used to have lots of dvds but were told to take them out during covid and for guests to bring their own if needed. I bigger dinning table is something we may look into in the future. Thanks for staying with us. Joe Property Owner

  The house is comfortable, clean and a pleasure to stay in. There is easy access to Crantock Beach and Polly Joke Beach and Crantock Village has 2 pubs and a quaint tea room. The Bowgie pub is within walking distance and you can eat your meal overlooking amazing views of the coast. Great walks from the house and the house is dog friendly. We would happily stay there again.

• "Bay View House is a beautiful house in a stunning location."

  Everything you need is provided and there is plenty of living space particularly on the ground floor which was great for five adults. The beds were all really comfortable too. The view from the lounge and, the two front bedrooms of the bay are fantastic. We visited in February and the house was lovely and warm and we used the log burners more for effect than because we needed the heat. Very friendly helpful owners, we are definitely planning to return.

• "Bay View House was close to perfect in every way."

  The rooms were clean, well decorated and spacious. It had every facility including a welcome bottle of wine and biscuits. The owner lived next door and was very friendly. He made it clear he was available if needed but then kept out of our way whilst we were there - perfect combination! The views from the two main bedrooms and the lounge are breathtaking. A note about a recent review we saw which said that the heating was off during the main part of the day unless you made an additional payment. This was NOT the case when we stayed in February 2019, and the house was pleasantly warm throughout at all times, even without using the log burner provided in the lounge. Will be staying there in the future.

  We’ve stayed here lots of times in the summer but in the winter it’s not good house very very cold spoke to owner who charged us more while we were there for having the heating on property is not cheap to rent and would expect to be albe to have heating on especially in the winter took my 80 year old mom who suffered due to the cold in the property very dissatisfied would not go there again

  Thank you for your comments. I am sorry to hear you found the property was colder than previous visits, I can see our team have been in contact with you following your stay. We have spoken with the owner and can confirm during the winter months the heating is on from 6am - 11pm. if you require further heating throughout the night then this can be arranged with the owner on arrival, this does not incur additional charges. Thanks Again, Sykes Cottages. Property Owner

• "Brilliant holiday!"

  Booked through another company which then became part of Sykes, a few weeks before the holiday itself. I needed to contact Sykes to confirm everything was as originally booked (e.g. dog was still included, as not clear). This was an extra job I had not anticipated. It would have been ideal if Sykes had contacted me directly/personally about the booking and change of company.
