  • "The house is beautiful but I found it very cold."

    The room thermostat was so far up on the wall that I was unable to reach it. I telephoned the owner who said that it would be turned up remotely. There was a gas fire in the living room but I could not get it to ignite, believe me I tried over 20 times! There were a lot of windows without curtains which meant that I felt quite vulnerable. The only bedroom which had curtains did not have any heating. Regrettably, I cut my stay short by 24 hours.

    Thank you for your feedback Mrs Walker and I am very sorry to hear that you were cold. Further to our conversation at the time the temperature was turned up to 23° and the cleaner did check the fire after your visit and was able to start it without problem. As we discussed on the phone I can appreciate that it's not the easiest fire to start so I am very sorry that it was difficult for you. The only room without curtains is the room with shuttered windows and every room has a radiator as part of the central heating. There is also an oil filled freestanding radiator in the blue bedroom cupboard if anyone should need extra heat. The weather in Cornwall has been particularly cold recently and following your feedback we have ensured that the heating has been increased for future guests. We are glad you liked the house and hope that you will come back again in the future. Loretta Property Owner

  • "Third stay at Coth Skyber and another lovely holiday, despite the weather not being that good."

    Particularly impressed with the cleanliness throughout the property. Also liked the well maintained garden. Great positioning for both north and south coastlines - our lab loves the beaches at Hayle and Gwithian. We also had a couple of trips up to the Star and met some lovely people in there. We hope to be back again in the New Year.

    Thank you so much for your kind feedback. We're always delighted to welcome repeat guests to Coth Skyber and glad you continue to enjoy all that the area has to offer (especially the Star :-) We will pass on your kind comments to our cleaner as well. Best regards Property Owner

    We loved the garden both my children and dog spent a lot of time outside . The beds were very comfortable. We loved the kitchen and living room it had plenty of space to eat and relax. The bath tub was very nice to relax in after a day out. The location is perfect, we enjoyed going to the beach which was only a short drive away. I would recommend going to the pub just at the top of the road ,we had a nice lunch there and the portions were massive.

    Many thanks for your kind feedback and we're delighted you had a such a great holiday based in Coth Skyber. We are staying in the house ourselves next week and looking forward to a few meals in the Star Inn - home from home . We hope to welcome you back in Coth Skyber again soon. Property Owner

  • "We enjoyed our holiday at Coth Skyber."

    We would just like to say it would have been improved by smarter seating outside and perhaps a tidy up of the downstairs shower room. Also perhaps the gate to the street could be made easier. We are 2 ladies in our late seventy's and found it awkward to open and close. I am just being honest about our thoughts but we did have a lovely holiday and enjoyed the location. If we were to come back another year we would definitely consider this property again.

    Many thanks for your feedback and we're glad you enjoyed your holiday and would consider staying at Coth Skyber again . We agree that the downstairs shower could do with a refresh and that is on our maintenance list for this year . We prioritised putting in the new bathroom upstairs which was a big investmane and has been very well received. Thank you for letting us know about the gate and we will get our maintenance man to have a look at that and adjust it. We hope to welcome you back again soon. Property Owner

  • "A lovely cottage to stay in with plenty of space for everyone, it was a great location with easy access to St Ives (via the train), Gwithian & Hayle."

    A visit to the Star Inn on Thursday evening for their quiz is definitely recommend as is the food! The new bathroom upstairs was a surprise (need to update photos) however the sink is a bit wobbly on the pedestal stand, perhaps making it somewhat unsafe? We also had a few dirty kitchen pots, pans & utensils which needed a thorough clean before they could be used but appreciate that this could be from previous clients to the cottage. Apart from those little ‘niggles’ it is a superb cottage & we would definitely recommend it & return another year! Thank you

    Many thanks for your kind feedback. We apologise for the issue with the bathroom sink which we are aware of and the contractor is booked in to fix this. We have also reminded our cleaner of the need to double check all pots and pans each week. We agree the local pub is fab, and will be delighted to welcome you back to Coth Skyber anytime.

    Coth Skyber was a lovely base and we very quickly felt it was like a ‘home from home’ for us. All the rooms were very well equipped and spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed, and again very large. The utility room was great for sorting ourselves out when returning from trips, and the garden had plenty to explore for Ruby. We also really liked St Erth, and it was perfect for visits to north and south parts of south eastern Cornwall. Hayle and Gwithian beaches are idyllic for dogs and long bracing walks. The locals were all very friendly and we enjoyed several visits to the Star. We are planning to be back in Coth Skyber in April next year

  • "Cottage location very good ."

    Plenty of room in cottage but needs updating , poor outside lighting , we had to use candles to sit outside at night. Beds could do with being a bit more comfortable. We struggled to sleep at night due to extreme hot weather , there were no fans in the house , plenty of heaters in the wardrobes though.. But we did enjoy our stay there and would recommend location.

    Many thanks for your feedback and we're glad that you enjoyed your holiday and you appreciated the fantastic location. Thanks for your comments on outside lighting . We do try and keep our light pollution to a minimum and the clear nights in Cornwall are amazing away from the city lights - but we will ensure all the existing outside lights are working. Bed are a very personal taste and inevitably it's impossible to get one mattress which suits everyone. The 2 singles were replaced last year and we have a rotating replacement on all our beds every couple of years. We don't mind getting feedback that Cornwall is too hot !! But we will add fans to the property for next year as the trend currently does feel like temperatures are increasing and we appreciate that an old stone property does retain the heat well. We hope to welcome you back again soon to Coth Skyber. Property Owner

    The cottage itself has everything you need for your holiday. The cottage is light and airy with a lovely garden perfect for children to play in while adults can watch on from the comfy living area. We were a group of two parents, two grandparents and two young children (3 &8) and we all said it was our favourite location to stay in this part of Cornwall having previously stayed in Porthleven, Marazion and Hayle. The branch line to St Ives being a 15 minute walk away is a massive bonus as is being able to drive to St Michael's Mount in a few minutes. We loved Hayle for the 3 amazing ice cream shops, but preferred the quietness of being able to relax I the quiet village. There are lovely local walks, particularly along the river Hayle towards the RSPB reserve. We can't wait to return!

    Many thanks for your kind feedback, we're so happy you enjoyed your holiday in St Erth.

    The accommodation was lovely and clean. The rear car parking area was easily accessible, after working out the bolt, and key collection via key code from the box at the back door was easy. Very spacious rooms and cosy gas fire/central heating with access to manually adjust the temperature was great. Had a good nights sleep and enjoyed excellent weather all week. The best weather we've experienced in Cornwall, for a long time. Considering it was the beginning of February! Our dog enjoyed the garden and although we couldn't make full use of it, I'm sure if we visited at a different time of year we would. St Erth is a lovely little village which is very central and provides access to lots of different places within a short drive, Hayle, Helston, Penzance and St Ives.

    Absolutely loved the peaceful location in the village of St Erth. You could hear a pin drop at night and the dark skies were just fabulous, we’ve never seen so many stars. The cottage had everything we needed and the village pub was great, just a few metres from the front door. The food was great and we were made to feel really welcome. A coffee table was the only thing missing in the living room so hopefully Santa might bring one for next year. We’re hoping to come back next summer as we had such a lovely break and we were ideally placed for all the places we love to visit.

    Cleanliness found satisfactory. The only major problem was the worn out mattresses. There are two double beds, both with ridged frames that make a noise with every movement and two single beds, one with slats (some up the wrong way) and the other a ridged broken bed with a distorted frame! These also had worn out mattresses! To add to the problem only thick, synthetic winter duvets were provided to complete the discomfort. A restful stay? I think not! All of these beds are well past their best. A note was left at the property informing of the above. I would have liked to contact Sykes outside of a review but it isn't made possible. It is also noted that only positive reviews seem get published so I don't expect to see this one any time soon!

    Many thanks for your feedback and we're glad you enjoyed the size and location of Coth Skyber, and were happy with the cottage cleaning. It is unfortunate that you waited until your holiday was over before contacting Sykes or ourselves as we would have welcomed the opportunity to improve your experience . It was a very hot week and we would have provided lighter bedding had you asked - our cleaner lives very close and would have happily popped in. Beds are obviously a very personal matter . As you will note our recent guest feedback has been very positive about the beds :- "the bed in the darker of the two bedrooms was really comfortable! Loved the duvet and the pillows - so soft!", "The beds and pillows were very comfy", "Really appreciated the comfortable mattresses and sofas", "its the first time i have actually had a good nights sleep, away on holiday, so thank you". That said we welcome all feedback (which is indeed published !) and will endeavour to improve this area further for all our guests going forwards. We hope to welcome you again to Coth Skyber.

    It was not possible to walk anywhere safely with a double buggy. Heated towel rails would have been nice. Damp towels aren’t pleasant. I tried to get the heating on once and the thermostat kept saying the temperature was at or over 23 degrees there was no way this could have been possible. Having said all that it was a nice cottage. The beds and pillows were very comfy. Also there were lots of things I didn’t expect in the kitchen… foil, cling film, kitchen towel. The owner was very nice and accommodating and the cleaner was very nice too.

We do include in the cottage info pack lots of information about the local walks (which are one of the particular attractions of St Erth) but appreciate that Cornish lanes and paths are not always well suited to double buggies !

It's always difficult to know what to bring when you go self-catering but everything we needed was provided from towels to kitchen roll and dishwasher tablets. We found the cottage easily but came in at the front which is difficult to back in and out of so for the rest of the holiday we accessed the property from the Private Road at the back.

There are skittles and karting for the family, and for golfers, one of the best links golf courses in Cornwall is at Lelant, a mile out of Hayle. But the jewel of Hayle is the three miles of golden sandy beach, with fantastic surfing at Gwithian where there is a surf shop, lessons and hire of equipment. For the less energetic there are beach cafes where you can take in the views and watch the children play. As Hayle is centrally located you can easily access many other places by either public transport (there is a train station at Hayle) or driving. St. Ives is a short drive away where you can wander through the narrow streets, visit the art galleries or admire the colourful sub tropical gardens. St Ives harbour has its own small fishing fleet and there are plentiful boat trips skippered by locals keen to showcase the best that Cornwall has to offer, whether it be seal watching at Seal Island, a couple of hours' mackerel fishing or a relaxing trip to Godrevy Lighthouse. Within easy reach of Hayle is the Minack Theatre (35 mins), Falmouth Maritime Museum (40 mins), Eden Project (40 mins), St. Michael’s Mount (15 mins) and many other fantastic tourist attractions for dry or wet days.
