“The house is clean and contemporary with minimal fuss.”

The beds are comfortable even though two of the rooms are tight for space which means there is no additional furniture for storage and no chairs in any of the bedrooms other than a small wardrobe. The property is naturally light and when the sun shines the kitchen diner area has a warm friendly feel about it, this the best space in the house. ...

The beds are comfortable even though two of the rooms are tight for space which means there is no additional furniture for storage and no chairs in any of the bedrooms other than a small wardrobe. The property is naturally light and when the sun shines the kitchen diner area has a warm friendly feel about it, this the best space in the house. The kitchen needs more kitchen utensils, we bought a peeler from the local co-op and left it for other rentals. A roasting tin and a big cooking pot would be useful too. The sitting room is big with plenty of space for everyone. Some throws/ blankets would be a nice addition to make it more comfortable, at the moment is feels as if it is a practical room rather than a room designed for comfort. The location is great easy walk to the shops and beach and good walks from the door. Easy access to Par train station making it easy for train journeys to St Austel, Newquay Penzance etc. Lots to do in the local area. The house it self is ok I wouldn't be rushing back to book it if there was a more homely property available in the same area.

“On arrival our impression was that the property had not been fully cleaned prior to our arrival.”

The floor in the lounge needed mopping as there were smears and marks on it, the tiles in the kitchen above the hob had not been wiped and grease marks were running down them and also on the inside of the glass door of the oven. Upstairs there were rusty brown rings on the bathroom floor where the toilet brush holder was kept and the front bedroom with the single beds had some dead flies on the beds and floor. The information folder said that a welcome pack of fresh milk, tea, coffee and biscuits was provided for our arrival, but none was provided. Also, the garden area is beginning to look untidy compared tp the photo's on the website because the gravelled areas are becoming over grown with weeds. We did not contact the housekeeper regarding the issues with cleaning as the information folder stated that a visit by her would incur a charge of £25.

Hello I contacted the customer to explain their concerns. This was an oversight by the cleaner, she had cleaned the property but had forgotten to go back a do a refresh clean because it was the end of the season. We ask customers to contact the cleaner directly if they are not happy with the property. The contact number is in the welcome pack, customers will not be charged for a visit if they require the cleaner. This is the 1st time this has happened and is not a regular occurrence.

“Lovely cottage, very clean and in an excellent location.”

The details included the availability of a high chair, but this cottage did not have one. OK for me as I checked in advance and brought my own, but could cause an issue if you were unaware.

“Saints way cottage was beautifully presented, great location and very comfortable and spacious for 6 people.”

My only concern was the lack of cooking utensils and specifically dishes and trays suitable for the oven. Would recommend and consider booking again in the future.

“Ready for a return visit”

Beautiful house. bigger inside than the pictures suggested. Located in a lovely village with great amenities.Lovely well stocked butchers and a delightful community run general store. The fish and chip shop and thai takeaway were well worth a visit and situated only a minutes walk from the property, you can come back and wait while they cook your food fresh. Lots to see and do in the area. can walk to the train station in Par and take the train to St Ives or many other places. Can also walk to the beach and if feeling adventurous, take the coastal path to Fowey. The house was well equipped throughout. The addition of some serving dishes in the kitchen would have been great, but we managed. The beds were comfy and beautifully made and the garden was a lovely place for eating and drinking. Would definetely rebook this property if we return to the area.

“Nice house in a lovely village tucked away from the main road.”

A few niggles could be easily resolved. Ensuite toilet and downstairs toilet, flushing issues needs some tlc as water carrys on flushing. Weeds in garden. Previous reviews have reported lack of itensils etc in kitchen - this needs sorting. No proper baking tray, no measuring jug, no serving dishes etc so lovely cooking faculties but lacks items in cupboard to cook with! Dogs not allowed upstairs or on sofas which is fine for us bit perhaps provide throws to be sure etc. Nice dog gate on stairs but hasnt been fitted properly so comes away from wall. Slight musty smell in ensuite when we arrived. If these items were addressed would be perfect as its in a lovely locations. If these were attended to we would love to book again

“The cottage was beautifully new and clean.”

The first impression as you walked through the door was "wow". All the attractions were easily reached, the longest drive we did, was about 45mins to Padstow and the village had everything you could want. One or two little niggles - there was nowhere in either bathroom to hang wet towels, we were fortunate the weather was fantastic during our stay so we could hang the towels on the line. The lock on the family bathroom door did not catch and the ensuite bedroom door kept opening. Minor problems that did not spoil our holiday in any way. All in all, a great place to stay. Would thoroughly recommend.

“The cottage was wonderful, the glowing description of it was well deserved.”

We were particularly taken by the local sandy, dog friendly beach that wasn't crowded and a pleasure to use. Local pubs, shops etc. were lovely but the was also nearby large supermarkets for good value food shopping. We have already recommended Sykes to a friend to try and are looking to book our holiday next year.

About the location

TYWARDREATH

Fowey 3.3 miles; St Austell 6.3 miles.

The pretty, historic Cornish village of Tywardreath, meaning ‘The House on the Strand’, lies in the heart of Daphne du Maurier country and features in her book of the same name. St Andrew’s, the village church, is said to have the best peal of bells in the area, while the village has a lively community, centred round its excellent pubs and range of shops. There are several safe, sandy beaches close to the village, with a variety of watersports and leisure activities available. Par, a small, china clay port with a dog friendly sandy beach is a fifteen minute walk from the village or 5 minutes in the car, home to a main line railway station. Polkerris Beach, a 30 minute walk or a 5 minute drive away, has a beachside restaurant, pub and watersports centre. The attractive waterside village of Fowey is just three miles away, from where there are some dramatic cliff walks to Gribbin Head, passing through much of du Maurier’s familiar landscape. There are many family attractions in the area, including Mevagissey and Charlestown harbours, the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Tywardreath is a village that will appeal to families and those keen to explore the rich heritage and gorgeous coastline of South Cornwall.
