  • "What an awesome week away in this beautiful holiday apartment."

    No 1Cheyne Beach is so spacious and airy with lovely decor. The kitchen is fantastic and the whole place is spotlessly clean. The veiws outside the rear of the property are amazing. Quite possibly the best sykes property we have stayed in over the last ten years. The location is great too. The town, harbour and coastal path just a stroll away. Woolacombe Beach, just 6 mile away is gorgeous and our border collie Jac loved it there. All in all a fabulous stay and we will definitely be back. Many thanks Kobe McNamara.

    Thanks Kobe for such a lovely review. We are pleased that you had a great week and look forward to seeing you again. Property Owner

  • "Very nice apartment in a central location."

    Very newly decorated and lovely furniture and beds. Great view of the sea from the living areas. Quiet. The bedrooms were by the road and as below ground level meant little air came in through the windows and so were stuffy. The third bedroom didn’t even have a window at all. Felt slightly damp in the bedrooms. This was the only negative and would put us off slightly from booking again

    Hi Mark We are sorry you felt that there was insufficient air in the bedrooms. We haven’t experienced this ourselves and stay at the apartment quite frequently. As regards the slight damp feeling, I wonder if this is because the heating hadn’t been on for a while. I will ensure we put it on the day before guests arrive in future to prevent this, but again we haven’t experienced this. Property Owner

  • "Beautifully furnished and very comfortable."

    We have a concern that the property description refers to steps down to the rocks. These steps are extremely dangerous and in fact there is a sign saying that they should not be used. We think that the property description should be amended as this access was an attractive feature to us. The gate at the top of the steps should be padlocked as one morning the gate had blown open and the warning sign was not visible.

    Dear Victoria, We are sorry that you felt that the description of the steps on the Sykes website to be inaccurate - however, it was clearly stated that people use the steps at their own risk. In light of your feedback we have instructed Sykes to amend the description which they have now done. Since your stay, the steps have been cemented so they are no longer loose or uneven. We are glad you found the apartment well furnished and very comfortable. S Property Owner

  • "The holiday home and view were stunning, could not have asked for anything more!"

    ! Only download side of the property was the parking BUT we got lucky with sports outside the apartments xx

    Hi Kerry We do provide parking (but I acknowledge it is a small space, which is why we have stated that it is only suitable for a small or medium car). We have also suggested that guests use the general car parks in the centre of Ilfracombe which are only a 5 minute walk from the apartment. I'm glad the rest of the apartment met your needs.
