• "The hosts, Sue and Andy were very welcoming and friendly, but also aware of giving us our own space."

  They provided a lovely welcome pack and there was everything we needed to make it feel like a real home from home. The view from the balcony was stunning, and it was an ideal base for exploring the area. We had a lovely week and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

  A lovely balcony to sit on with an amazing view, together with a pretty garden to sit in to soak up the sun! Sue and Andy made us very welcome and kindly provided a delicious cream tea and a bottle of prosecco to enjoy. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home!

• "A very clean bright and well equipped flat, with beautiful views and in easy access of town, busses and trains."

  Dawlish is however very hilly and might not be suitable for people who are disabled or unfit. The property is on two levels with stairs. We were welcomed with a cream tea, bubbly waiting in the fridge , and flowers in the lounge. A really nice touch.

  Owners Sue & Andy were really friendly & helpful. Accommodation was excellent & well equipped & great place to explore whether locally (short cut to town) or farther afield. Weather was great too. We've been to 3 4plus* Sykes places these last 6 months & this was the best!

• "Before arriving I contacted Sue & was filled with the details of how to let ourselves in as she would not be around to meet us."

  Everything was fine in gaining access & the property was spotlessly clean. There was a welcome tray in the kitchen & a bottle of Proseco in the fridge. Wow! The scones, jam & cream were lovely. We could not have asked for more. On our departure day we decided to leave early because of Friday traffic & were not able to say personally how much we had enjoyed our stay at Exe View & to say thank you for everything. So through yourselves please express our gratitude & thanks, we had a lovely week & weather very kind.

  Immaculately clean, comfortable with amazing views from the balcony. The kitchen is equipped with everything you will need for your stay, and I must say, that this is the first place we have stayed at, were you can take anything from any drawer, cupboards or worktop, find it perfectly clean, and use straight away! Lots of people say that we will be back, we found ourselves wishing we could just stay a little longer. Many thanks to both Sue and Andy. Robert and Elizabeth, Dauntsey, Wiltshire.

• "We were absolutely delighted with our stay at Exe View."

  The owners were very helpful and we cannot recommend them and their property highly enough. However the same cannot be said of Sykes Cottages. We were unable to use the week we originally booked and found Sykes wouldn't refund or change accommodation. We were lucky that the owners and ourselves were able to change the week (the only one available). We found Sykes inflexible and won't use them again. But the accommodation - First Class !!
