  • "We loved our stay at Crystals ."

    It was clean and well maintained. We loved that our decked garden area was very private and enjoyed sitting out in the sunshine one afternoon. The house was smaller than the photos showed but it was cosy and all we needed. The shower ran lovely and hot , which was fantastic as the end of September was bringing a chill. I would have loved a softer pillow and a thicker duvet but I put on the bedroom heater instead. Lovely area and good to have some walks from the house as we had my dog. I would definitely recommend and possibly stay there again ( though I do like to try new places)

  • "Good location, friendly locals, but would rent elsewhere."

    Generally clean but polished surfaces eg chair arms, were sticky. Bedding and cushion covers tired/worn/torn. Double mattress lumpy/uncomfortable. Broadband very slow: TV reception patchy and internet often unusable. Before trip, struggled to contact Sykes, to identify and resolve my typing error on booking form, which Sykes had failed to compare with my previous bookings. Would not risk a repetition; will not use Sykes again.

  • "Spotless place with an equally spotless pool."

    Cream tea and milk was a nice touch
