5 Chichester Court

Lovely apartment with great views of Hope Cove.

Clean, well presented and equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay plus ideally situated in the village. Close to excellent pub, always a bonus.

We had such a lovely family holiday at 5 Chichester Court with our baby and 3.

5 year old. The apartment is in a stunning location with gorgeous views right in the centre of Hope Cove. It was clean and very comfortable with good beds and lovely big sofas. It is also super well equipped for families - all the usual things you need plus tonnes of toys, games & DVDs that were perfect for our daughter. We also appreciated the buckets, spades, nets and other things for the beach. Sure, some of the furniture is a bit tired but the price reflects that - it's good value for the area. Our only feedback would be that it would be nice to have basic washing up stuff / dishwasher tabs / spare bin bags provided. We'd highly recommend and hope to return one day!

The property was in a great location and overall we had a great time.

Hope Cove is a very friendly and welcoming place, it has two great pubs and a hotel which served great drinks, food and had great views. The staff in all these places were lovely. Overall the apartment was great, just a few things in the apartment needed attention. Could not use the cups due to them all being cracked, washing up bowl needs replacing, draws broken in main bedroom and sand in the draws in twin room. Balcony needed sweeping as muck had piled up on there. We also had an issue with another resident. Sykes were very helpful in resolving and we were given an apology and bottle of wine from the 9 guests in apartment below who had caused the issue. However this was after 4 nights of loud music, doors banging continuously, laughing and talking loudly from 11pm until 3.30am. A shame to have to add this but it it really did affect our stay.

Location cannot be beaten, minutes to the beach.

Some reviews mention lots of steps but we did this with a baby and a 2 year old without much bother. There are 3 flights of stairs to the apartment but they aren't steep. Allocated parking is a big plus. Very clean, well appointed apartment which exceeded our expectations. Again, another review had mentioned that things are a little tired and whilst it perhaps isn't all high tech (TV isn't connected to WiFi etc), cooker a little older. We found for a beach holiday it was just perfect. Rooms are very spacious and the shower to the main bedroom is excellent. We would certainly look to stay here again with a young family. There was a travel cot and a high chair in the cupboards (though coast and country informed us there wasn't so we had bought our own).

This is the first Sykes Cottage let over many years that has not been up to Sykes standards.

Although there was a folder from Coast and Country Cottages, it was general information and not specific to the premises. There was no information on the heating system and the WiFi was very intermittent. Three out of the four internal doors squeaked on opening and closing due to lack of maintenance. This took me only 5 minutes to fix using some oil. The main bathroom had a two way tap and shower system which did not properly turn from bath to shower as one or the other was always leaking. The plug in the sink leaked so one was having to keep topping up. The toilet handle had to be pumped two or three times to flush. The handle on the cutlery drawer was loose and the bottom plinth cover on the cooker kept falling loose. One of the drawer edges had been reglued but the drawer kept sticking. Someone had previously written in the diary ' needs a good deep clean' . I totally agree. Having said all this we had a good holiday. Just not up to Sykes standards

We had a wonderful week in hope cove the apartment was really comfortable and had everything we needed, with a brilliant view from the patio, the apartment is minutes from the cove, the beach and the coastal path will be booking again soon

The flat was spacious, well kept and clean.

There were plenty of useful bits including a high chair, drying rack and multiple beach toys which was great. Perfect for our family of 4.

There is everything you will need very well equipped, I am elderly so my friends would find the steps to hard but will definitely recommend to my younger friends , weather not to good but out of your control ha ha , we had a very comfortable stay thank you .

Just returned from a week at 5 Chichester Court.

The property is very nicely decorated and furnished and is very spacious. We were very lucky with the weather and were able to spend most evenings on the balcony admiring the wonderful view. As an older couple, the only downside was the number of steps to get up to the property. (about 45) Other than that, everything was perfect.

A really lovely flat, with so many ‘extras’ like the blankets and all the kitchen resources.

Amazing view and position in a lovely village.

A fabulous property.

Great location. Everything was spotlessly clean. A perfect weekend break. Our only suggestion would be to remove some of the rugs as they could potentially be a slip hazard. We loved the property and will certainly return. Many thanks.

Very spacious comfortable apartment, nice views from balcony.

Cleanliness wasn’t really up to standard, kitchen worktops and cooker tops had brown residue. Bowl in the sink was dirty, bottom of bowl very dirty, baking trays were rusty, not suitable for using. Overall the apartment was comfortable and spacious, car parking on site was very good. Easy walk to the beach and Hope Cove pubs,restaurants and shop.

The location and apartment in general is lovely but things are starting to look tired and worn now and it’s not worth the price … ie) the cups have cracks, flaking paint on the woodwork, the kitchen is very dated now with broken hob dial light , an oven that doesn’t work properly, kitchen drawers that don’t open properly, handles are loose, and cupboard edging stuck together with cello tape .

The cleaners also let this apartment down as it is never cleaned properly . The oven had burnt fat at the bottom.. the fridges weren’t cleaned and the freezer still had food in it from the previous tenant. I’ve score low for cleanliness as I have stayed here 6 times now and have always had to clean the place myself. There is never a smell of cleaning fluids when we arrive which makes me believe the cleaners just vacuum and change the bedding and that’s it. They don’t provide basics like bin bags, washing up liquid, dish clothes or even a toilet roll whereas when we first stayed here in 2017 .. this was provided. We are looking to book the same location next year but we are honestly reconsidering whether to come back here.

We think that the description should highlight the fact that it is necessary to climb 44steps to fully access 5 Chichester Court

The water was switched off when we arrived along with the hot water and there was no information to inform us of this which caused a bit of a negative start.

Waiting for the water to then heat up when we were heading out for the day was annoying! The boiler was also leaking- a bowl had been placed under this- and we changed this regularly to avoid any problems. Again, no message about this we just discovered it when trying to solve the issues. Having said this, the flat was absolutely lovely. An amazing view over Hope Cove, clean and well furnished.

Lovely clean, airy and comfortable apartment.

Stunning views from small furnished veranda. Extremely well equipped throughout. Kitchen had everything anyone could want. Sitting and dining area great. Comfy sofas, very thoughtful extras such as cushions and throws for use with outdoor furniture. Books, toys and DVDs. One thing negative for me personally was mattress in master bedroom a bit saggy and I think needs a replacement. Also, shower in bathroom needs replacement as water goes everywhere but who you want it. Other than that an excellent apartment in a stunning location with stunning views. Would highly recommend.

The only thing missing was large mugs for a good cup of tea on a morning !

Lovely flat.

Spacious main en suite bedroom and twin bedded room. Small 3rd bedroom with small 4’6'’ double bed. Well equipped kitchen and comfortable lounge/dining area. Lovely view from balcony overlooking cove. Would definitely visit again.

Very pleasant stay although the property could have been cleaner.

The oven was very dirty and found socks under one of the beds and only one bag for linen. Dishwasher was not checked as it was full of dirty water and would not work. This was rectified very quickly. Excellent location with great views over the cove. Fitted bedsheets did not fit and kept coming off.

This is a fantastic place in such a wonderful position.

I don’t like going to the same place. But I would stay here again An absolute gem

Wonderful place - the extra fridge made a big difference - thank you.

Please may we have some champagne glasses?

The holiday was great really enjoyed it & the accommodation was lovely plenty of parking we walked down the harbour every morning to watch the seals thankyou.

..

Electrical appliances not the best.

Fridge too small and fragile. Cooker needs updating. No instructions for any of the appliances. Great location and would certainly stay hear again.

The accommodation was very good and the location just what we wanted but it should be mentioned that there are lots of steps to the property.

We were disappointed in the cleanliness of the kitchen especially the oven which was really dirty and especially as we were in covid situation should have been cleaned it needed a professional job done on it. The fridge bottom shelve on the door was broken when we arrived and was not fit for purpose because of the number of visitors it catered for the fridge should be bigger. We ate in nearly every day as it was impossible to eat out as every where was booked up we had tried to book in advance but it was impossible so we needed fridge space. Some of the dishes needed cleaning before we could use them that was not what nee expected. We where surprised with the amount of books games and toys available in the covid situation as well none were used because of that. This all being said we had a very enjoyable stay in the property and because of the excellent weather spent many days on the beach.

Excellent position but shame hope Cove weekend was cancelled.

Spacious well equipped apartment

The place was not cleaned to a good standard.

The fridge was missing a shelf which made storage difficult. In almost all other aspects the flat is excellent.

We loved the property!

Shame the check in is late and check out is early

Ideale Ferienwohnung, Strandnähe, Meerblick, modern und gemütlich eingerichtet.

The view was superb, the position was excellent,great for the beach And pub and shop! The apartment was great.

It was lovely, Hope Cove was just as we imagined.
