“A good location for a short break.”

Convenient with easy access and a great view across the estuary.

“Although the apartment is small it does offer what is probably the finest view in Salcombe.”

It is well furnished to a good standard, however the "pull down" bed is a bit of a pain and although simple to operate it means you have to leave clothes lying around the living area when you retire to bed. It is almost too well equipped with cooking utensils - enough there to furnish a small hotel kitchen, and it does look as if someone has downsized from a large house and taken all the spare kitchen equipment and left it in the apartment which means a lot of the storage space is taken up with unwanted items. One big bonus is the car parking space, which in Salcombe, which particularly in summer must be an absolute plus.All in all though we had a great holiday and I would certainly mention the excellent service we had from the local office.Initially there was a problem with the Salcombe's WiFi that was quickly sorted and one day the car park barrier failed to open (due to some very high winds) but again the office wasted no time in getting it repaired. We would certainly use Sykes cottages in the future - and we did love Salcombe itself. Friendly locals, some great places to eat and drink and easy reach of Plymouth,Dartmouth and Totnes
Mr Wickenden July 2019

“The only negative points I would like to make are: One of the balcony doors wouldn't open as the top catch had stuck fast.”

The bottom catch was completely missing which meant it was never really secure. We wouldn't have minded so much if this was pointed out prior to our occupation so at least no blame could be apportioned to us, which I must point out hasn't. We were disappointed that the balcony hadn't been jet washed to remove Seagull excrement prior to our occupation. We understand that Seagulls are a persistent problem in this respect but the mess we saw was clearly dried and present for a couple of days at least.

“Had another good week in 36 The Salcombe despite the disappointing weather this year.”

The building is looking so much better as a result of a lot of on-going improvements, and Emily the building manager is a welcome addition. Slightly disappointed to be told by your office that there will no longer be offers sent out to re-book for next year. It seems it's now down to me to remember to search for availability at the end of this season, so we'll wait and see how that works.
Mr B S Morss

“This studio flat is best described as having "Character", largely due to the age of the building.”

Slightly sloping floors and being able to hear the people walking about upstairs, go with the package. The interior is modern & well equipped, and we never tire of the views from the balcony, which is probably why we keep coming back!

Thank you for your kind feedback in respect of your stay at 36 The Salcombe. It is always lovely to hear from our returning guests and we can quite see why - with such amazing views - you keep coming back! We look forward to see you again in 2018! Sykes owner relations
“Compact studio- location & views and balcony unbeatable.”

Few too many nicnacs within apartment for my personal taste and slightly old fashioned- however kitchen area & bathroom were sound.

Many thanks for your review of 36 The Salcombe. We were pleased to hear that you enjoyed the fantastic views over the main anchorage from the balcony together with the central location of this property. We look forward to assisting you find a suitable alternative property for Merlin Week 2017 (dates brought forward to w/c 30th June 2017) and have already been in touch with some options. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

“A lovely position and a great balcony but the room itself we felt needed updating.”

Thank you for your recent feedback in respect of this apartment, which we will pass onto, and discuss with, the owner.
Whilst the fit-out and presentation of the accommodation is relatively simple (c3 Star) the apartment is very popular and has many returning guests as you may be aware. The balcony, central location and spectacular views are clearly a big attraction but we appreciate that the overall quality must be maintained to a good standard.
Best wishes and thank you again for your comments.

“Unbeatable view over the estuary from the balcony and the apartment is right at the centre of Salcombe.”
