September 2020

“The flat itself was just right and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.”

However, we were given the incorrect keys on the Monday evening (just before 5pm). When we discovered this at 5:30 we called the telephone number provided but no response for over an hour - the 24/7 number just wasn’t manned. The website had no other contact details - so we were stuck outside the flat with our luggage with no way of getting into the flat. We eventually got a message through via Facebook which was picked up and got the correct keys around 6:30. Why have a 24/7 assistance line ...

Mrs Cotton September 2020

“Lovely place and lovely location.”

Very late check in and unfortunately the cleanliness of the apartment was a let down. Especially during Covid-19, I would have expected everywhere to be much cleaner. We had to clean the property ourselves at the start of our break due to the standard of it.

- Mrs Cotton, September 2020

Many thanks for your recent feedback. We are really pleased you loved the property and its location. However we are disappointed to hear that the apartment was not presented to our usual high standard on your arrival. We take this very seriously and will be passing your comments on to the cleaner. Please know that if you had informed us of this situation during you stay, we would have sent a cleaner back to address the issues. We do hope you had an enjoyable stay in spite of these issues and look forward to welcoming you back to the area soon. Sykes owner relations

“This was a return trip for us, which speaks for itself”

- Mrs Dewsnap, August 2020
Mrs Castro Harrington August 2020

“Great central location and even though there’s no outside space the views of the harbour from the windows in the lounge are beautiful!”

Attention to detail regarding the cleaning could be improved.. maybe we were just a little unlucky. Overall a very comfortable and enjoyable stay.

“A very comfortable and convenient location, perfect with my dog,”

- Mrs Bache, September 2019
Mr Reid August 2019

“The apartment was lovely and a great location.”

The only major problem was myself and wife had to sleep on the sofa's for the three nights we stayed as the mattress on the double bed was terrible. I would buy a new double mattress for sure !

- Mr Reid, August 2019
Mr Grayer June 2019

“Excellent location and view of the harbour.”

The TV's are excellent. The apartment falls short of the normal C&CC standards. The furniture is tired and speaks more of a second hand shop than a quality apartment, the crockery is a "mish mash" of different types & two pieces had been broken and repaired. The failed double glazing in the lounge with condensation was specifically notable. It was only on the last day we found the downstairs hall light. We had amazing weather so spent little time in the apartment.

- Mr Grayer, June 2019

We are glad that you were happy with the location of the property, I can only apologise that some aspects of the property did not meet your expectations. Your feedback in respect of the accommodation is much appreciated, please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused. We do hope that you had an enjoyable holiday in spite of the issues raised and look forward to welcoming you back to Salcombe in the not too distant future. Sykes owner relations

Mrs H Playle

“A lovely, spacious and well equipped apartment with a lovely view which couldn't be better located right in the centre of Salcombe, and literally feet away from the Victoria Inn, our favourite!”

The only thing missing is Wi-Fi, which would be appreciated, but we highly recommend this property and will definitely be back.

- Mrs H Playle,

Thank you for your kind review of 67a Fore Street in Salcombe. It is fantastic to hear that the property suited you so well and, in terms of location, is a perfect base!

We will continue to encourage all owners in this respect and will forward your comments to this particular owner.

Thank you for your kind review regarding your stay at 67a Fore Street in Salcombe. Your feedback regarding the oven gloves has been passed on to the owner for their attention. We do hope you had an enjoyable holiday and look forward to welcoming back to the area soon. The Team at Coast & Country Cottages Sykes owner relations
“Would highly recommend it for the view, location, layout and fittings.”

It would be perfect if the owners invested in some comfortable mattresses, and replaced the larger of the two settees which was very uncomfortable (possibly broken?). Shame to let such a lovely flat down with a couple of relatively cheap fixes.

- ,

Thank you for your feedback. We are now pleased to advise that the owner will be purchasing a new king size mattress for delivery to the property shortly. Thank you once again for your comments and we look forward to seeing you again soon. The Team at Coast & Country Cottages Sykes owner relations
