• "Lovely clean apartment with beautiful views."

  We stayed in November (before the cold snap) and despite being quite hardy people found the apartment chilly during the day and evening. Perhaps the underfloor heating could be programmed to be a little warmer for a little longer whilst letting during the colder months. Apart from that this is a great place to stay.

• "We had a wonderful week in this lovely apartment."

  It was spotlessly clean and tastefully presented and of course the view is incredible.

• "Fabulous , comfortable,well maintained and clean Apartment with everything you need for your stay provided and the most amazing views!"

  ! Outside table and sun loungers to enjoy the spectacular scenery. Good comms for arrival, key collection and departure details. We were fortunate that we had brilliant weather and the walks, beaches and scenery locally were stunning especially from the top of the island. We have fallen in love with this location and have already booked again. The lanes are tight to drive down with only passing bays in places so best to try to avoid busy times and use the A roads as less stressful but you have to use the lanes from A379 as it’s the only Road to get to Bigbury on Sea. Locally there are only a few shops , one is the beach shop that does sell some lovely souvenirs and a small Nisa food shop on the campsite in the next bay, Holywell Stores is in St Anne’s Chapel, so either come prepared or expect to drive the lanes again to get supplies. I think that some information in the apartment on what is nearby i.e locally produced produce, Farm Shops, farmers markets / days etc would be useful and also if they deliver ? We had a few meals out in the leisure club and Pilchards Inn and enjoyed both restaurants the food was very good - both need reservations for dinner, the staff in both were very friendly . The Venus Cafe on the beach lower car park was also lovely for a breakfast, coffee and a cheeky ice cream! Lots of people had dogs and the beach is perfect for them! The sea tractor is interesting to watch coming back and forth as the tide comes in and out over the causeway and worth a ride for the experience, time it right and you can just walk across to the Island and the pub which always seemed popular, you do pay a deposit on the plastic glass if you sit outside but is refunded if you return. Only small niggle - the BBQ’s / fires on the beach - when they were below the apartment the smoke drifted onto the patio and into the apartment if the doors were open, so a little annoying but it was mainly at the weekend. Honestly, you won’t be disappointed with the apartment or location we had a wonderful relaxing time , highly recommended and can’t wait to return !

• "Our third time in this wonderful apartment."

  We love the terrace as opposed to the smaller balconies so snap this apartment up whenever we can! It is very comfortable and well equipped particularly the kitchen. We would have liked an additional door key and contacted the manager who just said it had been lost and no further help was offered. We also had to ask for the windows keys so we could lock them due to having an autistic child, this was provided but unfortunately the window lock in the bedroom our daughter was sleeping was broken. Also disappointed that the additional door into the shower room/toilet from the corridor has been made into a cupboard meaning you have to enter the bathroom via the bedroom so even if someone was asleep you still needed to go through the bedroom.

• "We returned to 2 Burgh Island Causeway after a lovely holiday last year and found that it was just as good, if not better, this year."

  The apartment was immaculately clean, wonderfully comfortable and very well equipped with everything we could possibly need. The views are magnificent and it was glorious to sit on the balcony to have our meals and soak in the sun.

• "A wonderful apartment."

  The view is exceptional, eating breakfast will never be the same again. All the rooms were beautifully presented and the entire complex was well maintained and cared for. The variety of entertainment, books, DVDs and games was appriciated, especially on the wild wet days, when we could not go out for long walks. The gifts of wine and chocolate cake were very thoughtful. Thank you to everyone.

• "This apartment is a real home from home."

  The owner has thought of everything including plenty of books, dvds and games. The standard of facilities is top notch and it is spotlessly clean. The view is beautiful and the pool and club are welcome.

  It was spotless, spacious and had everything we needed, and more. We met the lovely owners, who fixed a very small problem immediately. Would certainly recommend Sykes and the property.

  We were welcomed with a bottle of wine and chocolate cake. We enjoyed our stay so much that we have already booked again for next year. The only slight complaint is that there was smell of damp in the shower room.

• "First stay in this apartment, regular visitors to the Causeway, terrace is huge and really fab for relaxing and dining with the best views!"

  Really well equipped apartment. Would like to see the health club review the restrictions still in place as the pool is a big reason for choosing the location and having to book is boring for the kids especially when you see it empty because people haven't turned up for their spot.

• "The accommodation exceeded our expectations."

  I would definitely recommend this property. We look forward to making another booking in the not too distant future. It was spotless with everything you needed. Particularly impressed with the quality of all furnishings. The temperature in the property was spot on on too. A stunning location with beautiful sunsets - and the weather was very kind to us despite it being March. Thank you for a memorable and relaxing break much needed after the two strange years we have all experienced.

  The wine, cake and milk for when we arrived was a nice touch and greatly appreciated. It's a shame that the bbq has now been removed and banned from the complex next year but that's a relatively small inconvenience, with the owner contacting us in advance so we were aware.

• "A fantastic apartment in a wonderful location with the most amazing views."

  We never got tired of watching the tide come in and out and the scenery was beautiful in the sun, but still exciting and dramatic in the rain and wind. The apartment was perfect - with all modern conveniences, very clean and comfortable - even better than in the pictures and the best self catering place we have ever stayed in. We can't wait to go back!

  It is perfect and we hope to book again for 2020. Our grandchildren have a super time going to the beach, visiting the shop and swimming in the pool and it is a real plus to be able to go to the restaurant each evening. Simply a great holiday experience.

  Really enjoyed the bistro food was great and wine reasonably priced, it would be good to see other apartments use it more! Apartment two is beautifully positioned and we loved the sunny days we were able to sit on the terrace. We needed advice on the heating and had very good service from Carol and Tom.
