Brewery View

It is difficult to give proper feedback.

It is indeed a wonderful apartment...new & clean and perfect for a small family (2 adults and 1 child). The location could not be better, essentially everything within walking distance. There was no need to move the car, and parking is also how it ought to be. BUT! There is a bus stop directly under the two sleeping rooms and the balcony. We had to learn that this is a designated drop-off point for passengers arriving on the cruise ships. These buses are double decker buses with a perfect view into the rooms and another perfect view across the balcony into the living room. The noise level is not acceptable as there is a bus constantly (!) waiting at the stop with the engine running. Bus drivers talk loudly with tour guides and customers. It is the 'Portland port shuttle bus' that drops off and collects people throughout the day from 10 am until 7 pm. There was no escape for us! Out of a one-week stay, three days were affected. While we spent most of our time hiking or at the beach, the afternoons were terrible after returning to relax before dinner. We feel that charging the full rate/rent for these days is unreasoable. When were asked by Sykes Holiday Cottages whether everything is fine two days after our arrival, and it was then when we reported the problem but it was only confirmed that our observation is correct. I would have expected a different approach to the problem.

Had a great time at the property.

It's a lovely place to stay. Well equipped and well presented.

What an absolute gem.

In a perfect location for newtons cove and the harbour. It was immaculate and very well equipped. The only minor issues were a lack of glasses. An iron would have been handy and as we were there in the heatwave a fan in the bedroom would have been great as we had to leave the windows open and it could get a bit noisy. All said it was an excellent apartment and we would definitely recommend and return ourselves.

We had an excellent holiday at Brewery View.

The property was in a perfect location close but not too near shops, restaurants, pubs, the harbour, seaside and town centre. Brewery View was well equipped with the equipment we needed all in good working order. Two items that were absent would have enhanced our holiday further were:- A portable mains powered fan, since we stayed during a heat wave and with no A.C. fitted it was very hot in the apartment. The second item would be a support hand rail inside the shower unit to assist in getting in and out and turning, since the floor gets very slippery when wet.

This is a very clean comfortable apartment, easy walk to,old harbour , beaches & town.

We had to call the maintenance guy out twice on our first day to sort TV. More detailed instructions would be appropriate as we are sure most visitors would be of the older variety, not so familiar with the operation of smart tv Also an iron & iron board would be appreciated,especially for folks such as ourselves , on an extended holiday from Australia, travelling between rental accomodation.

Fabulous apartment great location would definitely recommend it and wouldn't hesitate to book it again

Apartment was in great condition and all the fixtures and kitchen utensils/appliance were excellent.

The TV, wifi, board games etc all were good. Only minor thing was the sofas were a bit small and uncomfortable to sit on and the double bed mattress wasn't great, but other than that we enjoyed our stay, the location was excellent and we would stay there again.
