"The cottage was quite dirty, at the tv unit and some of the crockery."
Could have been cleaner.
Hi Isabelle,
Thank you for your review and we really hope you enjoyed your stay. Many thanks for bringing to our attention that the level of cleaning was not to the satisfactory standard expected.
We are now in the process of changing cleaning contractors with immediate effect.

"This being the first time we have booked a Skyes Cottage, we found the property well equipped unfortunately we found that the cleaners had left dirty cups on side, there were dirty dishes put back in cupboard."
We had to ring the contact numbers which were in property as
(1) We had to use our computer to watch tv as their was a problem with cable. (2) Bi-folding doors did’nt work properly a maintenance man came he repaired them but then went wrong again could-nt lock properly. He also had to stand on table to turn fan in lounge on.
Hi Susan,
Thank you for your feedback. We do hope we resolved your problems during your stay. We understand there was poor TV reception throughout The Bay over the week that you stayed. We hope the smart TV alleviated this issue to some degree. Not sure why the fan was switched off at the ceiling as it has a remote control for ease of use.
We do hope you enjoyed your stay in our Beach House .
Kind regards Jo Property Owner

"Absolutely delighted with our stay at this property."
Arriving on a chilly February afternoon, we were greeted with a lovely warm property. The property was immaculate. Two en-suite bedrooms. The beds were very comfortable and furnished with high quality bed linen and quilts. Kitchen had all the appliances you could ask for. Washer / drier was especially handy. Comfortable sofas that appeared new and a wonderful log burner. We just couldn't fault this lodge. So impressed we have booked to stay again! Thank you!

"We had a lovely relaxing break."
Everything we needed was provided, a real home from home (loved the coffee machine, on returning home I’ve ordered one.)The wood burner was fab, used it a lot (no starter pack was left for us but local Tesco had plenty)
Just a some thing, new light bulbs in both bathrooms need replacing, only a couple work.
Would definitely recommend and come back again.
Thanks for the great break.

"Beach walk was a lovely lodge, however the sofa and bed were a little uncomfortable (personal preference bed far too soft for me)."
I think someone previously had tampered with the hive settings and the automatic bathroom light in the master room worked randomly, mostly turning off when you walked in but dur to amount of windows this was not a huge issue.
Having been a few times to the bay staying at different properties anyone planning on visiting would do well to visit the aria resort page to book swimming and activities in advance as they were all fully booked the first day we arrived.

"On opening the property we were met with an unpleasant smell, which i couldn`t place at first, then realised what it was The smell of dogs which was continually confirmed every time we went in and out and by dog hairs appearing on our clothes from cushions and throws and the fact that we swept them up."
I suppose we may have been spoilled by previous holidays with sykes and the welcome packs received,but if it says a welcome pack contains milk ,biscuits and other items and nothing is there well it is annoying and no shop on site if we had not brought supplys of our own after a long drive in dreadful weather it would have been worse.
The standard of cleaning left a lot to be desired cobwebs and dust everywhere and to open a cupboard to get plates out and the first one you see has a massive chip out of it says a great deal.
The door handle in master bedroom not properly attached, and first bed in the other room very rickety.

"Beach cottage was really lovely."
It was very open at the front as shown in the pictures but that was no problem as we like to people watch. The walk down to the beach took about 10 mins but was a lovely walk and the beach was beautiful and really clean. The whole complex was welcoming and really dog friendly. Filey is only a 3 mile drive away and there are some really nice little shops. Overall a really peaceful holiday would deffinately recommend it.

"The cleaning was very poor, we found 3 dustpans worth of food under the children’s beds - biscuits, mouldy ice cream, toys and newspapers."
We rand the caretaker as our patio door was broken, nobody turned up to fix it over the 6 days we were there. The facilities in general were good. The beach was fantastic, the pool was good, although splash time was cut short by 20 minutes despite being an additional cost. The pub needs a lot of attention - music changes every 30 seconds, which is very distracting.

Great location on the site and perfectly clean. My only minor niggles, and they were minor, was that there was no bread knife and the mattress didn't match our tastes. I do accept that this is a subjective opinion and how would you cater for lots of different people sleeping in the same bed? But these minor issues aside, the place was perfect and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone.

Beautifully situated within The Bay, a village of its own created beautifully to suit those who need a little R and R and particularly for people like us with dogs and who love walking. Many places that allow dogs can be a little unloved aesthetically but Beach Walk is shiny and new and with lovely modern comforts. We were sad to be coming home but will definitely return time and time again. Really well kept idyllic new village property with fabulous amenities inside and outside the property. We loved it and our dogs were so welcomed too! Thank you.

"This beach house was really attractive ."
It was set in a new holiday village which were all new build houses or beach houses. There was a great pub which did lovely food ( bar meals ) There was a swimming pool on site which was warm and staffed. I was aware of children's activities e.g. archery but we did not take part in this . The beach was a short but steep walk . It was a very easy tarmac path from the house estate to the beach. There were lots of dog owners and people walking around the estate. It was very safe for children. I would definitely return .
The house itself was fantastic and decorated in a beach style . The furniture was good and you had a good fitted kitchen with washing machine and dish washer.
The showers in the two bathrooms were of good power and quality and the heating within the house was excellent.

"The cottage itself was lovely and staying in a beach hut was a new experience for us ."
the only problem was the log burner that was one of the reasons we opted for the cottage was not in use which was disappointing
The pool at the complex was also not open the first 2 days we were there limiting the already poor facilities, the crazy golf course that is advertised for the sight is no longer there it has been built on
The Bayside Kitchen advertised Hot Stone Cooking for 8 cuts of meat and fish however when requesting 2 fillet steaks we were told they only had tump steak and lamb which was disappointing , also when trying to order drinks we were told they only served wine if we wanted anything else we would need to go over to the John Paul Jones Pub buy them and bring back over ourselves not ideal
We decide to order white wine when it came it was at room temperature and we had to ask for an ice bucket to chill it.
The site as a whole has a lot more potential and could provide a much better service all round for the owners and visitors.

"The beach house is lovely as is Kenny the person who deals with any issues."
The problems we found was the house is surrounded by houses and is on the main route to the beach so sitting out on the decking isn't very pleasant or private. The house would be super for 2 adults & 2 children as a bit too compact for 4 adults. The beach is within walking distance but down a very steep hill. My sister uses a wheelchair and we struggled to get down and back up with 3 adults helping! The pub is very handy and does lovely meals. The shop is actually a chemists and didn't stock any of the stuff we wanted so we had to travel further afield for any shopping needed. When we booked we thought it was in a traditional village not a holiday village!

"Initial reaction upon arrival was one of surprise as we did not expect to find this beach style lodge on a road with brick built houses no more than 20 feet away on the opposite side."
We felt that the listing picture was deceiving as the lodge was basically on an estate type holiday park and not facing onto an open area or beach.
The above said once we were over our initial shock we found our weekend break to be extremely enjoyable. The quality of this lodge was second to none. It was well stocked and equipped with high quality fittings. Everything worked perfectly and we could not find fault with anything except perhaps the shower in the main bedroom ensuite which was walk in but the water flowed into the area outside and this needs addressing otherwise it floods over into the rest of the floor. The lodge was positioned well for the beach which was a ten minute walk away.it was also close to the public house which seemed well used and also an Italian restaurant. The place is dog friendly and well used by dog lovers. Overall an extremely good weekend which we booked at short notice. Would not hesitate to recommend Sykes or go back to this nice lodge and locality.

He said he would be there in 10 minutes and true to his word he was. He fixed the problem within a couple of minutes and I asked him about the fan light. This was just a ceiling fan with no light. I commented that my daughter and I like to do craft and my husband liked to read so a good light was essential. Later on in the day Kenny came back with a brilliant floor lamp which was a very much appreciated. We had a couple of other minor issues which Kenny very kindly resolved and never grumbled, nice man.

"Beach Walk was the perfect place for us to relax, we loved it's location less than a minutes walk to the pub and pool, 3 mins to the play park, 15/20 mins walk to the beach with the our little ones."
The walk to the beach is pushchair friendly and worth taking if you've a toddler as the walk back is challenging as it's uphill and after they got tired playing on the beach I was wishing I'd taken it. The beach is a beautiful, clean and sandy beach. Beach walk has everything you could want, the weather was a little poor this February as expected so we spent some afternoons taking advantage of some playing cards, board games and DVDs that we found there. The decor, features and fitting and quality furniture really made the place feel classy, I loved the bathroom furniture and the thick warm bedroom carpets. The twin locking beds are firm and stayed together very well. It was nice the house was detached as it made it feel private. The heating could be controlled manually which we were very grateful for. All in all we would not have wished for anything else.
