  • "The cottage was brilliant."

    Best I've ever stayed in. Lovely location, completely accurate photos and description and holiday wasn't marred by awful weather as staying indoors was a treat_ warm, clean and cosy. Very helpful information re.everything. As there were only 2 of us, we mainly dined at local dog friendly hotel, especially as it was my son's birthday.

  • "We had a lovely time the only thing I would ask is that we could have been able to shut the gate it would have stopped the worry of the dog running out."

    It didn’t however ruin our holiday

    Hi Gillian, Thanks so much for the positive scores on the feedback, glad you had a lovely time. I'll send you a message directly as I would like to understand the issue with the gate, we have two gates at the property and both should be able to shut and contain a dog. Kind regards Luke Property Owner

  • "We loved our stay at Tilly's Cottage."

    From start to finish it was wonderful. The owners were v flexible and responsive in relation to a last second booking. When we arrived, we were pleased to find that the property is right by the sand dunes, so you can picnic/ have your sundowners on the beach. Inside the property is small but perfectly formed with lots of finishing touches to make your stay easy, from a fully stocked kitchen, to netflix, DVDs, boardgames and books. The place was spotless and the back garden was beautifully landscaped. I would recommend this property to anyone with a young family- it is perfect for your needs.

  • "If you are looking for peace and quiet and only 75m from a wonderful, very clean sandy beach, which is totally dog friendly, then Tilly's Cottage is your place."

    Sand Bay beach is over a mile long with views across the Bristol Channel to Cardiff. The property is well equipped and more homely than the photos suggest as the owners have added pictures and nick-knacks, We were very lucky with the weather which, of course, was a huge bonus but Weston-Super-Mare is only ten minutes away for attractions and supermarkets.

  • "A bottle of bubbly and lovely bread and milk left for us on arrival, much appreciated, thank you."

    However floors were dirty, particularly around edges and skirting boards were filthy, very off putting. The bedroom smelled of the damp which is seen on the walls and window. I wiped down the inside of the window and made sure it stayed open for ventilation, to try and get rid of the damp smell. I recommend white towels not navy, as navy threads come off all over the body when drying. Shower is poor, a trickle of water, difficult to wash hair under and rinse properly, but the water was lovely and hot. Comforable bed. The kitchen surfaces seemed clean and good facilities within, excellent knives, frying pans etc. But no broom or dustpan and brush (I searched everywhere) which were needed. I hoovered up sand everyday. The cupboard door handle had already come off before we arrived. The inside of the lounge window was horribly dirty, due to lack of ventilation. Lounge floor was filthy and dusty under table. This floor had not been properly cleaned (if at all for months). The cottage needs a good deep clean and redecoration with investment in new windows with fanlights. The little pretty 'garden' has been well maintained and is clearly cared for, so I can't understand why the owners have let the inside of the cottage go so much and it is only the start of the season so I would expect a pristine accommodation. Setting is very quiet and we awoke to beautiful bird song every morning. The front garden is lovely, getting the sun all day and a bench at the front would be wonderful, there is plenty of room. A feature could be made of the space out front. The cottages position on the beach road is 'A' star. Dog walks on beach fantastic. Fish and chip shop neaby is excellent, fish, pies, breakfast baps, superb. Sainsburys close by in car 10 mins. Clevedon really nice. We enjoyed our week but would have preferred a cleaner property and I would not book this cottage again on that basis only. If it is spruced up sufficiently the cottage would be 4 star. .

  • "Tilly’s cottage was a lovely little cottage, a stone’s throw away from the sea."

    A lovely welcome package (including my favourite Prosecco) which was really appreciated after a difficult journey. Lots of amazing places to walk, some of which were walkable directly from the cottage, where we walked to Weston Super Mare one way and Sand Point (National Trust) the other. Other walks which we drove to were Weston to Uphill and Brean Down (National Trust) which had the most amazing dog friendly cafe and very helpful rangers. Sand beach opposite cottage is dog friendly all year which our dog loved. All local people were extremely friendly and the owners were very friendly and available to contact if needed.

  • "A clean tidy and very well equipped property and with off road parking and a private rear garden you do get a a bit of a home from home feel here."

    The owner was also very helpful and supportive. We spent a very enjoyable and comfortable week at Tilly's cottage at the end of December through to January. It was warm and cosy with absolutely everything we needed. The welcome pack was very welcome indeed and the Christmas tree was a very nice touch. With the beach literally just across the road, Weston-Super-Mare just a short car or bus ride away and lots of other things to see and do in the area, the location in our opinion is perfect for whatever kind of holiday you are looking for.

  • "I’ve just had a lovely 5 nights stay here."

    The cottage is situated very near the beach, perfect for walking the dog and seeing beautiful sunsets. Everything you could need is provided plus a lovely welcome pack. Sweet little garden at the rear but not quite dog friendly if you have a small dog, they could get under the side gates, I always take a freestanding 3 sided dog pen, so I was able to make it secure. I would highly recommend Tilly’s Cottage and would stay here again.

    Thank you very much for the great feedback Deborah, we're really pleased you enjoyed your stay. We've taken onboard your comments regarding the gates and are planning to replace them soon. Look forward to welcoming you back in the future! Property Owner

    Kitchen equipment excellent including crockery and glass ware. Good oven and micro cooked a meal most evenings. Bed comfortable. Loved the garden just would have liked a bench on front for afternoon sun. We carried a chair thro from the back garden. Convenient bus to Weston passes cottage regularly used this rather than parking in Weston. Thanks for the prosecco, bread and coffee pods. Parked car on top in space rather than bringing down drive rather narrow.

    When approached the owner he didn’t want to see the pictures of the filth and said believe you ????? DO NOT BOOK THROUGH SYKES AND DEFINITELY DO NOT BOOK THIS FILTHY COTTAGE .

    Hi Gail, I’m really sorry that this was your experience. We spoke a number of times shortly after your arrival and tried our hardest to resolve, offering the cleaners to revisit on the evening of your arrival and the next day to rectify any issues but you refused. We also offered a meal at a local restaurant or compensation. We prioritise the cleanliness of our cottage as a comfortable place for families and their furry friends and have had numerous comments previously about how clean and well equipped the cottage, but on this occasion I can see these did not match your expectations. We have reviewed with the cleaning company and will continue to monitor the situation moving forward. Property Owner

  • "We had a wonderful week."

    The property was lovely especially the garden and the location was perfect. The only (very minor) complaint was that the cleaner had left the hoover in a very dirty state, which we had to clean before we could use it, and there was no first aid kit, only a packet of paracetamol. The pillows in the master bedroom could probably do with replacing. None of this affected our enjoyment. Thank you for a lovely holiday.

    Hi Roger, Thanks very much for your feedback, we will get some new pillows for the master bedroom asap. There should be a first aid kit in the cupboard above the oven, apologies if that wasn't clear for you to be able to find, we'll be sure to mention it in the welcome book. We will also feedback to the cleaner regarding the hoover. I hope you had a lovely stay and look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Kind regards Luke Property Owner

  • "Absolutely perfect for why we were in the area."

    A calm quiet bolt hole to support the excitement/anxiety of house viewing and decision making around our relocation and downsizing. I kept thinking how perfect it would have been for our kids in the late 80's 90's. Just open the front door and out onto the beach. Freedom. As they are in their late 30's now bit of a late discovery. However it was something similar for our terriers and in a couple of years we know where to take the grandchildren for a holiday.

    All of us had the most wonderful time. Totally relaxed and what a position. We walked the coastal path and beachcombed. The weather was cold and crisp an bright. No rain. The facilities were excellent and so close to the little cafe and chip shop. In fact it was the perfect holiday, one of my best. I celebrated my 50th Birthday there, very memorable for lots of reasons. I hope to return again soon. I’m going to tell everyone about Tillys Cottage. Xx

    Weston wood was also just a 5-10 minute walk away. There aren't many places that offer as easy access to such a combination. The bungalow was bright and clean and owners had kindly provided some food essentials and treats so there was no need to immediately pop out to the local shops.

  • "Tilly's Cottage was the perfect place for an autumn break."

    As soon as we walked through the door we could tell that a lot of love and care has gone into the cottage. A lovely welcome pack was very gratefully received and the owners have obviously gone to a lot of trouble to make sure everything you might need for a comfortable stay is to hand. The cottage was spotlessly clean with lots of spare towels/linen if needed and the friendly communication from the owners made us feel that - had we needed to ask for anything (which we didn't) - nothing would be too much trouble. The time of year meant we didn't take advantage of the small outside area and summer house but I imagine they would provide a very relaxing spot during the warmer months. In very close proximity to the spotlessly clean and unspoilt beach (lovely for beach walks), the cottage was also in walking distance of several lovely pubs/restaurants. We would definitely return if in the area again.

    It is small but perfect for a couple or small family. Facilities are modern and clean and everything one would need for a comfortable stay. Just across the quiet Beach Road and you are on the dunes by the beach. Our little cocker spaniel loved the beach and the sea. I was able to get the car off the road on to the drive which has a gate across the top. The front and back gardens were both secure for small children and dogs. A 2 minute walk to a chippy and a 10 minute walk to a small local shop. A 3 minute walk to a hotel restaurant and a 15 minute walk up the hill to the New Castle pub although there is no pavement and it can be dark. Loved it!
