What our customers say about their holidays

  On the surface the cottage was as advertised.

  But when we stepped inside to a cold cottage we were disappointed, that knowing our arrival time 4pm, the owners had not thought to put the electric heating on for us. To then read in book that we could NOT alter the heating settings, instead have to light the Wood burner to keep warm we were not happy . I have Asthma, so having had conversations with you about the Duck feather duvet, which you had resolved, did not want to light a fire. On the Sunday after 2 cold nights my husband contacted Louise and she allowed us to alter Heating times. The fact that both radiators were behind furniture, which we pulled out had not helped. Storage of our food was in 2 small baskets in the unit , not adequate. maybe a cupboard instead of a picture above would be better. The heated Towel rail wasn't on and we were told by Louise the switch was on the other side of the panel. These things could all have been written down somewhere. The travel instructions were inadequate and only applied if we had come over The Tamar Bridge, we hadn't.

  We found the Barn to meet our needs perfectly.

  It was a perfect size for a couple. Definitely spacious enough and the privacy in the garden with the hot tub was lovely. Our weather was great so we sat out for breakfast each morning. Angarrack is a lovely village and the Inn was a few minutes walk for drinks and food. The Barn was well equipped with everything we needed. It was clean and well organised. Lovely bedding. Lou, the housekeeper left wine, milk and flowers for our arrival which were very much appreciated after our nine hour drive. Although we were there for family reasons, not a holiday, we would love to return again to relax, enjoy the hot tub, and all the surrounding areas. We did manage a walk along the cliffs at Godrevy Point which is a short distance from the property, but it’s very well placed to visit many more beautiful walks, beaches and towns in Cornwall.

  We loved staying at Polly’s Bower.

  It was clean, well equipped and comfortable, and in a beautiful spot. It is very well appointed with a really sympathetic renovation of an old barn and very nicely fitted out. Our cat settled really well, which is quite an achievement! Glorious views, with outside benches and table for when the weather allows, looking out over orchards and fields. Delicious Cornish cream tea provided for arrival, plus other local goodies, and a pint of milk. All you could want, and more, from a holiday cottage. The lovely Tamar Valley is on the doorstep, and easy access to north and south coasts. Tavistock is a really nice market town to explore, and Plymouth is nearby. National Trust Cotehele is really worth a visit. We would love to return. Thank you !

  Robin cottage was clean and tidy and we knew that it was small so that was not a problem.

  But unfortunately it wasn't clear to me that it did not have any garden at all. I had read that it had a shared courtyard with furniture which I expected to be joined to the property. As it was the courtyard was along the road from us. Stepping out through our front door you were on the road itself, and we found it quite awkward for our dog especially in the middle of the night if he needed a wee. I think there were only two cottages without enclosed outside space and I feel that this should be made clear when booking as unsuitable for dogs. Lastly the walk to the pub and shop was pretty difficult as the only way to go was so overgrown. The pub was worth it once you made it there though and the food was lovely.

  We had an excellent week again Godrevy Barn.

  For Sykes Holidays rather than the owners I would like to raise the following point. The time allowed into the property is 5pm and the requirement to vacate on the last day is 9am. This amounts to a whole day of the holiday. Prior to Covid and probably several years before it used to be 2-3pm in and 10am out. The times now in place were given to allow additional cleaning because of Covid which surely isn’t the issue now. My other point is, I have received numerous messages offering discounts for holidays, what a pity these cannot be applied to bookings already made. We have a booking in Godrevy Cottage for Christmas made earlier this year and will pay the going rate. A discount for loyalty?
