  Located on the High Street, this place is a great location close to food, shops, the beach, the castle, and the train station.

  The view from the back doors does offer the enchanting view of the castle, as advertised on the Sykes' site. The directions received on how to find the place were not super clear but we managed to find it without too much inconvenience thanks to Google's help. At first glance, the property looks fabulous but some things were not as perfect as they seem. The 2 high dining chairs were hard and uncomfortable to get in and out of and is the only place to eat with the chairs sitting mere inches from the washroom door. The wooden armrest covers are heavy and fall easily to the floor with a loud crash. It would also have been appreciated if there was a place to hang coats and a small doormat. It rained a little bit during our stay and there is nowhere near the door to hang gear to dry, the only doormat to wipe off footwear is located outside the room so the floor got a little dirty when we removed our outerwear. The bedding and pillows were simply lovely but the bed itself was too soft for our comfort. At times, the noise from the street was audible and would wake us briefly, but it was not really awful. The heavy curtains really helped to block light as well as noise. We really appreciated having the dishwasher as there are not many pieces of each plates, bowls, cutlery etc. Thank you for the Welsh cakes, instant coffee, sugar, and milk as well. We would stay again if we were in the area for a short stay. On a side note, the fish and chips we had on our last night from the shop below was FABULOUS!! One of the best cod we've ever had! (I believe the establishment is owned by the same owner as the apartment.)

  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Nook.

  It was very clean, comfortable and generally well equipped. It was delightfully close to the seafront providing some lovely views. Great having the on-site parking too. The kitchen had an amazing, modern oven - we were very grateful for the comprehensive instruction manual. We shied away from trying the Ninja air fryer though. A few small points: A kitchen roll would have been useful. The entrance door took us a few seconds to figure out how to engage the lock - you need to fully lift the handle before turning the key or the knob on the inside. The bin use instructions are on the inside of the lids so found them after opening the bins. Helpful as everywhere seems to have different recycling guidelines. The duvet and some of the cushions have feather fillings - very soft and comfortable but we brought our own duvet as I react badly to feathers. Overall, a terrific place for two people to stay and we would certainly consider staying there again.

  For longer visits (we stayed just short of a week) we could have done with some more bath towels, definitely more than one roll of toilet paper, more than one bin bag for the kitchen and having some paper towels provided.

  We had to replace the batteries in the TV remote. Although the pillows are obviously good quality, they were very lumpy and so some additional variety of non woollen would have been appreciated. Road by bedroom is very bright and noisy, a good pair of blackout curtains would go a long way to fixing this. Shower ran out of hot water on one occasion (used for no more than 20 minutes) and internet did drop. We got ticketed parking in the diagonal bays of what we thought was the long stay car park, this is very confusing to a non local especially arriving after dark. Some extra information as to which bays are long stay and can be parked in on the 'getting your keys' section would help. All that said these are very easily fixable niggles and our overall stay was enjoyable. The flat is very well situated for visiting the area and to a high standard of furnishing. The welcome cakes and milk were a nice touch and flat was spotlessly clean.

  Lovely flat in a perfect location for walking to the beach and village, and for driving further afield.

  Plenty of parking outside the flat (in October). The size suits a couple more than 4 people unless the other 2 are kids. Cleanliness was 95% there, just a little more attention needed ( such as the very grubby living room rug which we cleaned. I assume it was dirty as it's used by dogs but it took us 5 mins to transform it and remove most of the large, very visible stains, so it could easily have been a bit more pleasant on our arrival). Great for a stay with our puppy as the garden was pretty secure and very accessible, but the info book stated no pets allowed even though we booked clearly with one dog, which was a little concerning. Bottle of wine on arrival was a nice touch. A little more attention to some details would have helped, such as 2 remote controls with flat batteries on arrival. It's in a nice quiet area. Kitchen was quite well equipped, albeit very small. Sofas and bed were unusually comfortable for a holiday let.

  REALLY ENJOYED OUR STAY, THE APARTMENT WAS VERY SPACIOUS, AND MODERN, ALTHOUGH THE KITCHEN AREA WAS COMPACT - IT HAD EVERYTHING WE NEEDED.

  IT WAS IN A GREAT LOCATION FOR EVERYTHING. THE ENCLOSED OUTDOOR SPACE AT THE BACK WAS GREAT FOR THE DOG. WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS PARKING ON THE ROAD OPPOSITE, ALTHOUGH MAYBE BUSIER IN THE SPRING/SUMMER MONTHS. ( ASKED IF THERE WAS A HAIRDRYER IN THE PROPERTY AND WAS TOLD NOT - HOWEVER THERE WAS! ) BITS OF THE APARTMENT COULD HAVE BEEN CLEANER - FOUND CLUMPS OF DUST NEAR WARDROBE - NOT VERY CLEAN BEHIND TOILET, AND FOIL UNDERNEATH GRILL LOOKED LIKE SOMEONE HAD USED IT PREVIOUSLY. ON THE WHOLE THIS WAS MINOR AND WOULDN'T PUT US OFF STAYING AGAIN. REALLY ENJOYED THE SWIVEL CHAIR IN THE BAY WINDOW - WATCHING THE WORLD GO BY AND LOVELY VIEWS OF THE BAY!
