  The house was lovely!

  Large, well equipped kitchen, lovely dining room and a good sitting room. There could have been more places to sit - when the house is full, you have to sit on dining chairs. The bedrooms are wonderful! Big, lots of storage, clean, comfortable beds. The bathrooms are lovely, especially the one on the top floor. With many people in the house, we appreciated the to extra seperate toilets in addition to the bathrooms. The little apartment was also very good to have when staying 14 people in the house. Being Norwegian, we could't manage the AGA in the kitchen, so we had to use the other stove. We would have preferred two "ordinary" stoves, but that is more our own problem. It was very helpful with the big utility room and being able to wash and dry clothes. There was also a good parking space for our four cars. The house is just a short walk from the beach and town centre. I would highly recommend this property for big families to enjoy a holiday in lovely Swanage

  My wife, myself and our four friends made the very best of our one week stay at 20 Ulwell Road.

  I say this, as the weather could have been a lot kinder to us. We were left a very nice welcome pack, that contained most of the 'immediate essentials.' The house is very well presented and had pretty much everything we could have wanted. I stayed in the ground floor bedroom/apartment, which was large. The furnishings in this room are a little bit tired, but perfectly adequate. The shower has some black mould on the seals. My one big problem with this room was the tap in the sink. It took around 5 minutes for any hot water to come through and when it did, there was just the smallest gap between cold and scorching hot. This needs fixing. The lounge and dining room are very nice, as were the other bedrooms, although one shower was not working. One pleasant call with the Owner was enough for this to be fixed. I would recommend the rental of this property to anyone.

  Fantastic 1st floor apartment in a great location.

  Well kitted out with everything required for a great and comfortable stay. We stayed over Christmas and the decorated and illuminated tree was a nice touch. There was even a turkey roasting tray provided! Parking in Swanage can be tricky but time restricted parking is available immediately outside the property and there were spaces for overnight parking on most evenings. Other on street parking is only a short walk away. And the Red Lion is just across the road. A pint of Timothy Taylor’s Landlord, straight from the barrel, should not be missed! Our originally booked Swanage accommodation was withdrawn by the owner 2 weeks before travel, much to our annoyance (to put it mildly!) and after having tried to move us 2 months previously (but then confirmed!), so Sykes found this property for us at very late notice, and it was excellent.

  Initially apprehensive to find my way to the cottage and where to park,but on arrival everything so plain and simple .

  Parking obvious ,route to the cottage clear and precise,very well set out and organised.inside the cottage was like new.tastefully set out.pictures on the walls maybe indicated the owners were fellow travellers explorers, .There was a picture of the Great Ocean Road( The twelve Apostles) in Australia.A lovely touch ,a picture with Wanderlust, which is my motto ,saying, well that's me,having spent the last 36 years on various expeditions around the world.Also Wanderlust is on the back of my campervan.i had no idea where , langton Matravers was,in relation to anywhere in Dorset, but fate landed me in exactly the perfect location and perfect cottage and basecamp to explore.Every where I wanted to go was close by. Absolutely perfect sojourn.

  We spent a week in an apartment without a shower.

  The thermostat was mentioned in a previous review so was known about when we arrived. We rang everyday to try and get it rectified and have still had no resolution. You don't pay over £1000 for a weeks holiday and have to spend everyday bent over a bath with a jug washing your hair and having a wash. Dream cottages said they would try and sort out some compensation from the owner - nothing. Then Sykes said the same and added that they would try and get compensation for the terrible customer service we receieved and guess what - nothing. Disgusting way to treat returning customers. Will not book with them again and won't be recommending either.
