What our customers say about their holidays

  Firstly we loved Lyme Regis.

  However finding the property and key safe situation was a different story. We were not told until we had paid the full price of the holiday about the keysafe situation. We have used Sykes Cottages before and after payment we have been given instructions and the owners number which gives us as seniors peace of mind incase of any problems or difficulties. Your previous properties have been perfect no problems at all and even a welcome pack to greet you not here sadly. The garden isn’t inviting as it looks in the photographs. We were looking forward to using the deckchairs but they were in a poor state tucked up the side of the building.In fact all the garden furniture was in a poor state and it was a lot of money to us what we paid to be disappointed like this. It’s supposed to have a washing machine but it hasn’t that shouldn’t be stated. Yes it states the steps to the bathroom are step but that is a bit of an understatement for health and safety reasons there should be a rail put there.The extraction fan was making terrible noises so we were nervous to use it so refrained and that wasn’t ideal as there is no window in the said bathroom. We didn’t stay the whole term of the holiday we had to return home the bed was so uncomfortable we were suffering with terrible backache. Luckily it was very warm so didn’t require to use the duvet so layed that on the mattress to try and make it a bit more comfortable.

  I cannot rate this property highly enough. It was spotlessly clean upon arrival and the rooms were all large and roomy with really comfortable beds. Beautiful Egyptian cotton bedding and both bathrooms were bright, surgically clean with large soft white towels for our use. The kitchen is well stocked as were the board games that were all in perfect condition (a rarity in itself!). The owner has thoughtfully supplied a cordless vacuum in the lobby which we used daily to prevent the sand from going into the rooms. The beach was empty and our dogs had the best time! We even spotted a seal! Lovely restaurants within 30-50 mins drive too. We couldn’t wish for more. We will definitely be returning!

  We’ve just had a very enjoyable 3 nights at Fig Tree cottage.

  For two adults & a dog it’s a cozy little base, ideally situated right in the heart of Lyme with parking. However, there are a few things which would improve it even more. I would strongly recommend a hand rail into the bathroom. It was no problem for us, as we are able bodied but could be an issue for anyone who wasn’t so mobile. If I’m honest, the lack of Wi-Fi was a problem. If it were to be added to the cottage we would definitely be booking again & recommending to friends & family. Lastly, a better floor mat at the door. The current one is no good at all for wiping feet & dog paws! Over all, a lovely place to stay in our favourite place to visit.

  Had a lovely stay at Cherrywood Barn, everything was spot on.

  Our only problem was we could not figure how to work the oven and microwave as digital, difficult for older people like us but we had planned to eat out most of the time so not really a problem. We were very lucky with the weather so we're able to make the most of the lovely balcony and peaceful surroundings. Local pub a very short walk away and fantastic Sunday lunch. Owners Catherine and Derek were so nice and the Lemon cake and Apple Juice were so nice to have on arrival. Only thing we feel that could have improved our stay would be to have access to a couple of relaxing garden chairs to enjoy the garden. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.
