  This apartment is perfect in every way.

  It feels like it is your own home. The view as you walk in to the lounge is spectacular. The furnishings are good quality and luxurious. The sofa is very spacious and comfortable and positioned perfectly so you can gaze out at the sea all day and night watching the changing sky. The TV had sky and netflix and it was very easy to connect to the wifi so our 16 year old was very pleased. The kitchen was well fitted with a dishwasher and washing machine, large fridge and freezer. If you choose to cook there are plenty of pots and even a cake tin if you felt like baking. As i said, it really does feel like a home from home. The lounge kitchen feels spacious and airy. The bedrooms too were beautiful, with thick, soft carpet. My daughter had the front room which was again spacious with plenty of wardrobe space and the ensuite had shelving so everything has a place. The master bedroom was stunning. Again, very large and the whole end wall are patio doors looking out to sea and the headland. The bedlinen was good quality with soft sheets and the bed extremely comfortable. There are plugs where you need them and a beautiful dressing table with a hairdryer and hair towel. Again a lovely touch. The apartment also has a number of games, dvds and books applicable for all ages. There was also cleaning products and dish cloths left with a couple of dishwasher tablets so you didn't have to rush out to buy these immediately. Another nice touch was that the fridge, had bread, eggs and milk and of course scones, cream and jam. There were tea bags, coffee and sugar sachets which allowed us to have a nice relax when we arrived after our long journey. The whole apartment was very clean and fresh and Denise who cares for the apartment was in contact all the time so if we had needed anything we could contact her. From the street you only see a doorway in but it is like a little gem at the top of the stairs and you are transported in to a lovely calm place. Another thing I forgot was that there is a cupboard with beach towels and a place to leave the sandy bits so they dont walk in to the rooms. The position is great too. A few yards to the entrance of the beach, the supermarket is very close and you are very close in to town. All in all, this place exceeded my expectations. I normally stay somewhere else and have done for years but we all agreed this apartment and it's location although not down on the beach is much better. Plus, you have the convenience of a parking permit so we just dropped our bags and parked up the car in the carpark opposite and enjoyed a week of relaxation. We will definitly be back! :)

  We visited "The View" last year and were blown away by this fabulous apartment.

  We couldn't wait to return! Our stay had been so easy last year with everything we needed in the apartment that packing for the week was a lot easier, I had no need to bring the kitchen sink! Additionally a parking permit is supplied with the benefit of parking close by. Communication is also great from both the owner Rebecca and Denise who not only keeps the apartment clean but is also available should you need her. Both are very friendly and obliging. I consider all these factors aid the enjoyment of a holiday. A year passed until it was possible for us to return to "The View" but I can say that it was just as wonderful as we had remembered it. The place of course has a stunning view which is unrivalled but additionally the apartment is situated in a great location.It is clean, thanks to Denise and is equipped to a high standard. A real home from home. The master bedroom feels luxurious and glamorous and again has that fantastic view out of the double doors. It is very easy to stay in this apartment and not leave as it is so peaceful. All you hear are the waves below and the sea gulls calling out. If you want to escape and relax then this is the perfect place for you. If you enjoy walks on the beach then just a few yards walk via a slope leads to the beach. The shops, restaurants and town are all within easy walking distance. It is the perfect place to stay and we will be back again as soon as we can. On a separate note about the town, I have visited Newquay as a child, teenager , new mother and now a mother of teenagers. I have seen Newquay change over the years and go through some darker days which are clearly behind it, but it has never altered my love of this town with it's beautiful clean beaches and it's welcoming locals. The perfect mix of this luxurious, spacious apartment and stunning Newquay will keep us returning for years.

  The property was exactly as described and was full of high quality furnishings and items throughout.

  Some lovely touches such as the scones and cream on arrival and the picnic basket and binoculars, although we had taken our own as I enjoy watching activity out at sea. The blankets were really useful too as although it was lovely and sunny, it did get a little chilly when the sun was setting so these were handy to wrap up in. It’s on the 3rd floor which was a struggle on the first day with the luggage but absolutely worth it and no problem for the rest of the week. Really close to supermarkets and the town centre with everything in walking distance and close to some lovely places to eat. The bed in the main bedroom was so comfy, we both slept soundly for the whole week, annoyed at myself for not seeing which make of mattress is on the bed! Kitchen well equipped with all that you would need with lovely crockery and glasses, again very evident of the high quality. If I was going to have to say a negative, and this would be me just being very bloody picky, the toilet stand in the en-suite was corroded and the seagulls leave a lot of deposits on the furniture on the balcony. Cushions are provided which we used but brought in when not in use to prevent further deposits landing. There was also plenty of cleaning equipment and products so we gave everything a clean down but being on a cliff top the inevitable is inevitably going to happen. This did not spoil our stay at all but thought I’d mention it for anyone who may not appreciate our feathered friends. We loved this place so much with the views and the sunsets we didn’t want to leave and will definitely be looking to book again. Thank you Rebecca and Denise.

  The listing does not make it clear that the apartment is at the back of the block and does not have a view of Fistral Beach, which is the main reason we chose this apartment.

  Whilst there is a partial view of the sea the main view is of a car park. The apartment is in need of an update - the tv is not a smart tv so unable to view any of our streaming services; there is no smart speaker or radio; sofa incredibly uncomfortable and not large enough for 4 adults to sit comfortably; the gas fire is incredibly difficult to light; there is only outside seating for 2 people; one of the windows in bedroom does not shut; the fridge has mould under the milk shelf which cannot be cleaned as the shelf is super glued in place; there is no coffee maker or large cafetiere; no hairdryer; no toiletries provided in the bathroom; there is no wardrobe in the 2nd bedroom and the wardrobe in the other does not have a hanging space for dresses so they get bunched up on the shelf; there is only 1 bedside lamp in each bedroom. Whilst some of these are being picky, put together they made our stay less enjoyable and comfortable than it should have been for the price we paid. On the plus side we could not fault the response from Sykes when we contacted them to say that the bed had not been zipped together (as requested), that there were several light bulbs blown in the lounge and kitchen and that the shower head was almost falling off the wall into the bath. They sent housekeeping and maintenance the same day and resolved these issues. The apartment is in a great location and very easy to walk to the beach and town.

  After spending a week at this amazing apartment, we can totally understand why it's called 'The View'.

  In reality it should be called, 'Wow, The View' as it's just so amazing. The second you walk in it just takes your full attention.   We enjoyed a week here late September and can happily say that we would go back again. The extra covid requirements are being taken and the apartment is ideally situated. The parking directly across from the apartment is perfect and secure and we never had any issues getting a place. There is plenty to do near by and the town centre is just minutes walk away as are local supermarkets. The apartment is secure and very nicely decorated. The bed was just so comfy and we spent plenty of time out on the balcony. There was only 2 of us but you could easily have 4 people staying, there is plenty of space. There is everything you need in the apartment and what shopping you do need can be bought very locally. Rebecca and Denise looked after us so well and checked that we had all that we needed, nothing as too much trouble and the cream tea on arrival was a lovely surprise and greatly appreciated. The Great Western Beach is literally right below you and it is such a beautiful beach. We enjoyed strolling along & even braved going in! Absolutely freezing lol. We highly recommend The View and hope to return in the near future.
