“Chris the owner, was contactable during our stay and answered queries within a reasonable time.”

The beds are 10/10 comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked, even has cleaning stuff available. Lovely quiet area with lots of amazing places to visit within a reasonable distance. 10/10 would recommend.

“The property smelt damp when we arrived, despite opening all the doors an windows the smell never went away.”

The tv kept turning itself off, we contacted the owner, he lived a long way away, but offered to buy a new one and expected us to collect it and set it up, we refused, he then said he would try to get someone to fix it, but it may take time. My partner had a look and discovered there was a problem with the ariel, we advised the owner and heard no more from him. One morning we discovered a black creature in the sink in the kitchen, we belive it to be a large about 3", cockroach. On the day we left we discovered a slug on the carpet in the living room.

- Joyce, May 2024

Your version of events not strictly true, on being told of fault on TV I said I would contact somebody to come and have a look but could not say how quick that would be you insisted that you where not going out due to the bad weather and wanted an immediate response I then offered to buy a new TV (the old one is only 10 months old) if I could not get hold of him to come straight away, but it would mean you collecting from town about 2 miles away. A TV these days self install but you declined. Within 30 minutes before I had a response from the friend I had phoned, I then get a phone call from Sykes asking how I was dealing with the problem whick they seemed happy with but then asked me at your request what COMPENSATION I was willing to give! You then texted me saying you had found the ariel cable was not pushed fully into the wall socket and TV was now working ok. So I replied I would wait to hear from you if you still have the fault before I get anybody round and you replied OK, that you where of to have lunch at Jamacia Inn because weather had eased off a bit. I have not heard from you since so assumed every thing was ok. I was very disappointed to hear you had left all your dog poo bags outside the bungalow rather than placing them in the 240 litre dust bin or the on site dog poo bin near site entrance after receiving complaints from fellow owners.

Timothy July 2023

“Lovely comfy place.”

Failed to connect to WiFi. Sat nav directions incorrect. Fridge didn't keep things cold enough. On a positive note, it was very clean, with all the facilities needed, and a great spot for touring.

- Timothy, July 2023

Thank you for your feedback upon checking out the fridge it was found that it had been turned down and on resetting it was ok with freezer unit freezing as normal. Wi Fi instructions are listed in the information booklet on how to connect or my contact details are readily available within the bungalow for any help required in connecting. Property Owner

Susan September 2022

“Lovely location, great communication , Bungalow was very clean clean and was full of essentials.”

My only issue was the smell of damp ( owner had a dehumidifier to try and help)

- Susan, September 2022

Thank you for your feed back but very suprised by your damp comment . The property has a air filtration system which was renewed earlier this year and as long as this has not been swiched off! coupled with the dehumidifier and other guide lines are followed ie keep windows on latch etc using extractor when cooking with the current weather there should not be any chance of damp at this time of year. Property Owner
Kay September 2021

“Very clean , sofa's need replacing ,I would go back .”

- Kay, September 2021

Thank you for your comments the sofa's were replaced in October after being on order for 12-15 weeks. Property Owner
Carolann September 2021

“We where not happy about the mould in the bedroom and bathroom.”

There were hairs on the shower mat and sink tap.the internet was hit and miss. The dehumidifier turning on and off all day and night was quite loud this is what the owner put in place to combat the mould instead of curing the problem. Here were Several comments in the visitor book about the mould this can cause health problems.

- Carolann, September 2021
Sandra August 2021

“A lovely location peaceful and rural.”

Property damp despite dehumidifier running all the time. Only facility onsite village inn wasn't open.

- Sandra, August 2021

Thank you for your feedback. The lodge has an air filtration system present as well as the dehumidifier which is normally sufficient. Although there is a lot of moisture in the air within Cornwall, it is always advisable to close the adjoining doors when cooking or using the bathroom for ventilation in a lodge this size. I noted that you have marked the comfort level down in your feedback and I'm pleased to confirm there are new sofa's on their way and should be delivered this October. I must also point out that the Village Inn is not part of the lodge site, just located nearby. Property Owner
Richard July 2021

- Martin, July 2021
Jacqueline June 2021

“The property was clean and tidy, had notices of covid procedures in place.”

Park was quiet and well kept. Good base for exploring Cornwall. Only negative is the sofas could do with updating but overall the property had everything we needed and more.

- Jacqueline, June 2021
Natalie May 2021

“Lovely little cottage/bungalow, general really clean, however when we came back from a day out for the first half of the week and it would always smell of wet dog.”

On the Wednesday we had the morning in so opened the windows and I gave it a really good vac, which seem to work. I know it a dog friendly place however a good airing is all that was needed shouldbhave been a easy fix. The Internet wasn't great but didn't need it that much.

- Natalie, May 2021
Ivan September 2020

“This is the forth time running that we have had holidays with Sykes cottages and you have picked us another great one and I will definitely look to having next years one in fact I have been looking on Sykes for a cottage already somewhere up north now as we have done the Isle Of White, Dorset,Somerset, and the last one in Cornwall I think either North York moors or Northumberland next My brother in law and sister in law always trust me to find a very nice place to stay but I put my trust in Sykes and they come up trumps every time so thanks very much again.”

Yours. Ivan. McGahan.

Clive August 2020

“The bungalow was in a quiet area and we had some of the best nights sleep.”

The bungalow was well equipped for a self catering holiday and it was in a convenient place to go out and visit the attractions in Cornwall. Wifi was sufficient for what we needed.

- Clive, August 2020
Yasmin July 2020

“Turning right to go to liskeard , there was no clear vision of traffic to the left because the exit of the site was on a bend .”

This we found very troubling, however the site was a lovely , clean ,quiet place to stay .

- Yasmin, July 2020
Antje October 2019

“Tranquility is the right name for this bungalow.”

We were almost alone there with the brook and river and all sorts of wild animals next to us. The bungalow was quite comfy with all facilities provided but no rubbish bags, tea and coffee or spices for cooking. There is a pub nearby in walking distance and several supermarkets are in the town that can easily be reached by car. As the bungalow is situated near water, there are lots of insects around outside. Lots of board games, books and DVDs were provided but the TV-DVD connection cable did not work properly sometimes and new remote control batteries were required. The wi-fi was good but certain devices might not work with it. The beds were soft and clean. The heating worked well and the electric fireplace was fantastic. We enjoyed our stay there. Thank you.

- Antje, October 2019
Thomas August 2019
