Porth Cove, Porth

The place was amazing, amazing views, amazing house, almost everything was prefect. Would recommend and would stay again

We had a lovely week in this fantastic property, close to the beach and a lovely and modern. Though Id say the the kitchen wasnt very well equipped especially as the house accommodated up to 8 people and the amount we paid for the week! There was no oven gloves and only one shelf in the oven for example, all mentioned in previous reviews. The hot tub was lovely and we used it every night.

Great location, good facilities providing an enjoyable week in Newquay

Overall very good. Nice property and great location with great views and a 5min walk to the sandy cove which is perfect! sea does come in quickly though during the day. Only a pub and pizza place near the beach, so have to head into Newquay for any food shops, or have a online delivery done. Location is amazing other than the lack of a local shop where the pub is. Was worried reading other reviews about the cleaning, but was pretty good overall and house is well equipped with WasherDryer, hair dryers, clothes horse, iron and iron board, kettle and boiling water tap read below safety warning on this. SAFETY NOTE Kitchen mixer tap is a bit dangerous as no safety twist to stop children or even adults turning it on thinking its a hot tap just a plastic sign saying its boiling water but as it looks like a standard mixer tap and works the same way, everyone would just turn it on like normal. Some improvements that would make it perfect Better pillows on the beds Hooks on back of doors especially in the bathrooms no where to hang anything especially in the main bathroom only a small radiator to hang bits on. Toilet roll holders on the walls in all toilets Some safety measures on the hot boiling tap looks just like a hot tap and had a near miss Oven only has one shelf would be better to have 2 plus another oven tray and some oven gloves

We had a great week long stay at Porth Cove. Location of the property was great fantastic views from the property out over Porth beach and some amazing sunsets. Also liked the local area good options for fooddrinks and activities within 1015 minutes walk. Beach was great and perfect time to visit in early July as not too busy. First time visiting Cornwall but would definitely return, and stay at Porth Cove again without any hesitation.

The only things we found was nowhere to hang wetsuits up after use maybe some kind of rack would be good The other thing is the wooden bed, the screws came undone by the headboard while my daughter in it on the night before leaving. Luckily we had a tool kit with us and we tightened it up but might be worth changing the bed This is our 2nd stay with your house and its amazing thanks for letting us stay in it x

Views were great , house was not cleaned from the last guest, cobwebs behind door , no kitchen towels for cleaning, coffee machine not working , hot tub not heating up it said 8 hours to heat up left it on for 12 hours still not heating up, rubbish bins over flowing , one of the bedrooms lights not working after the first nigh one of the other residents dumped 4 bin bags one split opened and was all over the drive way had to clean it up as it was going everywhere , tryed to contact the phone number on info pack no answer and the sykescottages number kept on ringing. A bit disappointed after spending all that money , main reason for stay was the hot tub for the kids that could not be used as it would not heat up. I would not be using sykescottages again. It ruined our staycation. I dont normally like to complain but it had to be done this time. Better off staying at a 5 star hotel next time as theres more chances of things done when things go wrong .

The property is in a great location and is a comfortable new build but there are some things that have just not been thought through and some miss information. There are not enough towel hooks or places to hang towels in bedrooms. No bath mats were provided, so we had to use hand towels. The hot water tap is great. The games and hot tub were a huge bonus! The Sky Glass TV was not connected to Sky, so we could not watch normal TV channelswe did not want the cinema or sports, but it was not connected at all to any normal TV channels. We could login to netflix BBC player etc but no way of getting normal channels. What is the point of having a sky glass TV when you cannot get sky? Recycling. When we got there the recycling bin was overflowing this was not emptied on the Monday, we contacted Sykes and they advised that this service was not in place. The owners had no recycling collection service arranged. This is strange as it states in the property folder to put recycling in the bin. So the bin as full overflowing and no where to recycle. This is misinformation and not pretty when you arrive and there is rubbish all over the place!

Very difficult to speak to anyone, when there is an issue. The rubbish bins were full on are arrival and all over the floor due to birds ripping open bags. We picked it all up and put it in black bags. We kept are waste inside till it started to smell. We put it outside fri and when we woke sat morning it was everywhere. I messaged sky Cottages about this several times. I feel really sorry for the next people who arrive because the bin men won't pick up all the rubbish around the side and parking area.The handle in utility room comes off in hand as no screws either side. And the tall dust pan in kitchen broken. but that's small stuff.As for accommodation it was absolutely perfect for are needs. Views amazing, close to beach. Everything else was great except waste and sky telling me I moved the bins. Which I didn't.

This is a great place to stay. We really enjoyed our stay, with the beach a stones throw away. Very comfortable, neat and tidy place to stay with everything we needed as a family.

Amazing house and location Comfortable and had everything we needed. Will be booking for next year too

Everything was very high spec. We really enjoyed it.

Property was in an excellent location within a short walk from Porth Beach and certainly had a spectacular view from the balcony. It had everything we needed and more.

The property itself and the location were beautiful. Bedroom sizes were good, only comment would be that the storage in the master bedroom had no draw space you would be fine if you hung everything up. In the bedroom which had the 2 single beds in, there were draws but no hanging space. Would have been nice to have both options in all bedrooms. There were only 4 cereal bowls in the kitchen we were a party of 6, and several of the sandwich plates were chipped and so would recommend that these are replaced. Aside from the above, we had a fantastic time!

The bed in the small room needed to be slightly bigger but I appreciate that space in that room probably wouldnt accommodate. However, if the apartment is advertised as 4 bedrooms and 4 adult couples are staying it isnt ideal. We had 3 adult couples and a single adult so put the single adult in the double and a couple in the twin, which wasnt ideal but acceptable to us. Could a bigger double bed be put in the twin room and just a single bed be put in the small room which currently houses a small double? Also there wasnt anywhere to put clothes or hang them in the small room which was really frustrating. Again, space would be an issue for furniture possibly but just to have some hooks on the wall and a mirror would have been nice. We also felt the Lounge needed another large sofa to accommodate 7 adults there is certainly enough space. To hire the property isnt cheap and I just felt that it was slightly lacking in comfort for the price in relation to the size of the number of adults staying. There was also an issue with noise being generated by the hot tub motor which I tried to address with Sykes on the first day we were there but although I spoke to James and was told I would get a call back after he spoke to the owner I unfortunately didnt. I do appreciate that the property has only just opened for business and that there may well be little issues that crop up and I also want to stress that we did think that overall the property was very nice and in a fantastic location. It just needs to offer a little more comfort for the price.

This is an ideal holiday house in an excellent position with sea views. facilities are excellent and the hot tub is a great asset. All the appliances are of a high standard and easy to use. We highly recommend it

This property was the best one weve stayed in with regards for how well equipped the house was and how great the location was. I would definitely recommend Porth Cove.

We had such a fabulous holiday at Porth Cove. The location was perfect, literally just steps from the beach. Everything you need to feel at home was provided and we were looked after by the loveliest housekeeper Lucy, the place was spotless. We thoroughly enjoyed the views and hot tub. We would highly recommend Porth Cove to friends and family

Property was to a very high standard and all mod cons. We had a lovely stay and would definitely come back. Great location and such a short walk to the beach especially if you use the hidden steps next to the bus shelter. Thoroughly recommend this property
