Reviews
My parents stayed here in September and had to fully clean the place before they could use it. As you can see from their photos it was filthy, mouldy, overgrown. They were only given the cleaner’s (ironic) contact details, so felt their only option was to dig in and clean themselves as they were booked for 3 weeks. It took them a total of 14 hours cleaning and had to purchase all their own cleaning products. Mum refused to use the oven at all so they were forced to eat out. The “cleaner” was meant to come every week but only appeared once during a 3 week “holiday”. When dealing with the owner via Sykes they offered a paltry £50 comp which is not only an insult but also does not come close to what the owners are saving on cleaning, gardening and window cleaning.
The cottage was very very clean, fully equipped, cosy and in a very rural peaceful location with stunning views over the Needles rocks and lighthouse. Very convenient for Yarmouth, Freshwater and the coastal path. Definitely worth a visit.......!
