  This was my first time with Sykes and I would definitely use again!

  Booking was so easy. Got regular emails giving me all the information I needed - before, during and after! Had a tiny glitch during our stay and the response and timing was just superb - very impressive! Loved the star system and having booked a 4 star house I was not disappointed. Primrose Cottage was exactly as described. New refurbished it is clean, welcoming, cosy and has everything you need for an awesome holiday. Two very spacious rooms with lots of storage space (can be a rarety).. Light, airy, clean. Bathroom with shower upstairs was sufficient for our needs however this a large bathroom with bath downstairs too :-) Kitchen diner was just brilliant - SO well equipped. Big fridge/freezer. Great oven. Wine rack :-) Washing machine and dishwasher. Garden was perfect for afternoon sun and wine. Grass area for the dog and decking area with comfy chairs for just relaxing. Lots of pads, parasol, body board in outside storage. Accessed from patio doors from kitchen. The only tiny downside is you can't access the garden without coming through house. We were lucky with the weather so my dog was always clean and I put towels down on the cream carpet in the living room but if you have a dirty dog after a walk make sure you are prepared. Bailey dried off in garden before allowed in lounge area so no problem for us. And the kitchen has a lovely laminate floor so dog friendly. Lounge had a settee, chair and two bean bags with a great telly. Just perfect for relaxing in an evening. I was worried about the lack of parking on the drive but it really wasn't a problem. You can load/unload and there is cul de sac 20 seconds walk away where there was always parking. So please don't worry about this aspect! Highly recommend both Sykes AND the accommodation. Will definitely use again and hope the next house is just as perfect. Thanks for having us!

  We have been traveling to Cornwall for over 30 years, and we are delighted to say that Nappers Cottage is one of the best cottages we have ever stayed in, it is absolutely beautiful throughout.

  It is so comfortable to return back to in the evenings in order to relax and unwind after a busy day out sight seeing. The lounge and dinning rooms are very large/spacious, and even though there was only myself and my husband staying with out little dogs, there would be plenty of room for a full family to enjoy without living on top of each other. The kitchen is one of the best equipped I have seen, with an extensive range of pots, pans, crockery, utensils etc, there is a large fridge freezer for all your provisions, and an extensive selection of dogs bowls etc, Steve has organised everything beautifully and though of everything that you might need. The bedrooms are spacious, with lovely bedding, and the beds are so comfortable to sleep on. The bathroom is very large with an amazing large bath tub, and large separate shower cubicle. There is a large front garden which is shingled, and a patio back garden with tables and chairs. There is also plenty of parking outside on the roads, which were quiet for the majority of the time, with only the occasional car passing, so a very quiet location. Steve the owner was so helpful and always on hand if we needed anything, very easy and quick to contact/respond if required. We would not hesitate to return again, and or recommend to family and friends, what an absolutely lovely stay at Nappers cottage.

  Wow. My wife has managed holiday properties in the Scottish Borders and every box she looked for in a well managed property had been conclusively ticked in Primrose Cottage.

  The whole property was spotlessly clean, beautifully laid out and homely with a fully enclosed garden area to the rear. Bedrooms were comfortable with sufficient room for storage of clothes and beautifully quiet. The upstairs shower was best suited to a smaller person but that was more than compensated for by the full sized bathroom downstairs. Being a cottage of its era the stairs are quite narrow and comparatively steep compared to a modern house, maybe not best suited for someone with mobility issues. Parking was about 50 metres away due to access for neighbours. This didn't prove an issue during our stay and avoided having to negotiate the blind exit from the front drive. A mirror has been provided to assist with exiting the drive but it still felt like a leap of faith pulling out. Location was great with Hayle being a short walk away for shops with a good selection of local accessible areas for exercising our dog. All in all if we were to be returning to the area Primrose Cottage would definitely be on our 'wish list' of properties to return to

  We experienced problems during our stay regarding a terrible smell of drains.

  We tried to report it on the emergency phone number (Monday), it went to answerphone and we had no response. On Tuesday we called the Management Team and they were quick to respond. We believe someone visited the property, while we were out, as on returning, we could smell cleaning products. However, by the next morning, the smell was back. We emailed Sykes requesting they inform the Owner of the problem at the property. (Still waiting for a response.) Also, we sent Sykes a photo of the weeds, bindweeds and brambles near the seating area of the garden. We really liked the location of the property and feel it’s a shame we had these problems. Near the back door and in the upstairs and downstairs bathrooms the smell was very unpleasant. Whenever we were at the property we had all the doors and windows open and went to the extremes of getting up at 5.30am to air the property. By Thursday we’d had enough and left. We left a ‘polite notice’ for the cleaner to make them aware of our concerns.

  We loved staying at nappers cottage .

  The cottage is spacious and modern and beautifully decorated. The host even provided washing capsules ,liquid ,handwash and toilet rolls .. tea coffe milk and even Cornish crackers ! which was a godsend after a long drive so we didn't have to rush to the shops . The beds are comfy and we slept really well . Lovely hot shower and a bath if you need a soak ! The kitchen is well equipped for everything you need . We caught the bus to st Ives just at the top of the road and was only £10 for a roaming family day ticket. We did walk to the beach too - across the nature reserve which was lovely . The cottage is ideally situated to explore that end of Cornwall - we only had @30 min drive either way to porthcurno and kynance . Parking outside the cottage wasn't an issue either . Thank you for an amazing week - can't recommend nappers cottage enough ! :)
