What our customers say about their holidays

• Julie - Verified booking

  We have stayed in this house over many years for holidays before new ownership last year.

  Standards still as high, with some more modern additions ( new settee, dishwasher, and useful sensor light outside front door etc) Key box outside easy to use. Kept well informed by emails from Sykes cottages , and Sykes staff very friendly & efficient on phone calls to book. Will definitely try to book Quay cottage again for future holidays, as its always been our 'little home from home' and still feel so comfortable there under the new ownership. Perfectly positioned near to seafront, with flat walks to seafront, shops, bars & restaurants, Poole Park etc and can park the car in own driveway in front of house. Thanks for a lovely week.

  Overall, a very positive experience - We've stayed here so often that it seems almost like a second home, and so much that we want to see or do is within easy walking distance.

  We have just a couple of very minor quibbles that should not distract from our overall satisfaction: 1. The shower caddy for holding soaps, etc. was inconvenient for shorter people. A small shelf would be preferable. 2. The towels apparently had been laundered with a strongly scented detergent. Could a more neutral alternative be found? 3. We were puzzled by the instructions to empty the lint filter on the washer/dryer, as we could not find one either on the machine itself, or in the instruction manual for it.

  Enjoyed our stay in a lovely cottage. Local information was very useful. We enjoyed meals at The Cliff, The Scott Arms in Kingston and cheap but good Sunday lunch at The Red Lion. The weather was good, so we enjoyed the open-top bus trip to Christchurch beach and walks at Weymouth, Kimmerridge, Durdle Door and lots of the coastal path. We loved getting the steam train and went to two Bournemouth Football matches.

  We really enjoyed our stay.

  It was a very hot week and I was pleased the house did not get too hot. Would have been nice to have curtains in the bedrooms as I found the blinds flapped about a lot in the hot windy weather. (This is a minor point). Everything was very clean. The location is quiet but close to the front and the centre. If we come again we would bring some DVDs (we have got rather used to smart TV) again this is a minor point.

  Been to Dorset many times - this has been the wettest! However we made the most of the mornings in Arne and Monkey world. Great Cottage in a great location for the rest of Dorset. We celebrated 37 years of marriage and cooked great local produce for our dinner - no need to go to a fancy restaurant if you can cook! Thanks it's been brilliant.
