Very clean and comfortable. The owner was very responsive to queries and was able to resolve my issue the same day. All in all, a lovely break, despite the weather!

Firstly, the cottage was lovely. Though I would not book with Sykes again⦠the emails were good as far as information but if you need to speak to someone from there then it was almost impossible to actually speak to a person.. ⦠this was after I emailed at least twice, utilised their whatâs app Facility - no reply on any of these. It felt like once Iâd paid no one could be bothered. I called eventually after finding a number and got cut off. Called again to be passed around. VERY hard work and not very professional. The cottage was lovely - the BIGGEST gripe I had was that cleaners had been in yet I couldnât believe the amount of dog hairs on the sofa that were quite obvious and I had to get the hoover out. It is something I feel strongly about as I donât let our dog on sofas. I just felt that cleaning the settee would have been done before we arrived. We did need the heating on at least 2 evenings and the heaters were quite difficult to understand and work out. Overall nice cottage and the location is beautiful as youâre half way up the great Orme but for me, customer service was the letdown.

The cottage having a charging point was one of the main selling points and one of the many reasons we chose to return for a second consecutive year. The charger takes any anxiety out of exploring the area which is really beautiful if you have an electric car. I contacted the owner about the charger and an electrician came around on Sunday to repair the charger so I could use it to charge my car, the local charging infrastructure isn't great. The electrician said he would have been up to repair it on the saturday but it was really wet and rainy that day so not really safe to do the repairs. The owner also offered me the use of his alternative private charger down in Llandudno itself which was much appreciated but I had managed to put some volts into my car from a leisure center charger while we were out shopping in Llandudno. The cottage was much the same as the last time we stayed with the exception of a different sofa which had been replaced for a newer one. The cottage is an adequate clean, tidy, warm and functional base to chill and explore the surrounding area, it's in a great location a short walk to the copper mine and not far from the Great Orme Summit. In my experience if you have an issue text the owner and I'm sure he will do his very best to quickly sort it for you. Thanks for a nice stay.
