What our customers say about their holidays

• Jennifer - Verified booking

  It was a very nicely decorated and comfortable cottage with a beautiful garden overlooking the sea at Tintagel.

  Unfortunately there was no internet access, and even though it didn't bother us too much the owners should have been honest about this before our arrival. We cannot fault the hospitality upon arrival and the "treat box" that had been prepared for us. My husband and I have stayed in other Sykes Cottages where there's been a folder with information about the workings of appliances, and a brief overview about the local area. Unfortunately, we couldn't get the hobs on the oven to work properly and are not familiar with heat conducting pans and saucepans. Suffice to say we ate out every night, as to plough through instruction manuals to understand the workings of equipment was not our idea of a holiday!! we ended up heating things up in the microwave. This would've been a problem if we'd been staying at the barn for longer. An ironing board, iron and hairdryer would've also been a useful addition. Apart from this my husband and I did enjoy our peaceful and restful stay in this rural location. I hope our observations will be useful for the owners, and if these small improvements were made this would be a very sought after little nook.

  We already fed back regarding extra hooks in the bathroom for long dressing gowns and a grab rail in the shower to avoid slips.

  The apartment was modern and well appointed and in a great position for exploring. The car parking was great and everything there we needed. A small bottle of milk would have been appreciated upon arrival. There was plenty of washing up liquid and soap etc but no salt, cooking oil or tea bags so be prepared and bring your own. Village shops expensive as expected. There is a Lidl and Aldi in Wadebridge to get groceries for the week if required. We are two older ladies so the visit to Tintagel Castle on the first day proved exhausting and really too much for us although enjoyable we suffered for the rest of the week with sciatica and aches and pains ... be warned! Local pubs are good but food very expensive so we cooked in the apartment. There are good facilities including a big Wok like pan that was great. We had a week and still didn't explore all the local little shops or even the Arthurian Centre with was only across the road! There is a lot to do round and about and if you are fit and like to walk you will love it. Ideal base for exploring.

  A lovely cottage in an absolutely beautiful and tranquil setting.

  The facilities in Millers House are in keeping with the character of the building, not pristine but that makes the cottage very homely and welcoming, both myself and my daughter felt settled immediately and had a wonderful stay. Mr Evans, the owner is most friendly and helpful and a very nice host. Finding a criticism is really difficult. The only thing is, and this is such a small thing, the cooking facilities were all there and in great order but I was a little surprised there were no condiments like salt, pepper, cooking oil etc (you wouldnt think to bring it with you). It wasn't an issue as we had to go shopping for the fresh food we couldn't bring, so we simply bought that too. We left it at the property as a gift to the next occupants. As I say, it's such a small thing so it doesn't detract from our experience at all, it's such a lovely place I'm almost embarrassed to mention it. Thank you so much for our wonderful stay, I should have booked 2 weeks at least.

  We had a great stay at Miller’s House.

  This was our second time staying at this location and both times have been superb. The house was lovely and warm (in February), was immaculately clean, had everything we needed, comfy beds, great shower, decent WiFi, parking just outside, plenty of utensils in the kitchen, lots of sitting space. It’s worth asking or learning about the history of this place that is believed to date from the 18th century. The place still has character that fits that. I really encourage anyone staying to also explore the grounds as it is really set in a stunning valley with a river running through. The place is gated so you have your own private part of this valley and can leave to walk further up it through the stunning back garden. This place isn’t just about the house. Mr Evans is very hospitable and will help you with request or queries. Will definitely be back again.

  We come down three times a year now because we love it so much, the weather is always kind to us, the local people are just so welcoming, the scenery is fantastic and everything you need is within spitting distance.

  It caters for all as if you like interesting shops there is Tintagel and Boscastle, if you prefer nature's wonders there is St Nectans Glen, if you want beaches and the more commercial there's Bude and plenty of other beaches not too far away, there's plenty of local cafes, pubs and restaurant's to choose from and cover all of your dietary needs. Millers House is like a second home to us now and Robin the owner is a lovely man who will always great you with a welcoming smile and make sure you have everything you need. The world and atmosphere changes as soon as you come through the gate, the busy outside world fades into the trees, the marvellous bird song and sounds of babbling streams. You breath the fresh air in and instantly relax. We wish we could stay forever as we have made some good friends down here but as the Terminator said "we'll be back"
