What our customers say about their holidays

  We were apprehensive about our stay having read previous negative comments however the property itself was well equipped and tastefully decorated with a spacious living room, kitchen diner and bathroom, beds were comfortable as were the settees.

  The double was smaller than the twin but probably because it had an en suite. The property was ‘reasonably clean’ -previous food splash marks in the kitchen and dusty units and dead spiders in the living room were a shame and much from the broken extractor fan in the main bathroom was on the tiles. Minor little things needed addressing such as every pair of curtains had hooks missing or were hanging off the end of the poles, the blind in the twin room had been previously broken therefore didn’t go fully down and the towels needed replacing. The property is in a housing estate which could put people off but it wasn’t a problem to us had two good parking spaces and within easy walk to the harbour. Sadly our major negative, was the property is a semi detached and the neighbours, of whom there appeared to be many, were washing clothes outside with a washing stone (obviously their culture) after 9pm which was extremely loud and would go on for over an hour. There was alot of noise from within their house late at night (past 11pm) and kept our child awake who was in the adjoining bedroom to their house. Sadly based on this experience (you can’t chose your neighbours!) we would not choose to stay here again which is a shame as it’s value for money and spacious.

  A great apartment with a lovely harbour view, centrally located and within easy walking distance of shops (there is a Tesco Metro within a few minutes' walk), restaurants and the beach.

  It looked exactly as it does on the website and was very clean. We chose the apartment for accessibility issues. It was great to have the living space on one floor, a walk in shower and lift access. It was in a quiet location, despite being so close to the centre of the town. The apartment is well equipped but you do need to bring or buy things like dishwasher tablets and toilet rolls (as they supplied 2 of each for a weeks' stay). For the price we paid, I would expect for these to be included. Personally, I would prefer a more toned-down décor with practical furnishings and accessories. It's very blingy!!! The only real negative was the on-site parking...when they warn you that your car needs to be within certain dimensions, they mean it! Mine was slightly longer and it took me a few days to work out how to get in and out without too many problems! There is a free parking permit for another car park, but it was important for us to be able to park on-site.

  The property is ideally suited on the ground floor as my husband can not do stairs.

  And next to the harbour to sit and watch the world go by. However, the apartment should be listed accommodates 3 as there certainly isn’t enough room in either bedroom for 4 people. The angle of the wardrobe in the double room is so close to the bed you cannot walk past it without bumping into it. Ventilation is poor as the window is set deep into the ledge so you have to bend your upper body to reach the handle. We slept in the twin room, not bad apart from the mould spots on the nets. There were cobwebs hanging from the ceiling in the kitchen/living area. The kitchen is totally devoid of basic utensils and not very clean either. The shower cubicle is so small you cannot turn round once you are in there, even children would have difficulty using it. Totally inadequate and not fit for purpose. We were so disappointed as we have always booked our holidays through Dream Cottages and their properties, apart from this one, have always been first class

  The place was like most holiday rentals and ok.

  Clean and with most things we needed. Good WiFi service Disappointing there was no toothbrush charger/ razor point in the bathroom which is pretty standard in most bathrooms nowadays. The garage space was great storage and actually the coolest room. However it was awfully hot in the bedroom which is in the roof space and was impossible to keep cool. A tiny fan was provided but it was more a desk fan so made no difference. As others have said the bed needs replacing it’s awfully soft and I came home with a bad back. The photo is a fare representation of the lack of space on one side of the bed but I hadn’t appreciated it and getting into a hot soft bed from the end each time was a pain. As others have said it needs a larger sofa. It’s a small 2 seater so very small for two people who are actually not overweight. The number of stairs would mean people with mobility issues might struggle. Close to the beach and the town.

  1st use washing machine broke.

  Office was closed. Took over 20 mins to get through the next day. The following day engineer came out. He couldn’t sort it. My clothes were still inside in dirty water. Dreams offered to collect, wash and dry clothing. I was impressed. The clothes came back in a bag. I called dreams and thanked them. Emptied bag to find clothes still unwashed and damp and smelling. I was very disappointed and annoyed. Their communication was really bad. Electrician finally got the machine working. It took several phone calls to get this sorted. All of which took minimum of 20 minutes to answer. The three green settees were really uncomfortable. No cushions either. Dirt and dust behind settees and dirty tissues behind the radiator. Beds were comfy . Kitchen well equipped. Outside front space untidy and unwelcoming. Considering we couldn’t enter the property until 5 pm I feel the sub agent involved have let Sykes down.
