“This was our second visit and it didn't disappoint.”

It's comfortable, well located and extremely dog friendly. The cottage has everything you need and a lovely garden with relaxing views over the golf course. We will be back again.

“Property was superb!”

Would definitely stay here again and will most likely do so if our daughter ends up going to Falmouth Uni which was one of the purposes of the trip. Property was in a super location, looking out onto fields and the back garden not overlooked by any other property. Very peaceful location. Able to park the car right outside, and the path way out of the location, across the golf course and to the coast line was an ideal situation for us being we had a dog with us - I covered some 49 miles of walking during our 7 day stay and most of it was along the coastline or on the beaches. The property itself was just right for the 3 'humans' staying. Two good bedrooms, one bathroom, one lounge area and a kitchen. None of the rooms are particularly spacious but they weren't too small either. The condition of the property was excellent, was a little nervous having our dog there as even though he is very well behaved, we were a little nervous of claws making marks but it seemed to be okay. Also the rear garden had a lovely condition lawn so we hoped the dog wee's wouldn't damage it. We did water where the dog went but in most cases, we took him out for walks. But the fact the property allows dogs means we wouldn't have been staying there otherwise. Kitchen was well stocked, only very minor niggle was that there were just 2 tall glasses which if there were 3 or 4 staying, there wasn't enough. All in all, a very enjoyable stay and we'd defintitely look to stay there again if back in Falmouth.

“Willow cottage was in such a great location.”

Close to everything but felt like you were miles away in the peace and quiet. Lovely safe garden for our dog and great walktk Falmouth, more uphill on the way back but it's worth it!

Debbie September 2021

“Willow is a lovely comfortable accommodation, very spacious with lovely little garden, very quiet and relaxing place ideal for the perfect getaway.”

- Debbie, September 2021
Nicola September 2021

“Lovely little cottage which made a good base for visiting Cornwall.”

Had everything we needed and was secure for the our dog. Would definitely return.

- Nicola, September 2021
Marian September 2021

“The cottage was located in a very quiet and peaceful location, with lovely views too.”

Very well equipped , and did have iron and hairdryer too! Only thing wrong, very small second bedroom and beds in there very small.

- Marian, September 2021
Theresa July 2021

“The garden was perfect for the dog,and for sitting and relaxing in.”

The walks to the beaches and coastal path, all on the doorstep . A very quiet and peaceful spot. Perfect retreat after all the tourist hotspots. We loved it. The approach road was a little challenging with the potholes, but we’ve accepted that as part of the reason it’s peaceful and out of the way.

- Theresa, July 2021
Teresa June 2021

“It's rare that a property truly does exceed expectations but Willow did.”

It is spacious and very comfortable (especially the beds). It is very well equipped and was very clean and tidy. The garden is excellent for dogs, being completely enclosed and has lovely views across the golf course. Everyone around the location was very friendly and we felt very welcome. We will definitely come again but probably in late May/early June or September to ensure that the beaches are accessible all the time. Having said this we found everywhere was very dog friendly and fully understand the beach restrictions regarding dogs in the height of the summer season.

- Teresa, June 2021
Rachel June 2021

“This was our 3rd visit to Willow Barn and again we were not disappointed.”

The cottage is always spotlessly clean and the enclosed garden is perfect for our two small dogs. We look forward to our next visit.

- Rachel, June 2021
Natalie June 2021

“Great location.”

“Settees were very uncomfortable.”

Dinning chair heavy to move to sit down. Very dark inside lounge area no sun or view which was disappointing.

Andrew May 2021

“Our stay at the Willows was just what we needed.”

Very spacious and well equipped. Beautiful countryside. Only one negative The road leading up to Pennance Barnes. This road needs some work. The potholes are car killers. Don't travel to fast down this lane.

- Andrew, May 2021
Surinder April 2021

“Willow barn was perfect - well equipped, immaculate throughout and in a beautiful private and peaceful location a stone through away from the coastal path.”

We would love to return in the summer.

- Surinder, April 2021
Georgina September 2020

“Willow was private, with a secure garden, ideal for our dog.”

Been near to other holiday barns also made it seem friendly and safe. Furnishings were modern and in good order and the whole cottage well maintained and spotlessly clean. It was easy to find and ideally situated near Swanpool Beach and Falmouth. We enjoyed a drive along the beautiful Helford River, exploring its delightful little coves and creeks. Another day was spent exploring Kynance Cove and The Lizard. Even one wet and windy day we found we could happily hang out in the cottage, reading or watching television, as it was so cosy and relaxing there.

- Georgina, September 2020
Cheryl August 2020

“Willow was a lovely property in a nice quiet setting and the garden was totally enclosed so the dog was happy to go out without us having to watch her.”

The weather wasn’t great but we went out each day and our two granddaughters went to the beach every day and we visited St Ives twice which is very pretty. Falmouth is a nice quaint holiday town and definitely worth a visit. We had a great holiday and would certainly book with Sykes again

- Cheryl, August 2020
Peter August 2020

“We were really pleased with the holiday home.”

The living space and facilities were excellent. The photos in the listing give a good impression of what to expect.

Elizabeth August 2019

“We had asked for the twins to be zipped to form a King size and had confirmation of this however that was not the case.”

This has been resolved.

- Elizabeth, August 2019
Toni April 2019

“Well we have had a number of Sykes cottages and they have all been really really good if not perfect in most ways and we have always enjoyed and had a really good rest and lovely time.”

However with Willow the kitchen was a NIGHTMARE... so very small and totally unmanageable. If you turned around you bumped into one side. If you made a mistake of having a door open you suffered for it. Also if both of us tried to do something we’ll forget it completely. I know a lot of people always eat out but we like to do a little of both and certainly for a couple of days stay in and rest ... well this just didn’t happen .. so sadly NO we would not go back again. Also I do ring up during my holiday there to Sykes and got no response from the young lady dealing with me most upset as Sykes are always usually so goood and helpful... sorry that this is a saga but you have asked for feedback a couple of times ...

- Toni, April 2019
Judy February 2019

“We really enjoyed our stay at Willow cottage.”

With the beauty of the Cornish countryside all around and a very short walk to the coast path across the glorious golf course, made staying here perfect for our break in Falmouth. The cottage was very well equipped and comfortable, with an enclosed rear garden, making it brilliant for our dog.....we will certainly return.

- Judy, February 2019
Lesley November 2018

“It was an excellent cottage , well equipped and was so lovely to , that they had got milk and butter and cake when we arrived.”

There was also washing up liquid,towels and toiletries. What more can you ask for.

- Lesley, November 2018
Sarah October 2018

“Great house, everything there that you could possibly need.”

Fantastic location, great walks from doorstep just disappointed that the house could of been cleaner! Floors throughout were dirty they needed a good wash as socks and feet picked up the dirt! Toilet flush needs to be looked at but apart from that the house was comfortable, warm and cosy.

- Sarah, October 2018
Jenny September 2018

“We loved our stay in Willow, it met and exceeded our expectations.”

Great secure garden for our young Border Terrier made life easy, wonderful walks on the doorstep, beautiful setting and views, very well equipped cottage, just perfect. We had a small problem, needed help with the TV, the response from Sykes was immediate and in fact the Owner rang us from his holiday to talk us through what we had to do. Excellent customer care. Thank you and we hope to revisit soon.

- Jenny, September 2018
Alison September 2017
