Gannet Watch

The accommodation was really perfect.

Everything worked fine. There were no problems with the hot water in the kitchen or the bathroom. The bed was very comfortable.

Fantastic place, wonderful scenery, already booked for next year.

Our 3rd stay at Gannet Watch and it didn't disappoint.

The apartment has everything we need and whilst the weather wasn't brilliant, the location, facilities and welcoming cream tea ensured the break got off to a wonderful start. The views from the window of the beach and the sea are magical even on a dull misty morning and we had a lovely relaxing break. Many thanks

We thoroughly enjoyed our week's stay, It is a wonderfully comfortable, peaceful and well-equipped apartment in a great location with superb views, and just a short stroll from Coverack village.

We love Gannet Watch.

It is such a comfy apartment with fantastic views in a peaceful location. Thank you for the lovely welcome tray. We will be back.

Amazing location perfect for relaxing

Very comfortable accommodation with all facilities in an apartment with beautiful sea views from every window.

It was our 2nd stay here and unlikely to be our last...peaceful setting on a remote headland where we could relax and unwind..despite the weather!

Beautiful place, clean with spectacular sea views.

Very much out of the way as described. Local shopping desperately needed as described.

Had a lovely stay,would love to return.

Amazing view,lovely grounds and short walk to the beach.Nice surprise on arrival of flowers,tea,coffee and biscuits.would highly recommend.

Love Gannet Watch, a regular holiday spot for us.

Views are amazing, comfy bed, good shower, well equipped. Situated on the coastal path, with lovely little beach below, great for a swim. Thank you for the tea, coffee, milk, biscuits & flowers. (Also the washing up liquid, sink soap & toilet rolls.) Already rebooked for October.

Idyllic location with stunning views.

Small beach and nice village close by. Good reading material and up to date information about events, wildlife, geology etc in the apartment. Very comfortable matresses enable a good sleep in a quiet area. Thanks to the owner for the welcome gifts.

This holiday apartment was just perfect .

We were blown away by the views the minute we walked in . The welcome flowers , milk and biscuits was also a nice touch . The apartment was clean and had everything we needed . Also a comfy bed . Was so nice to go bed and listen to the sound of the sea , and have an evening walk down to the village or the beach . We loved this place and also loved coverack . Can’t wait to come back ! There is so much to do in the area and so many lovely walks we didn’t have time to do them all . Thank you

One word fantastic

We had a lovely stay here at Gannets watch.

Lovely clean apartment with everything we needed including a cream tea.

Beautiful property in stunning location.

I did not realise that there was no dishwasher but there was only the two of us so it was not a problem! Very peaceful holiday.

Excellent stay as ever - our 5th time I think.

Lovely apartment, great views & very convenient for Coverack, the Lizard & other Cornwall 'hot spots'.

We loved Gannet Watch.

The sea views were outstanding - a steady stream of sailing boats, swimmers at low tide, etc The apartment was cosy and well equipped and felt quite spacious for 2. Thanks very much for the welcome cream tea too! (We didn’t use the washing machine as never had the right change!)

This property did not disappoint, a wonderful apartment in a stunning location.

We arrived to find it spotlessly clean, very welcoming and the owners had even left a care package of tea, coffee, biscuits and flowers. It was the little touches that made this property so lovely to stay in, you really felt like it was a home away from home. Would highly recommend and we can’t wait to come again. 10/10 *****

Third year back not as clean as the last few years Lots of spiderwebs in corners not normally there otherwise very good .

Nice touch of welcome pack Seagull was more annoying this year

I am disappointed with Sykes themselves when contacting etc however our stay in this lovely apartment was faultless.

Such a wonderfully clean and well appointed apartment. The quality of the towels and linen and such thoughtfulness in providing absolutely everything you could possibly need or require. I hope I can save and afford to stay here again, it was just lovely. The resident seagull who was sitting outside the window was not our fault! It must have been fed previously, tapping on the window for food was must amusing. We did not fee him! Leaving the mess outside the window was a shame and hopefuly washed off. Thank you to the owners of this apartment... a great and most appreciated stay in your lovely apartment.. just perfect! Jenni

Our 3rd visit, we just love this apartment and location.

The flat was warm and cozy with amazing views. The cream tea on arrival was much appreciated.

We love Gannett's Watch.

We are regulars there. Small and compact it is a perfect base for a rest and for exploring the Lizard. We particularly appreciate the 'small touches' - the beautiful flowers that greet you on arrival. The clotted cream and the scones, then a few selected Cornish goodies. In our opinion, the owners get it just right.

A lovely place to stay.

Well equipped with quality fixtures and fittings, no corners cut here! Even washing up is a pleasure with that view.

We were very happy with the property but the stairs up to the second floor was very tiring.

We would be interested to know if in future the owners have any properties available on the ground floor

A really lovely and well equipped apartment with stunning views, immaculately clean and furnished.

I would 100% recommend, and definitely stay again.

Wonderful location, superb views, great facilities and pet seagull.

Comfortable place to stay, amazing views and well equipped

Lovely views and very quiet pretty village Would recommend

the only fault was we could not find property and asked around but no one had heard of gannet watch it must be promoted as headland apartments we finally found a local who was very good and helped us to find it> The caretaker gave us his post code instead of Gannet watch which was not helpful at all

Very good.

Well equipped kitchen.

We had an excellent stay at Gannet Watch.

The appartment was absolutely spotless and very well equipt. We would deffinately recommend this fabulous location to others.

When we arrived the first thing that took us by surprise was the amazing views out of the windows.

There was everything you needed in the property for a lovely holiday. It was a nice touch having fresh flowers on the table and I would highly recommend.

We loved Gannet Watch.

So much so that we immediately booked up to visit two times again. The place was clean, cosy and well-maintained. Fresh flowers and Cornish cream tea on arrival were a sign of our welcome from the hosts.

Very comfortable and clean, well provisioned.

The views from the property are just stunning. Very much enjoyed our stay.

Great property with excellent sea views!

The kitchen was really well stocked with everything we needed. Lovely touch with the scones and flowers too, that made it feel very homey. Really great having the coast path on our doorstep, it was perfect. We had the best stay and would definitely come back!

A beautifully maintained, spotlessly clean, comfortable and well equipped apartment with spectacular views.

We would definitely book again. Thank you!

Amazing views from this clean, cosy, well equipped, comfortable flat.

Cream tea & flowers left for our arrival. So many stars on a clear night. Great base to visit The Lizard. We enjoyed Kynance Cove (twice!), Lizard, Coverack, Church Cove, Helford, Porthleven … so many great walks. We will definitely stay again.

We are now regular visitors to the property & the standard of cleanliness & facilities in the apartment are always great - this last visit was no exception.

We love the apartment - our only disappointment is that we don't own it and cannot visit more regularly ! :) Thoroughly recommended - a great property in a great location.

We have just got back from a lovely stay at Gannet Watch - We drove down from up north and were not disappointed!

The views from this apartment are stunning! The apartment itself is spacious and had alot included - the cream tea on arrival and small milk in the fridge was a welcoming touch and there were books to read and lots of information of places to go which was all great and insightful. Our seagull friend "Stevie" added some comedy to our day and they made sure we didn't sleep in

Don't often go back to same place twice but this is our 3rd time at Headland and 2nd time in this lovely apartment.

Highly recommended. Oh and nice touch with welcome flowers, jams, milk, buns etc.

A comfortable apartment with a fantastic sea view.

The welcome pack of a cream tea was much appreciated! The seagull made a friendly daily appearance at the window. Would definitely return.

It stated it offered a great view, it did not disappoint.

We had a great weeks holiday and it was a pleasure to return to the apartment after a day of sight seeing.

Accommodation was great - clean, spacious and ideally located next to the beach and near the village.

Toilet seat needs a bleach or replacement stains on underside that’s all it needs to be perfect Everything else was spotless clean.

And we will return loved it

Lovely well equipped flat, with fabulous views.

Gannet Watch is such an amazing property to stay in.

It’s comfortable, well equipped, close to amenities and in a beautiful location. I throughly enjoyed my stay and throughly recommend it.

Amazing flat to stay in, out of this world views, with sunshine in the rooms all day.

Very comfortable accommodation with easy access to the cliff walks and Coverack village. Everyone friendly and helpful, and would thoroughly recommend to everyone.

Great location with amazing views.

Good location for exploring the fantastic coast path locally and the Lizard as a whole. Perfect weather and seeing choughs was a bonus. The flat was very well equipped and comfortable. We would definitely stay again.

This is the third time we’ve stayed in a flat at the Headland but the first in this flat.

We love the location with the headland and the quiet beach just below, not to mention the lovely view and the easy walk into Coverack. It is extremely well kitted out and has everything you might need. Everything is in good condition, the bed and the pillows are very comfortable, there is really nothing more to say! The only downside was that we had problems with the locking mechanism on the main living area window. The local handyman came the same day but was unable to fix it so it had to remain locked for most of our stay. As the flat got rather stuffy on warm days this was a major nuisance although there are two other windows admittedly.

Great accommodation - very well equipped and comfortable with amazing views.

Good walks from the doorstep.

Lovely apartment.

Seagulls banging on the window were annoying at first but we grew to love them by the end! Communal area was a bit dirty the the apartment was immaculate, no pet hair, no one smoking nearby, just perfect! Thankyou for a lovely stay.

The property was extremely well equipped with everything you could need.

Loved our stay.

Comfortable, spacious apartment in a great location.

We enjoyed our stay. Thanks

It was a lovely one bedroomed appartment with great sea views.

The only downside was that it was up 2 flights of stairs but we knew that when we booked. Bed and sofas were very comfortable. Great to have a few DVDs to choose from on a rainy afternoon. We enjoyed the scones with jam and cream which were provided with the tea, coffee and milk on the welcome tray. The roses in the vase wilted within a couple of days -so I think they should have been trimmed or had their stems bashed to help them take up water, so it might be best to buy a different type which would last better eg a few carnations. But it was a lovely thought and looked good on arrival. We enjoyed the holiday walks along the coast and being so near the Terrance Coventry sculpture garden was a real bonus for an evening stroll.

Excellent apartment, particularly for the views.

It was clean and tidy and a very comfortable stay. Two flights of stairs were a bind at times but then you looked out the window and all was forgiven. If I was being being picky there would be three things I would mention. No welcome pack - the shop shuts early and it wouldn't cost much to leave a pint of milk so a cup of tea could be had on arrival, all we got were some half dead flowers no doubt left by the previous occupants. The second point would be the dirty windows on the outside, and thirdly the size of the bathroom. They are very picky points and they wouldn't stop me staying again.

Fantastic apartment, well furnished, a real hidden gem, with fantastic views out to the sea and great small local beach.

Nice and quiet, a remote part of Cornwall and a great location with Coverack harbour (with cafe, pub and chippie) a few mins stroll along the coastal path. Very clean and tidy. The only minor criticisms are that more than one roll of toilet roll provided for a week would be nice, and a new shower curtain (the current one is mouldy). Fab stay though, highly recommended! We'll be back!

We absolutely loved this apartment would give it 10 out of 10 it was perfect.

Also i would like to thank Sykes for the very prompt action when i accidentally lost the keys to the apartment . Already looking at dates for a return visit.

The apartment was very clean, homely and felt welcoming.

We could not think of anything we required or wished for which was not provided. The addition of the telescope and guides to the area was something that we thoroughly enjoyed using. Instructions and help was clearly left- not that we required them. The walks around the area and stunning views just topped our week. We were also very lucky with the wildlife we saw. We would like to return to this apartment in the future.

The apartment at Gannet Watch was absolutely superb.

It was extremely clean and the apartment was spacious and bright. It was on the top floor of the block with no lift but the views were breathtaking over the sea and there is a binocular set up for the occupants to use. We saw a pod of dolphins on our first morning which we have never seen before in Cornwall. The whole holiday was fantastic.

The apartment was entered during our stay whilst weren’t there, I would like to know why!

The immersion heater wasn’t on when we arrived so we had to wait for hot water. The TV signal broke up on day 2 so we weren’t able to watch anything thereafter!

Perfect location for our short break to explore this part of Cornwall.

Apartment was also perfect. Beautiful views all around and although appearing to be remote, not far from Coverack or other wonderful places around the Lizard and further afield. Next time we’ll be staying longer!

We had a great holiday and will be back again soon to see the beautiful views again!

Gannets Watch is a very well equipped and clean apartment in a wonderful location with gorgeous views.

The tennis court was a bonus and being able to get to the lovely beach within 5 minutes was ideal for us.

I was only a bit stressed about the main door sorry.

The keypad to enter the code is extremely low down and buttons not very easy when you have luggage and if you're tall!! Coupled with the fact I had the wrong no for some reason meant I was outside struggling for about an hour before someone came to rescue me. But it's such a beautiful and peaceful place to stay it made up for it! It was a shame I couldn't use the washing machine to replenish my muddy walking gear. The workmen were there and had it all taped off and dug up? Thank you ***Owner Response*** Dear Ms Davies, I am glad you enjoyed the beauty and peace of the place, which we still love after many years. I am sorry though that the keypad was low for you. I have been in touch with the managing company, who intend to refurbish the porch area after the holiday season, and they have said that they will address this as part of the work. They have also informed us that the work that was being carried out on the communal laundry area during your stay is expected to be finished by early June 2019. I do apologise that it was not accessible for you though. I’m sorry you had a problem with the number: I did check the code that the holiday company sent out, but this was correct.

This property is well furnished and has everything you need for a comfortable stay.

And we saw plenty of gannets! Only two things that detract: the bathroom is very bijou and we think it would be more comfortable to install a shower cubicle and do away with the bath. Who would take a bath facing a blank wall in a box room with no natural light.....? Secondly it’s a superb view but there is nowhere to sit comfortably to admire it within the property. Difficult to do anything about this with the fabric of the hotel conversion, so the viewing chairs provided are good, but if the weather had not been so good, this would have been less of an attractive property. Also on the positive side, the location is really out of the way and the coast path and sculpture park are a bonus.

Beautiful location, fantastic views.

The flat was comfortable, well equipped, quiet. The perfect place to have a peaceful holiday.
