Primrose Cottage
Description
Nestled a stone's throw away from the heart of the charming seaside town of Hayle rests this traditional holiday home, Primrose Cottage.
Within easy reach of both the coast and county of Cornwall, Primrose Cottage is a blissful retreat for both families and friends alike.
Marvel at the delightful white-washed exterior of this lovely dwelling, stepping inside and kicking off your shoes as you enter into the snug sitting room, fit with a leather sofa and armchair gathered around the television, enticing you to nestle in as you unwind with a cup of tea following an action-packed day.
Make your way through to the kitchen/diner tucked away at the rear to the property, featuring a traditional yet contemporary décor with brick tiles and gleaming surfaces, homing all of the essential amenities to ensure an enjoyable self-catering experience.
Gather your loved ones for a seat at the elegant breakfast bar to serve your tasty treats, or if you're lucky enough to experience the warmer weather, step outside and indulge in a spot of alfresco dining, enveloped in the tranquil setting of the well-maintained green garden.
As the evening grows darker, head back inside to soak your muscles ahead of a new day in the bathtub, located on the ground-floor for your convenience, or if you'd prefer, climb the stairs and wash away the day with an invigorating rinse in the walk-in shower.
Retire for the evening and rest your head in one of the two thoughtfully laid-out bedrooms, with the choice between a bright and airy double room or a sumptuous king-size, with the versatility feature to convert into two single flexible sleeping arrangements.
Get better acquainted with your surroundings and take the short stroll into the centre of Hayle where you'll find a handful of independent shops, perfect for picking up a keepsake to remind you of your marvellous staycation, along with a delicious selection of eateries, where no trip to the coast would be complete without a takeaway portion of fish and chips and a leisurely stroll along the beachfront.
Spend a fun-filled day meeting the rare animals at Paradise Park Wildlife Sanctuary, challenge the little ones to a game of pitch and putt, or escape the excitement and enjoy a peaceful spot of birdwatching at RSPB Hayle Estuary.
Venture further afield to the popular tourist town of St Ives and dip your toes in the refreshing waters of the bay as you bask in the sun and sand, marvel at the magnificent artwork on display at the Tate St Ives, or follow the South West Coast Path from the heart of the town towards Clodgy Point, providing breath-taking panoramic views across the scenic coastline.
Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat or to experience adventure, choose a stay at Primrose Cottage.

Absolutely top class.
Couldnt fault it.
Clean, comfy and cosy - Primrose cottage is an ideal location to use as a base for exploring the area with everything you need.
Please note that the listing doesn't explain that the cottage has a private parking space around the corner in a nearby road - we found it by accident!
What a stunning little property!
We were really impressed with Primrose Cottage. Great location, just a short walk from the town and a nice quiet spot. Though, some might find the walk tricky as it is mostly uphill. We did have a little trouble finding it at first, as it's not obvious from the road. The cottage is located immediately behind number 6 which is clearly visible from the road. The property is beautifully decorated and very well maintained. Spotlessly clean throughout while still feeling welcoming and cosy. Lovely garden with a seating area at the back too. We have thoroughly enjoyed our week and would love to stay again! And an added welcome bonus were the treats for the dog, which she absolutely loved. Thank you! We highly recommend this property. Xx
It was my first time to Cornwall, and my first trip on my own.
This cottage was absolutely perfect for me. The location, facilities and enclosed garden was perfect with my dogs. The owners really went above & beyond ensuring every need would be met for a comfortable holiday. There’s nothing they didn’t think of, everything is labelled so you’re not trying to figure anything out yourself. The kitchen is very well equipped and everything has been thought of what you could need. The instructions for everything was very well communicated down to how to get there. It really felt like you was at a second home. Absolute ideal location to be able to get to St Ives, also Hayle has such a beautiful stretch of beaches many of which are dog friendly all year round. I honestly couldn’t have asked or expected a better place to stay for my first visit. I would recommend this place everytime over for a perfect stay in Cornwal. Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday
What great feedback and particularly as being your first visit to beautiful Cornwall. We are just so pleased you’ve had a wonderful stay. Thank you so much.
This is our 5th holiday in Hayle and we have stayed in a different property each time.
Primrose Cottage is by far the best accommodation we have stayed in. The cottage was lovely and clean on arrival, parking no issue at all, and even though the drive way is tight (as mentioned in the listing) it was still very accessible. The location of the cottage within Hayle is fabulous with a large Asda a short walk away.The beautiful Hayle estuary beach is also only around half an hour’s gentle walk from the cottage. There are plenty of places to eat or get a takeaway locally (Would recommend trying the delicious Cornish Rattler cider at The Bluff Inn with an amazing view!) and Hayle is such a fabulous base to explore Cornwall with St Ives, Penzance, Marazion, and Newquay just a short drive away. We felt the owners have literally thought of everything!We have never stayed anywhere where there was so many thoughtful touches, ice cube bags, tin foil, sandwich bags, plenty of crockery & cooking utensils, and even bag clips! It is a very well equipped kitchen! Tea, coffee, and sugar sachets, and little pots of milk were provided which were much appreciated after a 9hr drive. There was even a bag of dog treats for our pooch which we thought was a lovely touch. Facilities in the cottage are fabulous with 2 bathrooms, a dishwasher, a washing machine (a huge bonus for us) and a full size fridge freezer. It has a lovely enclosed garden so we could safely let our dog out without any worry. The bed was very comfortable so we slept well all week. It’s clear that the owners really care about the experience the people that stay at the cottage have and we would definitely book this property again.Thank you to the owners for making our stay so comfortable & pleasurable!
Thank you for your wonderful and informative feedback – we really do appreciate it. We’ve tried to think of everything we’d want ourselves to create a true “home from home” experience, and we’re always open to any further suggestions that could make future stays even better. We’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thank you so much
We had a fantastic stay at primrose cottage in June.
The cottage had everything you could need including picnic sets and sandwich bags! Location was great. Easy walk (20 mins for a slow stroll) to the most beautiful beach! Beds were comfortable, cottage comfortable area quiet.
Thank you Samantha, we’re so pleased you had a fantastic stay and we couldn’t agree more, the beaches are truly stunning around the area with over 3 miles of beautiful coastline to explore. Thank you so much for your feedback.
Great cottage in a good location with ample parking.
Clean and with all the necessary facilities and utensils you may need. Unable to give 100% satisfaction due to: As it’s “pet friendly” it’s unhelpful not being able to put dog waste in the bin. It’s not pleasant carrying it in the vehicle to find one. Also as a bonus, especially in today’s climate of coffee drinkers, a small coffee maker would have been great.
We appreciate that asking guests to take their dog waste away may be inconvenient and, indeed, somewhat unhygienic. We originally introduced this request after finding that dog waste had repeatedly been placed directly into the bin when no bin liner had been fitted. Once the bagged household rubbish had been collected, this left the bin in a very unhygienic condition and difficult to clean. We fully understand and sympathise with your comments and have since placed notices on both bins asking guests to ensure that a liner is always fitted before disposing of any waste. Therefore, DOG WASTE CAN NOW BE DISPOSED OF IN THE GENERAL WASTE BIN (within a bin liner!). Spare bin liners are available in the small middle bin for convenience. With regard to the coffee maker, we currently provide a selection of different coffees in the hope of catering to a variety of tastes. However, we will certainly take your suggestion into consideration as we are always looking for ways to improve our guests' experience. We do hope you enjoyed your stay and thank you once again for your valuable feedback. Comments such as yours help us continue to improve for future guests.
The 3‑seater settee was badly damaged, with the vinyl peeling away at the bottom of the cushions.
The office and owner were apparently aware of this, but it was not mentioned in the notes. The outside window was covered in bird droppings, which was not a nice sight to arrive to. The carbon monoxide alarm kept bleeping. We contacted the office, and there was a fast response. A representative found that the mains supply had been switched off, but it was reinstated.
We sincerely apologise for the vinyl peeling on the bottom front panel of the 3-seater settee. We are unsure why this occurred, but please be assured it has now been rectified. We would also like to apologise for the bird mess on the window, which we agree is not pleasant to see. This is very unusual, as our housekeepers are extremely thorough and we greatly value their hard work in preparing the cottage within a limited timeframe. Nevertheless, we appreciate you bringing this to our attention, as it helps us maintain and improve our standards for future guests. We are also very sorry for the inconvenience caused by the carbon monoxide alarm repeatedly beeping. We are, however, very grateful to the management company for their prompt and efficient response in resolving the issue. We truly hope that, despite these issues, you were still able to enjoy your holiday. Thank you again for your feedback, which is invaluable in helping us to improve the experience for future guests.
We had a fantastic time at Primrose Cottage - our dogs loved the garden and the walks.
Primrose Cottage itself was totally charming - the owners have thought of everything. We had a wonderful stay.
A lovely review - thank you very much. So pleased to hear your dogs enjoyed it too - so many beautiful beaches, vast fields, woods, river walks etc etc. for both them and you to enjoy. Thank you.
A cosy cottage which is tucked away.
It's lovely and warm, well equipped, comfy beds. A great place to stay with easy access to beaches, St Ives, Penzance, Marazion etc.
Thank you very much for your sincere feedback. We really appreciate it! We hope you managed to visit all the great places you mentioned plus many more! Thank you
Lovely house with a safe garden for our little dogs.
There is also a designated parking space just a little way up the road which was unexpected and very handy. We would book this again.
Thank you very much for your feedback. It is so appreciated
Beautiful cottage with all the amenities you require, we don’t drive so parking was not an issue to us but it may be for drivers as no parking although we thought it said there was.
Very comfortable and a short walk into. Town. Nice little touches like games and books in the cupboards and the kitchen stocked with everything even picnic kits and plenty of crockery of every kind. Even steps provided for children etc to reach the cupboards. (Which are a normal height ) . A lovely garden to relax in with. Patio chairs and table and access to a shed. If you need a parasol or sun chairs. Extremely quiet and tranquil and a wonderful base to explore the Cornish Coastline. Extremely reasonably priced for what you get and we would not hesitate to stay again if we had the opportunity.
A great comment in covering so much. Thank you very much. It certainly is an ideal place to explore so many beautiful areas - beaches and fishing villages, river walks, woodland nature walks etc. etc. The vast being a short drive away. So many different stunning beaches around which many are great as also open to dogs the majority of the year - just some excluding dogs during two months from 1st July until 31st August but ONLY between 10am-4pm. You could do a different walk every day! There is so much to do from a 10-min drive to St Erth’s railway station to travel to St Ives - at a very reasonable cost (dogs are free to travel as well). Incidentally, we do have a large two-car parking bay on corner of next road along which is signposted belonging to Primrose Cottage. Thank you so much for taking the time to respond with your great feedback.
Lovely property, many home comforts nice enclosed garden.
Relaxing stay
Thank you very much for your feedback. It’s very appreciated and we are so pleased to hear you had a relaxing stay. Thank you again.
We had a lovely stay at Primrose Cottage.
We had everything we needed. The kitchen was very modern and equipped to a high standard. The lovely garden was enclosed and there were 2 bathrooms! Tea coffee milk and sugar sachets for a drink on arrival, aswell as biscuits and dog treats! It is a lovely little cottage and a bonus it's dog friendly. The owners are obviously conscientious of making it home from home for people that stay.
Thank you very much for your feedback. We have tried very hard to make it as a home from home stay just as we would enjoy and so your comments are truly appreciative. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thank you again
Lovely cottage,well equipped kitchen and a very pretty garden.
Only downside was the fact that every surface was very dusty, maybe the cottage hadn’t been used for a while. Parking was easy fifty yards away and neighbours both sides of the cottage were charming. We had an enjoyable stay.
Lovely cottage with everything needed for a relaxing holiday.
Thankyou
The cottage was very well equipped, beautifully clean and a real home from home.
It is ideally located to explore Hayle beach, Penzance, St Ives etc. and being within walking distance of a shop, bakery (with delicious pasties) and a pub was a real treat.
Thank you very much for choosing our holiday cottage. We trust you had a lovely time judging by all your great comments, which we really appreciate. Thank you so much.
Great place very comfortable Great place to visit the area only draw back was loading and unloading car no problem parking just 1 road up found a space every time.
Primrose cottage has everything you could possibly need everything is to a high standard wouldn’t hesitate recommending this property to anyone thank you for a lovely visit.
June John and Rosie.
Thank you very much for your feedback. All your comments are very much appreciated and we are pleased even more so to hear you had a lovely visit. Many thanks again.
An excellent property - well presented and well maintained.
The house is well equipped and everything works as anticipated. An excellent garden is a real asset. Ideally located close to major tourist sites on North and South Coast - a great base. Only significant problem is the parking / access problem which is very difficult and makes moving kit / shopping / dogs etc very difficult.
Thank you for choosing our cottage for your holiday. We are so pleased to hear your comments. Yes, we are saddened at times to hear the occasional comment on parking/access difficulties, but feel it is a minimal downside to the cottage. As like with other old Cornish properties without having good vehicle access, if any at all, but we do at least have a driveway with the property if only to access to unload and load, albeit being a bit tight. There is usually plenty of parking in nearby roads and once settled, it is a generally peaceful quiet spot for relaxation once you're settled in. We do hope you found it to be this way as well. Thanking you again.
A very lovely home from home.
A nice quiet location and secure garden for the dogs. Take care in the back bedroom not to flash the traffic, the large window overlooks the road up the hill! The balcony is out of use and there is a sign saying for 'emergency exit only', but there is no key to use in door (that we could find) for emergency exit (you'd be hard pushed to get a person out the window), possibly adding a 'break glass' would be a good idea to make sure it is only used for an emergency. We have a large car so didn't attempt the driveway but parking was easy in the next road along and really not an issue.
Thank you very much for your feedback, we were pleased and somewhat amused to hear your comments. Yes, it could be a possibility to flash the traffic in the bedroom, however, there are obscure roller blinds on all upstairs windows if in need to use which still let in plenty of light when pulled down. It maybe that they were fully rolled up at the time and therefore weren't so noticeable, so please accept our apologies if so. As like most upstairs bedrooms having just a window for emergency escape only, though we do feel the window opens quite far when pushed, but yes, maybe not suitable for everyone. We thank you for bringing this to our attention and have taken this to be of serious consideration and have since had a 'break glass keybox' installed for emergency use only. Incidentally, the door is there for 'outside maintenance' use only as would not be deemed safe if allowing general access to it, particularly if extreme, therefore the door is kept locked. Thank you for booking your holiday in our cottage and for all your comments as well. We really do appreciate it.
Very clean and well decorated cottage with a lovely garden.
Primrose Cottage was compact and comfortable. Location was good, just a short walk to Hayle and a short drive to the local beaches. St Ives, Penzance and St Michael's Mount were also close by. A great base to explore west Cornwall. Parking wasn't an issue as there is plenty of parking in the next road.
Thank you very much for all your lovely comments. We are so pleased you found your stay as is described and very grateful for your sound and honest feedback.
Wow.
My wife has managed holiday properties in the Scottish Borders and every box she looked for in a well managed property had been conclusively ticked in Primrose Cottage. The whole property was spotlessly clean, beautifully laid out and homely with a fully enclosed garden area to the rear. Bedrooms were comfortable with sufficient room for storage of clothes and beautifully quiet. The upstairs shower was best suited to a smaller person but that was more than compensated for by the full sized bathroom downstairs. Being a cottage of its era the stairs are quite narrow and comparatively steep compared to a modern house, maybe not best suited for someone with mobility issues. Parking was about 50 metres away due to access for neighbours. This didn't prove an issue during our stay and avoided having to negotiate the blind exit from the front drive. A mirror has been provided to assist with exiting the drive but it still felt like a leap of faith pulling out. Location was great with Hayle being a short walk away for shops with a good selection of local accessible areas for exercising our dog. All in all if we were to be returning to the area Primrose Cottage would definitely be on our 'wish list' of properties to return to
Thank you very much for your feedback! We really appreciate it. We have furnished Primrose Cottage to a 'home from home' standard, just as we would like it. Any comments whether on improvements or complaints are taken very seriously and we endeavour to deal with effectively, but of course, being an old Cornish property, there are some limits which we are sadly unable to change.
Absolutely wonderful week enjoyed by us all - only slight niggle was confusion over recycling with the double bin (but absolutely nothing else that would stop us booking again) Thank you
Thank you Sarah for your feedback and we are sorry to hear the confusion over the double recycling bin. We had hoped to improve on the recycling facilities, but as to yet, cannot find a solution. We thank you very much for your further booking and return last month and for informing us of poor visibility out the front during darkness. In response to this, the current external light will be replaced with a more sensitive PIR light by the end of this month (January 2024). Many thanks again for your feedback, it is greatly welcomed.
Very disappointed with the recycling system.
Cornwall has one of the most effective recycling systems using large bins , black boxes and a number of coloured bags. All we had was the one large bin which after having searched high and low for a recycling centre we ended up filling the large bin with glass bottles, plastic bottles, tins, card, newspapers , household waste & kitchen waste.
We cannot emphasize how disappointed we are as well with having nowhere to accommodate recycling bins out the front due to being an old, small, 'tardis' like cottage with minimal boundary limitations, and having a narrow single-vehicle width shared driveway. However, there are recycling services available at St. Erth's, being no more than a 10minute drive to and you could also incorporate a lovely walk along the river in St. Erths, together with huge fields for your dog to enjoy running around! We really offer our sincere apologies when we all share a responsibility to help reduce world climate change. July 2024 Incidentally, since receiving this recycling comment and others in the past, we are very pleased to announce we now have great recycling facilities in operation. We cannot emphasize how much of a concern it has been for us and being such an important issue for all.
The only disappointment was no welcome pack on arrival as we had been on a long journey a few starters would have been most welcome It’s the first time we have stayed anywhere where there wasn’t even some long life milk for a cup of tea
We are really sorry to hear of your disappointment. We recently changed the usual 'Welcome Pack' to include a surplus of non-food items (ie, washing-up liquid; dishwasher tablets, detergent, etc.). We felt this to be of more use as the choice in food we previously provided (milk, tea, coffee, bread, spread etc.) was not always to everyone's liking, let alone being unfortunate to suffer from food intolerances. We are lucky to have a large late-night closing supermarket, less than 5mins drive from the cottage with the thought that most guests will require to do a whole food shop for their holiday in any case. However, we fully understand your circumstances and are now resupplying some basic beverages.
Had a lovely stay with my two dogs.
The cottage was clean with everything you could need. The only reason I haven’t given it 5 stars was because of the parking. You can’t park on the driveway outside which isn’t too much of an issue as there is parking literally 30 seconds away, however you can load and unload in the driveway BUT it is so narrow that you struggle to open the doors once you’ve parked! If you have a big car, I think you will struggle.
We thank you for your feedback. Yes, unfortunately, it can be tight to park outside the cottage to unload/load, and, sadly, due to the boundary limitation, we're unable to improve on it. Our car is quite large (VW Caddy 7-seater) but we always reverse up the drive, stopping a tad before the cottage on the most expansive area on the right, allowing room to open the door adequately. We feel better to have this rather than having no access at all. We are so pleased to hear you had a lovely stay once you got settled in.
Lovely cottage in great location just a shame shower was out of order but at least we were compensated for it and we knew in advance Will stay again
Thank you. We agree the cottage is in a great location with so much to see, do, and enjoy within such easy reach. Hopefully, you found our folder with recommendations of places to visit to be of great help as well particularly for many outstanding walks around (with or without dogs). We were, however, extremely sorry the upstairs shower was out of use during your stay due to the low water pressure and therefore could scald. That has now been replaced with a far more sophisticated electric shower able to cope better with low water pressure. Thankfully, the downstairs shower does not get affected in the same way as upstairs as it is mains fed and not electric. We thank you very much for choosing Primrose Cottage to spend your valuable holiday time in.
A beautiful cottage - v well equipped, sparkling clean, cosy and everything as promised.
We are so pleased to hear your lovely positive comments. Thank you very much :) We also give thanks to our hard-working housekeepers as well as the cleanliness is so often mentioned in feedback.
2nd visit and will return again love this cottage it’s like home from home !
The kitchen is gorgeous &is where we spent most of our stay!
Thank you Lisa for another lovely comment. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay for the second time and we look forward to hearing from you again on your next visit to Cornwall!
Description matched reality, struck by the cleanliness, bright and airy.
Home away from , no hesitation in recommending this lovely cottage.
Thank you very much for your feedback, we’re so pleased to hear you found the cottage to be just as described
We experienced problems during our stay regarding a terrible smell of drains.
We tried to report it on the emergency phone number (Monday), it went to answerphone and we had no response. On Tuesday we called the Management Team and they were quick to respond. We believe someone visited the property, while we were out, as on returning, we could smell cleaning products. However, by the next morning, the smell was back. We emailed Sykes requesting they inform the Owner of the problem at the property. (Still waiting for a response.) Also, we sent Sykes a photo of the weeds, bindweeds and brambles near the seating area of the garden. We really liked the location of the property and feel it’s a shame we had these problems. Near the back door and in the upstairs and downstairs bathrooms the smell was very unpleasant. Whenever we were at the property we had all the doors and windows open and went to the extremes of getting up at 5.30am to air the property. By Thursday we’d had enough and left. We left a ‘polite notice’ for the cleaner to make them aware of our concerns.
We were extremely sorry to hear about the problems you encountered in the cottage, which, unfortunately, we weren't aware of until after you had vacated. We returned to the cottage soon after and requested a drainage company around to inspect. Upon inspection, they advised of no major cause, but mainly due to the extremely dry summer weather with drains drying out through lack of rainwater and smells then building up and escaping wherever they can. Unfortunately, we were not alone as a lot of properties with old drainage/sewerage systems in Cornwall experienced this problem during this hot dry summer. Nevertheless, it happened on our property and we were deeply concerned. On advice from the drainage experts, we have subsequently had modifications carried out, replacing old drainage traps and other precautionary work to ensure no further problems regardless of weather conditions. We were also extremely sorry and disappointed to hear of the state of the garden. Quite understandably - not nice, nor acceptable. Unknown to us at the time, the gardener had not been around to attend to it as requested. We intend to ensure this does not happen again in the future. It is extremely disappointing to receive feedback like this. We take pleasure in furnishing the cottage comfortably and fully equipped so all our guests can have an enjoyable holiday, just as we would like to expect. We endeavour to take all necessary steps to ensure any problems are dealt with swiftly and accordingly to prevent happening again in the future.
Absolutely loved the cottage and found it comfortable and ideal for one person.
The garden was also a delight. Just a couple of niggles. I'm very short and found the height of the kitchen cupboards a little challenging. Also, I was aware of a faint aroma of 'eau de drains', which I imagine is a problem with old house drainage. The 1st floor shower was not the best being tricky to adjust the temperature and rather wasteful of water whilst it heated. Aside from the above, I was very happy there and enjoyed the comfortable bed and just being in Cornwall, my favourite destination and during the best weather!
Thank you for your lovely comments about the cottage though we are sorry to hear about the niggles. The wall cupboards are of standard height, and like myself, I cannot reach the very top shelves, but there are small folding steps usually tucked between the cupboard and fridge to help with this. As for the faint aroma of 'eau de drains', we were very saddened to hear about this and give our apologies. They then erupted even worse. This is due to the old drainage/sewerage systems drying up with so little rainfall during the extremely hot summer. This is the first year, we had received comments about this problem all being it a beautiful long hot summer, but having consequences with the sewage traps drying out. The drainage/sewerage system has now been modified to help prevent any future problems. With regards to the upstairs shower, the room was created for convenience to have an upstairs toilet and basin, with space left for an additional shower, but unfortunately, the water pressure is too low to get good pressure, and therefore, sadly, we are unable to improve it. So glad to hear you loved the cottage despite a few irritants
The cottage was well equipped and very clean, although a lot further from the beach than we thought.
The beds were comfy. The lounge was very small, and the settee was not very comfortable.
We thank you for your feedback which we have taken into account to help improve the comfort of the lounge. Sadly we can't enlarge it but have replaced the previous settee and chair with two larger settees and slightly changed the layout with the confidence our future guests will enjoy it more comfortably. We are sorry if you found the cottage to be a lot further from the beach than thought. The walk to the nearest beach is approx. 15mins and from there you can take further walks along the Causeway for beautiful views of Porthkidney Beach and Hayle Beach plus a walk around the bird nature reserve. However, if you're looking to spend time on the beach, then we are situated very close to far more spectacular beaches around anything from just a 10-15mins drive!
Very cosy cottage, excellent equipped, good location
Thank you very much for your lovely feedback, we're so pleased you enjoyed your stay in Primrose Cottage :)
Lovely cottage in a great location.
Smaller than the pictures suggest, but perfectly adequate. Parking in a nearby road was slightly stressful as the spaces seemed to be in high demand the week we stayed. Including information about operation of the appliances would be useful and I was surprised there was still no cafetière as it had been pointed out before! (I bought my own from Asda!) I also think some thought needs to go into the recycling of rubbish as it did feel wrong just putting everything out for landfill.
Thank you for your comments which we much appreciate as helps us to ensure our guests have a really enjoyable stay. We are sorry you experienced a problem with parking, it is most unusual as being a very quiet residential area but hoping it was a minority occurrence. We have taken note re details of operation of appliances and totally agree, so information is now included in our 'Welcome Pack' folder. And, incidentally, we have since changed the tv for a more advanced and easier to use one. A cafetiere can now be found in the kitchen for which we apologise for the delay as had no idea how popular it is, and, have to say, makes very nice coffee! As for the recycling of rubbish, we are also disappointed there are no recycling facilities due to various reasons, ie location of cottage, limited space and management company being unlicensed to deal with recycling. We also feel extremely uncomfortable with this situation, it is an important responsibility not to be ignored and will therefore continue to look at ways for a solution. Thank you again for your very important comments brought to our attention.
Absolutely love this cottage,so much so that I’ve booked again for next year!
! It had everything you needed,safe enclosed garden for the dogs.Beds were so comfy!Its in a fantastic location..highly recommend it !
It’s really nice to hear you enjoyed your holiday in the cottage. Thank you for such lovely feedback and for booking with us again. We wish you a great holiday again on your next visit.
A very well furnished cottage close to the town and beaches with local dog walking.
An ideal holiday pad
Really enjoyed our stay.
Cottage cosy but with all mod cons. Kitchen was very well equipped. Just missed a cafetière! Comfy beds. Found the upstairs bathroom basin bit awkward but guess necessary due to space constraints.
We loved this cottage!
Great location and very warm and comfortable. The only slight negative is that there was no recycling facilities, which is a bit weird nowadays. We'd definitely go back!
This was my first time with Sykes and I would definitely use again!
Booking was so easy. Got regular emails giving me all the information I needed - before, during and after! Had a tiny glitch during our stay and the response and timing was just superb - very impressive! Loved the star system and having booked a 4 star house I was not disappointed. Primrose Cottage was exactly as described. New refurbished it is clean, welcoming, cosy and has everything you need for an awesome holiday. Two very spacious rooms with lots of storage space (can be a rarety).. Light, airy, clean. Bathroom with shower upstairs was sufficient for our needs however this a large bathroom with bath downstairs too :-) Kitchen diner was just brilliant - SO well equipped. Big fridge/freezer. Great oven. Wine rack :-) Washing machine and dishwasher. Garden was perfect for afternoon sun and wine. Grass area for the dog and decking area with comfy chairs for just relaxing. Lots of pads, parasol, body board in outside storage. Accessed from patio doors from kitchen. The only tiny downside is you can't access the garden without coming through house. We were lucky with the weather so my dog was always clean and I put towels down on the cream carpet in the living room but if you have a dirty dog after a walk make sure you are prepared. Bailey dried off in garden before allowed in lounge area so no problem for us. And the kitchen has a lovely laminate floor so dog friendly. Lounge had a settee, chair and two bean bags with a great telly. Just perfect for relaxing in an evening. I was worried about the lack of parking on the drive but it really wasn't a problem. You can load/unload and there is cul de sac 20 seconds walk away where there was always parking. So please don't worry about this aspect! Highly recommend both Sykes AND the accommodation. Will definitely use again and hope the next house is just as perfect. Thanks for having us!
Loved the area, beaches, dog walks, cottage.
In fact had a great time thanks.
Great Position and fitted us well as a family 4 plus 2 dogs.
