- Uwe, November 2021 -
T “We felt the apartment could have been cleaner, the en-suite bathroom was particularly bad in certain areas.”
The kitchen was lacking oven dishes and serving dishes.
- T, July 2021Ian “We were not informed of the scaffolding over the entire building resulting in loss of light and also inability to access balcony or open the doors to the balcony for fresh air.”
We were not warned that the builders access route to the scaffolding was directly outside the lounge window and that they arrived at 8am each day and all proceeded to walk past lounge and bedroom windows meaning we had to keep curtains closed for most of the day or be gawped at. Nor were we warned that the builders started up with hammer drilling at 08:30 each morning which vibrated through the entire building, forcing us to get up early and have to go out every day early. Pictures did not reflect the reality of looking at a full car park at eye level so the view through the scaffolding wasn't the same as the pictures. Getting hold of Sykes customer support took forever - repeatedly on hold for 15+ mins before giving up and took 3 or 4 attempts before we got to speak to someone, who promised to call back and never did. A very disappointing holiday.
- Ian, September 2020Kevin “The apartment was just as advertised on the website and was very clean and comfortable.”
The kitchen was well stocked with equipment and the WIFI was very reliable (it was able to keep two teenage boys satisfied !). Communications from the owners was also very good. The apartment is very close to Fistral beach which is fantastic for surfing and has some great restaurants.
- Kevin, August 2020Christopher “You should state that if using the public car park you have a lot of stairs to use.”
The outside of the property looks in very bad repair so does not make feel promising about the inside but thankness it was perfect
- Christopher, October 2019Ann “The apartment was lovely.”
Spotlessly clean, modern with everything there to make our stay enjoyable. Would highly recommend this apartment.
- Ann, September 2019Helen “This Zinc apartment was an ideal location for the beach, shops and stunning scenery.”
Four of us stayed for a week and there was plenty of room to accommodate all of us very comfortably. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils although these didn’t get used much due to being a wide choice of places to eat within walking distance. The bedrooms/bathrooms were a good size with plenty of wardrobe space plus the beds were very comfortable. Parking is at the back of the building which the owner booked for us so we could come & go all week. This property is well maintained throughout & we would book again if we were back in the area as we really enjoyed our stay.
- Helen, September 2019Lee “Just come back with my Daughter from a lovely week at No 29 Zinc Apartments .”
We found it clean, tidy, bright and airy, 2 good size Bedrooms with a nice and spacious on suite to the main Bedroom, the main Bathroom was a fair size as well and nice and clean. The Kitchen, Dining, and Living area are all open plan, and again a good size I thought it was just perfect, in fact we felt comfortable there from the beginning and if the accommodation is good then you're on your way to a good holiday and we had a great time. Car parking was arranged by the owners in the public car park behind the Apartment for the week so no problem there, in fact you can see your car at all times from the sitting area. Location is brilliant, its just a 5\ 10 minute walk to Fistral Beach where you can hire surf boards and wetsuits to enjoy the surf, which we done, also there is a café to get drinks and snacks, Rick Steins fish and chips and a pizza restaurant. A 5/10 minute walk the other way brings you into Newquay with its Harbour, Shops, Restaurants etc, on a practical side Sainsburys is down here to. All in all a lovely place, in a lovely area. I well recommend it
- Lee, September 2019Ruth “We had a wonderful stay in Newquay.”
The apartment’s location is fantastic as it’s so close to the beach, while being a couple of minutes walk from restaurants, cafes and a supermarket. The apartment is at the back of the building away from the main road and is therefore very quiet. The only noise is the seagulls!! The apartment is clean, bright, comfortable and furnished to a high standard. The kitchen included everything we needed, and the Cornish Cream Tea on arrival was much appreciated. Our one-year-old also loved the apartment and the travel cot and highchair provided were a huge help. With prams you have to use the front of the building as the back has a lot of steps. A resident showed us the easiest way to get in with a pram which is to go through the garage and then use the lift. The only negative thing I can think of - which isn’t even about this apartment in particular - is that the whole building exterior needs a clean or lick of paint. It just affected our first impression slightly but once we were inside the beautiful apartment that was all forgotten. We would definitely return... to be honest we didn’t ever want to leave!

About the location
NEWQUAY
Holywell 6 miles; Perranporth 8.5 miles; Truro 14 miles; Padstow 14 miles.
Newquay is the home of the UK’s surf scene, boasting three major beaches, the National Surf Centre and an endless supply of rolling surf, making it a watersports paradise. The town, with its zoo, sea life centre and varied selection of restaurants and pubs, also promises a holiday to remember. For avid walkers, the South West Coast Path passes in both directions along a stunning coastline of high cliffs, hidden coves and yet more beaches. The quaint harbour and fishing village of Padstow is just 14 miles away, while Truro, with its museums, cathedral, restaurants and cobbled streets, as well as the Eden Project, can be reached within 30 minutes. Picturesque St Ives and the Tate St Ives gallery is under an hour's drive or a train ride away. In fact, because nothing in Cornwall is far from Newquay, it’s the perfect touring base.
