Mount View

Another wonderful stay.

The apartment has the most amazing views and is very comfortable with everything you need. The parking and the lift are the icing on the cake.

Excellent accommodation and location.

Parking bay well appreciated. Only minor issue was strong drain smell in bathroom. This was cured after a couple of nights by pouring bleach down bathroom sink. Would definitely book this property again.

Great position overlooking St Michael’s Mount, wonderful to have a lift, we wouldn’t have been able to use the accommodation without it.

Lovely new bathroom and shower - level with floor so easy to use.

Another wonderful stay at an amazing location.

The views are fantastic and the accommodation homely and welcoming. Lovely upgrades to bathroom and decoration.

Absolutely the best view ever and we’ve stayed on Paradise Island in the Bahamas with a Seaview.

It was amazing we never got tired of looking at the tide coming in and out the sailing boats and Saint Michaels Mount. The apartment itself was lovely great bathroom , great views and lots on hand in the kitchen for the occasion where you did actually want to cook. We have already recommended it to personal friends. There is a fantastic lift facility , great balcony which is a Sun trap and we will be booking to come again. It also comes with parking at the front of the property, which is a rarity in this location. Loved it, loved it, loved it!

We loved our stay at Mount view in Marazion, views from the balcony and bedroom was stunning.

Apartment had alocated parking bay in front of the building, that was big bonus. Shops and cafes 5 min walking distance, we loved pasties from Philips shop. Cream tea with scones and jam was left for us in the fridge on arrival with milk for cup a tea, that was lovely touch, after 8h journey to come to a tea with fresh scone on the balcony with amazing views was great start to our holiday. Good points: great location, well equipped kitchen , balcony with sea view , balcony furniture, new bathroom, shops near by. Loads to see and visit around Marazion. Paddle board rent on the beach at the end of the car park. Couple of things might be to mention head board in master bedroom a bit wobly, staircase looks neglected that give wrong impression as you walk in, over all it was comfortable stay and had all we needed for amazing holiday. We are looking to book this place again meet year. Thank you.

Really enjoyed our week.

On arrival, so pleased that my Qashqai fitted in the parking space with room either side - was able to leave the car and enjoy the local amenities. Lift was great for getting the luggage and provisions up to the apartment. Lovely open and airy feel to the apartment. Weather was great and balcony was a bonus with seating, table and parasol - able to relax and take in the wonderful views. Excellent position for beach, shops, food and drink, and bus stops (took a bus ride into Penzance). Highlight was a visit to the Minack Theatre to see Shakespeare In Love - what an experience!

Fantastic property - we both loved it!

2 things - access instructions in emails appeared garbled - some steps missing-, whereas those in the site booklet were clear and correct - need to be used in email - the combination lock on the left hand side door (stairs) only worked once, and not for the rest of the week - our routine became down the stairs and up via the lift - which was great Congrats to the owners - a lovely place

One of the nicest places we’ve stayed, with our dog.

The landlord was very pleasant and if we needed him he was there. I’d recommend it to any small family with a dog as long as your willing to take your dog for a walk a couple of times a day. Couldn’t ask for a nicer view, and you can take your dog on the beach most of the day. I’d give it 10 out of 10

The location of the apartment could not be any better with a fantastic view of Saint Michael's Mount and the whole Bay from the lounge and bedroom windows and the generous sized balcony.

Parking is at the front of the property and there is a lift to the apartment. The lounge and kitchen diner is a good layout and a very nice new shower room has been installed. The kitchen is well equipped including a fridge and separate freezer should you want to stock up on ready meals and ice cream. There is even a fish and chip shop across the road and a few restaurants nearby. It is all very comfortable and convenient. Mobile phone connection is pretty good even from inside the apartments. There is an excellent paddle board and kayak hire place further along the beach near the car park where the coaches Park and there is also an excellent mobile pizza shop.

Mount View is very comfortable place with amazing views and everything on your door step.

We loved watching the sea and tides. This was our second time in the property and would love to come back again.

We had a lovely 4 night stay at Mount View, Marizion.

The apartment is in a breathtaking location with stunning views of St Michael’s Mount. The accommodation is really well equipped and ideally situated. It had a newly fitted bathroom which was great. We absolutely loved it and genuinely didn’t want to leave.

Beautiful apartment the lift is an added bonus but bathroom needs updating and also the blind in kitchen do not work so you have no privacy when lights are on at night from people on the other side of road other than that we were very pleased as we have stayed there several times other the years and the view is fantastic

Wonderful stay yet again.

The views are out of this world.

We had a wonderful week with friends staying at this property.

The lift is an added bonus although anyone with mobility issues would find the shower difficult to get into. Matching glasses and cutlery would have been nice but that is a minor issue. The location is amazing and have already booked to go back to the other apartment on site.

Great central position.

Fantastic views. The lift is great. Spacious and very well equipped, with the added bonus of a parking space right outside. Very comfortable all round. Shower could be better though.

Nice apartment with great views.

The bathroom needs updating as it was I little dated. The apartment was clean but out side the front of the building was very dirty with lots of rubbish and even food. The hall way and stairs are very dirty and didn’t feel very welcoming. For some reason the new door that has recently been installed and landing to our outside balcony would not lock so we couldn’t leave anything outside as It could have been stolen. Overall we did enjoy our stay but at this price point the apartment felt a little tired. For example the knives and forks need replacing as they had rust on them so weren’t nice to eat with.

We absolutely loved our stay in Mount View.

The place was very comfortable and spacious with fabulous sea view and great beach access.

Wonderful property.

The lift is very welcome as we are getting older. Geoff is a lovely host and will help with anything. Will definitely be returning.

Excellent property.

beautiful location. Everything we wanted.

Excellent location, enjoyed our stay.

This was our third visit and the accommodation was as exceptional as usual with fabulous views of St Michael’s Mount .

Another wonderful stay.

It’s like home from home but with fantastic sea views. You could just sit and look out over St Michael’s Bay all day. Already booked for next year and the addition of the lift will be a very welcome bonus.

Lovely apartment & super location.

Just a couple of small criticisms…. Would have liked forewarning of scaffold being erected alongside the balcony for repair work upstairs. Thankfully, it didn’t happen until the last couple of days of our holiday ! Secondly, any guest planning to sleep in the double bed needs to be aware that it has a very soft mattress. Obviously not a problem for everyone but, anyone with a back problem, (like my husband), it can cause sleeping issues.

Lovely property, excellent location, and really helpful owner!

Really clean and well Supplied as well, and right on the beach so perfect with the children. Would probably benefit from a bigger sign saying parking for number two as we could t spot it till they phoned and helped.

Mount view is a lovely and homely apartment, with great views, in a good location, overlooking St Michael’s Mount in Marazion.

Everything you need for an easy stay is provided … the apartment is very well equipped, and we dubbed it ‘a home from home’ which was a real bonus given the weather we had during our week was a bit mixed. The apartment was lovely to relax in, and we loved the sea views and well equipped balcony. Local amenities are within a short walk of the apartment, including a great village pub, fish and chip and a pasty shop which provided the best we have ever had! I would recommend this apartment for any time of year. We have booked to return next year.

Happy wit the property and aspect, however the automated car park payment system that had to be used due to the building work did not work properly meaning I had to pay £84 instead of £50.

Then the noise and the dust from the building works was uncomfortable and at times difficult to breath. The property should not have been let with the building work taking place

Beautiful views from the property but needs some tlc work men came early morning not ideal for a holiday apartment only had warning one week before, wrong key code given for the apartment door which meant sitting on the stairs waiting for contact from the apartment owners, toilet didn’t flush too good and water pressure pretty bad.

On the whole it’s a very nice property and we’re aware that works needs to be done but not while we’re there!!! Probably would not book again but we do like to travel round the country

Bit late with my review, lovely week stay here, views amazing, wife lived the kitchen, real fire was a bonus.

Only downsides were the shower and the light on the stairs, I know there is an issue with the pressure, but was a but of a pain having a shower, also could do with the light staying on longer in the winter months. These were minor issue's though, loved our stay here and would recommend it to anyone, picture perfect view, ideal location for exploring the area.

We found everything to be as listed.

Was very satisfied with apartment and location. Everything was clean and tidy. Had an excellent stay..

What a fantastic seaside you have!

This was our first non hotel booking and we were thrilled with our choice from the moment we arrived. The apartment was welcoming, clean and spacious and felt very homely. There was everything you could need to have a fantastic holiday and the telescope was an unexpected but added bonus. We enjoyed watching the people get caught out by the tide when crossing back from St Michael's Mount!! We were aware of the water pressure issue but it really wasn't that much of an issue and we would definitely love to stay here again. Thank you again for sharing your both your apartment and that stunning view.

Fab holiday second time there and rebooked for next year the only issue the gate hasn’t been put back on 5 stars recommend to any one

Mount View is certainly a great apartment with a fantastic view.

‘A view to die for’ The apartment had a good layout with generous size and was very well decorated and very clean. Housekeeping kept in touch to check if we needed a clean linen/change. Very friendly lady. Thank you :) The kitchen was so well kitted out with more than enough pots and pans to use and the dishwasher a plus. We loved the telescope on a stand which was used often. We had meals on the balcony to enjoy the wonderful views over the bay/beach and St Michaels Mount. Marazion is a town with pubs, shops for all we needed. The bus stops just outside on the main road made the coast/towns very accessible. We enjoyed the Coast bus rides to Penzance, beautiful St Ives and Lands End. We had a great time. Sadly the double bed mattress needs replacing. As it dips down the whole left side near the wardrobes. Hubby felt he was falling out of bed. This is not because of bed preference it was so obvious even when looking at. As mentioned by other reviews Water/toilet flow had low pressure but to be fair works had started to improve this by the water board whilst we were there. Would recommend and would love to return one day. Thought it was good value for money. Great find for a beach, coastal holiday break with an amazing view.

Best one yet!

Everything was wonderful, we had a fab relaxing time, with the most amazing sea views.

The one tiny thing I would change is the toilet flush and the bath filling, so a small plumbing issue, but did not affect our enjoyment of the apartment 10 out of 10 overall!!

The flat is amazing and the view the best we've had in ten years of visiting the town annually.

Decor is beautiful and everything perfectly provided, the cream tea and roses being much appreciated. Beds and sofas were comfortable, the TV fine and the crockery lovely. HOWEVER we have to say that the plumbing leaves a lot to be desired. Water pressure failed completely a few times, the bath took half an hour to fill, the shower was weak and either scalding or freezing, and the toilet sometimes took multiple attempts to flush properly. Such a shame, as we so enjoyed and appreciated everything else and would love to return, if we could be sure the above was rectified.

Had an amazing stay.

The apartment is beautiful, with lots of essentials provided. The balcony provided large sweeping views of the bay and st michaels mount. Absolutely fantastic location with sea views.

Very good, had brilliant stay, only issues were, toilet flush kept going after flushing (we had to wiggle it to stop it running on, so no big problem).

Small leak under kitchen sink had to empty the container that had been put there a couple of times, again no problem. All in all wonderful time though. Would recommend to anyone, certainly return!

Superb property.

Everything you could wish for in the flat, spotlessly clean, amazing views. Loved watching the world go by from the balcony. Fantastic sunsets. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you :)

What a fantastic place ,we went to celebrate my 50th birthday and it was the best birthday ever .

The apartment was clean , the views are amazing didn't switch tv on at all didn't want to miss a view like that.

The lock on the patio door is very problematic.

The bath taps are very slow. The toilet flush needs new siphon. We had an absolutely wonderful stay. Wonderful location and very comfortable.

we had a great stay at this property fantastic location very homely inside views to die for the only sad bit was its already booked for next year but we will be back in the future.

The flat had everything you would wish for.

The cream tea milk and flowers where a lovely touch. The view was to die for. The town had everything you needed. We did not use the car and caught the bus to St Ives and Lands end. The only small down side was there is no double glazing on the side by the road so you could here the hum of the traffic. Would definitely go back again. Thank you Jane

We really enjoyed our week at Marazion!

The accommodation was brilliant. The owners went above and beyond expectations to provide clean and comfortable accommodation. Any negative issues we had were with Sykes, who were very hard to get hold of, never returned calls when they said they would, and generally ignored our communications leading up to the holiday. But in the end, all worked out and we were very satisfied.

Lovely apartment, great location & great views!

We had a wonderful holiday

We had an issue with the allocated parking as when we came back to the property on Thursday evening after a full day out and with bags of shopping and the need to start loading the car for leaving the following day, the parking spot was taken by someone we found was visiting downstairs and they had been told to park there by the the person who lives there, I would suggest Private Parking signs and marking the bays again.

The windows at the front of the property could do with replacing as 2 pains if glass in the kitchen were broken and the old sash type windows don’t keep any noise out. The mattresses could with changing as these are not very comfortable compared to last time we stayed. I would say however that the location and the view from the fantastic balcony make up for any of the issues and we would recommend to anyone to book as we will hopefully be booking again.

We had good time, first time using Sykes and travelling with a dog.

The apartment was good… a few things I think would make it better, but maybe personal choice. I’d prefer king size bed and think the side gate needs some attention

Excellent amenities and location to various attractions.

The beds comfortable and clean. There was an issue with the flush on the toilet and water pressure from bath very slow to fill. This was certainly nothing major and didn’t cause any major problems. There is parking directly outside the property as described but the bays are not marked and therefore it’s first come first serve It would appear. Luckily we only had an issue with parking once in the week there which forced us in to a nearby car park, bit of a hassle and additional expense but one of them things.

The apartment was very good, unfortunately the outside on arrival looked in need of some TLC.

On arrival , it was VERY difficult to open the entrance door, this was known because the door was NOT locked, The lifting handle which require lifting to engage the lock was so stiff that my wife was not able to operate it !

! A maintenance man came to look at the lock and would contact another to fix it, this was not done before our early departure. Also, the toilet flush button only worked intermitantly , This was looked at again by the same man who got it working but again it failed so requiring the toilet to be bucket flushed,. I feel that both problems were probably known before our arrival and were ignored.

The location gives a simply fantastic view of the beach, the whole bay and a sensational view of Mount St Michael It is a very short walk to the shops, pubs etc and there is an excellent fish and chip shop almost opposite The external metal staircase was easy to use Thoroughly recommended

Wonderful flat and setting, really enjoyed our holiday.

It is the 3rd time we have booked Mount View. But, the cold tap in the bedroom overlooking the sea screeches and shakes unless you have it full on. The other concern was the lock on the door is getting harder and tighter to lock from the outside and took us a while each time to lock properly, although we know how it obviously locks

Loved it.

Loved it. Loved it. The apartment, the view, the location was amazing. Would return in a heartbeat.

Absolutely beautiful location and great property.

Everything was exactly as described.

We had a great time at Mount view.

The apartment is of a good size and has a lovely kitchen/diner with open space lounge overlooking the bay. The deco is cosy and the house was very clean. The views from the terrace are really wonderful and you can just sit down and relax after a day out looking out, watching the sunset and the world go by. The location is perfect to just walk down the beach or the coastal path and the available parking space is really useful as otherwise the other option is the busy car park by the apartment which although cheap, £4,50 a day gets very busy. Pro of the apartment: Location, close to the shops, watersports activities, supermarkets, by the beach, close to other towns (driving 20 /45mins) like St. Ives, Newquay, Kaiance cove, Prussia cove, Penzance etc. Large kitchen (with everything you need!) and sofas from which you can enjoy the views. Good size bathroom/shower. Good size second bedroom with single beds Good Terrace with spectacular views. Fish & Chips right in front of the house. Cons: The double bed in the master bedroom is a little on the small size and not the most comfortable but it didn't ruin our holiday at all, we have a super king at home so it was just something to get use to for us. The pressure of the toilet is very low, this means that you may need to flash the toilet a few times but again not a big issue. Overall we really enjoyed the stay and we would love to come back to this apartment!

The view from the property a moving picture

We wanted good views of St Michael's Mount and the bay.

The balcony could not have been better positioned to see The Mount. The flat, especially the kitchen, was very well equipped with a wide range of utensils, equipment and crockery. The beds were very comfortable though the double bed seemed a bit small in relation to the one I'm used to. Wifi signal was good. We'd certainly return and would recommend to others.

Mount View provided a great location with parking and accessible for lots of great attractions.

Beds were comfy, the apartment was nice and clean, the cream tea on arrival was a lovely touch. Outdoor furniture was great and the view was amazing. Beaches clean, nice restaurants, shops and play park within walking distance. Couple of very minor issues, locks were stiff and having to slam the door to close and the shower wasn't powerful enough. Didn’t affect the enjoyment of the holiday though. Would love to return!

The views from this property was outstanding and it was a very comfortable place to stay.

A wonderful 1st floor apartment with its own external stairs to reach the gated balcony with fantastic views of St.

Michael's Mount and the beach. The small car park below is of no concern, especially if you like people come and go. External table and chairs to drink and dine and umbrella for some shade of needed. Inside, the apartment is light and airy with open plan lounge and kitchen diner. Sofas are comfortable with views out to the sea as does the master bedroom. Modern kitchen with plenty of space. A couple of minor issues for us but none that spoilt our holiday. The dining table is in the middle of the kitchen which can get in the way when cooking. It would be nice to move the table to the window, out of the way and there is room. However that leaves the low hanging dining light at head level. A retractable light fitting would solve this The bathroom needs some updating but nothing serious here. Finally, we found the beds to be a little uncomfortable and I think new beds are in order. But then, this could also be what we are used to. Would definitely recommend a holiday here and we will be back.

We had a wonderful holiday.

Visited The Lizard (superb, unspoiled, two good cafes near lighthouse, good shops in village). Visited St Ives. Parking is pathetic in St Ives, so we parked for free in Long Rock (near Marazion) and went to St Ives on the bus (using senior bus passes for free) - very good journey. St Ives is superb in every way except for parking. Visited Penzance (very interesting) and Mousehole (superb in every way). Newlyn is not worth visiting. Visited St Michael's Mount (superb building, and the gardens were truly amazing). Visited other places too. The apartment was very good. Really enjoyed the view from the lounge/balcony - watching people walking to St Michael's Mount, and the little boats too - watching the local sailing club go out - watching the tide go in and out - watching the Scillonian III arrive and depart from Penzance. Walked on Marazion beach every day. The location of the apartment was excellent, what with good views from it and easy access to main roads for getting about and hand Morrisons/Sainsburys/Tesco just a mile or two away. I suppose everything has a downside. With the apartment it was the locks and doors to get in and out - we did manage to unlock and open all three doors (one to the main building - code, one to the apartment itself - code, one to the balcony - key) and to open the key safe to get the key, but all were difficult and stiff; however, we soon got used to using the balcony door with the key and ignored the other doors, but all this did NOT spoil the holiday. Also, there is an issue with the parking - the spaces were poorly identified and need new lines and numbering - we had to put notes on other cars windscreens to ask the owners to park more tidily; again, this did NOT spoil the holiday.

It was great to see that the owners had redecorated and tidied some areas of the apartment, and replaced some of the frying pans etc.

Seeing as there is no washing machine, maybe a small, round, old fashioned spinner would be appropriate, we have used these in other properties, with a bucket to catch the water, as it's very difficult to wash and dry your clothes/wetsuits. This would make the job of wringing out much easier, and I would definitely use it on our next visit. Maybe they could store it in one of the wardrobes, although I know space is very tight! Other than that our stay was perfect, loved the outdoor seating and cushions, and the fact that they have got rid of the old hedge and made a new named parking space for the car now, brilliant, much better. This is one of the best situated holiday lets in Marazion!

A beautiful apartment with stunning views, extremely comfortable and well kitted out.

We had a brilliant week, thanks so much

We had a super stay at the flat again - you just can't beat that view!

Just a couple of things - the hot water wasn't switched on when we arrived. The water is an issue as the shower has very low pressure and the bath takes an age to fill. I expect the owner has this on their list to sort out. The repairs to the balcony door are great so that despite the high winds and driving rain we were totally dry and warm. The heating is good and we especially love the solid fuel fire. Thank you x

This flat has the most incredible view.

You can watch the ever changing sea and the various people , dogs and boats coming and going. Wonderful ! It is well equipped with a very effective log burner to snuggle up in front of. We’ve already booked another week .

The perfect base for touring south Cornwall in the perfect location.

The accommodation is excellent, the generous balcony let us just sit on nothing days, with ice cream of course, and watch the view together with passing people and many other happenings, wonderful.

The apartment is in a great location with fantastic views of St Michaels Mount it’s right in the town of Marazion with its shops and restaurants all on the doorstep.

The facilities are good and everything is comfortable. We really enjoyed sitting on the large balcony with great views of the ocean and a great location for people watching. It’s the sort of place that you don’t want to move from, it’s got better views than most places in the town and right across the road is a really good fish and chip shop. All the major supermarkets are a 2 miles drive away so if the weather is good I would suggest that you stock up and stay in and enjoy the accommodation it’s very special. It’s a shame that it’s not nearer to our home in Aberdeen! We will definitely be coming back.

We had a fantastic stay at Mount View, and everything we had hoped the place to be was correct.

The view from the balcony was amazing, waking up to that every morning, and relaxing in the evenings was perfect. The accommodation was like home from home. Lovely comfortable beds, nice and quiet in the evenings. The living area and kitchen met all our needs. We had 2 pubs only a minute stroll down the street and a great chippy across the road. We will definitely be back again very soon Terry Barker, Crewe, Cheshire

was the flat perfect - No, was it very good - Yes the frying pans were not good, we had to buy our own could have done with a five foot wide bed, but we didn't buy one

Great view great place

Beautiful view and lounge area - log fire and the view made the holiday.

Brilliant location

Would have liked the check in a bit earlier

Fantastic accomodation and perfect location for the beach and sailing club which helped make this a great holiday for all of our family.
