This house has the most amazing views and the majority of it was refurbished to a very high standard with unexpected additions such as a Quooker tap! The two bathrooms downstairs do not live up to the high standard of the rest of the house, the lower ground shower would not stay up to get underneath, and the adults staying in these rooms opted to use the upstairs showers when available. In the lower room the bed had not been made up otherwise it would have been noted that the mattress was covered in biscuit crumbs. The small bath towels would not dry as the radiators were not on and labelled not to be switched on, these we draped in the bedrooms where the sun is. When we tried to hoover areas that were missed unfortunately the hoover was ineffective. The saucepans had the teflon scratched in all cases, which is unhygienic so were not used and the oven pan had not been cleaned, there were no other baking trays. There were no clear waste bags and we did feel that perhaps the house had not had the same clean and attention usually given by the Sykes cleaners. The house has many positives, the scones milk etc on arrival were very much appreciated and was a lovely touch. The house itself is in a fabulous position as we discovered staying at Landscombe last year, the views are amazing. We would very much like to consider returning to Skerries and feel the above areas could be very easily addressed and would very much like your comments. You may publish our comments if you wish but have not agreed in the box due to some negatives.

The house was just what we needed for a party of 10.. The views and location was stunning and it catered for our every need. My only comment is, I wish you could bring a dog as the walks around the house were made for dog walking!

Super property! There were 8 of us and although there were plenty of dining chairs, we felt that there could be a few more chairs with the patio set. Also, the page about the bin collections was missing - we did make enquiries locally and got some of the rubbish removed on the correct day. These are just a couple of observations and did not detract from the holiday. The kitchen was extremely well equipped and we found everything else we wanted. Have booked with Helpful Holidays and would certainly do so again. Great time, many thanks, Meriel Ovens

The house is set on the top of a hill with wonderful panoramic views of the countryside and sea.. It is an ideal location to relax and enjoy what Dartmouth and the surrounding area has to offer. The house easily catered for the 7 of us and had all the requirements you could think of - we were welcomed with scones, Cornish cream and jam which was very nice after along journey.
