"A very comfortable, welcoming and ideally placed cottage."
You can walk into Culzean Castle grounds from here, Turnberry lighthouse, and Maidens and Turnberry beaches. There was a nice little welcome pack for the dog, and biscuits, tea and coffee to start you off. The locals are very friendly, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
Thank you very much for your fabulous review of No 22.I am so happy you enjoyed your stay even although the weather wasn't the best .We look forward to your return visit and hope you have a lovely Christmas. Kind regards Jane.

"On the whole we had a good week, however the house wasn’t up to the usual Sykes standards."
The kitchen smelt of oil (boiler) so unfortunately we had to leave the kitchen window open during our stay. The handles on the internal doors were hard work when the doors were closed and something rattled on the side of the house (I think it was the aerial) in the wind which you could hear in the upstairs bedroom. There is not a pub as described but a Bistro who were only open until 6pm in the week, 11pm Friday and Saturday, and not dog friendly inside (as most places we visited during our stay). There was a hotel which had a lovely restaurant but again not dog friendly. Although the weather was kind, it is a bit cold to eat and drink outside at this time of year. Despite the issues with the house, it was cozy and the shower and beds were nice, however we would not return.
So sorry you didn't enjoy your stay at No22 . I have taken on board the house issues (boiler). We are a small community and we were delighted when Ropes opened 3 years ago as we had no pub in the village for many years, their no dog policy inside is maybe not ideal in the winter months. Jane

"Immaculate and well-presented cottage."
The kitchen is small but well-equipped for a self-catering break. The beds & pillows were very comfortable. Downstairs cloakroom very useful. The adjoining neighbour has a little dog which we heard from time to time. Otherwise, an extremely quiet location.
Thank you very much for your very kind review and we are delighted you enjoyed your stay at No 22 and hope you return again.Jane

"The steps to the back door are steep and we had to be very careful stepping over the threshold."
The kitchen is very small and didn't have any containers for cooking in the microwave, also the oil boiler had a strong odour. The fridge is very small, although the small freezer was useful. The door into the lounge sticks, and we had a job opening it. The settees in the lounge are a lovely colour but not very comfortable. The TV signal was very poor, often we would sit and watch the circle go round and round! The upstairs bedroom was very comfortable and the shower room was great apart from the sticky floor. The wardrobe and drawers were very useful. A night light would be useful at the top of the stairs.
Thank you for the feedback on your stay. We shall take all of this on board as many of these points have not been made by any previous guests. We aim to continually improve the cottage and try to make the quests as comfortable as possible.
Kind regards

"We absolutely loved this lovely little house in Maidens."
It was scrupulously clean and the beds were complete luxury, very big and new. Everything felt generous, from the large white towels, to the provisions and gifts left for us and our dog! The garden was perfect for sitting in and the dog was free to roam. The neighbours were friendly and welcoming and we loved Maidens. We’d certainly go again!

"The house was clean, well decorated and comfortable."
All the following are minor points. The kitchen needs to be redesigned. A small fridge and miniature icebox are no good it needs a fridge freezer. A redesign could include more cupboards and better working space. Similarly with the living room - swap the TV and the sofa facing it and you have a whole empty corner to put the dining table. A back door light with a sensor is badly needed. It was windy while we were there and the upstairs windows allowed the wind to howl through the house - I wondered why the bathroom door had a robust draft proof fitted to the bottom. Overall though it was a nice house in a nice area - we enjoyed our stay.
Thank you for the great feedback. We have already installed a sensor light to the rear door and have plans to upgrade the kitchen soon. We will take on board the comments in the remodel.

"Only small problem."
We arrived late and it was dark so we could not see safe numbers at the back door. Fortunately because we had our dog with us we had a torch. Maybe a light in the back would be good otherwise fabulous cottage spotlessly clean and would highly recommend it. Loved the personal touch with biscuits t bags sugar etc and little present for the dog. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the feedback and we hope you enjoyed your stay. We have now installed an exterior light at the rear door to ease access.

"Loved the place on arrival, great small touches such as milk, tea , coffee, fresh flowers in living room, clean towels and bedding."
The place was very clean and had an airy feel to it. Lovely neighbour who even gave us fresh home grown tomatoes. Nice view to the rear of harbour and next door neighbours carvings and fish pond. However the kitchen was not the best. The indoor oil boiler ruined our stay, the fumes coming from this was unhealthy to say the least, we had to keep the windows and back door open if it was running. We forgot to leave the windows open after a day out to return and walk into a fine infested house, I checked the detector just to see if it was working, twice at night I was wearing if windows closed and boiler running. Plastic tiles beside a cooker not clever, I cooked one meal on it and never used again as I prefer a constant temperature. The washing machine I had to hold down when on soon so not to upset the neighbour. Kitchen inside door handle about to come off. If the kitchen had not been so bad would have been 4 or 5 star.
Hi Alexander, thank you for your feedback. I am sorry you felt as thought the kitchen is not up to the standard of the rest of the house. As noted in the handbook we are proposing to upgrade the kitchen fully in time. Prior to commencing letting in July, all necessary upgrades and repairs were made to the central heating and boiler to pass assessment by an OFTEC registered repairer. So hopefully this can put your mind at rest.
We will also be checking on the cooker / hob as you noted the temperature issue, this is also new and can be replaced easily. Induction hobs like this are also much safer and should not cause any H&S concerns.
We hope you will consider returning to Twenty Two as your feedback has been helpful and you noted many good points too.
Many thanks

Good base for visiting places such as the lovely Port Patrick to the south or heading north to Ardrossan for day sails to Arran. One bar called Ropes on the front which will allow dogs outside and just a few minutes drive to Balkenna tea rooms.
