• "We had a fabulous few days."

  The house is warm and comfortable with everything one needed. It's location, just a few minutes walk from the railway station, was very useful and much easier than driving into St Ives! Also close to the beach although having a dog, limited on access until the end of September. However, there are dog friendly beaches only a short distance away.

  Thank you for your feedback we are pleased to see that you had a fabulous stay. We hope to have the oppotunity to welcome you back again in the near future. Warm regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

• "A lovely and comfortable house to stay in for your holiday."

  It has everything you need and in a nice and quiet street, the neighbours are also very nice friendly. Theres a short (but steep stroll) to Carbis bay beach. The train station is only round the corner for a 4 minute train ride to st ives with lots of shops and cafes. We would definitely stay there again.

• "The property had been trashed by the previous guests,the cleaner told us had She said she would need extra time to clean the property, We were received outside by a group of angry residents,saying look there’s another dog, This was intimidating!"

  Eventually we could enter the property, The windows were covered in dog slober, there was food left on the Crockery and utensils , The grill pan was covered in fat residue , I tried to contact the number provided with know answer, Sykes office was then closed, By now we are both very uncomfortable an disappointed.. we decided to return home in the morning, I contacted your office with several conversations with your representative,was eventually told nothing could be offered in the way of compensation,an my option was to go to a small claims court. We not only had our week from work ruined, we felt extremely let down by your company. Regards Paul.

• "Place was lovely and clean and tidy and a great location with quick access to the train station and a short although steep walk down to the beach!"

  The carpark was little noisy in the morning at times but we wake up early so that didn't bother us really but might want to bring ear plugs if you like to sleep in! I found the double memory foam topper too hard for our liking but all the kids found there mattresses comfortable. I would recommend they add some blanket to the sofa as it wasn't very comfortable on the leather sofas! Great stay would like to stay again

• "We loved our stay at Pentreath and will definitely be returning in the future."

  The house was in the perfect location for jumping on a train into St Ives or for spending the day at Carbis Bay beach although that hill never gets any easier! The house was very well equipped and had everything you could need and more for a holiday - I felt like the listing on the website didn't do the property justice in terms of what it provided so this could definitely be updated.

  Thankyou so much! I’m glad you had a lovely holiday. Your positive feedback is much appreciated . Property Owner

• "We had a wonderful week at Pentreath - simply walking to the beach with our dog, getting the late train back from St Ives, etc."

  We had read the previous reviews and saw a couple about cleanliness and some of the furnishings. But for our stay anything that needed actioning had been done. The decor is lovely, the kitchen has everything you would need to cook a big meal, outside there's room and a house to rinse wetsuits. Would stay again.

  Thank you for taking time to give us feedback we are glad you had a wonderful week. We are pleased that everything that needing actioning had been done before your stay. We look forward to seeing you again in the near future. Warm Regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

  Reported tuesday of stay but aparrantly because we didnt want to waste holiday time waiting in - we thought other things apart from toilet - (which we did ) - would be done on changeover - the owner cant be approached for good will gesture ! Poor customer service and disappointed with response we received by email.

• "Have been using Sykes for a good couple of years now and have recommended them to many people."

  Although the house was in a great location and was modern and well equipped, it seemed like it was a bit unloved the carpets had stains on and the bathroom cabinet and towel racks were rusted the toilet also smelt and was brown like it needed bleaching . The curtains in the front bedroom were hanging by threads to the rail so we left them shut rather than open and closing each day. The fridge wasn’t very good either and the food I bought with us for breakfast and lunches went in the bin by Tuesday along with the dogs food. The cleaning wasn’t great down stairs either the kitchen floor had crumbs on it and the floors looked like they needed mopping ( I would have done this myself but there was no mop ). The down stairs toilet hadn’t been flushed either. All in all very disappointing after the beautiful property we stayed in last year we thought it would be of the same standard. I would be reluctant to book this property again.

  We spent Xmas here,it was nice that a few Xmas decorations were put up. The accommodation is well laid out,kitchen is very well equipped, however just a couple of things there was an iron but no ironing board, requested the ZIP bed but it was not done, and nothing to put hot plates/baking trays on when come out of the oven… however this did not ruin our holiday and would definitely recommend.

  Dear Mrs Luton, Thank you for taking the time to submit your feedback. The items you have raised as missing we will ask the housekeeper to look into this on changeover and approach the owner to replace if necessary. We apologise for the zip-link bed not being made up as you requested. Thank you again and we hope to welcome you back in the near future. Kind Regards, Owner Relations, Carbis Bay Holidays.

  Fabulous facilities and perfect location for the beach, both at Carbis Bay and our fantastic place St Ives. The only room for improvement would be a few more recycling bins as we got through a lot of bottles of wine! Looking forward to coming back next year! Thank you.

  It had everything we needed! Also, due to the winder winds hanging on in there it was very cosy and warm to come home to. We have enjoyed Carbis Bay.

• ""We had a fantastic holiday and although we have been to Cornwall many times, the little extras Carbis Bay Holidays provided, made it a bit more special!"

  It was a very long journey and to be welcomed with a cream tea was a lovely surprise. The house was amazing and very clean, and everything you could possibly need was provided. Our favourite walk was to pick up fish and chips at St Ives harbour, then walk through the back streets until we came to the little church perched on top of The Island. It’s such a breathtaking place to sit and have a picnic, we really didn’t want to leave. We loved the little shops in the High Street especially the one that sells the most amazing curry sauces and pickles. The shopkeepers were extremely friendly and urged us to think about coming back for the New Year. (Something we hadn’t considered before). This is the first time in many years that everyone in the family wanted to stay longer. The house had a lovely feel to it and is very well placed near the train station and for walking to the shops. We really can’t wait to come back and would definitely recommend ‘Carbis Bay Holidays’ and ‘Pentreath’." N. Fettah

• ""I think we were the first guests at Pentreath and I have to compliment both yourselves and the owners for making this a great base for our Easter holiday."

  The cleaning was exceptional and the property beautifully prepared for our arrival, all the furnishing has been carefully thought out by the owner and provides a lovely holiday feel. We entertained our grandchildren for some of the time so the games and toys for indoor and outdoor use were appreciated. It was a pleasure to return to the property after long days out exploring the area. We would strongly recommend Paradise Park, managing to amuse the kids for over 5 hours, the beach is of course just a short walk away from Pentreath so that provided daily free entertainment. We had a takeaway from Becks, had a lovely brunch at Godrevy Cafe with a refreshing walk on the beach afterwards, what stunning views to Godrevy Lighthouse. Another trip to recommend was to the Seal Sanctuary at Gweek, again this kept the kids amused for a long time - educational as well! All in all, it was great holiday and Pentreath suited us as an ideal base to look around the area, loved the rear garden, quite a sun trap great for a bbq." A. Straw
