"A lovely apartment."
Well equipped and maintained. Parking a bit tight but not an issue. Fantastic location opposite the beach. We loved it and would stay there again. Sofas a little dated and not the most comfy but only a minor point.
-
"The parking space is really difficult, but we know that you cannot do anything about it."
However, it would put us off booking again (unless we come without a car!)
Thank you for the great review and we’re sorry that you found the parking difficult. Property Owner

"Would highly recommend this spacious, quiet, well equipped apartment."
We've never seen such stunning views from a property ! Our favourite restaurant was the Beach House - but you need to book most restaurants well in advance. Enjoyed our takeaway Sri Lankan curry on Barricombe Beach on a nice sunny evening too .
Thank you for the great review. We’re so pleased that you enjoyed the apartment and the village’s eateries. We hope you’ll consider coming again. Property Owner

"Arrived to find the boiler was broken so there was no heating or hot water - had to buy temporary heater the cost of which was reimbursed."
Luckily a plumber repaired the boiler in the Sunday but Sykes cottages accepted no responsibility that the apartment was not in a fit state to occupy and refused to offer any compensation!
Apologies for not responding sooner. We had a breakdown of comms in our household! We’re sorry that you were inconvenienced by the problem with the boiler. We thought, at the time, you were satisfied with our actions and the fan heater. We hope this doesn’t prevent you from visiting again as we do appreciate your custom, and believe your visits before this one have gone well. Best regards Property Owner

"Clean and good location."
No lock found for small body board shed. Would have liked clearer warning of parking space limitation (on steep hill, parallel park next to wall between 2 other cars in too short space for family estate car). Also cannot take surf boards or wetsuits (winter challenge!) into property so no secure storage for board apart from top of car in view of road. Would have appreciated heating being turned on just to take the chill away as it was all off and freezing when we arrived. Enjoyed the stay and Woolacombe.

"Excellent Apartment."
Great views.
-
"What a view, the apartment was beautiful and very comfortable."
We had a fabulous time. We would have loved to come back again next year but ran into problems with Sykes and the prices on the website. My husband spoke with Sykes on the phone and then has sent an email which has not been replied to. If we can find the apartment on another website we may be back but we will not be using Sykes again.

"Excellent property."
Only criticism was the venetian blinds in the bedrooms which allow far to much light through and which should be replaced with curtains, or opaque blinds
-
"The apartment was excellent, very clean and had everything we needed."
The location was perfect, close to all the shops and restaurants, with beautiful sea and beach views. Also, an ideal spot for walking both ways along the coast. The only issue was parking, which was very challenging. We were lucky that there was no one staying in apartment 3, otherwise it would have been nigh on impossible.

"Another wonderful stay at Hartland view just a shame the living room windows ..."
Another wonderful stay at Hartland view just a shame the living room windows were so dirty on the outside that it impacted on the amazing views from the apartment
We’re sorry that the windows weren’t up to standard. We have them regularly cleaned but unfortunately, with being right on the seafront, they do become salt covered very quickly. We hope it didn’t impact on your enjoyment too much. Property Owner
-
"Fabulous apartment with amazing views."
Very well equipped and very clean. Perfect position, close to the beach, pubs and shops. Hopefully it won't be too long before we are back
Thank you for the lovely feedback. We look forward to your next visit. Property Owner

"Great Location, Outstanding view of beach,Lovely Apartment, let down by silly ..."
Great Location, Outstanding view of beach,Lovely Apartment, let down by silly things dirty frying pans, tin opener seized shut with rust, broken bed base propped up with 2 bits of wood (so uncomfortable, have bad back anyway), Overall we enjoyed our stay but would have booked again for next year but for the little things
Hi, thank you for your feedback and I am glad that overall you enjoyed your stay. The central bed legs have now been replaced which should provide more support and the can opener replaced. We have also asked our housekeeper to replace the frying pan. Thank you again for your comments. Property Owner

"This is a really lovely warm and cosy apartment, with a stunning view of the whole of Woolacombe beach."
It has a very well appointed kitchen with everything needed to cook a full meal, along with a washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave and coffee machine. The bed was very comfortable, along with 2 bathrooms with great showers. All was clean and tidy with items left to make the stay really easy and welcoming. The only tiny issue we noticed was some of the interior paint was bubbling on the outer lounge wall and the outer bedroom wall, presumably because some water had got in at some point. But this in no way affected our experience of the apartment. Communication was excellent from booking and we would definitely stay here again. Thank you for having us.
Many thanks for the detailed feedback. We are so pleased that you enjoyed the apartment. With regards the two limited areas of peeling paint, we replastered and repainted a section of the wall in the lounge in the spring of ‘22 but, unfortunately, the issue has reoccurred, resulting in a small area of bubbling paintwork. We are working with the property management company to resolve some external issues before we redecorate again. Thankfully there is no mould. Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay."
Apartment really comfy and clean. View is amazing from the apartment. I gave 4 stars as only thing was parking space for the apartment was on steep incline and if cars in front and behind you are in trying to use reverse on the incline doesn’t do the gearbox any good. But it won’t stop us from coming back.
Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We look forward to welcoming you back at a future date. We have made some further improvements to the property recently which we hope you will finding pleasing. The driveway, as you point out, can be a little challenging. Hopefully, with everything being so close by, it wasn’t a daily irritant. Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay, thanks."
Such a superb location overlooking the beach.
Many thanks for the review. Property Owner

"Every glowing report of the special features offered by this property proved to be true."
The location is perfect, with the beach close by, and the views of the beach spectacular. Clearly the property is undergoing some upgrades, with a beautiful new cooking unit. We washed our dishes by hand, so couldn’t report on the dishwasher, but made good use of the washing machine and the thoughtfully supplied drying rack. Our group agreed that we would absolutely love to repeat our visit! One tiny suggestion would be to provide a broom and dustpan.
Thank you for your review. Suggestion duly noted and we have provided a broom alongside the dustpan/brush and hoover. We appreciate you wanting to keep the property clean and tidy. Many thanks. Property Owner

"A lovely comfortable apartment with fantastic views and close to all the facilities."
Only down side is the parking as that is not good being on a very steep slope and having to park between two cars.
-
"Loved our first family holiday at Hartland View, location and views were amazing."
Was great to be so close to the beach, shops, and restaurants, especially with a little one. Apartment was comfortable, but there are some repairs and cleaning needed in some rooms and kitchen equipment needs to be reviewed. As mentioned in other reviews, parking was not easy - middle bay on a fairly steep incline. We were fortunate that the end bay was empty for most of our stay, but may have been stuck if other residents were in.
-
"We had an amazing stay in the Hartland View Apartment 2 , the location was perfect so too were the facilities in the accommodation ."
The property was amaculate and the views over the beach were fabulous, we could not recommend this accommodation enough and look forward to a return visit.

"Firstly, the location of the apartment is AMAZING."
It's so handy to be so close to the beach and the town, and have a car parking space. On a surface level, the apartment is great. Comfy beds and sofas, a (pretty) well stocked kitchen, and a good sized en-suite. The weekly clean is good. The main bathroom is small, and tricky to bath two children in, but this won't be an issue to all. However, the apartment is in need of some TLC, and a proper deep clean. There are areas throughout the apartment where wall paint is pealing, the ensuite shower base came apart, there are lose tiles in the ensuite, and whilst we were there, one of the blinds in the sitting room almost fell out of the ceiling. This is our second visit to the apartment (first visited in May 2021), and it felt like some issues had deteriorated since then. We had a few issues with the bath when we first arrived, which were communicated to the homeowner immediately. A plumber was organised ASAP, and we have no issues with the communication with the homeowner - we appreciated how quickly he responded to us. On the whole the apartment is fab, but needs some love to iron out a few issues.

"Absolutely stunning apartment and such an amazing view."
Brilliant location in the town. Everything you need on your doorstep without being noisy or busy. Super comfy with everything you could need. We had great weather most of the week but it's a lovely warm flat in cooler weather too. So pleased we stayed here. It was worth the wait after being postponed through the pandemic. Will definitely be booking again.
-
"Just got back from a truly amazing stay at Hartland view ."
Wonderful apartment with breathtakingly stunning views of woolacombe Beach. We will definitely be booking again .
-
"The property was easy to find with the bonus of a parking space."
It was very comfortable with everything you could need and the views were stunning. Ideally situated for restaurants, cafes and pubs.
-
"Perfect location; waking up and seeing the sea from my bed was just amazing."
-
"The apartment is great."
Perfect location to beach and town. Amazing views spacious. Loved our week away. Only down side for this property is the allocated car park. You need to park between two cars on a steep incline. We had to ask the Oort her car to move to get out safely. If they weren’t in we would have been stuck.
-
"Parking very awkward, not ideal."
Apartment needs TLC Mold coming through paint work. Windows that don't open. Sink trap leaking. Fridge door and fittings broken not there. Door on dishwasher losing covering. Grill pan dirty. Sofas totally uncomfortable. Couldn't use garden due to all the wet suits drying on table and chairs. Smoke from neighbors fire pit came in through windows. Handle on bedroom wardrobe coming off
-
"A lovely apartment, very accessible to beach and town, beautiful view from lounge window of the beach and surrounding countryside."
We would definitely book to stay again.
-
"Five days after we left Hardland we had a call from Lisa, one of your staff who left a message on my mobile."
We think the message was about a key. We tried to return the call 3 times, each time we got through to one of your departments who transferred us to another department. On each occasion we hung on, the last time for over 20 minutes, we never did find out what the original telephone call was about.
-
"We had a lovely time here: a neat and tidy, airy apartment overlooking the beach and just a short walk from cafes and restaurants."
-
"Brilliant accommodation with beautiful sea views and short walk to all the local ..."
Brilliant accommodation with beautiful sea views and short walk to all the local facilities would definitely recommend it and we would use it again
-
"Lovely apartment."
Very clean and spacious with high ceilings and fantastic sea views. Very useful to have two bathrooms. Brilliant location just moments walk to centre of Woolacombe and the beach. Kitchen was well equipped. Only niggle was there was nowhere to put recycling and info booklet said all types of rubbish can go in same bin. We kept our recycling and put it in public recycling bins at end of stay. The parking space is on very steep slope which may be an issue for some. From 1st Oct there were no parking restrictions or charges for parking on The Esplanade so we found it easier to park on the road. Overall a brilliant stay and would certainly like to return.
-
"Great location on the esplanade overlooking the beach."
Easy access to the beach for the family. Storage for your body boards and wet suits as well. Great viewpoint to watch the sunrise, sunsets and surfers. Ticked all the boxes for a family of 4 beach holiday.
-
