"Wow,this is the best holiday let we have stayed in."
Everything you need for a perfect,relaxing holiday .very comfortable warm and welcoming,a lovely garden to sit and relax with a coffee or glass of wine.The hosts are a lovely couple ,there if you need anything.The area is very peaceful,it is only 5 min from town in a car or approx 30 min walk which we have done, the only negative was we had to go home at the end of the week.So we have booked another 2 weeks for next year. Thank you so much Hedley and Megan for a wonderful holiday

Everything we needed for a great stay provided by excellent hosts. Will return there.

"We found Peonies to be an exceptionally clean, comfortable and well equipped place to stay."
Being a tall person, the very large comfortable bed was a bonus and we slept well. The owners were friendly and welcoming and were immediately to hand if required, but did not intrude on our stay. We were completely satisfied with Peonies - thank you.

"Such a lovely place with access to the owners beautiful garden."
Not far from the town and seafront, what more could you ask for.
-
"Very nice compact cottage, nice and clean, 5 star rating all round, excellent and very good communication between us and the owner."
The garden is very well kept and nice to sit out and watch the wildlife come and go. The property is well positioned to use as a base to tour around Exmouth and beyond.

"Peonies was very clean, well maintained and generally comfortable - though the sitting room furniture was not particularly comfortable and seemed rather more akin to conservatory furniture - but we enjoyed our stay and the owners were nice and welcoming and helpful."
All in all an enjoyable holiday and renting Peonies was a central part of that.

"This was our first experience of using Sykes cottages."
We have never rented a cottage before. We were so pleased that it matched the picture and the description. It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The people who own it live next door, and they were so welcoming. Exmouth had so much to offer and the surrounding area was really beautiful to explore. I would definitely book another cottage with Sykes.

"The accommodation was very secluded and peaceful in spite of it being attached to the owner's house."
Although on a main road, it's location we rarely heard any traffic. The accommodation was comfortable and we had everything we needed. We were met on our first day by the owner who gave us an explanation regarding the property and local advice for the area. We enjoyed our holiday in spite of some mixed weather.

"A lovely comfortable property, everything was spotlessly clean."

"Lovely accommodation, very comfortable bed, best sleep for a long time!"
Beautiful garden to enjoy in the sun.

"We had a fantastic time at Peonies with great weather, which always helps."
We had read reports about not being able to get at the cutlery draw due to the draw hitting the oven, but it is so easily overcome by just opening the oven door, no hardship in that respect. The owners greeted us upon arrival and made us feel very welcome and had a chat on the day of departure. There was a lovely outside area for sitting in the garden to catch the last moments of the sun before it set. The bed was the most comfortable one we had ever had and allowed a good nights sleep. The complimentary bottle of wine was much appreciated. We would hope that we would be able to go there again in the near future.

"Re facilities - Cutlery drawers are inaccessible due to position of oven and ..."
Re facilities - Cutlery drawers are inaccessible due to position of oven and needs immediate attention (previously referred to by others in visitors' book) Shower cubical doors need repair to loose sealing strip Sykes post stay advice was not well received by us or our family
Thank you for completing your feedback. We have discussed the points raised with the owner who confirms the shower seal has now been fixed, in relation to the cutlery drawer the owner explained prior to your arrival that the cutlery drawer had to be opened in a certain way and was saddened to read your comments suggesting immediate attention was needed to rectify this. Due to the compact design of the kitchen the cutlery drawer needs to be opened in a particular way. Property Owner

"Probably the best outside dedicated guest garden space we've ever seen, pity that the weather didn't allow use to use it."
The owners were friendly and helpful and though not very large the kitchen was well-equipped. Easy parking and although attached to the owner's house felt very private.

"Peonies is a lovely place to stay."
Very clean and really well equipped. Great choice
-
"It was a lovely house, the owners were so, extremely friendly and welcoming (there was a bunch of flowers and bottle of wine left by the last guests left on the driveway, which indicates that they also had a lovely stay too)."
The house is in a great location, just a short 3-4 min drive to the main town with shops and lovely restaurants around and to walk it would have taken around 30mins. Gorgeous garden too which is very clearly well taken care of. I would definitely recommend it for any age visitor.

"The annexe is exactly as shown in the photos."
Although very small it is comfortable and well equipped. A very good sized front facing double bedroom with a luxurious comfortable bed. Bathroom with walk in shower plus a galley style kitchen. Outside a lovely garden , enclosed and very peaceful and quiet. The owners Hedley and Meghan are on hand if you require them , helpful but not intrusive. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Peonies and would highly recommend this cottage for a quiet relaxing holiday.

"Hosts very accommodating ."

"I think that what most impressed me was the thoughtful way they had equipped the cottage."
There were shelves where you needed them, lamps placed just right, lots of hooks, a chair in the porch for changing your shoes - all those little things that actually make your holiday more enjoyable. Hedley and Megan were friendly and helpful but unobtrusive so we were able to relax in our adjacent garden area and just feel comfortable. We were unsure about the location but the walk into town only took 25-30 minutes, or a ten minute walk to a bus stop, with buses every 15 minutes during the day. And the walk along the Exe estuary was excellent - don't miss it!
