• "We always use Flat 4 for our holiday."

  It’s our chill out time so being able to relax in the comfy recliners whilst looking at the sea is fabulous. The beds are comfy and the flat is warm and well equipped. The walk into Weymouth town is on the flat and is pleasant. I love it here and will be back time and time again!!!

• "The property was very clean with good quality furniture."

  The view from the lounge, kitchen and main bedroom is amazing. As we were 2 couples the second bedroom which overlooked the rear of the property was really small compared to the massive main bedroom with only a small rail to hang clothes compared to a double built in wardrobe. I had asked Sykes about the stairs as one previous reviewer had said they were spiral, I was told they aren't. They were a real struggle for most of us as they turn in a spiral but with proper stairs. Once you are up it's fine but arriving and leaving with suitcases, only the fittest could manage it. Apart from that, the apartment is really lovely and would recommend.

• "Great facilities and view was amazing, However if there was any criticism it would be the inventory that is wrong regarding kitchenware."

  The intercom to let people in didn’t open the front door. A ceiling fan would be useful as the temperature in the evening is very warm. An ice cube tray would be more useful than a gravy boat. These are just minor things as the holiday was great.

  2nd bedroom en-suite shower not draining properly. No mixer tap for hot and cold water. Main family bathroom splash prevention glass partition no wide enough having to stand at the end of the bath to avoid water splash. Limited poor qulaity toilet paper. Electric kettle light indicator when on is not working. Pity unable to sit out in the lovely garden on the ground floor and the shared courtyard is bare surrounded by 4 walls with a bench which could be improved with some pots/flowers to make it a more conducive enviroment etc.

• "The appartment was really nice."

  But we were never told that me and my wife would have to go up four flights of stairs to get to flat four in which we were staying. My wife is seventy one and I am sixty eight. We had to carry our suitcases up the stairs. every time we ventured out my wife who has just had a partial knee replacement really struggled up the stairs and it got to the stage where she did not want to go out because the strain of going back to the room at the top of the stairs we should have been informed .

  ) this is a perfectly situated property with amazing views and if the sea is your thing you couldn't get any closer. Spacious enough for the 3 of us, nice and comfy furniture. Fridge not quite as cold as we'd like but we managed fine. Equipped with everything you need for a fabulous stay. Hope to be back before long.

• "23 07 22. Stayed in this apartment a few times pre pandemic and it has a lovely location and view we were quite disappointed with a few things though."

  Stairs are manageable to us but 31 steps and heat rising up the stairwell with no ventilation is not good for anyone. Kitchen was grubby we needed to give the worktops and fridge a good clean. Fridge has never been that good but was worse than ever with water running down the inside so we weren’t comfortable storing food in it, it barely cooled down drinks and this cost us extra to eat out and have takeaways. The repairs to the shelves make the fridge look unclean. Bed in main bedroom really uncomfortable and toilet in bathroom sometimes not flushing properly. It’s well enough equipped but not worth the charge when you can’t use the facilities - mainly fridge, bed, toilet need sorting so we’re trying another property for next year.

• "We had a wonderful week in the apartment and we couldn’t believe how close we were to the beach and what fantastic views."

  Lovely walks along the seafront to Weymouth and the harbour. It might be useful to others to point out that the parking on the drive from the main road can be awkward. We used the garage once but found it narrow for our Clio so doubt whether a bigger car could get in. As mentioned in other peoples feedback the double bed mattress is uncomfortable and needs to be replaced with a better quality one. Apart from that we had a great time and would recommend.

  Had to nip out lol. The fridge again wasn’t at the right temperature which I have addressed twice before. Mattress might need replacing but wasn’t an issues for me I slept very well. I have booked again so all is good. The apartment is stunning n the views. Falling asleep n waking up listening to the waves. This time there was a tray of tea, coffee biscuits etc but for me personally I would of preferred toilet roll but everyone is different and you can’t please everyone. Thank you again for an amazing time.

  We’ve worked out we’ve been every year(sometimes twice a year!) since 2013. What a little find! I never really want to share with others in fear of losing out because they book it before me. Haha! I’d cry!!! We’ve even made good friends with the others that stay in number 3 at the same time. We love Weymouth and surrounding areas. This flat is a perfect home from home! A time to really relax and enjoy the sea views. Thank you.

• "The apartment location was fantastic."

  Sykes cottages were very quick with a response for our late booking (day before we went!) and the service and communication from Sykes was brilliant. The apartment was just outside the town so it was a bit of a walk but for us this was ok. It was flat and even. The area (as we were just outside town) was very peaceful with just the gentle waves for company. There was quite a climb of stairs for the top floor apartment which was a struggle with all our bags, but we had a few breaks as we climbed ! The apartment had everything that you needed, however, you will need to take additional toilet rolls as there is only one in each toilet so if more than 2of you, you may get through them very quickly!!!! I did miss the personal touch of the apartment, (welcome package , tissues,shampoo, shower gel) but this is just my opinion. The apartment was clean and tidy and would recommend to anyone that enjoys walking or even just stopping in as we could have watched the sea all day every day from the apartment. We were very lucky that the weather was fantastic for September. So we did loads of walking and went on the rib boat to durdle dor (again, would highly recommend) Overall a very enjoyable stay and would recommend

  The staff at Sykes were really helpful in finding us a last minute place and the booking process was fairly simple, apart from an issue with payment as we were in Guernsey at time of booking! The accommodation was excellently placed, away from the town but within walking distance. Wonderful views, clean and comfortable.

  We ended up leaving the pub we had chosen to eat in to rush over to the office so that we could ensure we were able to get back into the property and then relax. Not the sort of service we used to get when it was actually 'Dream Cottages' that ran the office.

• "The double bed mattress needs replacing urgently as the springs are protruding so we didn't have one good night's sleep in the 7 nights."

  This was a real shame as the apartment was glorious. The door to the clothes dryer was broken so, made it very difficult to use. It just needs replacing. The kettle needs descaling/cleaning as all drinks had a greasy film. When you fill the kettle with water you can see the film on top. Clean it using Oust descaler - it will fix this problem immediately! The owner will need to buy a new can opener as the one supplied disintegrated in my hand as I used it. I left it with all of the pieces on the side in the kitchen so it can be seen. The cooking tongs need replacing as they are plastic and old and as a result bits of plastic was coming off when used. Just for your info, some of the light bulbs need replacing - one in the lounge to the freestanding lamp and kitchen under-lighting. The owner won't know unless someone mentions it. In the wooden cupboard in the main bathroom on the first shelf, there is an old toilet brush stuffed at the back - I suggest this is moved as it doesn't look very nice. Finally, the intercom system didn't allow you to buzz people up and I don't know whether this function has been disabled deliberately or whether there is a fault which is why I mention it. If all of the above were fixed it would have been a faultless review.

• "The apartment was in an ideal position, overlooking the beach."

  Everything was very neat and tidy and fully equipped. If I have to comment on a negative, the bed could do with being more comfortable. Plenty of places to eat in and around Weymouth. Would recommend the Sunday lunch at Weymouth Pavilion, excellent value. The Oasis Café in Overcombe is well worth a visit, very popular. All in all, despite the weather at times, we had a brilliant stay and would book again.

• "This is the 4th time we have booked this apartment which speaks for itself!"

  A wonderful apartment, consistently clean on all 4 of our arrivals! Really like the key safe which makes arrival really easy. The views are tremendous - worth the climb of the 31 stairs to get to the apartment. The mattresses are probably ready to be replaced as they are very, very soft and may be a problem for anyone with back issues. Potential customers need to be aware there are no 'black out curtains' just blinds so if you need really dark space to sleep that may cause you a problem although it wasn't an issue for us and we really enjoyed having the windows open through the night to hear the sound of the sea. Love the fact there is just a pathway in front of the property not a road as it is not noisy. Also despite being a road near to the back of the property you don't really pick that noise up in the apartment. We have stayed here in October and July, August and this really is the perfect all year round property and we hope to be back for visit number 5 at some point!
