Penryn

Good location, within walking distance of shops and harbour.

Owner responded quickly to enquiries and was very helpful. Parking could be a bit tricky but always found somewhere nearby to park.

The holiday cottage is great.

It’s clean in a good location in beautiful North Devon and Brendan is a delight. Fair price for what you get.

Penryn is a lovely comfortable apartment well equipped and a great location for Ilfracombe.

We enjoyed a lovely relaxing two weeks stay here and would like to return next year if it’s available. Communication with the owner and his son was easy and they made every effort to ensure our stay was comfortable, which was most appreciated as the weather was inclement. They kindly put on the heating to allow us to dry wet clothing. The house is beautifully decorated with some attractive plants and wooden ornaments. Many thanks for enabling us to book this property. Highly recommended.

The apartment was lovely had everything you could need.

Clean and welcoming. The beds were really comfortable. Plenty of room, bright and airy. Brendan the owner was lovely and welcoming.

Very comfortable, owner very welcoming.

Many properties now include a welcome tray, tea, coffee, milk etc. Just a thought not a criticism.

We had a very nice stay at Penryn, an ideal base for us.

Very clean and the owners were very nice without being intrusive. Parking in the street was a problem at times but no big deal, overall a great stay.

The accommodation was lovely and comfortable and everything we needed for a wonderful holiday even the weather was kind to us .

We had a great stay.

The property was clean and I loved the original features of the property. The owner was friendly, helpful and at hand should we need him.

The owner was very friendly and available for any requests or questions.

The property was practical and was very clean.. It had everything we needed for cooking and eating. The location is central and close to the the local restaurants and harbour.

A very comfortable and well equipped apartment in a central position for the town, the supermarket, and all the interesting sites in Ilfracombe.

No private parking but we didn't ever have a problem parking either outside the house or very nearby. I highly recommend this lovely holiday home.

The accommodation was spacious, occupying the top two floors of a Victorian terrace close to the coast.

The kitchen with large dining table seemed to have been recently fitted out and met all our needs. The communication with the owner and introductory tour of the property was excellent and the owner was very helpful. The entrance is shared with the owner who lives on the ground and lower ground floors, but the apartment has a lockable front door within the building. Parking can be difficult as the road is very central without any parking restrictions. However, we always found parking either in the road where the property is situated or in nearby roads suggested by the owner. We visited outside of school holidays in the 3rd week of September.

Really nice house in a great location.

Over 2 floors and was perfect for our family. Exactly as described and very clean. Just over from the Tunnel beaches and a nice 10 min walk to the harbour. The owner was very helpful giving recommendations etc

Brendan is a fabulous host, nothing was too much trouble for him.

We had a brilliant week in Devon.

Very friendly and helpful landlord, thank you Mr Bergin

We loved staying at penryn, it's a lovely comfy apartment and was perfect for us.

Brendan the owner was so lovely and helpful and he was also really lovely with the kids. We will definitely be booking again!

The entrance isn't fantastic but ignore that and the flat is fine.

Well equipped, clean and spacious. Needs a light as soon as you go in the main house front door, the switch is a fair way in or a sensor light. Position is good, top of the road you are on the high street or walk along the front to the harbour. A Lidls across the road is convenient. Main issue is the difficulty with on street parking and the turning area at the top of the road. As there is no charge on the road it gets very busy. Owner keeps a space for day of arrival which is helpful but struggled to park some evenings. Not a lot that can be done about this though. An enjoyable stay and good flat

We had a great weeks holiday.

Our accommodation was really comfortable and cosy and spacious. Central to everything. Brendan was a perfect host to us nothing was too much trouble I would certainly recommend it.

Great location, roomy accommodation and very kind and helpful host.

I loved the space and comfort of accommodation

The holiday accommodation was spacious and clean.

The kitchen was well equipped with ample crockery etc. It was lovely to be able to eat in the kitchen together and then relax in the lounge; we really appreciated having the living space separate to the kitchen. Having two bathrooms was also a great plus. The owner of the property was brilliant, phoning us beforehand to touch base about our arrival, calling the day before to check our final plans, happily moving his car so we could unload, chatting when we bumped into him on occasion. Overall, a great experience.

Excellent holiday let - clean, good facilities and fantastic host.

The flat is really close to the tunnels beach and to town. Looking at other feedback we thought parking would be a nightmare but the host kindly moved his car so we could park when we got there, and we managed to get a space on the few occasions we took the car out. Would highly recommend Penryn for anyone looking for a holiday in Ilfracombe.

Lovely holiday away for the family.

The experience booking through Sykes Cottages was excellent with precise and accurate information of the place we stayed and also regular contact to keep me up to date on the booking. We’ll be using Sykes Cottages to book future holidays and will recommend to friends and family.

The owner Brendan was very pleasant.

House is in a good location for Ilfracombe, however parking for the property is not easy, first come first served, but the street is often full and you may have to park in a different street. The apartment was very clean and had all that you needed if you wanted to eat in.

Great place kids loved it, very friendly and helpful owners only issue we had was with parking but alternative on street parking was available a few streets away.

A really lovely apartment over two floor with plenty of space.

Clean and easy to walk into town. On street parking is not always easy but owner very accommodating and will help out with this. We enjoyed our short stay at Penryn.

The owners hospitality and helpfulness most impressed The property had everything you need to make a great holiday.

Well kept

Penryn is a gorgeous apartment split over the upper two levels of a townhouse.

The owner lives underneath with the accommodation having its own entrance on the first floor. The owner is non-intrusive but also helpful and friendly. The 3 bedrooms, living area, kitchen and 2 bathrooms provided plenty of space for our family of 5. WiFi for the kids too! The apartment was exceptionally clean. The kitchen was very well equipped, even including condiments, cleaning materials etc. A washing machine was also handy for a particularly muddy day at an adventure park. We only had to buy food - Lidl is just down the road. Boardgames and plenty of linen was also much appreciated. The location of the apartment is excellent, 5 mins walk from tunnels beaches & 10/15 mins from the beautiful harbour. The Indian restaurant at the end of the road was also very nice. All in all a lovely apartment!

Perfect location - very close to Tunnels beaches, the main high street and Lidl.

The owner lives below and is very welcoming. Nice big rooms and a well stocked kitchen.

The cottage/appartment was in an excellent location.

The owner was very welcoming and the appartment was very homely and exceedling well equiped.

Wonderful apartment comfurtuble and relaxing.

Very clean and a good location for the Harbour only issue we had is trouble with parking on the street.

The accommodation was very comfortable and spacious.

The rooms were all tastefully furnished and well equipped and being in a very quiet area added to our enjoyment of our holiday.
