Monterey Mews

Bed downstairs not very comfy Needs a key to lock patio doors as they blew open when very windy Overall lovely place

We had a nice few days at the property.

It was bright, airy and clean. It had everything we needed to prepare meals. Location wise it’s great. A walk or short drive to the cliff top railway and model village Communication with the host was good and there’s loads of info on places to go / walks etc which helped. Minor points; sometimes the upstairs shower temperature would go cold briefly and there’s a few bumps and marks on the walls. Nothing serious though Parking isn’t a problem as the road immediately outside can be parked on and always had space. Plus you can park outside the property although that can be a bit tight when people are parked on the road opposite. We stayed during some hot weather and had concerns that it might be too hot being upstairs but there was a fan supplied plus a nice breeze from the balcony doors so this wasn’t a problem We would recommend anyone looking for a quiet base outside of the main town.

Clean, well-equipped, quiet and only ten minutes walk from shops and buses.

We didn't need to use the car at all during the week.

A lovely few days away in this well equipped mews house.

A welcoming house with bedrooms on both levels and a living room/kitchen on the 1st floor. We had small children and so mainly ate in, There were plenty of cooking utensils and pans provided. The house was comfortable and just right for 3 adults and 2 children. Friendly and helpful host provided us with local information. Would definitely stay here again…

Such a beautiful house and so close to everything you need, and in walking distance to Babbacoombe.

The house has everything you needed and plenty of room for a family of six. Quite a soft bed in the downstairs room. There was a little courtyard, but due to the time of year we visited, we didn’t use this area but in the warmer weather this area would be more suitable for adults and older children as not large enough for smaller children to run around in. Just right for us though.

We had a fantastic time the facilities were amazing everything you needed .

The accommodation was so clean and beautiful and situated in a nice quiet place were you can relax and enjoy your holiday.

We loved our stay here.

Plenty of space and really clean and tidy with plenty of amenities. Excellent location for getting to Torquay, Brixham and Paignton.Loada to do locally as well. Would highly recommend staying here, cannot fault the place at all.

Fantastic and quiet location.

Close to town centre and walkable withing 10 mins at slow pace. Clean and tidy on arrival with great little welcome hamper of essentials. Car parking was slightly difficult due to angle of drive and cars parked opposite hindering manoeuvrability. Low ceilings which we were able to get used to, but needed to duck to get into bed (very minor issue). Comfortable beds but limited storage for own food. Thank you for an enjoyable and relaxing stay

A really comfortable accomodation on two floors.

We found the experience of having most of the bedrooms and living quarters upstairs to be lovely and convenient and so light and airy. There was certainly no lack of utensils and equipment, everything you could possibly need was provided for and easily accessible in the lovely open plan living set up. Have to mention the beds as they were just so comfortable a real plus when on holiday.The accommodation is situated in a very nice area of Babbacombe. We thank David and his team for a most enjoyable stay and for the welcome pack.

Property was perfect for what we required.

Really clean, comfortable and everything we could have needed during our stay was available. Welcome pack was a lovely touch and again helped that arrival and stay run smoothly. Thank you

Loved our stay.

The owner of the property was extremely helpful and honestly couldn’t do enough for us. Recommend this property 100%

A lovely property we enjoyed our stay, just a couple of things probably need attention the outside decking has one loose board that my husband had a fall on when it tipped as he stood on it.

And one of the single quilts in the twin room needs replacement as very very thin. Otherwise we had a lovely stay.

Monterey Mews is a lovely holiday cottage.

It is spacious and light and the decor is beautiful. It was perfect for out stay.

Duvet on upstairs double room needs replacing as there was a large hole revealing all exposed filling once beds were stripped on the morning of leaving.

Bath towels were not very big. The property was very peaceful in a lovely area.

Great property

My husband and I are so pleased that we chose Monterey Mews.

It was so bright and welcoming with nice decor. It was also comfortable and spotless. The rooms were bigger than we had expected too. We also happened to meet the owner who was friendly and helpful. St Marychurch must be the nicest part of Torquay. It is like a village but has all the shops, cafes, pubs etc. you can think of in the pedestrian precinct, which is within easy walking distance. Everyone seemed happy and friendly. We didn't need to use the car as there were plenty of buses and would certainly stay there again.

I would highly recommend this holiday property to anyone looking for a clean, and comfortable and quiet place to stay.

The owner was friendly and approachable without being at all intrusive. The welcome pack was also a very nice touch after a long journey.

Our family of four had a lovely holiday at Monterey Mews.

It was a last minute booking so we didn’t have many plans but there is so much to do in this beautiful part of the world we could have done with another week! Monterey Mews is a beautifully converted building, very comfortable, well equipped, spotlessly clean with a lovely owner who provides his mobile for any queries. Situated in a perfect spot for exploring on foot, by car, boat, train or bus. We loved our week there and hope to return again.

Perfect….

. super clean, lovely host and very comfortable…… Would book again if we were to visit Torquay. A couple of extra toilet rolls would have been nice but we’re just being picky …… VERY HAPPY

I have no real gripe with the holiday house itself other than there are too many DO NOTs listed.

And tags of how much cutlery actually to put in the drawers as though we are children! Not nice. However, I really disliked the follow-up long letter from Sykes when the holiday wasn't quite over telling one what to do and not to do and how to leave the place. Overkill! I found it quite offensive and not sure I would book through Sykes again. Left a nasty taste right at the end of what had been a delightful holiday in a lovely house.

Very pleasant cottage within walking distance of St Marychurch and Babbacombe downs.

Good sized kitchen and facilities for eating in. Nice touch with biscuits and fudge to welcome us as well as tea and coffee etc. Lounge area is also spacious.

Beautiful property, fully equipped kitchen/dinner, lots of really helpful information about the area and things to do.

Fabulous apartment.

Everything you need. Warm & cosy. Good location. Loved the recommendagions folder.

The five of us had a most enjoyable, comfortable stay.

The Mews is nicely decorated and very well supplied with furniture, kitchen facilities and games, books and dvds for bad weather days.

Wonderful stay at this cottage.

Everything we might have needed. Just had to remember to duck when moving close to the angled ceilings. It was convenient for all of Torbay. Access through gates a little tricky when vehicles parked opposite gateway and chose not to drive thru in the dark. It did not spoil the holiday in anyway.

Monterey Mews exactly as stated in the listing.

It is beautiful and spotlessly clean and comfortable. Friendly and approachable owner who assured us he was available anytime if we had any concerns. Monterey Mews is a central location allowing us to visit many of the areas attractions. We had a lovely holiday. I would definitely recommend it to others. Thank you.

Nice property situated close to the town centre.

Easy parking and owner is on site and very approachable. Would happily recommend as a getaway to family and friends.

Great property all we need in 1 place, clean and tidy and good communication throughout would highly recommend

We were disappointed with the size of the rooms, they were very small, being in what really turned out to be a loft, with very low ceilings, the courtyard that we had access to was quite small, the beds were not comfy, we were grossly overcharged to stay at this holiday let, and we will not be using sykes cottages again

Good location for staying in Torquay region.

Easy walking distance to many local shops and restaurants and only a few minutes walk from seafront.

The property was very tidy and comfortable as well as being quiet.

The owners were lovey and friendly and made such a lovely effort when they found out I was getting married whilst staying there. Would definitely stay there again.

Excellent accommodation in a fantastic location, close to All routes to all the lovely places Devon has to offer, the property was beautiful, clean with everything required for a beautiful stay with the family.

Brilliant accommodation and lovely owners

A lovely presented property in a great location, spotlessly clean and the welcome packs human and dogs was a lovely surprise Would recommend to anyone

A lovely clean, warm, comfortable apartment that made our holiday very enjoyable and in a great location for exploring the coastline and surrounding areas.

The hosts were very helpful and the little 'welcome' bags were a wonderful touch !

The cottage itself was great, cozy, clean and met our needs perfectly.

.. However, though the cottage itself is dog friendly, due to the tiny court yard and no nearby grassed/dog walking areas etc. you have to walk quite a distance to find a suitable dog walking/toilet area or you have to actually take your dog out in the car to access dog friendly areas. Not too much of a problem for us, but could be an issue with anyone who may have difficulty walking longer distances and need to toilet their dog regularly or as sometimes occurs ‘urgently’.

Fab cottage, everything we needed to enjoy our stay, will definitely return, thank you

This property is well apportioned and equipped and was very well located for the beach and shops at Babbacombe, just outside Torquay.

The standard of accommodation was excellent as was the cleanliness and civid preparedness. The property benefits from off road parking which is really needed for the location. . Highly recommended for a mid week break or longer.
