“High Quality Apartment”

We stayed here for our 3rd visit to Westward Ho! Previously staying in a Braddicks Platinum Caravan. ...

We stayed here for our 3rd visit to Westward Ho! Previously staying in a Braddicks Platinum Caravan. It blew Braddicks out the water and we absolutely loved the apartment. Spacious, high quality and the view was to die for. With just a few tweaks the apartment could be even more comfortable. Pros; - space - view - parking - quality - kitchen - spinning cuddle chair! - location Cons; - no dressing table in master bedroom (no where to sit and dry hair or put makeup on or anywhere to put things like that with easy access). - no wardrobe in second bedroom which was ok as our little girls were in there but a problem if we had gone with another couple. - no instruction about what to do with rubbish. We would have liked to recycle but non of the food/plastic/cardboard bins were there and we had no idea where to put anything. - whilst cleanliness on the whole was very good, the master bathroom had someone else’s dark hairs all inside the cupboard under the basin and under the radiator which wasn’t pleasant. - the patio furniture was so uncomfortable so we couldn’t sit on the balcony for long, it also wasn’t wipeable when it got wet as the wood stayed wet. Something non absorbant might have been better so we could enjoy the outside space. - even when the master shower was on the coolest temp, it was too hot to use so we had to use the other shower. - the tv wasn’t a smart tv which in a 5* apartment would have been nice. - the bathroom bins didn’t have any bags in them. - 40 steps to get to the front door but the Pro is that the view is amazing so for us it was worth it. Anyone with limited mobility would really struggle, and a buggy would be very hard. All that said, we would definitely stay there again, we just wanted to feedback our experience.

“The property was very well presented, clean and spacious and a nice welcome pack waiting for us, but the 41 steps up to the front door where OK for a physically fit person but would be no good for a wheelchair or persons on walking sticks.”

I do have a hidden disability and sometimes found them challenging. Dissapointed no wardrobes in second bedroom. Apart from the bare minimum of cutlery, plates, and pans everything else was fine. The revolving chair in lounge took me back to my childhood, it reminded me of the waltzers on the funfair. The view across the whole area from the lounge and balcony was absolutely stunning. Very friendly neighbours and special praise to coco the lovely rescued greyhound / whippet who was very friendly in apt. 3. And to the 2 liitle uns on the opposite balcony to the side of us. All in all a very nice holiday from start to finish.. Did report the wonky curtain rail in the smaller bedroom.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback and we are really pleased you enjoyed your stay at Atlantic View. It is noted in the property listing that this property "may not be suitable for those with any mobility issues due to access". This would have appeared also in red text when you made the booking. We would always hope that any guest with such concerns would raise this with our Reservations team who would have been happy to investigate before the booking was made. Due to Covid-19 cutlery and crockery has been reduced at properties in order to facilitate more efficient cleaning. Under normal circumstances of course, the kitchen would be stocked with extra crockery and cutlery. Owner relations
“Wonderful apartment, really clean and incredible views”

- Miss Stokes, July 2020
“We enjoyed our stay and the flat suited us well.”

The flat itself is almost brand new, nicely furnished, comfortable and has been provided with a good range of facilities and cookware etc. The views from the flat our across the town and sea are extensive, shame it was really the wrong time of year for us to make use of the balcony. The only niggle for us really was the lack of on-site parking during our stay - it was a bit of a trek to the flat plus the flights of stairs to reach the front door comprise of 40 steps. That was fine for us apart from when we first arrived and had to do numerous journeys to unload which was a bit of an unexpected chore.

- Mr Parsons, October 2019
“Major building works were not listed at the time of booking, it was very muddy and difficult to access the property for the entire length of our stay.”

As such the building works had blocked off the access to the off road parking advertised which was inconvenient and meant we had to carry our bags and access our cars across the main busy road and walk up a steep muddy and at times hazardous track.

- Ms Hellyer, September 2019

Thank you very much for sending in your feedback. The owner of Atlantic View had made us aware of the building work being carried out on site. However, due to an internal error, the information regarding the building work was not passed on to you, for which the company take full responsibility. We hope our actions since have helped to alleviate the situation and despite the disruption, you were able to enjoy your stay. Owner relations
“The view is exceptional from the apartment.”

The only downside is the alarm as this lights up the room upon movement this disturbed our sleep especially my young baby, if the alarm is not active could this be turned off?

“We booked the apartment at the last minute,luckily for us there was only one week left,due to a cancellation, and what a fantastic place it turned out to be!”

!!! The apartment was lovely and fitted out to a very high standard,the description was very accurate. It had everything we needed and the views were amazing. Our party consisted of myself,my partner and my 14 year old twin daughters and it met all our needs,my daughters had to share a room but that didn’t bother them, and it was lovely to relax there after a day out somewhere. There were a few stairs to climb to get to the property but hopefully it helped offset the amount of ice cream we had on a daily basis!!!!! It was perfectly positioned for us to explore Westward Ho! and served as a great place to venture further afield, we’d never been to this area before and discovered so many places to visit. A previous comment from another visitor about a dog barking and being aggressive is,in my opinion,totally unfounded. We met the dog,who only barked once!!!!,came and said hello and was fine with all of us. The dogs owner was very friendly and a wealth of knowledge about where to visit and we experienced no problems at all,maybe people should respect the fact that some people actually live there. All in all we had a great holiday and couldn’t fault the accommodation at all. We’ll definitely return again!!! Thank you.

“As expected from Sykes, a great property.”

Very comfortable and furnished to a high standard.

- Mrs Harcourt, August 2019
“Vicious sounding dog in the apartment downstairs.”

Allowed out to bark under our window at 7am on a Sunday. Would bark and growl as we tried to walk across the communal area. Asked the owner to hold her dog as we passed, but she was very unwilling and hostile; said '"dogs bark" and "the dog lives here". The dog was left outside unsupervised and did not respond to any of her commands. I would strongly recommend against anyone with small children renting this property, or even anyone who's wary of dogs. Particularly as it appeared to be a large greyhound type that are notorious for chasing small prey (little kids). Access by car is sketchy as it's up a patchy gravel drive. There aren't really two parking spaces available as the area is very tight, turning round a large car is a challenge. Strange things were missing like toilet roll holders, towel rails in the toilet, blinds on the bathroom window etc.

- Mr Corvesor, July 2019

We are sorry to hear that our apartment did not meet your expectations. We are however somewhat confused by some of your comments. Both bathrooms have toilet roll holders and towel rails, the main bathroom has a heated one. The main bathroom is on the 3rd floor and not overlooked and also the glass is frosted so we felt there was no need for a blind. The parking area is sufficient for two cars per apartment and there is plenty of room to be able to turn a vehicle. We have a long car ourselves and have not experienced any issues. I am very sorry to hear about your experiences with the Greyhound. We have stayed there many times ourselves and have not experienced any problems. He has in fact been very friendly towards us, is extremely placid and we have yet to hear him bark. We are of course grateful for your feedback and will make a note of the concerns that you have mentioned. Owner relations
“The appartment was ever thing we had hoped for, though the stairs giving access would be a problem for persons with any infirmity.”

It was however, a buitiful appartment and very comfortable. We would definitely go there again and Sykes cottages we completely efficient and professional.

- Mr Bailey, July 2019
“The apartment was fantastic with great view over the sea .”

Facility’s in the apartment were first class. Would highly recommend it.

- Mr Purse, June 2019
“We loved it.”

It was relaxing and the view was amazing. It was just a short walk into town too. There are many steps up to this apartment on the second floor, so it wouldn't suit everyone. The bed was very comfortable and all the furnishings were of good quality.
