What our customers say about their holidays

• Anne - Verified booking

  We loved Tarifa and had booked for Easter 2025.

  However, we were this year and would be next year part of a larger group who planned to stay at another property to us. However, through circumstances beyond all of our control we have had to postpone our booking with Sykes to another time and find we have had to forfeit our deposit. We often choose Sykes over other Holiday Property Agents and would ask if as a good will gesture you would return some or all of our deposit. We have in the past been with Country Cottages.com and lots of other Company's and they don't have this policy. Walt and Anne Winkworth. Just to add to our comments on Tarifa - it was lovely and quiet and had a lovely view of ths sea. The sun room was extremely useful in drying wet clothes. We will certainly go again when our circumstances make it possible. 2025 booking was 53T23-24-EN

  Your listing for the property shows pub in less than 1 mile.

  This would only be true if you include the pub on Burgh Island, or the bar at the next bay which would require you to walk the coastal path to get to it. If you are going to keep this in you need to be more detailed. The listing mentions the property having a ground floor bedroom, which gives the impression that it is accessible for someone with mobility issues, but as the property is upside down, i.e. bedrooms on ground floor and living space on the first floor with the front door, it still requires you to use the stairs. You describe the sitting room as spacious, this is not accurate (spacious would be large with a lot of space).

  Well done on kitting out your house and kitchen so well.

  Everything we needed was provided. We could not fault it. We had our grandkids who loved the village. The kids never noticed the lounge and it remained an adults only area. Everyday after nap time we headed off to the playground and streams. What a perfect village. The water in the streams ( shallow bits only) was perfect for a toddler. He loved getting soaked! The village was stunning. We spent as much time as we could on local beaches mostly in wet weather clothing. Your neighbour with the van was very helpful with ideas, and was very friendly. A big thank you to the cleaner as she left the house spotless. Thank you.

  Brilliant week in a lovely holiday home.

  Stayed in Tarifa because our usual Bigbury holiday home was fully booked, but we really liked it. Very clean and comfortable, with fabulous views. Loved the balcony and sun room. Only quibble was the check in/out still being at 5pm arrival (although this was adjusted to 4pm the week before) and 9am departure. Also the Wi-Fi was quite poor, not necessarily a holiday essential but we couldn’t even complete Wordle at the same time! (Appreciate Bigbury-On-Sea is not a signal hotspot but much better in the 2 neighbouring flats where our family members were staying).

  We had an absolutely lovely time at Tarifa 6.

  The views of Bigbury beach were just beautiful. Everything (particularly kitchen) was very well equipped and was a high standard and good quality too. Beds were comfy with really nice sheets. The communal garden and other areas were kept very tidy and nice. Communication prior to arrival with the property managers was excellent. The only thing that could improve the property would be the addition of a bath (and slightly faster wifi)….. but that is being very picky! We would certainly book again!
