This time we were rather disappointed due to the following:- When we arrived at the apartment on Tuesday, it was VERY cold - the heating was not on. We immediately visited the agent in Dartmouth and were advised that the owner has remote control of the heating. They phoned the owner and he advised that he had released control and we should now be able to increase the heat. It would not allow us to do this, and as a result we had to sit with our coats on, and blankets around us, all evening. That evening we rang the emergency number for Sykes cottages, three times but no-one returned our call. As my sister has arthritis I do not feel this was acceptable. The next day, after a very cold night, a gentleman from Coastal Cottages attended and managed to set the heating. By the third day the heating was working correctly, however we were all very disappointed with the lack of heating and feel it spoiled our few days away to celebrate my sisters 70th birthday. I do feel that we should receive some recompense for our lack of heating.

Unfortunately the lift had broken down and other owners in the block had given their guests 6 weeks notice. As the owners were informed 8+ weeks prior to our arrival. We were informed 2 weeks prior & then Sykes customer service took another week to reply to my questions (which I had to chase for a reply) & sent the reply from a no reply email address - not very helpful Sykes!!! That left us a week before we were due to stay & no chance of finding alternative accommodation for 6 of us. Especially with a provision of a lift. The owner would not offer any compensation for this inconvenience. The dual aspect apartment had beautiful views of the river Dart & that is a feature we all enjoyed. At the time of staying the flat front door was not compliant with Fire Safety regulations as the self closers had been disconnected. This was reported to Coast and Country Cottages, Sykes and the fire safety department at Devon & Somerset fire and rescue service.
