75. Empty washing up liquid No soap for handwashing, even in the toilet/bathroom No black bin liners One opened toilet roll provided for our weeks stay Front door handle hanging off Crumbling front door mat trip hazard Bedside cabinet in spare room front edging missing in places bathroom cabinet/mirror paint missing in places I contacted Sykes to complain about the condition of this property, who in turn contacted the owner regarding my request for compensation for this awful holiday The owner refused, but Sykes, as a gesture of good will refunded me £150. In my opinion the pictures you see on the internet do not reflect the true condition of this property. We have been booking with Sykes for years but this is by far the worst place we have stayed in, and we will definitely not be returning..

The bed was comfortable, as were the sofas, and the kitchen was basic, but adequate. This would have been a 4/5 star review apart from some dirty bowls put back in the rack, and an inadequate supply of glasses. This may sound trivial, but 2 matching wine glasses would be the least I would expect in a holiday property.

The cottage was very cool even on the really hot days and had a lovely grass area for the dog just outside. It was extremely quiet as its just outside the town of Pembroke there is no passing traffic. The owners were extremely good about our dog who can be a bit noisy in new places. It's only 10 min drive from an all year round dog friendly beach and is ideal position for exploring out and about. A 5 .in drive to nearest petrol station that sells every. I woukd definitely recommend Sunday Lunch at the Lamphey Hall Hotel, incredibly friendly and the food was fantastic. We would definitely stay there again when we are in the area visiting.
