    “Upon arrival we loved the setting and the cottage.”

    Initially it looked very clean. After unpacking, we noticed quite a lot of dog hair on the sofa cushions and rug. We gave it a hoover and shook the cushions off outside. When we went to bed we noticed that there was even more dog hair and stains on the bedding. On one of the pillow cases there was a brown blood stain. The bedding had obviously been washed but the stains and fur remained. We appreciate that this is a dog friendly cottage (we have one at home) but we don't want to share soft ...

    Initially it looked very clean. After unpacking, we noticed quite a lot of dog hair on the sofa cushions and rug. We gave it a hoover and shook the cushions off outside. When we went to bed we noticed that there was even more dog hair and stains on the bedding. On one of the pillow cases there was a brown blood stain. The bedding had obviously been washed but the stains and fur remained. We appreciate that this is a dog friendly cottage (we have one at home) but we don't want to share soft furnishings with somebody elses. All dog hair should have been removed and stained bedding isn't acceptable. We have sent photos to Sykes showing the numerous stains and hair. We took the bedding off and shook that off outside as best as we could. We also swapped pillows over. There was also a random slipper under the bed. The local property office offered to send cleaners in (after we'd already slept in the beds) but we weren't happy having them in, as our belongings were all unpacked. They also couldn't give us a time so we declined the offer. We'd sorted it as best as we could. We were also left only three bath towels to share between the four of us. Other than those issues, the cottage is lovely, well furnished and well stocked. There is mould around the bottom of the walls in the main bedroom which might bother some. Clothing storage is also needed in the twin room as, three small bedside table drawers between two people isn't enough.

About the location

NEW QUAY

Lampeter 12 miles; Cardigan 20 miles; Aberystwyth 24 miles.

This delightful seaside town is one of the most popular holiday resorts all year round, and it is easy to see why when you stroll along the sea edge and enjoy the beautiful views. The lovely range of gift shops, tea rooms, restaurants and pubs offer all you need, while boat trips are a wonderful opportunity to spot the playful dolphins, seals and other rare animals and birds that inhabit the bay's sheltering waters. For the hands-on members of your party why not try sailing, kayaking, windsurfing, and power boating with expert tuition available? The famous poet, Dylan Thomas, penned many works with inspiration in New Quay including "Quite Early One Morning" and you can follow the Dylan Thomas trail around the town. Just 7 miles away is Aberaeron, a lively Georgian harbour town with multi-coloured cottages and a good selection of restaurants and inns. This wonderful area of Wales not only has stunning sandy beaches, but also beautiful countryside walks and the outstanding Devil's Bridge is world-renowned for the three bridges, the narrow gauge steam railway and the cascading waterfalls. A perfect base for wonderful holidays, all year round.
