Pencreek

We were very happy to stay at Pencreek again, very comfortable family home as the weather was poor it’s good to know you can go back to a very nice property, it’s in a great position in Rock very convenient for most things.

Lovely bungalow in a well situated position.

This is our second visit to Pencreek and we were not disappointed.

It is like home from home, very comfortable beds and furnishings not so smart that you feel nervous about using! The kitchen is very well equipped. An added bonus is the utility with shower and loo. The garden was large enough for cricket and football. We hope to come back!

A little outdated but very comfortable.

In a jolly good spot for Rock beach and ferry. Nice enclosed gardens for children.

We had a great stay, thank you.

The only issue was that we had no hot water on the morning we were leaving

This house was the perfect location for a family holiday, 10 minute walk to the beach, nice local stores, bakery, fish & chips etc very close, Beautifully kept house and garden.

Would definitely recommend and am already looking to rebook for next year.

Returning to Pencreek is always as expected - it is nice simply because of it's honest simplicity for holidaying, no pretentions, providing everything for everyone of all our family ages to relax and go about their excursions and adventures .

.. found it unnecessary to be required to fill in ratings: my comments are sufficient

returning to pencreek, yet again again, always so welcoming.

simple simplicity to be homely, cosy, and comfortable for more than holiday needs. despite 25yrs of familiarity in rock (in various lets) this has been the best. being in the middle of rock makes for ease of access, shops for short term 'supplies', and to be out and about with plenty of old and new activities to be enjoyed in all cornish weathers! here's to the next time ...

Lovely cottage in great location, very reasonable price for this area, we were very comfortable

Generally excellent.

Nice to have a well eqipped kitchen. Wet room and bathroom locks do not work and the main bathroom the plug does not work. The media entertainment system needs updating. The garden was superb and again well equipped. We all had a fabulous week Thank You

Lovely property only downside is the sofas are awful to sit on the grass was to Long and the utility shower didn’t work but generally really nice

We had a lovely stay in Pencreek.

It had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable and the addition of extra duvets and blankets was great. The garden was private and sunny. Maintenance points: The toilet seat in the bathroom was loose. The tiles at the base of the handbasin and toilet in the wetroom were ingrained with dirt. We managed to remove some with a mop but they really need a good scrub! Suggestions :a corner shelf in the shower area of the wetroom would be useful for shampoo etc. There is really only comfortable seating for 3 in the living room. The largest sofa needs replacing as it is very uncomfortable. As there were only 4 of us we managed by putting seat cushions from the windowsill on it. The Henry style hoover was very hard work for us oldies to use! Overall it is a really nice home, well positioned and well equipped. We would definitely come back. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Sykes did not reply to my last email question.

Sykes did not inform me of work being carried out next door before I booked. Work was even done on the Sunday morning. Woken up at 1.00am by extremely loud music from neighbour. There were only three staying, so enough room. This place is not big enough for a party of eight - seating and cooking etc. Would not book through Sykes again.

I think the property could do with a bit of a over haul , some windows pains have blow and could do with replacing, also could do with frosted glass in bathrooms and in main bathroom the window position between the lounge and bathroom needs either a better blind or frosted glass , also the settee in the lounge could do with replacing a bit uncomfortable also a pizza tray would have been use full despite these few niggles the property was in an ideal location for us and we really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back

Had a great time at the property.

It had everything one would need on a holiday. There is plenty of space for two families with four double bedrooms and two toilets. Outdoor space is great and the garden room had lots of small toys and beach stuff for kids. There is bbq as well if one wants to use. Location is great too with beach being 10-15 min walk and all local amenities nearby such as bakery, butchers, Spars and fuel pump etc.. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for convenience and comfort

Very nice stay.

Just a couple of points Needs new kettle. Hairdryer would have been useful. Maybe supply of linen and beds made would be good as arriving late was a bit of a nuisance with small children making up beds when tired after a long journey. Would still definitely stay again. Points made are just suggestions not complaints.

We actually tried to discover something that the cottage hadn't got.

Well done to the owners. The messages that are left around the cottage with information were unexpected but brilliant. I have already recommended the cottage to my brother, again well done to the owners .

The property was very spacious considering we had two families staying (4 adults, 4 kids and a baby).

Lovely garden to play in and having two bathrooms was a bonus. There is a huge issue with ants in the kitchen (not just on the floor but on the worktops, climbing up and down cupboards/fridge/dish washer etc). Even when we first went to fill the kettle there were two floating inside it. Another let down was the fact that there's a message saying not to use wifi too much or there'll be an additional charge - in this day and age having wifi is an essential. All in all the property would have been perfect if it wasn't for the ants, which the kids kept pointing out!

Superb stay at Pencreek.

..our third visit. Everything great! Would suggest that the smallest bedroom has new beds...perhaps the ones that slide under each other so that it can be a single room with more space if desired. The beds are a bit low for us oldies and the room isn't on a par with the others. Many thanks!
