Chy Pol

Outside sun lounges would be a good addition

Lovely stay in a quiet, idyllic cottage.

Its position within the farm is secluded and very private and excellent if you have a dog. It is local to all amenities and excellent beaches that you can walk dogs on (Polzeath beach dogs are allowed between 6pm and 10am through the summer and not during the day) but we made an evening of going down to walk in the beach and have some food.

Lovely place in a good setting.

clean modern with everything you need.only downside was settee and chairs quite uncomfortable. Other than that great place

We had another enjoyable stay at the cottage.

It's well situated for the places we wanted to visit and the enclosed garden and use of the woodland were perfect for our dog.

The property was exactly what was required for our two night stay, however the absence of a welcome pack of basics (maybe milk), alongside no tea / coffee (new receptacles in cupboard but empty and don’t look like they’ve been used) and when you advertise a log burner with nothing to light it with and a couple of matchsticks to light which would last ten minutes top, it did leave a really sour taste in the mouth for £372, especially given it was Saturday / Sunday and not Friday, plus £672 for the week.

Following previous visits with Sykes this was poor and I found myself taking photos of how the place was left in case we were burdened with a charge up to £150, for sand on the laminate or something petty. Sykes used to reknowned for great places to stay and wanting for nothing whilst you’re on holiday, this has definitely been downgraded in the last five years.

A lovely cottage.

Well looked after and fully equipped. Bed comfortable,, all areas clean and tidy.

Accommodation and facilities to a good level.

Location excellent for access to a number of attractions. The only reservation were, cleaning in the shower cubicle could be improved, and outside seating/bbq is good but is in an enclosed high walled rather stark area giving a somewhat claustrophobic feeling.

Very well located and in a peaceful setting.

The house was well furnished and had everything we needed. The information pack was useful. I would highly recommend Chy Pol to anyone looking for a cosy little place to book. Woodburner is a nice feature as is the outside shower

We had a lovely stay at Chy Pol.

Myself, my husband and two children (aged 4 and 18 months) stayed for a week. The accommodation was well set out, being all on one floor was great with two young children, the enclosed garden was an added bonus. The facilities were good and the cottage was comfortable and well equipped. It’s in a great location to explore Rock, Polzeath, Padstow and we also had day trips to Fowey and the Eden Project. We hope to be back.

Really nice very comfortable property in a lovely location.

Comfy bed & powerful shower plus two large TV's in lounge & main bedroom. Great patio & garden area which was totally enclosed & safe for the dogs. Excellent parking facilities too although wi-fi non existent for whole week which was the only downside.

The property was greatly located and the description was very accurate of Chy Pol.

Our family loved it and it was greatly enclosed for our dog too. We would definitely recommend and go back here again.

The property was very clean and accessible The property was suitable for our needs as we were visiting family in the area We will definitely use again if the need arises

Lovely little holiday cottage, well planned out, the garden was brilliant being fully enclosed for the dogs, made life much easier.

All in all a great break!

Hi, The cottage was perfect for the stay I had.

Very clean, well equipped and spacious enough for myself and my dog. We brought logs for the fire with us as none were provided. The pub and shop etc are not really walking distance unless you walk down narrow roads with no paths. Only issue for me was the really late check in of 4pm with leaving at 9.30 am. Feels like you miss a whole day of your cottage. Thanks

Really enjoyed our stay - lovely modern home in a quiet location

A great 3 night stay for us and our dog.

The property was perfectly situated for the places we wanted to visit. Comfortable bed and lounge furniture plus the enclosed patio/garden was ideal for our dog. Looking at a return next year.

Wonderful little bungalow.

Perfect for us as location is exactly where we wanted to be

Really nice bungalow, clean, great position, for lots of nice beaches, bays.

Fully equipped kitchen, washing up liquid, d/w tabs. Etc. Lovely clean bed linen/towels/tea towels. Hairdryer in bedside drawer!

This bungalow was perfect for a family of three and two dogs.

The beds were super comfortable, and there was a well equipped kitchen, with all appliances. Improvements we would suggest would be perhaps a coffee machine eg a nespresso capsule type machine. And also the house really needs a washing line outside eg a 10 meter retractable on that can be hocked onto the walls as you need it. There is only a small airer currently which is not enough for a family with things like beach towels and normal amounts of laundry.

Hi there well what a fantastic find.

We have been to Cornwall every year for a decade and this beautiful bungalow was the best place we’ve ever stayed. Beautiful setting and what a lovely bungalow. Everything was perfect. If ever you want to sell it. Please can I have first refusal. Thanks a million x

Overall this a great little bungalow and great location.

Bungalow is well equipped with comfy beds and we found everything we needed to make evening meals. The outside space worked really well for our dog and was fully secure. The negatives were no hairdryer - not great with a teenage daughter and mum who didn’t pack theirs! Also the property looks surface clean on arrival but the drawers and wardrobe shelves needed dusting before unpacking clothes in them and the floors needed a good hoover. The outside furniture needs tipping as it’s pretty rusty and grim! We did enjoy our stay and think it could be a great little bungalow it just needs a more thorough clean with such regular guest turnover and new garden seating.

We had been very much looking forward to our trip having been to this part of Cornwall Wall many times before.

When we arrived after a 4 hr drive. The worktops in the kitchen dirtys and all the dining table also dirty. I though ok these are minor things there was cleaning items there i'll wash everything down. We dropped our things off as it was a sunny day. The rain came in we got soaked. Came back to have a shower no hot water. Thought brilliant. There was a john bray booklet in property after ring many numbers we finally got one that worked , well the gentleman said please text me. So we explained we had no water. Was asked to leave property while it was fixed. I contacted them a few hrs later as we had heard nothing. It had been fixed so after been sat in soaking wet clothes for 2 hrs we went back to get a note left from maintenance it would take a further 2 hrs for the water to warm up. This is absolutely not what you expect. 4 hrs in soaking wet clothes to wait for a shower. Then we finally at 9.30pm got into the shower and it flooded with 1 min of being on. We didn't phone maintenance as to be honest we just couldn't be bothered after it took 4 hrs the last time and it was a Saturday night and we were meant to be on holiday. The outside light hardly even worked and wasn't bright enough for the location of the proprty anyone elderly woukd habe struggked if they also had taken a dog. Then the following day tried to wash our dogs with outside shower this also didn't work and looked like it hadn't for a long time. We had stayed in a John bray cottage at Christmas in padstow Town which was absolutely wonderful we had so many lovely touches left for us. This property how ever did not live up to the pictures or standards of that. The halls in the main bedroom had cracks all over them and so did all the hallway walls and walls in living room the whole length where radiator is. John bray contacted us when we arrived home and I explained everything with them. I also contacted Sykes cottages who didn't want to know and offered us no refund. They said we should have contacted house keeping to come and clean the property again for us and also would have sent a plumber out. To be completely honest it took 4 hrs to fix the boiler we were completely fed up and why should we be contacting them when 1 the property should of been clean and 2 should surely check all facilities work before advertising them as so. What made matter worse after I had made my complaints to John bray and skyes I went on the review pay to make a review and they same comment had been made by someone who had stayed in the property one month earlier so they obviously took my £400 for a 3 night stay in early March and didn't bother fixing any of the issues. I would absolutely not book with Sykes cottages again. The accomodation was in a fairly remote place with several cottages around ours which we didn't mind this at all as we visit the area 5/6times a year. And perfect for the things we do but the pictures don't show a true reflection of property. And if you happy ringing multiple times to get thing fixed that's ok but we were not as we tried to enjoy our holiday so stay out as much as possible. For the price we paid in March there were many nicer property's which was a shame .

The shower does not drain well and floods bathroom, many areas of bathroom in disrepair requiring remedial work.

The curtains in main bedroom were threadbare and you can see straight through them. The kitchen utensils were awful, flimsy old and not one sharp knife. There are no hooks on doors or anywhere to be able to hang clothes on, no where easy with a mirror to dry hair or put make up on. The cleaners mid way were superb and did a fantastic job of cleaning. So thanks to them. Very tired property indeed needs overhauling decorating etc. it doesn’t live up to the photographs and is extremely dark in front room. The car park kept flooding from the back/front gate and it made it hard to get in and out of the car. We tried all the phone numbers on the day we arrived (Saturday) as no clear instructions for the heating and immersion were left and those that were there were from a past letting company with 3 different WiFi codes, plus to mention the shower draining. We were unable to get a response from any of the numbers and you ring one number only to be told to ring another so we went without and muddled along. We have stayed in all the houses in upper and lower Treglyn but this was the most uncomfortable of them all. Which is such a shame as such a great place to be.

The gutter is blocked, and the water overflows to the soffit.

The roof will be damaged soon.
