“Extremely disappointed to discover that instead of the lakeside view that we thought we had paid for, instead there were overgrown shrubs to look at from the terrace.”
No help from owner or Sykes to rectify or compensate. A few other issues: the water boiler made the house unbearably hot even with heating off. Bedding was winter type so not comfortable. The KEEP CLEAR road markings were worn away outside so you could be waiting for 30 minutes to park your car when the ferry is busy. Some basics missing: tea towels, oven gloves, sugar supply. Fridge freezer compartment door broken. Kitchen door not fitted properly. Upside: bed and furniture comfortable. Well located for lakes. Could be so much better.

We appreciate the time taken to send your observations. We are sorry that you were disappointed with the view of the lake however the owner did not want to risk damage to nesting birds. We are glad that you found the amenities comfortable.
