“This is a perfect place to relax and unwind with spectacular sea views.”

The cottage is extremely clean and comfortable with a secure garden to the rear which our dog enjoyed playing in. Although the owner is on hand should you need him we had all the privacy we needed and were very happy with our two week stay. We look forward to staying here again.

“It is not a 5 minute walk to the beach, it’s closer to 20.”

It is not pet friendly, more pet tolerant. Asking for extra payment per pet when booking and then asking people to hoover the house at the end of the holiday, leaving no trace of their pet makes me question what we paid the £40 for when we booked. Also, the Wi-Fi is terrible, it buffers all the time, even BBC iPlayer on the TV was unwatchable. The fact that you live in a house attached to this property should form part of the listing. We booked what looked like a detached home, in its own grounds, only to find it’s nothing of the sort. The main photo of the house in the property details is deceptive, it cuts the left off which is where the owners park their cars and walk past the windows of the house. The water situation is not acceptable, having to wait mid-shower, covered in soap and shampoo for the water to come back on because your home gets it first is really bad. The views are amazing but the large hedge means that you struggle to see anything when seated in the sitting room. It wasn’t as we expected in terms of distance to the beach (we ended up paying £10 per day to park there) and it didn’t offer the privacy I would expect from a house advertised as detached. I think more honesty is needed in the listing.

“This is our second visit to Bay View House Crantock.”

The house overlooks Crantock Bay and there are three pubs within walking distance. The house is super plenty of space two bathrooms, so very clean with an enclosed back garden and large front garden. The owners are friendly and quick to deal with the slightest of problems. I would highly recommend this property which is set is such a beautiful position with the coastal path within walking distance away.

Jayne December 2022

“We’ve been here many times before which is a testimont to such a beautiful house which feels more like home and in the most amazing location.”

As this was a winter holiday the house was very warm and the kitchen very well equipped. The views are amazing and we cannot wait to return again in a few months time.

- Jayne, December 2022

Thank you! Property Owner
Lindsay December 2022

“Lovely views and spacious property.”

The sofas were so very uncomfortable though. As we were staying out of season, we were not out and about much. The tv had only a free view box, where you would expect a smart tv these days, this was very disappointing. (DVD player, but no dvds) Lovely managers. Beds were comfortable. Would be useful to have a small shelf to put toiletries on in the en-suite. Bigger dining table, struggle to fit 5 with food on. It’s quite a small 6 seater.

- Lindsay, December 2022

Thank you for the feedback, One of our jobs this winter is to upgrade to a smart TV. That will be in for the new season. I think sofas are personal preference as i think they are very comfortable and have been told by other guests they are too. I do apologise that you were not comfortable in the living room during your holiday. We used to have lots of dvds but were told to take them out during covid and for guests to bring their own if needed. I bigger dinning table is something we may look into in the future. Thanks for staying with us. Joe Property Owner

Anne May 2022

“Beautiful house with amazing sea views.”

The house is comfortable, clean and a pleasure to stay in. There is easy access to Crantock Beach and Polly Joke Beach and Crantock Village has 2 pubs and a quaint tea room. The Bowgie pub is within walking distance and you can eat your meal overlooking amazing views of the coast. Great walks from the house and the house is dog friendly. We would happily stay there again.

Really clean which was great particularly with the COVID situation. Joe, property manager, very pleasant and helpful.

Clive February 2020

“Bay View House is a beautiful house in a stunning location.”

Everything you need is provided and there is plenty of living space particularly on the ground floor which was great for five adults. The beds were all really comfortable too. The view from the lounge and, the two front bedrooms of the bay are fantastic. We visited in February and the house was lovely and warm and we used the log burners more for effect than because we needed the heat. Very friendly helpful owners, we are definitely planning to return.

- Clive, February 2020
Carolyn February 2020

“We arrived just as storm Dennis was hitting land, so the views of the sea were amazing.”

We were very cosy in Bay View House any time of day, and it was spacious and extremely clean. The whole experience was excellent, from booking, arrival and departure. A very satisfied family, thank you!

- Carolyn, February 2020

“This is a wonderful dog friendly holiday home in an enviable position - all the comforts of home in a wonderful area.”

Ross February 2019

“Bay View House was close to perfect in every way.”

The rooms were clean, well decorated and spacious. It had every facility including a welcome bottle of wine and biscuits. The owner lived next door and was very friendly. He made it clear he was available if needed but then kept out of our way whilst we were there - perfect combination! The views from the two main bedrooms and the lounge are breathtaking. A note about a recent review we saw which said that the heating was off during the main part of the day unless you made an additional payment. This was NOT the case when we stayed in February 2019, and the house was pleasantly warm throughout at all times, even without using the log burner provided in the lounge. Will be staying there in the future.

- Ross, February 2019

We’ve stayed here lots of times in the summer but in the winter it’s not good house very very cold spoke to owner who charged us more while we were there for having the heating on property is not cheap to rent and would expect to be albe to have heating on especially in the winter took my 80 year old mom who suffered due to the cold in the property very dissatisfied would not go there again

- Jason, December 2018

Thank you for your comments. I am sorry to hear you found the property was colder than previous visits, I can see our team have been in contact with you following your stay. We have spoken with the owner and can confirm during the winter months the heating is on from 6am - 11pm. if you require further heating throughout the night then this can be arranged with the owner on arrival, this does not incur additional charges. Thanks Again, Sykes Cottages. Property Owner

“Very friendly owners, great house and brilliant location”

- William, August 2018
Sara July 2018

“Brilliant holiday!”

Booked through another company which then became part of Sykes, a few weeks before the holiday itself. I needed to contact Sykes to confirm everything was as originally booked (e.g. dog was still included, as not clear). This was an extra job I had not anticipated. It would have been ideal if Sykes had contacted me directly/personally about the booking and change of company.

About the location

CRANTOCK

Newquay 4.5 miles.

Crantock is a small Cornish village, just a short walk from the beach, close to the popular resort of Newquay. If you want to escape the crowds, yet still be close to the action, this is the place to be. There's stunning countryside all around and lots of pretty villages to explore; however, it is the coast that dominates. Enjoy superb walks along the coastal path over dramatic cliff-tops, or magnificent surfing on beaches stretching from Watergate Bay in the North to Fistral beach in the centre of Newquay and on down the coast. There are a number of golf courses in the area, as well as National Trust properties, traditional pubs and outstanding restaurants. Newquay itself is a visitor's paradise with a wide variety of shops, pubs and restaurants, plus attractions such as the Sea Life Centre, Newquay Zoo and nearby Dairyland and Eden Project.

Note: There is a £40 charge per pet.
