The location is good- Cambourne itself isnât nice, but it is really close to hayle st Ives parran porth and Newquay. The hot tub is fab and the outside bit is nice. The place is clean, but as stated it is very very small. I have multiple bruises from the âstair caseâ Iâm 5ft 6 and 12 stone and if your much bigger you would struggle to get up and down them I think. You canât really chill out in the evening times unless you go and lay in the bed. I know itâs small, but would be so much better to have a small corner comfy sofa made or something where you can relax rather than just sitting on the two chairs. We purchased food for the first night and as we went to cook it the oven didnât work it kept tripping the electric every time we turned it on therefore we had to throw the food we had bought. We did contact Sykes but only got a response the day we were leaving. Also would have been nice to be able to put the heating on at night especially to dry wet clothes as our clothes got wet from rain. We still had a good holiday, but I wouldnât stay again and wouldnât book with Sykes.

The stairs are dangerous in them selves and don't suit everybody. Unfortunately didn't enjoy our stay and ended up leaving a day early
