We have stayed at 8 wonderful Sykes Properties in the last 2 years but this is definitely the best! 10/10!! The apartment was absolutely stunning, as was the view & the location was fabulous. We wanted for nothing as the apartment was so well equipped & beautifully furnished. In fact the apartment was immaculate. We arrived & had a lovely glass on wine, which the owner had left us. We sat on the balcony looking at the sheep. This was a lovely start to our holiday. We haven't slept so well in years as the bed was so comfortable! We didn't want to leave on our last day but came home very relaxed & happy. WE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK! :)
