    “Where to start, based on previous reviews for this property i am surprised to be leaving this feedback.”

    It does appear that most of the issues experienced are probably outwith the owners direct control and most likely lie with 3rd party contractors (cleaners, hot tub maintenance & holiday park), however all issues stated below did affect out experience and the lack of communication and feedback from either the owner or Sykes has frankly been shocking.

    It does appear that most of the issues experienced are probably outwith the owners direct control and most likely lie with 3rd party contractors (cleaners, hot tub maintenance & holiday park), however all issues stated below did affect out experience and the lack of communication and feedback from either the owner or Sykes has frankly been shocking. Firstly the overall cleanliness was very poor. The Hot tub water did not look like it had been changed since the previous guests, dishes were dirty, there was dust and cobwebs in a number of places and the bedsheets were already covered in dog hair on arrival. Its seems the only housekeeping that had been done since the previous guest was to replace the bedsheets and towels. On Friday the hot tub was accidentally drained by the hot tub maintenance company and left like this until 3pm. This ruined the one day of the week we had intended to spend at the caravan all day. To top this off it also became apparent that there was no water, not even one drop. On speaking to people from the park we were informed this is common on a change over day (so Friday and Monday) as water is supplied from a bore hole and due to the number of hot tubs on site there is not enough water to go around. As such we were forced to go out for the day. However what makes this worse was the lack of feedback and communication from either the owner of Skyes, it was impossible to get hold of either. After a number of hours trying to get hold of someone to sort this issue either by phone, messages or email i gave up and went out. Upon return at 3pm the owner was filling the hot tub again. The owner did state that would reimburse us for that days stay and an email would follow, no email has since been recieved. Sykes did eventually get in contact via phone 30 hours afterwards and compensation was discussed, however again no further feedback has since been recieved and no compensation given. The "restaurant" on site is extremely poor. If your lucky you will get a drink (after a 30 minute wait) but expect the food to be limited to a burger and chips only. The restaurant was also extremely filthy and staff miserable. I would say that the over all location is reasonable and the caravan does have a good range of facilities. These is sky, a smart TV and a number of other usefully items. The owners did leave a nice welcome pack with prosecco and some goodies which was nice. Its just unfortunate that everything else did not reflect the same high standard else this review would have been very different. I would not recommended ever booking through Skyes as they are impossible to get hold of. I would recommended avoiding this park if you plan on staying over change over days as you will have no water all day with no prior warning!
