Wickings Reviews

k & Alison
As you know we have contacted you many times regarding our stay, we are still waiting for the refund of 50 which has been promised to us. The house was lovely but has a lot of plumbing issues that need to be addressed for the safety of any visitors. We had to deal with scolding water gushing from an obviously corroded pipe, this with a small child in the vicinity and 2 dogs, this was mended and then 2 days later another burst pipe in the same area. Your answer to this was it's not our problem, well who took the booking and the money? And who should be assessing the properties on their lists? We await our small refund with baited breath. Thought Sykes was a reputable. Company !!
I left a previous message. . Its a lovely place but the owners must stop chasing the money and block out guests one or two days a month to keep on top of this property. I had to clean showers heads as blocked with scale .the down stairs shower scream when turned to hot as shower thermostat is starting to stick..hot tub not been cleaned ..don't believe if the chart says so I'm a retired plumber and heating guy who worked also on pools etc. Tea bags etc in kitchen 4 years out of date etc etc..had grass cutpointlesstwice in 4 days..i was recovering from hernia opp and wife in hot tub ..no text ..no email just turned up..poor communication..its not cheap to stay here so please spend and reinvest..stayed twice in a month and nothing altered..cleaners need to be more vigilant.

An excellent stay in a spacious , clean Cottage. Nicely furnished in a quiet location , perfect for a relaxing and cozy break .
Graham
This is a lovely home and I stress the word 'home' rather than holiday home as this has a lovely feel to it. Spacious accommodation with well laid out design and in a quiet neighbourhood. Unfortunately the weather wasn't too good and so we never got to explore the tiered garden, but it looked great. Appreciated the dog towels at the entrance and the doggie treats! Two points to note firstly, this is a 'no shoes indoors' property, so bring some slippers and secondly, the drive is on a slope with a camber up to the parking area no problem for our SUV but a low slung sports car might have to park on the road quiet outside.
Caroline
Wicking is a lovely large family feel home made available for holiday let. The property was clean and comfortable with all the amenities you would expect. The property is perfect for visiting venture botanical gardens and reasonably close to other attractions
