The Neighborhood:

The ancient market town of Aberystwyth, can be found settled on the west coast of Wales. With its name meaning 'the mouth of the river Ystwyth' and set on the west coast of Wales, it offers an abundance of beautiful waters, perfect for watersports or a simple stroll along the Victorian promenade on a summer's day. The town offers a wide variety of shops, restaurants, pubs, tea rooms, museums, cinema, and the National Library of Wales, providing something for every taste. The scenic 20-mile cycle route and footpath on the Ystwyth Trail, linking Aberystwyth to Tregaron, follows a wonderful woodland and river. A trip on the steam railway from Aberystwyth to Devil's Bridge is a great way to visit the falls. The seaside resort of Borth is just 7 miles away, with its 3 miles of sandy beach and an Animalarium to keep all ages amused. With the ruins of Aberystwyth Castle close by, welsh craft centers and stunning countryside to explore, this is a perfect base for a well-deserved break

Disliked: Check-in, listing accuracy
Unable to gain access, VRBO/SYKES had the wrong email and phone number for the host, only gained access from 3rd party after investigation on site. The gas boiler had a service label stating last service was 2021. It wouldn't warm any water. We turned the boiler off on an evening for safety reasons. Also an electric heater with a DANGER do not use label stuck on.No TV as Internet very very weak. The electric shower had to be used on its lowest setting as to get any water hot enough for a warm shower the electric would trip. The whole cabin was very tired. On the plus side the bed was comfortable and the site and beach was excellent. I've used VRBO/SYKES many times with no issues but communication with them was dire, no email confirmation and very poor phone response. It's fair to say I was very disappointed with Sykes and won't be using them again.
