Our Services
Changeover Cleaning & Property Preparation
We have a team of highly motivated housekeepers who look after our customers holiday properties, completing changeovers and property preparation to a consistently high standard. They apply meticulous attention to detail at all times and work to a comprehensive checklist which ensures that nothing is missed.
Spring Cleaning
When completing our changeover cleaning and property preparation services we will highlight anything we notice that needs updating or replacing, due to general wear and tear. This can often save our clients the need for a spring or deep clean, however if you would like this service to be completed after a busy season, we are more than happy to help.
Painting & Decorating
Our team of painters and decorators are dedicated to serving our clients, providing you with a high quality, clean and reliable service. They specialise in all aspects of domestic, interior and exterior painting and decorating, and can complete tasks for holiday let owners and agents all year round.
Key Storage & Handyperson Services
South West Domestics are pleased to offer a 24-hour/365 days per year on-call support service to holiday let owners. This service is extremely popular with clients who don’t live locally to their holiday let property or those who don’t have the time to deal with issues as they occur.
Welcome Packs for Guests
South West Domestics have developed good working relationships with suppliers of products indigenous to both Devon and Cornwall. As a result, we offer a range of welcome pack options. Our welcome packs are displayed in attractive boxing with decorative fillers, provided by the suppliers.
Property Checks
We like to carry out a thorough property check on a quarterly basis to ensure that maintenance is kept up to date. Some of our clients’ insurance providers require property checks to be carried out in periods where the property is unoccupied. At each property check a comprehensive report is completed.
Our customer feedback
A quality and reliable service is at the heart of what we do
"I have worked with SWD on my three holiday cottages for six years now, and if it weren't for their support I don’t think I’d continue in this business. It’s harder than most people imagine to maintain a consistently excellent standard of quality and cleanliness and yet the team at SWD manage to achieve this each week. They’ve helped me with several emergencies, they’ve offered very good advice and when things go wrong (and sometimes of course they do) they work thoroughly to put it right swiftly and we often talk together to see how we can improve the holiday experience for my guests. Thank you all of you for your continued support."
Lisa Lejac, An Skyber
“I would be happy to recommend SW Domestics, for cleaning, laundry & property management services. We’ve worked with them throughout the 2017 season and have found them to be very professional, with a friendly and helpful approach. They cover many Sykes properties and receive excellent feedback from our guests and owners.”
Lucy Williams, Managed Services team at Sykes Holiday Cottages
“My daughter and grandson stayed in your cottage this weekend, and they were very happy during their stay. It’s beautifully clean, cosy and so pleasant to be in. Flowers & wine were an extra added treat. As a result, I’d now like to book for myself and my husband. Thank you!”

“I would highly recommend South West Domestics. I was in a very tricky situation, having been let down badly by my previous contractor (who had let things at my holiday home really slide). Luke and his team were incredibly responsive and creative as they put together a plan to get my house back in order, ready for the next guests. Work was completed to a very high standard and delivered at a competitive rate.”
Claire, Atlantic Reach Holiday Village
"SWD have worked with us for a few years now. We see them as our partners in keeping our holiday cottage lovingly looked after and our guests provided with a comfy and clean environment. Our reliable housekeeper is brilliant, and I find the access to on-line tools provided by SWD particularly helpful (Properly). I hope we can continue to work together for many years to come."
