Just had an amazing Easter break, the most incredibly convenient central location but quietly tucked away. Everything in the house and already planning our next visit!

Charming house - living the underfloor heating- a bit of a tucked away in the middle of town - we were a bit worried that the workmen refurbishing the shop next to the house were going to be noisy but it turns out all the noise was them singing (very tuneful as it turned out but fortunately they packed up by 5pm A bit of a walk to find some grass fir Bonnie but once that was figured out, no problem A lot of Fowey seemed to be being refitted or decorated, but enough was open to survive Nice touches in the house - appreciated the little bottles of soap and washing up liquid and a real bonus to have the Quay bakery so closeHad a great time and would recommend to everyone

Great location, great price, lovely hosts. but quite a bit of negatives. Quite a bit broken or not working: bath is jacuzzi however couldn't get the jacuzzi buttons to work at all which was really gutting as we couldn't go to the hotel and use the spa due to covid. Shower holder and pole has cracks in which made it fall off while undoing the lever to move the shower head up and down down pole. Few handles are broken or fallen off already, hinge for cupboard in kitchen under sink has gone really rusty and fallen off completely when opened. Fridge and microwave wasn't clean, highly recommended the hosts to buy a plug for the sink in bathroom to stop things falling down it, (I didn't drop anything, just and idea) bath really really needs a bath mat!!! Safety reasons. And a hair trap plug or cover can be brought cheap just to put over the bath plug when women wash their hair. Over all cleanliness wasn't wasn't high standard and even more so with times at the moment with covid that it should be spotless! Need a bit of love and care on the house decoration, such as paint and raising damp on all walls, where the walls are peeling it's all over the floors, however it looks like it's been on the floor for quite a while before we arrived to stay which realky should be hovered or dusted up.
