Wonderful location and wonderful house. We were itching to have a go at tidying the garden, trimming the hedges and repairing the terrace.

The property is in a lovely location with breathtaking views of the Cornish Coastline. The walk down to the beach was not too difficult, once we had decided which of the three routes was best. We had a 17 seater mini bus with us and I managed to turn this around using the three parking bays, but would not be easy if we had three vehicles with us all at the same time. Communication with the owner was great and considering we had 10 people in the property, it has more than enough space not to feel claustrophobic. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all very good (brighter lighting in the bathrooms), although some of the bedrooms do need some hanging spaces and drawers. The property, however, does need to some TLC. Parts of the kitchen need some repairs, but was equipped with everything that we needed for the stay. The outdoor decking area was brilliant for sitting out in the evening although some the chairs on the decking were replaced during our stay as two were broken when we arrived. The BBQ also needs replacing as this was damaged and beyond use. Although, the views make up for the bits that needed the TLC. The sunsets from the terrace overlooking the sea were memorable. The property is in a great location for some of the younger members who used Porthtowan for surfing, plus the adults who braved the waves. The cliff paths were very close to the property, so definitely recommend a walk to Chapel Porth either along the Cliff path or along the beach if the tide is out.

Spacious & exceptionally clean holiday home. Very well equiped. We had 4 adults, 1 teenager, 3 children, a baby & 3 cars. Plenty of bathrooms & space for everyone. Stunning views. The perfect beach a short walk down with rock pools, mermaid pool & sea caves to explore. Shops & restaurants by the beach, caters for all your needs. A wonderful 4 days with my family.

We had a lovely family get together, celebrating my sister’s Birthday. Great location! Property was perfect. With Beautiful views. Good size rooms. Well equipped facilities.Photos on site don’t do it justice! Property is much bigger. Check in/ out times could be a bit more family friendly. But understand due to size of the property. Wished we could have stayed longer.

Property and location are great. Host is friendly and responsive. Helped us resolve issue with the WiFi and heating we had on our first day. Can treck down from the cottage to the beach via hillside pathways. Cottage has a a handy outdoor tap and also a BBQ area in the rear. Views from the property are awesome. Overall, a great experience and would definitely recommend if you plan on visiting Cornwall with friends or family.

Fantastic location, plenty of parking, everything you need (home from home)
However the property is tired and needs some tlc. The garden is overgrown and the hedges are unkept which obstruct the sea views.
Overall I would definitely recommend the property.

Loved the location. Beach and cliff walks right on your doorstep. Had everything I needed. Kettle was a bit hit and miss and the sky had no signal however that didn’t ruin my stay. As expected with a holiday rental a lot of wear and tare through disregard from previous guests. Very warm place with fabulous views of the countryside and beach below. All recommended beaches are within an hour of the property . St Agnes is a great view point which is only 10 mins away. A local shop is a few metres walk away and they are very friendly. Major supermarkets about 20 mins away but getting a delivery was well worth it. Would definitely come again. The dogs loved it and was a great birthday vacation.

Beautiful sunset views from almost every room. Great bathrooms, good mattresses, pillows and bedding. However, the house needs a little TLC/updating. We still had a great stay and it was ideal for 4 mature ladies to get away for a long weekend of R&R

Lovely position overlooking Porthtowan and south west along the coast to Carbis Bay and St Ives. Close to the coastal path providing beautiful walks to many tin mines along the heritage coast trails. Perfect getaway whatever the weather. Very comfortable and showers were excellent

My family and I spent a weekend at this property and absolutely fell in love. The view alone makes it worth the stay. But the house was also great. A little hard to find and a little ways from town, which ensures privacy and peace and quiet, but also still close enough for grocery delivery. :) Easy check-in/out process and timely communication. Highly recommend.

This house and its location are stunning. We has such a great time here and loved the well equiped kitchen. The house was clean and warm, wish we could have stayed for longer.

Excellent location, spacious, well equipped.
6.0 / 10.0
As mentioned before, the location is beautifull but remote. The house is spacious as well for a big group.
Now the downside:
As mentioned two years ago by other visitors, one bed is still stabilized by bricks as is the settee in the lounge. The railing of the terrace won’t hold anybody falling against it. The terrace door is difficult to close and doesn’t close properly. The bathrooms look fairly recently fitted, but the light is extremely dim in all of them ( more like candlelight). The kitchen is well equipped but getting towards its end of time - again the light is pretty dim. Their isn‘t sufficient wardrobe space nor a cloak room if you are travelling with a few people over a longer period.
The house is full of cobwebs and dust. The windows are dirty. May a new cleaner would help..
Otherwise Mark is very helpful when you contact him. I just hope he reads this and considers some repairs and newfurniture as well as better cleaning.

A good location for us, however the walk back up the hill from the beach is challenging to say the least.
The property generally in good condition but could do with a little love
8.0 / 10.0
Lovely house, garden and locality. Access to the beach was easier to walk to the end of the road and down the hill.
Split your recycling and put in bags, saves the rubbish collectors opening all your bags to separate it!!
The house is nice, plenty of room to have your own space. (There was 10 of us and a dog). It’s well equipped for cooking, condiments, washing up liquid, tea towels etc. The house could do with a bit of TLC as could the decking area, (fence and some of the chairs). Garden itself is lovely, well kept lawn and flower beds and plenty of room for the kids to play.
The 4 bathrooms were good, showers were warm and powerful especially the main bathroom. (You had a bath and hand towel each).
Early check out (9.30) is a bit harsh although found the 5pm check in more of an inconvenience, would say an early check in would be good if an option going forward.
Beach is sandy, watch the tide though. A walk to chapel beach along the beach is worth it! Not an over commercialised area which is really nice.
Would stay here again and would recommend it.

We had a great time celebrating my mum and her partner finally getting married after 25 years together.
The house was lovely and great value for money. The views are incredible!
The only downside for us was the neighbours made it more than clear they are not happy about a holiday let being on the street, (more than happy to discuss this with the own otherwise, a great stay.

Fantastic and very special property with great layout and views. We were a group of 9 adults for our annual meetup. We found the place a great launching point for various Cornwall adventures, as well as a wonderful place to simply relax at the house. Very easy in and out. Good WiFi. A couple of good restaurants (Unicorn and Blue Bar) in walking distance and the access to the Coastal Path was phenomenal!

We loved this property - the views from many windows was amazing and we were lucky with the weather for most of our stay. The approach to the property is interesting - narrow road full of potholes so drive with care and slowly!!
10.0 / 10.0
My family and I enjoyed staying at this property - nice lay out so you all have your own little bit of space but nice big communal areas for spending time together - the hosts have left lots of condiments/cleaning products/utensils so you don’t need to buy/take lots of things with you - really pretty view. Sunsets are 10/10 and are visible from most of the house. The nearby beach has a lovely local/community feel to it.
Overall - very happy with our stay

We stayed for 3 nights over a Weekend in March, and even with iffy (cold, bit rainy) it was wonderful. House is exactly as shown in the pics - immaculate -- with unexpected beautiful views from not only the family room (with huge expanse of glass including out onto the patio) but also from the master and from the kitchen. The setting at the end of the street means you get both water and headline views, with nothing in between, and walk directly unto the headland trails. Big kitchen, big dining room, plenty of comfy beds and bathrooms for 10 people. Loved this, will plan to come back,.

Our family gathering of five adults and three children had more than enough room and were very comfortable for our three nights. I won’t repeat what other reviews have said about the positive aspects, view and location; however, I feel that renters need to be aware that there are some issues in the property that would benefit from investment to improve the quality of the interior fabric.
• The LED lighting in the kitchen and bathrooms is very dim and cold creating an uninviting atmosphere
• Many of the windows are completely misted (view spoiler) between the panes and unable to be opened
• The fireplace door does not completely close which creates a draft that accelerates burning. The fire is best with the door open once it lights but be aware that smoke will reverse into the room as the heat decreases. There is also a constant draft coming into the living room from the fireplace flue
• The glass doors in the living room do not seal completely and very draughty with a strong southwest wind
• The paintwork in places needs attention. For example, the sea facing front bedroom has a large area where the paint has peeled away around the window, most likely due to moisture
• The patio table and chairs need a good sanding and oiling to remove the lichen and preserve the wood
• If you want to plug your phone in by the bed, you may have to unplug the table lamp from the outlet
Nevertheless, we were all extremely pleased with the property and would love to return same time next year.

This is a well-equipped Cottage with good facilities. Location is great, right on the SW Coastal Path with 2 pubs on the Blue Flag sandy beach close-by.

Perfect!
Hired this place out for a get a way with friends before the Christmas break, we could not believe the size of the place for the price, incredibly reasonable.
Gorgeous living room with an incredible sea view, really clean and tidy bedrooms with enough storage for clothes. Log burner made for a lovely cosy atmosphere.
There were 9 of us so we were ready for dinner to be difficult, but there were plenty of glassware and kitchen equipment to cook with.
Just a short walk down to the beach and local shop, it's peaceful without bring in the middle of nowhere.
Thank you very much!!!

Stayed here for a few nights with friends. 10 of us altogether- plenty of space. The views are incredible here and the house is just a great house to chill in and have home cooked meals with friends! Would definitely stay here again!

10 of us stayed for a milestone birthday. The location was brilliant, as was the communication with the host of the property.
Instructions for the parking and directions to the property were very helpful.
The property had more than we thought would be available (salt, pepper, kitchen utensils etc).
If we had to leave one bit of feedback which would have improved our stay further it would be regarding the check in and check out time. If we had only stayed for one night a 5pm check in and 9.30am check out would have put us off staying at the property.
Overall, really pleased with our stay!
Thank you!
