Amazing location, beautiful property with everything you could want or need. So quirky, as a Swiftie I felt like I was staying in the folklore cabin. Lovely property.
Bed was uncomfortable, kids didn’t like the beam that runs through the middle of the beds in the crows nest. Ladder was a little scary for them. Everything is great other than the actual sleeping part. My daughter ended up sleeping on the sofa.

The boathouse is so cozy, that we felt like home instantly. It’s equipped with everything you need and it’s in a great location, not far from every spot we wanted to visit. The communication with the host was excellent. The initial information provided was so detailed that we didn’t have any problems finding our way around.

Location was excellent and the boathouse had everything you needed.
Nothing. My mother had a very small issue with the bed, but this was to do with her/her age and not the property.

Very cosy little venue, perfect for the family. Facilities easy to use and lovely and clean when we arrived. Garden area was a bonus kids loved it. We chosen Enys Boathouse due to its central location to everything around Cornwall and didn't dissapoint. Was very pleased that you can order takeaway there too as it was a long drive for us and didn't want to cook on the first night ;). Overall very pleased with the venue.
Parking is a bit of a squeeze. The skylight doesn't have a blind which didn't help us as we like to sleep in the dark. But we improvised 🤣 I also think a little gate would be a great addition to the garden and be an extra safety measure for the kids. Bed does the job but not the most comfy. Nothing major really just us being picky. It's fantastic value for money and my partner and I are already looking to book again next year :)

Thank you!

Great central location, we visited a different town every day.
The boathouse is incredibly comfortable and offers practically everything you need.
The attic room wasn't suitable for our 4 Yr old sleep walking child but we made the stay work regardless.
The electric shower doesn't work properly due to the low water pressure, that's our one real gripe.

Quirky, cosy accommodation. Well thought out design and decor.
Owner was available to answer questions for weeks beforehand, as well as during stay.
Clear instructions regarding where things were, how things worked, and what was expected of us before we left.
Minor things: gf didn't like where the TV was. I didn't like where the bathroom lights were. Water from hot tap gets hot very quickly. Car slid a little entering parking space, and wheelspun once leaving it, due to gravel on paved area. None of these things spoiled our holiday.

Absolutely adorable cabin, feels like a home.
Very peaceful, very quiet.
Village pub is fantastic, great food and wonderful staff.

Characterful accommodation, in a peaceful location.. A good central spot for visiting Southern Cornwall, with both coasts easily accessible. Enys Boathouse is well-equipped, with everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Pleasant rural views from the outside terrace.
All good.

The property was clean and cosy. Mike the owner is very helpful and friendly.
The earlier reviews about the bed can be discarded as he has changed to a comfortable bed recently which was very comfortable.
Shower was slow but it is not his fault as the water pressure is poor in the area. Also parking was not a problem for us. We loved Cornwall and the weather was perfect for us to explore the most.
Well expected few things which was not as we thought it would be but no one is to blame and expectations brings misery so instead of focusing on bad, we concentrated more on positive things so no complaints.

Absolutely loved the property and the fact that it was a bit quirky and different; it had everything that we needed and wanted! My son especially loved the ‘roof beds’!! it was spotlessly clean and a brilliant base for visiting lots of places. We’ve already booked a return trip!

The property was quirky and cosy. It had everything we needed and more! We weren’t expecting to have towels supplied and there was even tea and coffee.

Perfectly located in a small village allowing easy access to Lands End & The Lizard areas. Village pub provides good food & drink but can get fully booked with present Covid restrictions. Owners live on site & provide unobtrusive help & insight to local facilities.
Nothing to dislike as far as I’m concerned. Perfect for 2 adults. Could be tight for space for 4 or more people.

Everything is top quality and so practical. It's a real boathouse except instead of the river it's an amazing landscape that you can admire.
Nothing to dislike.

Everything! The Boathouse is quaint, it has all what you need, it's just beautiful. It's located in a quiet little village. The views were just spectacular.
There is fully functioning little kitchen with all essentials. The boathouse is clean and exactly what you need for time away to forget every day worries. It was very easy to forget about the world :-)
The owner is very friendly and caring.
We will be definitely coming back and will be recommending the Boathouse to all our friends and family.
We had amazing time away. Thank you!
Nothing. The Boathouse is just AMAZING
