Summary: A very pleasant stay in a beautiful house.
Lissa B. Aug 5, 2024 06:32:48 PM
Summary: I think it's true to say that we all fell in love with Rainbow's End. It's an amazing property in a perfect location. So nice to go to sleep listening to the sea and wake to the view of the bay. The fire pit was brilliant - the kids loved toasting marshmallows. And the outside shower was perfect to rinse off salt and sand in lovely warm water! I am sure we will be back!

Summary: We had a great time staying at this property in Praa Sands. The location was ideal for us because we wanted to do day trips but avoid some of the crowds of places like St. Ives. The house was ideally set up for our three-generation group. We loved sitting out on the patio watching the ocean in the distance and we really enjoyed the proximity to the beach. The beach is really clean and nice and sandy. The owners were extremely responsive whenever we had questions - fantastic stay!

Summary: Our second visit to this lovely house and it was just as wonderful the second time around. The hosts could not be more kind and helpful and we’ll definitely be back again soon.
RACHEL C. Sep 8, 2023 05:42:16 AM
Summary: We loved the location very near the beautiful sandy surfing beach of Praa Sands and also near the local Sandy Stores for daily fresh Cornish pasties and vicky’s fresh bread. Very tastefully furnished relaxing well designed property in an excellent location. Very responsive and helpful hosts. Informative literature and recommendations for local walks and outings. We had a week of rain and mist but that didn’t stop us from walking a lot and swimming (we had our wetsuits for extra insulation thankfully).

Summary: We all loved staying at Rainbow’s End in Praa Sands. The view of the sea from most rooms and the large raised garden decking really make the most of the beach location , and it’s only a 2 minute walk from the garden down to the long sandy beach . We were 3 generations staying in the house , and the layout meant it worked very well for everyone’s needs. It’s a well designed , light filled home . The quality and design of the fixtures and furniture , plus the interesting artwork and many books mean it felt very welcoming. We would love to stay again . Geraldine was a great host throughout , her communication was second to none , checking that we had everything we needed once we had arrived .

Summary: Lovely holiday in Praa sands. Rainbows End is a holiday home with plenty of space and particularly enjoyed the decked patio area for outdoor dining and lovely sea views. We had a fabulous week. Thank you
Tim L. Jun 30, 2023 05:02:03 PM
Summary: Rainbow's end is a stylish home just a short walk (minutes) away from the beautiful beach at Praa sands. We particularly enjoyed the lovely garden and relaxed vibe of the home.
Graham O. Jun 5, 2023 10:49:56 PM
Summary: Praa Sands is a small little enclave and perfect for a quiet relaxing break. The house itself is lovely and our hosts couldn’t have been more welcoming. We hope to come back again soon.

Summary: My family and I (two adults and two children aged 10 and 13) spent a blissful week at Rainbow's End to round off the school holidays. The weather was kind and Praa Sands beach was a revelation - golden sand, crystal clear water, rock pools and surf galore. However, the icing on the cake was staying at Rainbow's End which offers everything you could possibly want in a holiday home - from the expansive decking and garden with uninterrupted sea views, to the generously proportioned bedrooms, luxurious lounge areas and modern kitchen/diner. It's clearly a labour of love for the hosts who were in regular contact throughout our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. Thank you for having us, we'll definitely be back!
