Summary: The view out of the front is like an oil painting. Accommodation is comfortable, cosy and practical and everything we needed was provided and more. It felt like home from home. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us. I would warmly recommend it to other potential guests. Agency's communications

Summary: Lovely peaceful cottage, superbly equipped. We enjoyed the tranquillity of the Creek, the herons, egrets and twittering of the house martins. Lovely walk to St. Clement’s (bit muddy in places) and it’s a perfect base for our excursions to the Roseland Peninsula, Lands end , St. Agnes, Fowey, etc etc. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely property with us.

Summary: The communication from finest retreats was really good. The views from the accommodation were amazing, it’s a great location and the house was really well kitted out with nice facilities. Being able to use the kayaks was a great bonus Some areas of the house (on the outside) looked a little unloved. For example the outside furniture was cobwebby and had bird poo on it which we needed to clean before using it. The kitchen layout was a little tricky as it’s long and narrow with the fridge at one side and the oven, kettle etc at the other.

Summary: This property is spectacular. Beautiful views, comfortable king size beds (2) with luxury linen and bath sheets. There was everything you could possibly need supplied, including a fabulous extra large outdoor spa.. we were welcomed with an incredible gift basket and the property only got better from there. We travel a lot and I have never stayed anywhere better. I would book again in a heart beat. Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday. One week was not enough in this beautiful place.

Summary: location, comfy beds, log burner kitchen was a little narrow but fine. A few more logs would have been nice.
Lisa Jul 10, 2023 09:45:57 PM
Summary: Such a peaceful week watching the tide ebb and flow from the main window A little disappointed by a few things at the property 1 toilet roll provided (there was 4 of us) 1 tea towel..1 bin bag, 1 hand towel. The steps going upto the property were lose and uneven in parts (bricks moved under feet ..felt unsafe) Again the steps at the rear got very slippy and after rain my husband slipped on them after taking the dog into the garden (no hand rail) The toilet seat needs fixing, it moves when you sit on it. On the whole the house felt very cold and we did try to increase the thermostat but this constantly reset itself. The property could do with a sweeping brush on the premises, the hoover was very cumbersome and sweeping a whole floor with a dustpan and brush isn't feasible.

Summary: This is such a fantastic house. We stayed in Malpas last year and loved it so much we decided to come back but wanted more space. This house gave us that and more. It's a home not a holiday home, exceptionally well equipped, and a lovely feel to it. Light airy rooms with magnificent views across the River Fal. My partner did not want to come home. This area is so peaceful but is close to everything. You can explore the whole of Cornwall from here without spending all day in the car. There is a fantastic walk from the house to St Clements and the cafe and pub are such a bonus being just down the road. One of the big pluses though, having stayed in this area before is the garage. It can be a nightmare to park and gets very busy and this was not an issue with an enormous garage for us to use. All in all a perfect stay and we will be looking to rebook for next year. Thank you. Bathroom could do with a refresh.
Fleur Jul 18, 2022 11:26:39 PM
Summary: views lot of steps not good for my elderly mother.
Simon H. Jul 1, 2022 06:00:03 AM
Summary: Great property, amazing views, nice and peacefully getaway
Mark Apr 22, 2022 10:49:00 PM
Summary: The Views are simply stunning and the quality/comfort of accommodation was first class. Really easy to access Truro and surrounding region, whilst feeling remote and peaceful. We will be back!! Notification of steps to gain access but being picky.
