What our customers say about their holidays

  As a group of six ‘over sixty’ friends we had a wonderful blustery week at ‘Seagrass’.

  I had originally booked it for a three generation family holiday but had to change our plans because of a very early new arrival. It would have worked equally well for the family, however. As adults it was perfectly positioned for all of our plans, from St.Ives to Padstow to The Eden Project to stunning coastal walks. The house itself is beautifully modern and the ‘upside down’ open plan nature of the layout is a real winner. Even on a stormy Saturday the lashing of rain on the floor to ceiling windows was dramatically romantic! The kitchen was excellently equipped (although The Stove cooker was a little complicated!) and the bathrooms very modern. Linens were excellent and the house cosy and well insulated. An enclosed garden remained unused by us but would be great for children. We were too busy to take advantage of it and the weather wasn’t quite conducive to barbecueing. Crantock is a lovely unspoilt village with a great village shop and local pub. The beach is stunningly beautiful although I would say that it isn’t an ideal beach for young children because of the tidal estuary. They would, though, have fun on the sand and in the sand dunes. I would highly recommend ‘Seagrass’ for any time of year if you are a lover, as we are, of Cornwall.

  Overall a nice property, starting to show some wear though .

  We had issue with no hot water in kitchen and dishwasher plugged in with extension lead, as a issue with previous guests . Electric also tripped a numerous times while there and kettle died in process so had to boil pans for water. Was offered electrician out but didn’t want to stay in waiting for them especially on holiday . Fridge freezer down stairs has rusty sharp edges which we caught our fingers on and lots of broken doors and very noisy. Washing machine fine , tumble dryer useless gave up on it . Into the upstairs room the carpet and fraying and trip hazard so should be looked at so close to the stairs . Then lastly I know it covid but there was no cleaning products what do ever except fairy liquid, you want it clean but leave no supplies wouldn’t need much and cheap enough to supply. Don’t expect to go shopping for these and not due to covid as we have stayed in other properties over the pandemic, Sykes,aspect, blue chip air bnb and all supplied . We did enjoy our stay , we wouldn’t let those issues spoil our break .

  Seagrass is a lovely house, perfect for two families and two dogs!

  It is really well equipped and there's a lovely view from the upstairs lounge. There was plenty of room for everyone to sit comfortably in the lounge and the kitchen area is nice and big with a good sized table.The utility room is very useful and the bathrooms are nicely done out. The location is perfect with a short walk to the beach or pub. There are also plenty of nearby beaches just a short drive away. The kids enjoyed body boarding down the sand dunes! The games room was disappointing as was the mattress in the front double bedroom which definitely needs replacing! Would highly recommend the house though for any family/families wanting to visit Cornwall.

  Our second visit to Seagrass.

  Good location central to the village. Nice property with plenty of room, good amenities and large, tidy garden. Property starting to look dated, inside and out and in general need of maintenance. Overall stay would have been great had it not been for a faulty immersion tank leaving us with no hot water in the bathrooms for the entire week !. Despite the very best efforts of the management company this was not fixed until the day prior to our departure. Symptomatic of the maintenance the property is in need of I believe. Sykes Cottages were impossible to contact and of no help in resolving the issue either.

  A very well maintained and equipped house, very clean and very well located for the amenities of Crantock and beyond.

  My only suggestion for improvement would be a more comfortable (wider and longer) bed in the main bedroom without hard edges. This proved a little tight for a couple and the wooden frame caused us a few bruises! I would also provide a hose for the outside tap so we do not bring sand into the house. The other slight inconvenience was the fact that you could not freely use the shower hose in the bath as it was restricted by a fitting. Thank you for a lovely stay - we had a great time, would recommend the accommodation and would definitely return : )
