  I booked this staycation as a treat for my Daughter and my grandson.

  On arrival to the property it became clear there were no laundry facilities on site to wash clothing during their stay and I was told by the owners a launderette would have to be used which was a 15 minute walk from the property and with it being a self catering property with no onsite laundry facilities this was strange. Also having to make regular trips to launder wet water gear and towels used for the beach regularly was not ideal and caused more expense as well as taking time throughout the stay which is far from ideal. There is also no way of drying wetsuits after use in the sea as no outside hanging space. Also an iron was provided in the property but no ironing board to use with it? Also with regular trips to the beach throughout the stay and no vacuum in the property to clear up sand debris off footwear was a nuisance with just the use of a dust pan and brush. You would have to ensure you have plenty of extra beach towels and clothing to last during your stay if you wish to not use a local launderette during your stay. Also no dishwasher so the facilities provided are pretty basic which does not reflect well in the rental cost per week. Fabulous location and great heating but the other factors I’ve mentioned were a huge let down and I feel it should be made known in the property details about the lack of laundry facilities onsite and cleaning facilities to keep the property tidy during a stay here. Otherwise it’s in a great location.

  Just stayed here for a week.

  There was a few problems on arrival: 1: there was cobwebs and spiders in the bedroom, bathroom and living kitchen area 2: ants on the floor in the kitchen area 3: the patio area was very over grown (nothing like the pictures shown) 4: there is a cat which is not mentioned in the description. (Our dog doesn't like cats) When we knocked on the door and mentioned these problems to the owner we were told the patio area is a wildlife one and the weeds are too much to maintain, there shouldn't be cobwebs as she had just spent three hours cleaning the property, the birds like eating the ants and she couldn't do much about the cat other than say he doesn't go in the patio area so wouldn't be a problem. ( The cat does go in the patio area as we found out one morning when we took out dog in luckily on a lead) The owner could tell we wasn't happy and went and got the hoover to suck the cobwebs up, put any powder down outside and starting trimming the over grown patio area. The owner also said over the weekend her husband would mow to make a path for us, it never got done. We couldn't sit outside or let our dog off the lead due to it being so over grown or our dog chasing the cat. One thing about the description that is right is it's in a good location, easy access to crantock beach and fistral beach.

  We had a lovely week at An Drowes in June 2023 and would highly recommend.

  The property was spotlessly clean upon arrival and we were very impressed with the quality of furnishings and facilities. Everything feels brand new! We also thought the hand written card and freshly baked scones upon arrival were a personal touch. Location is great for access to the town and beaches as well as exploring other areas of Cornwall. You also have lots of choice nearby for food as well as several supermarkets. The only downside to our stay (which was quickly rectified) is that we noticed on arrival that the hot tub water was green in colour rather than clear/blue with a very strong chemical smell. We didn’t think anything of this and also didn’t want to complain, but unfortunately after the first use two of our party had experienced a burning sensation and rash on their back and legs immediately after coming out of the water and after the second day and use we all had the same. We notified this to the owner and on the same day the hot tub water was replaced with crystal clear water and we didn’t experience any further issues. Despite the small issue as it was handled quickly and as it didn’t spoil our stay, we would highly recommend choosing this property and would revisit again in the future when deciding to stay in Newquay. Thank you for a lovely stay.

  We had a lovely time, clearly a great deal of time and money has been spent on making this holiday home into a great place to stay.

  Very modern, clean and tidy. We were very comfortable staying here. Shame about the area it is in as it is very run down, but it didn’t spoil our stay at all. A couple of things I think need addressing and that is when I stripped the bedding as asked before we left. there were no pillow protectors. This is a must especially with what we have all been through in the last year, also on the duvet itself, on both beds were some yellow stains. The mattress had a protective cover but they didn’t want this stripped off. I would say that needs washing each time. Also we were very lucky with the weather and spent time sitting outside on the outside furniture. There was a lot of dried bird droppings and would of been nice if this could of been washed down and brushed away. If you have an electric toothbrush take an adapter as there is no electric shaving sockets in the bathrooms. The owners left us homemade scones with cream and jam on our arrival and milk. Which I felt was a lovely touch. Also a card welcoming us with some great recommendations for dog walks. We felt very at home all week and the hot tub was a bonus and very relaxing. Thank for letting us stay.
