  Both pros and cons to this cottage! One of the twin mattresses was awful and needs replacing immediately, it creaks and groans and you can feel every spring. It was really uncomfortable & noisy! Under the twin beds hadn’t been dusted or mopped. Pans are no longer non stick & should be replaced. Bed runners (twin) were dirty and hadn’t been cleaned between guests. Pills (twin) are flat & need replacing. Double bed was too short for a man of 6’ 2”. However, the cottage is excellently located, a 16-minute walk to Padstow town centre. It was very convenient to have parking spaces as parking in Padstow itself looks a nightmare. We had a delivery from Sainsbury but there is a Tesco up the road. Hob is induction which is far better than the electric you find in most holiday cottages! Plenty of plates & glasses etc although we had to wash them on arrival. Lots to do in Padstow, it’s a really good location for a couples or family holiday. We also did a 5km walk from the town, and walked to St George’s Cove, from the cottage. Just be warned, if you have a child, every stair & upstairs floorboard creaks; it was impossible to ‘creep’ out having got my daughter to sleep without waking her. There is a downstairs single but it’s right next to the lounge area so not great for noise, plus from a safety perspective I don’t like having a child downstairs with adults upstairs. All in all, a decent stay, but could have been so much better with a few small tweaks and a bit more care, especially considering what it cost.

  The property had a terrible smell of wee coming from the downstairs bedroom which wafted into the lounge. I slept in that bedroom and it was horrible. It was clearly a child’s room with a very basic mattress but not described as one when booking. The sofas were also very uncomfortable and offered no support at all as they just collapsed when you sat on them. My back was constantly hurting. Lovely kitchen area and the rest of the house was ok except for the cleanliness which lacked a lot. Investing in decent mattresses with protective covers and proper sofas would make all the difference. My Mom who is 89 was going to use that downstairs bedroom and I had to help her upstairs every night proved a big problem for us. I would book again but next time would ask more questions about the property before I booked online!

  We’ve stayed at several properties in the Sarah’s View area through Original Cottages and I’m sorry to say that this one wasn't to our standards. The living room area was absolutely fine and the kitchen adequate, however the microwave and clothes airer needs attention, it was unclear whether the washing machine had a dryer function. Upstairs however there was a musty smell, we found the double mattress uncomfortable, the bedside lighting only worked on one side in the double room, we felt the sheets felt cheap and scratchy like hospital sheets, the shower head leaked and therefore the pressure was low, and the toilet began blocking as soon as we arrived. We were grateful for the rapid fix of the blocked toilet. We won’t be returning to this particular property though.

  Please use my comments detailed above and I also want to say how loyal your staff are who have gone that step further to accommodate us at short notice. The first year we rang after an unexpected bereavement and your staff helped find us a special place within just a few days. This year we took advantage of being repeat guests at Cowslip Cottage, only to be then invited to a surprise party on the Isle Of Man. Your staff were so helpful and moved the week we had originally booked, to our choice of future dates available. I would not need to go to any other holiday company as Cornish Horizons is 10/10 for us.
