  Not for the tall, not for the wide, not for those with mobility issues and not for dogs!

  However Great location, 45minute cliff top walk to Watergate bay and all that it has to offer, as well as only only a 10 minute walkto Porth beach and town itself! Peak season according to neighbours there are a couple of larger houses that are prone to party lets, these often can be quite noisy. Area itself is also known for frequent power cuts we had 3 in one night! The apartment itself was very clean and tidy the bed was reasonably comfy! However being honest I think this let is more suited to a single occupant whom is shorter than 5ft 9 and of a slighter build! to use the kitchen sink properly at 6’2 I had to open the velux window and stick my head out! (The window itself needs replacing as the double glaze is blown) to clean teeth in the toilet sink I had to kneel on the floor! Because of the slopped roof getting out of bed involved a commando style roll manoeuvre. The shower was only accessible sideways on and I’m of a slimmer build to many! The apartment isn’t really dog friendly with no garden, only a small balcony with a flimsy dog barrier (not fixed) which can be blown over in a mild wind the very steep steps meant we had to carry our Dog up and down! Also Because of the design privacy in the bathroom is an issue, even when your partner goes out onto the balcony because of the loo window, even there you can’t hide what you’re doing! Facilities were all there but washing machine and dishwasher were downstairs in a separate location so never got used! No ironing board, table is glass so can’t use that, so the floor or bed is only option! (Not good for packed clothes) Top tips if you’re staying here! Take coffee pods take a couple of sharp knives as the ones supplied are useless! Take a washing up bowl! Take some board games and torch and a couple of battery packs to keep your phones charged! It did the job for us! It took a couple of days to adjust to the place in my opinion just needs a re design refit

  The property was exactly as described and was full of high quality furnishings and items throughout.

  Some lovely touches such as the scones and cream on arrival and the picnic basket and binoculars, although we had taken our own as I enjoy watching activity out at sea. The blankets were really useful too as although it was lovely and sunny, it did get a little chilly when the sun was setting so these were handy to wrap up in. It’s on the 3rd floor which was a struggle on the first day with the luggage but absolutely worth it and no problem for the rest of the week. Really close to supermarkets and the town centre with everything in walking distance and close to some lovely places to eat. The bed in the main bedroom was so comfy, we both slept soundly for the whole week, annoyed at myself for not seeing which make of mattress is on the bed! Kitchen well equipped with all that you would need with lovely crockery and glasses, again very evident of the high quality. If I was going to have to say a negative, and this would be me just being very bloody picky, the toilet stand in the en-suite was corroded and the seagulls leave a lot of deposits on the furniture on the balcony. Cushions are provided which we used but brought in when not in use to prevent further deposits landing. There was also plenty of cleaning equipment and products so we gave everything a clean down but being on a cliff top the inevitable is inevitably going to happen. This did not spoil our stay at all but thought I’d mention it for anyone who may not appreciate our feathered friends. We loved this place so much with the views and the sunsets we didn’t want to leave and will definitely be looking to book again. Thank you Rebecca and Denise.

  On the whole the property was ok but there are a few things that need addressing. There is no information file in the property so had to text for Wi-Fi password, usually this would be in the file along with local information, departure information and requirements for bins, bedding and towels, also fire and emergency procedures and safety certificates. In the small double room the bed is not big enough for 2 average adults to have a comfortable stay, our feet touched the kick board at the bottom of the bed and we are not overly tall, also the shower in this room is far too small, not enough room to even bend down and pick up soap without burning yourself on the shower pipes. There are also no drawers to store clothes, only a hanging area. Kitchen was nice but there are no cupboards to store food as they all had pots and pans in them, also needs a toaster. The car parking at the back of property is VERY tight and you would struggle to park there if you had a large car, could also do with a sign to say which property the space is for like the other adjoining properties, also there was quite a lot of animal feaces in the parking area. Good points are the location, close to town so short walk to local amenities and close to the beach. A good sized property for a family get together or larger family.

  The apartment is clean and modern with all the facilities you need for a great holiday.

  The views over Towan Beach are wonderful. The secure parking is a real bonus! **The housekeeper Denise deserves a special mention. The boiler stopped working late evening so no hot water. We messaged her at 10pm and next morning she arranged to be round before 8am to sort the problem and ensure we had hot water to start the day. Thank you again to our star plumber! What stopped it being a 5* holiday? The bed in the main bedroom is described as a king size ( made up of twin beds connected) The bed are small singles giving the width of a king size but only standard length reduced by a thick wall mounted headboard and as someone 6’3” tall this meant an uncomfortable sleep with dangling feet. We knew it was height of the season and expected some noise but the apartment is within 100 metres of two bars/pubs playing loud music to 2am or later and the associated noise from revellers thereafter. We tried earplugs but had to close all windows to keep noise out leading to uncomfortable/ difficult sleeping conditions.

  Could be a little gem, but its lacking in some areas.

  Reasonable walking distance to porth beach. The nearest beach has been closed for over 2 years. The kitchen window has blown and the blind needs replacing. Shame you cant see the view. The washing machine and dish washer are in the garage underneath the flat. Also shared with another rental. Sofas were confortable and nice countryside views from the deck. The deck could do with a gate as the stairs would be dangerous for pets and toddlers. The board ptovided just blows down.The duvet was a double on a kingsize bed, not very good when cooler nights. Not much cutlary or usable kitchen plates etc You will need to bring binbags, sharp knife. The small freezer compartment was in urgent need of defrosting (quite a build up). No niceties like a welcome guide tothings in the ares or milk to get you started either. Its a shame as it has great potential.
