  Pebbles in Portreath is a fantastic property for people that holiday with dogs. We have stayed in many properties that accept humans and dogs. Pebbles works brilliantly for dog owners. The garden is totally secure, yep, totally. Very rarely even with properties that have an enclosed garden are they really dog proof. The garden is a very ‘clean’ area which reduces the amount of dirt that gets trampled in by dogs. The open plan living area with a sliding door to the outside makes it very easy to manage the dogs. If walking is your thing then you can enter the back garden by a side gate and hose down the dogs so they are clean before entering the property. Stair gates top and bottom ensure no rogue visits upstairs. We use gates at home so this was great to have in the property. There is plenty of room downstairs for our dogs’ crates without affecting the flow of the property so they can sleep how they are used to at home but our dogs are WCSs so crates for two labs might be a little tight. The human parts of the property have also been well thought out by the owners. The property is extremely well equipped. Plenty of crockery, cutlery and glassware. Some holiday rentals can be a little stingy but not at Pebbles. You could cook pretty much anything you wanted with the equipment in Pebbles. Here is plenty of space downstairs for a property of this size. The bedrooms are a good size and not cramped at all as can sometimes be the case with some holiday rentals. The welcome pack was very much appreciated. Especially the wine! Very nice touch. Croissants, milk, biscuits, tea etc all there for our arrival. The location of the property is very close to the harbour and beach but most properties in Portreath are. If Portreath is the sort of place you are looking for as a base for a holiday with your dogs you will not go wrong with Pebbles. One slight improvement, and it is the only thing I would change, would be a Dirt Trapper Mat by door to back garden for wet paws. We always travel with one anyway. We will certainly return to Pebbles in the future.

  The website was easy to follow and you could instantly see availability. Very clear. The whole booking process was great. In fact I asked if we could book another night (earlier than requested) and if we could arrive early too. My request was passed onto the owners and a very quick yes was made. I was then called. It was dealt with very effectively. The housekeeping staff were actually just leaving when we arrived. (Dropping off extra dishwasher tablets). We didn't manage to get there early, Leeds to Portreath was a long drive. They let us in and then left, saying if we needed anything to call them.DID THE HOUSE MEET OUR EXPECTATIONS!!!! WOW ..... above and beyond. The house was stunning, a wonderful family home that 'others' are allowed to enjoy. We we're so delighted to be able to stay there. Parking for 4 cars in that area. Fantastic. The downstairs space for washing and the table tennis went down a treat. The bedrooms were great with wonderful bedding and very comfortable beds. Fabulous showers and bathrooms. Then the views...... Wow, wow, wow. We hardly left the places. Everyday was an adventure just looking at the sea and beach. We loved the fact there was so many dishes, plates, knives and forks, glasses and cooking equipment making it a family home.WE LOVED IT !!!We will definitely book again.

  We stayed in the Rosebud House for a week and it was very pleasant. The place was very clean when we arrived and we had a lovely pamper box with tea, coffee, shortbread etc. which was so nice. Also few bits of cleaning products were provided. Although the house is small it was enough for 3 of us and had everything we needed. All kitchen stuff were brand new. When we arrived the TV wasn't working and was replaced within couple of hours!!! In the end we had a much bigger and better one. The service was so quick and helpful. The location is fine and not far from a shop, bakery, cafe, pubs and the beach. To improve the place it could do with less squeaky floors, more outside lighting as the outside seating area had none, the kitchen fan being installed more safely and the living room area lighting being less bright. It wasn't dimmable and was either very dark or extremely bright.

  A superb holiday home, on a quiet road in a great location. The house is very spacious, comfortably furnished throughout and well equipped. It was spotlessly clean and everything we could have wanted was supplied. The large kitchen has quality appliances and plenty of crockery and cutlery. Excellent Wi-Fi and mobile phone signal. The private decked terrace is huge and is ideal for eating meals outside, sunbathing or just relaxing and enjoying the view.The lovely beach at Portreath is an easy, level walk from the house. Food, drinks and ice creams are all available there. There is a good choice of supermarkets around Redruth and Camborne, both within easy reach by car. There are many other lovely beaches worth visiting, like Porthtowan, Gwithian, Perranporth, Hayle and St Ives.We have had two very enjoyable 5-night breaks there and would definitely go again!

  Thank you for an exceptional holiday at The Lookout we have already booked again for next year and hope to make regular trips to one of the best holidays we have ever had in Cornwall. The house was immaculate on our arrival and I nearly cried when I saw the views, never been anywhere like it. This house is absolutely amazing. It has the best views of any house we have ever stayed at in Cornwall, it is beautifully furnished and presented and we have already booked for next year and the year after that!! The housekeeping in the property was excellent and even during the stay the window cleaner arrived and carried out his duties. The property its self was truly one of the best we have stayed in. The Lookout is a fantastic property, we would definitely come back. The house was very clean and tidy and even our shopping was unpacked and put away.
