The property was spotless and all credit must go to the cleaner. We visit Cornwall 3/4 times a year and found this property to be the best we have stayed in. The only issue was that the lift was not working and we were not warned of this and it was not repaired during our stay.

Mother enjoyed the biscuits, chocolate and prosecco , and the apple juice was very nice, thank you. An over abundance of marvels around every corner ! A very good selection of cookware, it was quite a joy to use the kitchen. The beds were super comfy, loved the top sheet ! So few places use them these days. The telescope was a fun way to waste a few minutes, hours, from time to time, and Netflix was much appreciated. We didn't get as far as the PS4 but the boardgames were welcome. The balcony seats, with those super soft cushions was a delight, we ate out on it a couple of tones, and when it got a bit chilly we Popped ot inside just by the doors to get the best of both. All in all one of the best places we've stayed.
