Guests say

Seven Bays House in St Merryn is praised for its excellent location, proximity to local amenities, and spaciousness. Guests appreciate the well-equipped property and ample parking, though one review mentions a need for decor updates and another reports an issue with flying ants during a hot spell.

The property is generally described as very clean and of a high standard, with one report of an ant infestation that affected the cleanliness during a hot period.

The location is highly regarded for being close to beaches, local shops, and eateries, with everything needed within walking distance and other attractions a short drive away.

The property is considered spacious and well-equipped, contributing to guest comfort. However, one review suggests the furniture and decor could be refreshed for enhanced comfort.

Facilities are generally well-received, with the property being well-equipped for guests. However, the mention of an ant infestation and the suggestion that some aspects require maintenance or updating lowers the score.

There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category.

About this property

Light, contemporary and spacious property, in the heart of St Merryn. Close to all of the seven bays beaches and walking distance to Rick Stein's Cornish Arms pub.

This inviting property is located in the heart of the popular village of St Merryn, making it a perfect location for families wishing to be near some of Cornwall’s most beautiful beaches. Enjoy stylish, contemporary living and your own private garden for al fresco dining at this wonderful home away from home.

Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac, the calming coastal interior welcomes you as you step inside. The sunny lounge offers plenty of comfortable seating for gatherings, and the open-plan dining area with doors opening onto the garden is linked to the well-equipped kitchen and utility room. The hallway leads to the master bedroom with a king-size bed and a sleek en-suite shower room. The second bedroom has zip-and-link beds that can be made up as a twin or super-king, the third bedroom has a double bed, and the fourth bedroom has 3ft bunk beds that children are sure to adore. The gleaming family bathroom completes the interior layout. Outside, the enclosed garden features lawns surrounding the property and a patio with outdoor furniture, perfect for dining alfresco.

The village is 3 miles from Padstow and is surrounded by ’Seven Bays,’ a collection of glorious sandy beaches, each with its own unique character. Harlyn Beach (1.3 miles) is a wide and beautiful beach, ideal for families and surfers, while Trevone (1.2 miles) offers a sheltered, sandy cove surrounded by high cliffs and a second, rocky beach to the west, perfect for exploring rock pools. Head to Padstow (3 miles), a picturesque fishing port with charming streets and famous seafood restaurants. For sea adventures, you can try a Sealife Safari, speedboat trip, or gentle pleasure cruise around the bay to spot seabirds and seals.

      Excellent bungalow in a prime position in the village. Roomy and comfortable and that's why we've stayed there on multiple occassions !

    • Mr Ashley

      Great laid out bungalow in a great location. However, decor and furniture in desperate need of washing/replacing. New flooring required but overall a lovely retreat in a great location that just needs a bit of love, care and attention.

    • Mr Reid

      Good location and good size bungalow. Well equipped for 8 people. Stayed for 1 week (27th July 2024) during hot spell & for 5 days had big problems with flying ants in 2 bedrooms & hallway that caused issues. Holiday Cottages reacted and tried to control infestation with additional traps ( already several traps in cottage) without success and wanted to spread powder internally in rooms. We were informed this would not be safe for children so declined this procedure. The ants caused us major disruption in evening as they were on beds, clothing & coming up through carpets from under the floor boards. Would not stay in property again
