  I stay at The Bay at least twice a year for at least a week each time, and have done for many years.

  I’ve stayed in many properties there, but of all my stays this was probably my favourite. The property is lovely, warm, and cosy but spacious. It has good WiFi (key when working away) and smart TVs in each room. Its location is great, right in the middle of the beach and the park facilities. The property has its own parking space at the front of the house, great when you’re staying a while or just like to pack a lot! The property had a small Christmas tree and some small festive touches, and came with a lovely welcome gift pack, a really beautiful touch. I can think of no cons, one recommendation may be to install a baby gate at the bottom of the stairs (I’ve had this in previous properties and it’s great to stop kids and dogs running up and down the stairs) but wasn’t essential. Overall a really lovely stay, I’d highly recommend and will most likely look to stay there again on one of our return trips.

  Lovely place, conveniently located near the Bay amenities and 10 minute walk from the beach.

  Great little welcome pack with bread, jams, eggs from local shop. Well thought out for babies and toddlers, with a high chair, cot, stool and toddler toilet seat. Plenty of cupboard and drawer space for unpacking. The bed was very comfortable. Unfortunately there was dog hair on a couple of the pillows in the main bedroom, so we swapped with pillows from the other bedroom. The shower was nice and powerful! However the owners may want to consider getting a slightly larger shower screen as the water does get past, we can see it has already caused some damage on the floor. Hand towels for the bathrooms would be a nice addition. Unfortunately the property wasn’t as clean as I expected, but that can easily be resolved with a deep clean and wouldn’t stop us coming back. Overall a nice property in a great location!

  From the minute we walked into the cottage we knew it was incredibly well looked after, it smelt fresh and was perfectly clean throughout.

  The kitchen was superbly well equipped and I was happy to have cleaning products to use over the course of our week just to maintain the high standard. We have been visiting The Bay for years as we love being so close to the beach. It was lovely to spend a week in such a well cared for cottage as we have not always had that experience on previous visits (properties booked directly through The Bay). My only criticism would be the parking, it wasn’t clear which 2 designated parking spaces belonged to this cottage, it seems people just park where there is a space but to be fair we had only travelled in one car and we were usually able to park right outside or close to the cottage. I would happily recommend this property based on the cleanliness, facilities & location.

  Morning, this is the second time we have stayed at 2 Perran Court.

  On positive, owners rectified issue with insufficient towels within 12 hours. The surfaces in kitchen, kitchenware and kitchen appliances were clean. What let it down: General decoration of the cottage was poor. It was difficult to tell if the wall was marked by people missing the bin or marks where paint had been wiped off. This was the same when we visited 2/3 years ago and comment was made by another occupant. The bathroom smells of stale mash potato and there is brown residue on the rubber seal on shower screen. Also black mould on tiles. We enjoyed our holiday, but I wanted to give feedback for the owners to be aware that this could be the cleaning company. This is not a one off. Also just a fresh lick of paint would make the whole experience more enjoyable.

  We stopped last year and it was fantastic, this year we were expecting the property to be the same and have the same experience, but unfortunately in some areas it was poor.

  On arrival we had no arrival treats as previous - although they did arrive the next evening. The property was not that clean, i had to go around and clean several areas as they were black with hand prints - Banister and nearly every light switch, the skirting is pretty grubby in places and that really doesn't bother me that much and is expected, but not where we touch. The bedding was also strange the bottom sheet was not designed for the bed and subsequently did not fit, woke in the morning wrapped in the dammed thing. Overall we had a great week, just think that the owners need to take the property off hire for a week and bring it back to a better standard.
