    “Wonderful location with the most amazing views, however the whole property just needs a little TLC.”

    It was cold and damp when we arrived , the windows in the front room all need replacing as obvious gaps in them all, the curtains did not close properly in the bay window due to the hooks being broken off, the sofa and chairs were dirty and an infestation of woodlice in the chair closest to the kitchen door, the carpet was also dirty. Some kitchen cupboards did not fit and felt a little unsafe when opening them. There were tiles off in the main bathroom, probably due to the shower screen ...

    It was cold and damp when we arrived , the windows in the front room all need replacing as obvious gaps in them all, the curtains did not close properly in the bay window due to the hooks being broken off, the sofa and chairs were dirty and an infestation of woodlice in the chair closest to the kitchen door, the carpet was also dirty. Some kitchen cupboards did not fit and felt a little unsafe when opening them. There were tiles off in the main bathroom, probably due to the shower screen leaking everytime we had a shower and required mopping up the pool of water. All of the above being said this is a gem of a property just needs a little in the way of maintance, neither myself or my friend were too bothered by these little quirks and issues and had a wonderful time, exploring the local area, and coming back to our little cottage by the sea. To be greeted by the cows in the neigbouring field, rabbits on the lawn and plethora of birds and wildlife sharing our morning cup of tea on the front patio. Despite the above comments ( just feedback) i will be returning and dragging my husband ( this was a girly break) with me to share the delights of this wonderful area of Cornwall, in a well equipped but not perfect little cottage.

    - Kirsty, June 2024

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay in Maylands and would like to return with your husband. However, we are sorry that you encountered these maintenance issues, your comments will be raised to our maintenance team to look into these points further. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

About the location

PORT ISAAC

Polzeath 6.5 miles; Padstow 16 miles

Port Isaac; one of the true Cornish treasures. A beautiful fishing village nestling in a steep sided valley, the old village in the valley remains unchanged from its days of fishing, slate export and smuggling in the previous century. An abundance of small character properties complemented by larger cliff-top retreats, can be found with easy access to the numerous restaurants and shops of the village. The sandy harbour provides an abundance of rock pools as the tide retreats. There is ample parking at the top of the village and the village is a popular tourist destination with plenty of attractions including the dramatic Doyden Castle, the beautiful Lundy Bay and the famous Doc Martin's clinic. There are also plenty of pubs, restaurants, and shops in the village. Just a short drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike.
