“We stayed at dolphins for 6 nights with 6 adults and 3 children.”

...

The property is a mixed bag. It can no longer be described as recently refurbished, now having some wear and tear, but overall leaves a nice impression. While we were there, some maintenance men turned up to fix an issue which must have been reported by the previous holidaymaker ( a broken doorknob) so clearly they are on top of it. The location is excellent and most things have been thought of such as dishwasher tablets and some toilet rolls to get you started. The beach is a 10min walk, but you can also park and pay with your phone or card. Daymer bay toilets are 40p to use. There is also a nice cafe there too. We have stayed at places costing less than this that will also have milk in the fridge, fresh bread from a local baker and stocked loo rolls, even some bacon for your first morning. Small things go a long way. While it is well appointed we thought it was missing a few things. There is no parasol for the table outside, only two sun loungers and the BBQ is too small for the likely number of people staying. We also could not find any table cloths to use on the cushioned protector that was in place. The lounge and master bedroom are very spacious, but other rooms quite pokey hard to manoeuvre around the beds. The driveway and general area has narrow dirt tracks so can be hard to get around especially if you have a larger car. Overall we enjoyed our stay and none of these things would prevent us from returning, just trying to share our observations and experience which are hard to see from the listing alone.

“Great location, short walk to beaches.”

Great views especially from bedroom balcony. Nice kitchen and lounge, only thing that let it down is lack of comfy seating outside especially for a five bedroom house. Only two sun loungers and a table and chairs. But overall a great place to stay and good value for money.

“Impressed by your day 1 courtesy phone call.”

We had one small maintenance problem which was then dealt with very efficiently after that call. Double beds are a little small, especially with the restricting bed ends. Property really needs an upstairs bathroom but appreciate this requires both planning and expense.

We're very sorry that you had to experience the maintenance issue during your stay but thank you for your patience and understanding whilst we sorted that for you.

“Dolphins was the prfect holiday accomodation.”

It was superbly equippped in an ideal location. The longe was huge and certainly large enough for the 7 of us. The outside area was great for the kids to play in and we all had a lovely time here.

- Steve, May 2022

“We had a lovely week at dolphins.”

The house is comfortable and has a fantastic location. It does need a little bit of maintenance, there are various screws loose and shelves / hooks that need fixing.

- Peter, April 2022

Thank you for taking the time to feedback on your stay. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and we hope to welcome you back to north Cornwall in the future. Your comments regarding screws and shelves have been passed onto the maintenance team to inspect and resolve. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

“The instructions to get to the property and the details were accurate.”

The living room and dining room were spacious to accommodate 7 adults and 2 kids. The bed in the single room and twin beds were very uncomfortable. The property also had extremely dirty water running through all the taps on the first day, resulting in us having to spend quite a lot on drinking water.

- Achin, December 2021

Thank you for your feedback on your recent stay at Dolphins. it is great to hear that you thought the living and dining rooms were spacious enough for the family, both of which have access out into the garden. We are sorry to hear that the water was discoloured which I know the maintenance team helped resolve for you within 24 hours and the owner has been made aware of the mattresses which they are considering to update. We have also checked the detail we send to guests ahead of arriving to Dolphins which has been refreshed and much easier to understand. - John Bray Cornish Holidays. Property Owner
