“It was a really lovely bungalow, freshly decorated with a nice modern feel.”

The beds were very comforable, the kitchen well equiped, plenty of seating in the open plan sitting room/kitchen area. The bungalow was really clean. We could wheel the beach wheelchair between the bungalow and the beach, so the location suited us very well. The highback chairs were perfect for my mum (with mobility issues), we brought one of them in to the sitting room area from the porch. The drive could easily fit our Transporter van and large hatchback on. The porch was really handy for ...

The beds were very comforable, the kitchen well equiped, plenty of seating in the open plan sitting room/kitchen area. The bungalow was really clean.

The highback chairs were perfect for my mum (with mobility issues), we brought one of them in to the sitting room area from the porch. The drive could easily fit our Transporter van and large hatchback on. The porch was really handy for keeping all the beach paraphernalia out of the way. The only minor thing that could be improved on is that the shower is a bit on the weak side and the cottage was a bit overpriced. Importantly, we were very comfortable in this bungalow and had a lovely week.

“Brookside was the most perfect house for our family holiday.”

Situated near the beach and shops. The house was exceptionally clean, tidy and well equipped. We couldn't fault it in any way.

“The quality of the cottage internally was very good.”

Clean, modern and well equipped. Lacked a little clothes storage space, but this was not a problem. Externally the garden could do with some work, the garden gate needs repairing. Again this was not a problem and we enjoyed pleasant evening BBQs.

“We had a great stay at Brookside, the location is fantastic being so close to the beach.”

However the whole affair was let down but a few key things. We arrived to not a single loo roll in the property, luckily we'd taken some with us for those of us who needed to use the facilities before getting to a shop but other holiday makers might not be so prepared. There were loads of items dirty or broken and we had to send a huge list to John Bray. We cleaned everything that was dirty and John Bray sent someone out to fix most of the bits that were broken/damaged but some items were still outstanding when we left. I only hope that they managed to get everything sorted before the next holiday makers arrived. Our mid-stay linen change had some items missing so we had to call the out of hours number to get replacements. There were also some core items missing that would have made our stay a lot less stressful. An iron, ironing board, laundry basket and clothes airer for when it's wet outside would be beneficial and a lock on the bathroom door saving us all from having to sing while in there would also be a grateful addition! As I said, a lovely holiday all in all but could have been so much better, especially with the inflated price such a property demands in these post-covid days.

Thank you for your feedback, we are so sorry for the inconveniences caused during your stay. This has been passed onto the maintenance team who have dealt with the issues raised and housekeeping have been notified of the lack of toilet roll. We do hope you were able to enjoy your holiday and hope to welcome you back to the North coast in the near future- John Bray Team. Property Owner

“Brookside has a fantastic location being so close to the beach.”

Property was clean and fine internally. Bathroom ceiling needs a bit of repair. The garden at the back.and around the front of the property needs a serious trim. We couldnt access the upper part of the back yard to it being overgrown.

We hope you still managed to enjoy your visit despite these issues and would love to welcome you back to North Cornwall in the future. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner.

“When we stayed the property had only recently been refurbished.”

The quality of the kitchen and bathroom fittings was excellent and the kitchen was incredibly well equipped, loads of cutlery, china and kitchen utensils, as well as a small wine fridge! The furniture and soft furnishings all seemed very new, as was the bed linen and lovely fluffy towels. The proximity of the property to the beach and the South West Path is a big plus point.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a great feedback. Look forward to seeing you again very soon. Property Owner

“This is the second year we have used John Bray and we were again thoroughly happy with our choice.”

Brookside is a charming, comfortable cottage, and in a great location for hitting the beach and exploring the numerous coastal walks. Lovely little garden too. Will definitely stay again!

The property

A stone’s throw from the surfing hub of Polzeath beach, Brookside is a retreat where you can park up, settle in then head straight for the waves. Set on a private road, this 3 bedroom self catering holiday home is a fantastic and welcoming bungalow for family and friends from which to base yourself and explore the area. Newly renovated throughout with fresh, stylish decor, Brookside offers an attractive open plan kitchen, lounge-diner where everyone can meet and socialise together. With modern facilities designed to make cooking convenient and enjoyable, the shaker style kitchen includes a breakfast bar where your guests can sit the other side and chat as you rustle up a quick breakfast before hitting the beach. In this large, airy room, patio doors mean you can open up the room to the side of the house to let in light and so you can step straight outside. In hot summer months, the fresh sea air can flow through here and create a lovely breeze through the house. The lounge area and front window seat allows for everyone to be close, while having their own areas to either sit and read, watch TV or simply play games and catch up. If you simply wish to curl up in a chair with a good book, the porch area at the front of the house lets you sit in front of the picture windows and do just that. The subtle, coastal style has been carried through into the bedrooms which are well furnished and relaxing, with the attractive prints on the soft furnishings standing out against the warm hues on the walls, creating a restful environment and giving that seaside ambiance. After rejuvenating yourself with a good night sleep in the comfortable beds, you can refresh in the cosy shower room. If you want a little privacy away from the world before starting the day, the outside two-level courtyard which can be accessed through the front gate or the back bedroom is the perfect place to relax at the table with your morning coffee; a suntrap through the day as the high sides protect it from the coastal breeze. Whether you want to hire a surfboard and learn to catch the waves, take the family to the beach for the day or hike the South West Coastal Path north towards Pentire Point and the Rumps, Brookside offers the ideal location to be able to do all of these on foot. South of the main beach at Polzeath you can potter along the coastline past the rock pools of Greenaway beach to the windsurfers paradise of Daymer Bay, where the gentler waves lap the shore and provide all the fun little ones need to paddle in. From here, you can walk to the historical St. Enodoc Church which was once completely covered in sand from the dunes through St. Enodoc Golf Course and for breath-taking panoramic views of the Camel Estuary, up Brea Hill; we can assure you that the short uphill trek will be worthwhile! Just around the corner in Rock, further activities await you such as water-skiing, sailing and paddleboarding. If the slower pace of life suits you, whether in Polzeath or Rock there are plenty of restaurants and cafés to treat yourself to all the Cornish fare they offer while looking out across the glistening water.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

About the location

POLZEATH

Wadebridge 7.5 miles; Padstow 16 miles.

The seaside village of Polzeath boasts a sandy beach, which is bordered by rock pools and is acclaimed to be one of the best surfing beaches in the country. Polzeath itself has a number of small shops, cafes and restaurants, and the South West Coast Path, a 630-mile route, runs through the village. Just over seven miles away is the popular market town of Wadebridge, which is set alongside the River Camel and offers an array of shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as North Cornwall's only family-owned cinema. There’s wonderful countryside in the area, with the renowned Camel Trail passing through the town, and the nearby town of Padstow, with its harbour, pastel-washed medieval houses and celebrated restaurants is well worth exploring. Within driving distance is the UK surfing capital of Newquay, with over 11 miles of golden sandy beaches. Polzeath is an excellent base for exploring this part of Cornwall.
