“The cottage was lovely and putting a wc in upstairs was greatly appreciated.”

We were aware of the noise from the fan in the Mote restaurant across the road - which was initially quite intrusive but we got used to it. The windows and the outside of the cottage do not appear to be cleaned regularly that was a minor issue but it would be nice. We Love Port Isaac and will definitely be back. The dedicated car parking space was fabulous and much appreciated. We did have minor water ingress when it rained via the skylight in the utility room.

“There was no bin bag provided, arrived after the rubbish was collected on the Saturday morning.”

The outside of the property was filthy and clearly had not had windows or door cleaned for some considerable time. Entry into the property was unpleasant resulting in dirty hands and marks on clothes. The inside of the property was excellent, although there was a lack of wine glasses. The filming of Doc Martin was taking place outside the property and some indication that this was going to happen would have been helpful, to be woken at 6.30 and 6.45 am on two mornings and the noise and disruption with film crew stood in the doorway, in front of windows blocking out the light and cups of coffee on the widow sills I found to be unacceptable . When challenged about it the response was you should have been informed by the letting agency, although I feel the responsibility was with the film crew who could have put a note through the door and been a bit more respectful about access to the property. I would happily book the cottage again despite the difficulties.

“Lovely cosy cottage, we have stopped here before so we were aware of the extractor fan noise and smell from the Mote restaurant, the cottage has everything you will need for a great stay close to the beach and other amenities very clean with a great atmosphere, parking space is great at the top of the hill as you don’t have to navigate through the narrow streets as it does get busy during the day.”

Would definitely recommend this cottage to stop in but not if you want the sound of the sea between 9am and 11pm that’s the only negative.

“Lovely cottage in a wonderful location.”

Parking is fiddly if you have a large car, and there is a restaurant extractor fan opposite the front door that sounds like a jet engine from about 9am to 11pm - so would be impossible to open windows in summer. Water pressure is amazing, but don’t turn the shower on without holding the shower-head away from you! Only improvement would be some net curtains downstairs to stop people gawping at you.

Thank you for taking the time to feedback on your stay. We're very sorry that you had to experience these issues during your visit but hope you still managed to have a fantastic time. Your comments have been passed on to the team at John Bray Cornish Holidays. We hope to welcome you back to north Cornwall in the future. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner.

“Working with John Bray Cornish Holidays has really been lovely, thank you.”

It is rare (sadly) that one comes across an entire group of people who are patient, kind, and understanding—must be the fresh Cornwall air’! So, again, many thanks to all of you. I will see you all soon! (I can’t wait!)

The property

Oozing charm and character, Cloam Cottage is a traditional Cornish fisherman's cottage nestled right in the heart of Port Isaac on the North Cornwall coast. As its name suggests, this self catering cottage features an historic decorative cloam oven in the sitting room. Only seconds from the harbour, the cottage is surrounded with delightful restaurants, cafes, a pub and lovely shops. The property has the bonus of a private parking space a mere two minutes walk away. Sleeping 4 people in 2 cosy bedrooms, this is an idyllic place to stay and relax.Exposed ceiling beams throughout add to the historic feel, whilst the seaside decor brings a stylish modern touch. The smart slate-floored kitchen has everything you need to whip up a spread; then chill out on the comfy sofas in front of a roaring wood burner on cooler nights. Amble around the corner to the slipway with your cup of coffee or your glass of wine, or perch on the beach to contemplate the tide and the busy goings-on of the fishermen. Distinctive and unusual, Port Isaac is located at the foot of a steep-sided valley and is flanked by dramatic, breathtakingly beautiful cliffs and coves. This, together with the picturesque architecture and history of the village, makes holidaying here a fascinating and refreshing experience. From hiking the coast paths, or pottering about on the beach, to kayaking at Port Quin or surfing at Polzeath these are just some of the activities to keep everyone happy on holiday.Ground Floor: Sitting Room Kitchen/Dining Room Shower Room/WC Utility Room First Floor: Bedroom 1: Double Bed Bedroom 2: Twin Beds Separate WC Sorry No Pets.

About the location

PORT ISAAC

Polzeath 6 miles; Padstow 9 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. Only ten minutes drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike. There is ample parking at the top of the village.

Please note: The front door opens onto Fore Street which is the main street into the harbour. The property is opposite a pub which has a fan so could be noisy
