“John Bray sent me the wrong code and a map to a car parking space in Port Isaac, which we found out in the end we didn’t have access to.”

Thankfully because of the kindness of strangers, our neighbour told us the right code. We arrived on Saturday 21st August and the time we could get into the property was 4; so I called about the key code and was on hold for ages until there was no point. This was a nightmarish start to our holiday and we will not be recommended your company.

“We reported no wire grill tray in oven and were told one would be dropped off but it didn’t appear.”

Electric ‘log burner’ does not work and neither does the kitchen kick space heater- both are broken. I would recommend the washer/ drier is also replaced. The drier doesn’t even remove the slightest moisture and gets very hot when in use. The en suite bathroom window doesn’t close- a problem on a windy night. We did however really enjoy our stay at this otherwise well equipped cottage.

“Firstly, thank you for another wonderful holiday.”

We can't wait to return to Homelands in September for 2 weeks. The cottage is superb with everything we could possibly need. It's even better than last year now that bedlinen and towels are provided. The cleanliness is 10/10 and the position on Dolphin Street is fantastic. Love the little patio and with the fence you get all the privacy you need. We love the walk from Polzeath to Rock via Daymer Bay. Being National Trust members we make use of the Lundy Bay carpark and walk from there. The Rock Inn is a great place for lunch especially if you're lucky enough to get a table on the balcony looking out to Padstow. Boscastle is another favourite. A lovely little village with some great walks. Last September (when we first stayed in Homelands) we did the walk from Port Isaac to Port Quin via the coastal path. Phew. Great views and so many steps. Loved it though but we were pleased to be able to walk back overland. There are too many places to mention them all individually but how can I not mention Port Isaac. The jewel in the crown. I could easily live there. Such a pretty village with all the individual houses and steep windy lanes. Absolutely fell in love with it when we first arrived last year and feel the same now. Finally I work in Customer Service and just wanted to say a big 'thank you' to the team. Whenever I've emailed, phoned or called into the office everyone had been really friendly and helpful. I know how important this is from both sides. Thanks again and see you in September.

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: Access to Homelands is along a narrow cobbled path with steps up to the terrace so may not be suitable for people with mobility problems
