“There are some great aspects about The Point.”

The position. The brightness of the 2 reception rooms, the view from the first floor and comfortable furniture in the receiption rooms. Also a really well equiped kitchen and fantastic fridge/freezer. Easy to cook in there. A happy place. But, we feel this property is only just hanging on to its 4 star rating. In 2025 your towel rails should either run on electricity or on the hot water circuit. It was mild and very very wet during our week. So, it was impossible to dry any towels without putting on the central heating! We had wet towels for days. This is crazy. Plumbing has moved on from when this was ok. The main bathroom is also in a really poor state for a house of this calibre. The cartridge is broken in the shower, so it dripped constantly for 7 days, 24 hours a day. The water splashes way into the room and under the towel rail (why no shower door?). The shower cubicle is not a wet room. This means the whole room was incredibly damp. The mould that has built up under the towel rail (from the dripping shower) is shocking. Being in the main bathroom was very rather grim. Grey days, constant rain and damp bathroom. The electician has also fitted Low Voltage downlighters designed to have the light bulbs set very very deep inside the fitting. (Mood lighting). Totally inappropriate for a room where you actually want to see things. So no matter how bright the light bulbs actually are, you will never get decent light in that bathroom. These fittings need to be replaced with a better designed fitting or the number increased by double so you can see at night. Its gloomy and depressing. The mould growing around the top of the bath was another big minus point. Just not good enough or clean enough. Please note the shower was reported as broken by another holiday maker and no one has fixed it. Why?A plumber can do this in a couple of hours. Our suggestion would be that money urgently needs to be spent to upgrade the main bathroom, mend the shower, put on a shower door so water is not splashing around the floor when someone showers. Remove all the mould, and sort out the towel rails generally so you can have warm towels with out turning on the central heating.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I have passed this information on to our maintenance and housekeeping team to ensure that all the points you have mentioned are actioned for future guests. I have also made the owner aware of your recommendations should they wish to action these over the winter months. - John Bray Cornish Holidays, responding on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

“Thank you very much!”

We had a lovely stay, and had everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed the property, especially the views, and the proximity to the beach. We were very comfortable, and the property was very clean, with nice bed linen and towels, and we were well supplied with loo-roll, soap, cleaning sprays, dishwasher tabs, coffee pods etc. We loved the new decor. Please would you arrange for the dripping ensuite shower to be fixed, as even if fully turned off, it dripped noisily all night, and the temperature control was poor, being either scalding hot, or luke warm. The left hand oven did not heat up to temperature even after 20 mins and therefore couldn't be used. A second sofa (or ideally an L-shaped sofa) upstairs would be fabulous as the grey chairs were not hugely comfortable, and this is the place we most wanted to hang out in because of the views. Thank you so much. We hope to return next year.

- Sarah, October 2024

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and would love to welcome you back anytime in the future. All suggestions/comments can be viewed by the property owner so these are appreciated. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

“Having stayed at The Point 14 years ago when it was immaculate we were disappointed to see how it had deteriorated in terms of the following: 1.”

Unable to regulate temperature of showers which were scalding hot and dripped. 2. One of the ovens we could not get up to temperature to cook with. 3. TVs didn’t work 4. The property was generally in need of renovation. 5. Fridge freezer doors and handles along with some of the utensils were grubby and had to be washed before use. This was a shame as we had been so impressed with the property during our previous stay which was why we chose it again.

- Annette, September 2024

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused by these issues. The decor as a matter of fact was recently refreshed with some high end wallpaper and some other refreshments have been carried out also. Your comments have been passed on to the team here at John Bray Cornish Holidays to inspect and rectify. The oven does heat up, it can just take a bit of time to get there! The shower now fixed and the cleaners have had this feedback given to them. We only wish you informed us of these issues whilst you were here so we could have helped! - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

“We have enjoyed our stay at The Point.”

The setting and views were spectacular . Kitchen was very well equipped and had everything we needed . The beds were comfortable and linen clean and fresh . It is a perfect distance from the beach and the outside space worked really well. The Annex shower was blocked but was sorted and the hot weather eventually dried it up. Like other guests have mentioned it was frustrating to not find hand soap we have left some in place for the next guests . We have enjoyed our stay Thank you

- Wendy, August 2023

We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay, especially the views and facilities. We do hope that we get the opportunity to welcome you back to Cornwall in the future. John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner
Polly August 2023

“The house was so comfortable, warm and welcoming with the most amazing views on both sides!”

My perfect spot was on the sofa in the kitchen/dining room area looking out at the sunsets over the water. The house has clearly been redecorated recently and is better than the pictures! The position was perfect - so close to the beach, shops, bars and restaurants in Polzeath. My only negative comment is that the water didn't drain very well at all from any of the showers in the ensuite bathrooms, and very quickly turned into soggy paddling pools. We loved our stay at The Point and will definitely be back!

- Polly, August 2023

We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at The Point, especially those views and its location ! Thank you for letting us know about the showers, we will get these looked at.

“We really enjoyed our stay at The Point.”

It was a great location and well laid out house. We loved the upstairs kitchen/diner with fab views on all sides. It was a great outside area, with lovely garden furniture.We appreciated the excellent quality sheets and towels. There are very few negatives, but the listing didn't have quite enough info eg, is there a BBQ , Nespresso machine, parking for how many cars? It was appreciated to find there was a BBQ and coffee machine, but I would have brought charcoal and coffee pods if I had known. I also have never stayed in a house without a single bar of soap, shower gel, or washing up liquid provided! It would have been a nice touch to have some, and a bit more loo roll too! There was no easy way of contacting the company to report any minor faults, for example it was difficult to control the water temperature in the shower (ran too hot) and the kettle trimming was coming off.

- Sarah, August 2023

Thank you so much for your feedback - it is really helpful and you make some really valid points re information re BBQ and Nesspresso. We will take that onboard. Separately, we are so surprised and apologetic re soap, fairy liquid and loo roll. Completely unacceptable. I will take this up with the management company. Cindy Owen (the owner) Property Owner

“Well equipped and a great location.”

Views across the bay were fabulous. Would definitely recommend. Only niggles were the lack of an information book and the ridiculously stiff and awkward door knobs on the downstairs rooms. Not great for arthritic hands.

- Vanessa, May 2023

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay at The Point, we will report these issues to maintenance and get them sorted. We do hope to welcome you back to North Cornwall again soon. John Brays on behalf of the owners. Property Owner

Lynne August 2021

“We had a fabulous 2 week holiday at The Point which was helped by glorious weather.”

The house has all the facilities we needed and although there are few normal “wear and tear” issues that I am sure will be dealt with, our multi generational family and friends enjoyed every moment. The annexe really does help with creating more space and privacy and the kitchen/diner really helped our group conversations and deliberations over the summer quiz!

“Great place with plenty of space for 8 people.”

Light and airy, fully functioning kitchen with all you need to feed 8 people. Great little annexe for those that need a more private space. Lovely garden.

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.

Please note the King size bed in bedroom 1 has a Superking duvet. The twin rooms are made up as single beds, if you require these to be configured differently and made into superkings, please contact us at least a week before your stay.
