“So frustrating never being able to speak to anyone…tried for nearly 2 weeks in April/may…”

Susan April 2025

“Enjoyed the weekend in this beautiful house in a great location.”

Shirley March 2025

“Farlands was perfect for us, five friends on a painting holiday.”

It is so comfortable and roomy, very clean and well equipped. The only problem we had was before our holiday began. We had a question, and communication with Sykes was very difficult. No email address, no chatbot for any questions outside of their standards questions, a telephone number that will take bookings only.

- Shirley, March 2025

We are so pleased to hear that you had a wonderful painting holiday with friends and that you found Farlands to be comfortable, spacious and well equipped. Sorry to hear of the difficulty you found in contacting Sykes prior to arrival. We will ensure that this is escalated to the office and hope that we might welcome you again in the future.

“What a beautiful home in a great location.”

The quality of the furnishings and contents were good. Lots of space and loved the views. Having two dishwashers and wash area outside were very popular! The bathrooms were plenty and very clean but probably could do with an upgrade. Would definitely return.

- John, February 2025

“We thought the house was in a fantastic position , well maintained and all kitchen equipment provided was well thought out .”

Couldn’t have wished for more . The games room ,although a great place to hang out , now needs some attention . Darts were broken , and different games are incomplete . There were 10 people in our group and we had a couple of movie nights it would have been nice to have a couple more comfy chairs in the upstairs lounge as some of us had to sit on the floor . Overall a beautiful house to stay in and we would love to have a return visit . Thank you .

- John, October 2024

Mary-ann July 2024

“This is our second stay at Farlands and we loved it just as much this time.”

It is just the comfiest house with everything we could need. All the rooms are spacious and it is so well equipped. I love that there is an area by the front door where we can store stuff, and the utility room is a huge bonus. It makes such a difference staying in a house where there is proper space for everything and everyone, especially when the weather is less than perfect. All in all we had a wonderful stay and we love Farlands! Thank you

- Mary-ann, July 2024

Thank you for taking time to feedback all you enjoyed about Farlands. It is lovely to hear you have enjoyed a second visit to our home-away-from-home and we hope to welcome you again. The Owners, Farlands Property Owner

“Absolutely beautiful house.”

We have thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and will look forward to returning in the future.

Paul November 2023

“Our family of three generations had a wonderful holiday in Farlands.”

We chose Farlands because of its location and it looked good on the website. We were not disappointed when we saw the real thing. The house is absolutely perfect for large groups and had everything in it that we could possibly need. We would certainly consider coming again, perhaps in the spring or summer when we could make use of the terraces and balconies.

- Paul, November 2023

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are very happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed your stay, and that the property suited all of your needs. We look forward to hopefully welcoming you back in the spring or summer time - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

“4 generations of our family aged from 10 weeks to 78 years spent a fabulous week ...”

4 generations of our family aged from 10 weeks to 78 years spent a fabulous week at Farlands the house was beautiful clean and the views from upstairs lounge superb we hope to return next year

- Gillian, September 2023

It sounds like you all had a great family stay, thank you for sharing this with us. We do hope you choose to book with John Bray Cornish Holidays again. Property Owner
Dennise August 2023

“I was looking for a pet friendly property, this was advertised as so.”

But it was not. We have 2 tiny dogs and spent the entire time with them tied up when needed to go for a wee as the garden was not secure and the gate opened straight out onto a busy road. The grass was overgrown and only on Monday did the gardener turn up unannounced.The best room (lounge) is upstairs but dogs aren’t allowed up there yet there is not a stair gate? So again more stress keeping them downstairs (at home they are family pets and allowed everywhere in the house) and all of the doors shut. So as a family we didn’t use the garden at all. The back garden is concrete and not maintained, in fact we couldn’t use the washing line as was entangled with leaves and branches from the tree above. The games room only had one dart ? And on Wednesday August 16 there was a power cut from 9 ish until 6pm!! So much of our fridge food had to be thrown away. When we spoke to a neighbour they told us it was planned works. We then found a letter in the porch which envelope said in red bold writing “important information of electric disruption “( also addressed to occupier dated august 2) which said about the booked works although it stated on/off it was almost 9 solid hours. We should of been made aware as this was very inconvenient. We weren’t happy with the checkin/out times. In 4 pm and out 9.30 am. That’s a day lost. The house it self is lovely ,but with dogs it was not enjoyable. Had we of know we would of found a genuine pet friendly property.

- Dennise, August 2023

Thank you for your feedback and good to hear you found Farlands to be a lovely house. I am sorry to hear of the inconvenience you had with the planned power cut. John Bray were notified of this and it appears this was not communicated to you as guests. The garden is to the front of the house and the rear of the house is not advertised as additional garden space. We do try to ensure the grass is cut prior to a guest's arrival, but unfortunately the gardeners have had to work around the inclement weather with grass-cutting this year. The garden is fenced and gated with the addition of chicken wire to ensure the safety of dogs. Sorry to hear that you didn't feel that your two tiny dogs were secure. We are dog-owners ourselves and understand people want to enjoy beautiful Cornwall with their four-legged friends. Farlands is available to those with or without dogs, so we do encourage dogs to be kept downstairs for any guests with allergies. We hope that the large entrance porch and utility room provide ample space for dogs when the guests are enjoying the use of the upstairs sitting room. There is also the use of the downstairs sitting room, where dogs are allowed. We hope you continue to enjoy Cornwall with your dogs in the future wherever you choose to stay. Property Owner
Mary-ann July 2023

“Just the loveliest house.”

Everything has been cleverly thought out and beautifully done. Loved the hot outdoor shower leading straight into indoor wetsuit hanging area which made post surf chaos so much easier. Two dishwashers was also a game changer. It is so well equipped and so comfortable. We’ve been renting in Cornwall for years and this was the nicest house we’ve ever taken. Loved it.

- Mary-ann, July 2023

Lovely to hear you had such a fabulous stay at Farlands. Thanks for your positive feedback about all the house has to offer. We hope to welcome you back to Farlands if you visit the beautiful Cornish coastline again. The Owner. Property Owner
Polly Anne April 2023

“What a stunning house.”

Perfect for our big family get together over Easter, loads of space, beautifully decorated and so comfortable. We will be back!

- Polly Anne, April 2023

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Farlands near beautiful Daymer Bay. Thank you for your lovely feedback regarding the house and we hope to welcome you again. Property Owner
J December 2022

“Our stay at Farlands for Christmas was a great success.”

We really appreciated the Christmas tree. The only niggle was the absence of sharp knives or a knife sharpener, which made carving a bit of a challenge! Otherwise we had a wi deregulation stay.

- J, December 2022

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you had the chance to make the most of the local amenities! We appreciate you bringing the issue of lack of sharp knifes or knife sharpener. This will be investigated by our housekeeping team, promptly. We look forward to inviting you back to North Cornwall again soon. John Bray on behalf of the owner. Property Owner
Lisa October 2022

“Farlands is a great property which definitely feels homely, even though it’s clearly a large house.”

I’d definitely recommend this house.

- Lisa, October 2022

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. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner
Helena September 2022

“It’s an extremely comfortable and well equipped house and perfect for 8 adults.”

Thank you. Helena

- Helena, September 2022

Thank you so much for your kind words. It's great to hear that you had such a fabulous stay at Farlands and had the perfect base to explore the north Cornish coastline from! We hope to invite you back to North Cornwall soon. John Bray on behalf of the iowner. Property Owner
Douglas August 2022

“Overall it was brilliant.”

They place was very accommodating for large families and we found it a really nice place to return to after a great time at the local beaches. The only issue we feel we should raise was that the bed in the master bedroom looked as though there had been a change to the original headboard and that there dangerous spikes sticking out in line with your head. My wife got a bruise on her arm but it could lead to a serious issue for future guests. Otherwise a perfect place and we all really enjoyed our time there. Thank you!

- Douglas, August 2022

Thank you for letting us know, we are so sorry about this. This has been passed on to maintenance to resolve. We are glad you enjoyed your holiday and look forwards to you returning. Kindest, John Bray team. Property Owner
Felicity July 2022

“Beautiful stay at Farland, it is such a special house.”

The rooms are all good sizes and the kitchen is well equipped. We normally stay in Rock so Daymer Bay was a new location for us. We enjoyed some lovely walks and lovely cream teas. The farm shop down the road is limited but does sell the most delicious cake! I would highly recommend Farland, the garden is a bit small for young children to play in but families with teenage children would love this house!!

- Felicity, July 2022

Thank you very much for this feedback. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Farlands and Daymer Bay so much! We hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner
Stephanie May 2022

“A lovely well equipped house in a good location.”

Some of the doors upstairs could do with trimming, the lovely thick new carpet makes them hard to open; we couldn’t open one of the wardrobe doors in the upstairs twin room at all. The house description mentions a BBQ but we suspect it was locked in the garage; it was disappointing that John Bray didn’t get back to us about it having promised that they would. The only criticism we have is the late entry (4.30pm) and early departure time (9am) now many other properties have reverted to the pre-pandemic timings.

- Stephanie, May 2022

Thank you for your lovely feedback and good to hear you enjoyed your stay at Farlands in beautiful Trebetherick. The new carpets have been a wonderful new addition to the property and the cupboard doors upstairs have now been trimmed to accommodate the thicker pile. Sorry to hear you didn't have access to a BBQ and there is now a new kettle BBQ for guests use in the garden. Property Owner
Christopher April 2022

“Gorgeous house, wonderful views from upstairs living room over Brae Hill.”

Very well appointed. Would love to return. If looking for improvements - we would have loved to have an available BBQ. Thanks!

- Christopher, April 2022

Thank you for all your positive feedback about Farlands and it's lovely position. We think a BBQ would be a wonderful addition to the property and there is now a new kettle BBQ available for the use of guests. Property Owner
Debbie April 2022

“Absolutely brilliant week in Farlands.”

3rd visit. Superb weather helped. Loved the new kitchen and carpet. Farlands is so comfortable for all 12 of us, has everything you could possibly need. Thank you so much for letting us share your home.

- Debbie, April 2022

Thank you for your wonderful feedback about the new carpets, kitchen and how comfortable and spacious you found Farlands for your party of twelve. Lovely to hear you all enjoyed your time and found everything you needed. Property Owner
Claire April 2022

“Utterly luxurious property with loads of room .”

The only downside was that there were too few mugs/cups! Apart from this Farlands was amazing. We were very happy to spend our holiday here, especially after being let down on our previous booking the day before our holiday!

- Claire, April 2022

Thank you for your wonderful feedback about Farlands. I am only sorry to hear that there were not enough mugs for your party. There are replacement mugs stored in a locked cupboard. Perhaps I could suggest you contact John Bray in the eventuality that you find something similar again in the future. Super to hear you finally had a wonderful break, having been previously let down. Property Owner
Vernon July 2021

“I understand the reasons why, but the strict arrival and departure times have a big impact on both days at the beginning and end of the holiday.”

Being allowed to drop items early on the day of arrival (such as frozen food) and a slightly later (10am as it used to be?) departure time would greatly increase the enjoyment of those two days. I also understand why the cost of renting houses has increased. However, the owners need to understand that inflating costs bring with it inflated expectations of those renting their houses.

- Vernon, July 2021

Thank you for your feedback. I can hear you understand the reasoning behind the slighter later arrival time and earlier departure. The additional hour, either end, enables us to keep our housekeeping staff safe and allows for additional sanitising before the arrival of new guests. We want to ensure that our guests at Farlands have a relaxing, comfortable and enjoyable stay. At Farlands, we continue to upgrade, as necessary. A new kitchen was added in 2020/21, new garden furniture for the summer of 2021 and all carpets are being replaced this Spring (as with the pool table and dartboard). We hope that all our guests enjoy the new additions we continue to add and value your feedback. Thank you for the positive reviews on the comfort, cleanliness and facilities and we hope you had a wonderful stay. Property Owner

About the location

DAYMER BAY

Polzeath 1.3 miles; Rock 2.3 miles.

Daymer Bay and the village of Trebetherick were both loved by Sir John Betjeman and are unquestionably special. With a huge appeal to both the young and not so young, Daymer Bay has recently been voted one of the best beaches in the world! St. Enodoc Church, once buried in the sand, is within comfortable walking distance of Daymer Bay and is the resting place of Sir John Betjeman. Daymer Bay holds great appeal for wind surfers, kite surfers and paddle boarders, with the gentle waves rolling up the estuary. There is enormous fun too for small children with buckets and spades and fishing in the rock pools. At low tide you can walk across the sand to the village of Rock to indulge in a spot of retail therapy or a bite to eat at one of the many delicious eateries, or catch the short ferry ride and explore the delights of Padstow. Up from the coast path as it runs from Daymer Bay is Highcliffe, nestling between Polzeath and Trebetherick, both of which boast a number of pubs, restaurants and village stores all offering a wide variety of fresh quality produce. The properties at Highcliffe have the advantage of being within easy reach of Daymer, Polzeath and Greenaway - Greenaway being the name given to the clifftop area, beach and small cove with rock pools overlooking the Atlantic beyond that lies between Daymer and Polzeath.
