“Nice pretty garden and cottage, and the owners have tried really hard to make it welcoming.”

... shame about the inconsiderate neighbours. The people in Hayloft played football with their children against the bedroom wall upstairs at 6.45am for 3 mornings and the nightmare family opposite behind the tall lelandii hedge screamed and shouted and played loud music until past midnight so we didn't sleep well or relax much. Maybe it's quieter during term time? The bathroom needs urgent attention, under the paint the wood around the bath and pipe boxing is rotten and stained. We were picking ...

Maybe it's quieter during term time? The bathroom needs urgent attention, under the paint the wood around the bath and pipe boxing is rotten and stained. We were picking small fungi off the skirting board by the toilet. Needs a decent king size double bed, and one of the single mattresses needs replacing. Oven is complicated to operate and we only found the manual by accident, some one had hidden it behind a saucepan! The site manager needs to paint the yellow car park spaces again so 4 cars can get onto the concrete in wet weather please.

I am sorry that your stay was spoiled by some noisy guests at the neighbouring properties over the August Bank holiday. The cottages at Tregwarmond Mill are normally praised for providing a very peaceful environment for guests. Thank you for your helpful feedback and in particular for pointing out the staining in the bathroom. We have taken immediate action to check this out and found a small leak had developed in a pipe close to the toilet which has now been repaired. The skirting board has been replaced and all paintwork made good. We have also displayed clear instructions to operate the oven close to the appliance for the convenience of our guests.

“Charming cottage with well kept grounds.”

Linens very clean. Oven not working, so meal preparation limited. Most things pulled out of cabinets had to be cleaned before using: wine glasses, cutlery and pans. Sat nav sent us into caravan park. No recycling bins, which is shocking after the Cop 26 was held there this year. called head office.

- Katherine, May 2022

Thank you for taking your time to provide us with your feedback. I am very sorry that you were unable to get the oven working. The oven was new in 2021 and the operation of the knobs can be a little complex. We will leave instructions in a more visible place for future guests. We will also ensure that our guests are given better instructions to find The Granary as we are aware that the postcode does not give the exact location. We wish to assure all of our guests that waste from Tregwarmond Mill is recycled at the depot by Biffa Collection Services. We have been told that only 4% of the waste from Tregwarmond Mill went to landfill in 2021. Property Owner

“The cottage was beautiful and really well laid out.”

The facilities were great and we couldn't fault the cottage for comfort, space upstairs and privacy. The courtyard garden was really convenient for drying wet suits and sitting out in the evening. Our main problem was the head height of the doors - 2 tall family members bumped their heads a few times coming in and out and the compactness of the kitchen/table area & bathroom - again a tallish family of 5 made it a squeeze to eat together or shower/use the loo without a struggle The only improvement we could see was that the cottage could do with a deep clean - areas behind the TV/lights/beds were very dusty and cobwebbed. Overall we had a lovely stay thank you

“The cottage was in a reasonable location, but we were familiar with the the area before arriving so that was fine.”

The draws in the kitchen were falling apart and that area needs a complete refurb before someone gets accidentally hurt on a falling draw. The directions to the place need to be clearer. Even when we rang, the person on the phone wasn’t completely sure. But otherwise it was fine for our needs, nothing plush, but at that price we would definitely consider coming back next year.

- Rohit, July 2021

We are sorry to hear that you had issues with the drawers in the kitchen and we will look into this as a priority. We have taken on board your feedback about directions to the house and we have now updated these. It’s great to hear you would consider coming back next year! Property Owner

“Great location central to visit lots of beaches.”

Accommodation had everything we needed. Perfect holiday helped buy the perfect weather

Thank you for your feedback. We are delighted to hear you enjoyed your holiday at The Granary! Property Owner
Bridget July 2021

“Overall The Granary is a well equipped property in quiet surroundings with a good location for many beaches and coastal walks.”

The postcode provided does not take you to the property or even that near to it so better directions would be helpful. The house smelt very damp when we first arrived but there were no actual signs of damp and the smell lessened considerably over the first day or so - perhaps better airing would help this. The beds were comfortable with good linen and towels provided. Parking was easy. We didn’t realise from The Granary advert when booking that there were other cottages around it as this is not shown - we thought it was just attached to one other property with nothing else near. We enjoyed our stay here - it was comfortable and has a lovely enclosed patio with seating at the back.

- Bridget, July 2021

Thank you for your helpful feedback. We have now updated the directions to ensure that it is straightforward for our guests to find The Granary. We are sorry that the property smelt damp on the arrival of guests when the previous week had been unusually wet and cold for July. The property is regularly checked for any signs of damp and appropriate work has been carried out over the years to ensure the cottage remains damp free. Property Owner

The property

The Granary is a delightful, spacious character cottage in a peaceful country setting within a small group of beautifully converted mill buildings, just 3 miles from North Cornwall's sandy beaches. This self-catering holiday cottage is a handy base for the many varied attractions, with Rock, Polzeath and Port Isaac just a few minutes drive away. With a private garden and patio area plus ample parking spaces and room for a boat trailer, the property sleeps 5 people in 2 bedrooms, perfect for a family. There is the addition of an outside shed for storage of equipment and a water tap for washing off sandy toes, wetsuits and dogs. Return from an exhilarating day on the beach to this tranquil spot off the beaten track. The homely and well-furnished open plan kitchen/living area has French doors to the garden; handy for alfresco family suppers and drinks on a warm day. The main bedroom has a cheerful double bed, while the generous second bedroom has 3 single beds; great fun for children to share. If the weather turns chilly, a modern flexible heating system will keep you warm and cosy.Perfectly located to explore the North Cornish coast, there is a choice of beautiful beaches to visit; check out Daymer Bay, its mellow sands are a safe and relaxed play haven for children. Swimming, paddling, dam-building across one of the little streams, hide and seek in the dunes - all make this beach a heavenly destination for young children. Head to Polzeath beach for a cool surfing vibe; surf schools and kit hire give you every opportunity to have a go; or just get in the sea for an enlivening swim or body-board. Those who don't want to get wet will appreciate long rambles on the coastal paths with awe-inspiring views over the cliffs and the Atlantic Ocean, or even trying their hand at tennis, golf, cycling and much much more.Accommodation: Open plan Sitting Room/Kitchen/Dining area with french doors to Garden Bedroom 1: Double Bed (4ft 6) Bedroom 2: Single Beds x 3 and ample space for a travel cot (not provided) Bathroom/Shower/W.C.
