“Generally ok - nice views and easy to drive to other locations.”

We were a bit disappointed by the house - not very comfortable hard leather sofas and cupboards in kitchen smelled of damp. The drains need attention as sinks very slow to empty. The duvet was very lumpy and sweaty and I had to ask for a flat sheet to use under duvet. We were provided with another duvet cover and blanket which was much better. Need for more local info also - nothing about restaurants or taxis.

“We really enjoyed our stay.”

We liked the accommodation. The layout was good with the upside down side the Juliet balcony was lovely. The views are amazing. However, our journey in to the accommodation and finding you was difficult. The postcode was incorrect on one of our emails and it took us on a nice little jaunt through the town to a farmers field over the other side of Port Port Isaac to somebody else’s farm.He said it’s not the first time this has happened. The description on the email was accurate, but we were following the postcode, in the email unfortunately this led us to go to the wrong place. The cottage was nice everything was set up well getting into the property was good and easy with codes and keys ect. The information that was given prior to the holiday was helpful and supportive and made us feel prepared for a holiday in addition the pack of information inside with local things to do was useful. Some of the information was conflicting so in one information pack it said check out time was 9:30. Another one said 10. Another part said nine on a handout so there was different information about checking out we went with 9:30 we went with the email that we had been sent from yourselves.The cleaning equipment provided was great. More than adequate parking a great location for day trips out around Cornwall. A really good base to use for exploring Cornwall. Nice to have the animals outside the cottage was lovely. Unfortunately the bathroom did have mould on the door and in the shower and smelt damp and unclean. This was unfortunate as it did permeate around the lower bedroom.We recognise that there is no window in that room, and that doesn’t help with the damp, and that has intern made the door damp and mouldy. The fan stays on for a long time and I think this helps airrate but doesn’t adequately sort out the damp situation. And around the back of the toilet and tiles smelt of urine, so it could’ve done with a better clean. An air freshener was provided, but this did little other than add another smell on top of the unclean, damp smell. We are certainly looking to book with you again next year, a bigger accommodation and bringing the rest of our family to stay in the Rock. overall, we found the service from you as a company excellent. Very informative and efficient service from yourselves and with a few tweaks to accurate post code information and clean accommodation. It would’ve been 10 out of 10.

“Lovely place to stay really Lovely owners.”

Very dog friendly our Husky was made very welcome. We did find the road a little noisy at night while sleeping but we do live in a very quiet place down a lane. This did not effect our holiday in any way and would definitely recommend this place to stay. Would like to book one of the other cabins on the other side of the field.

“Listing copy said linens and towels were provided in the first section, further down it said towels weren't provided so we had to call to clarify.”

Check in and out times of listing said 3pm and 10am yet the owners details said 4.30pm and 9am, lack consistently was confusing and a tad misleading. Location and cottage were absolutely lovely and would definitely return.

Entering the cottage on the ground floor, you'll find two bedrooms; a double with an en-suite shower room and a smaller single room. On the first-floor, guests will find a bright and airy open-plan living area with comfortable leather sofas, a neat dining area and a kitchen with everything you'll need during your stay. On summer evenings, take dinner alfresco on the lawn - the perfect end to a long day of exploring all that this wonderful area has to offer. Note: This property can be booked with Refs. 1089243, 1089244, 1089246, 1089248, 1089251, 1089253, and 1089254, together sleeping up to 39 guests.

Trewetha Farm

Idyllically positioned on the grounds of the owners home on the outskirts of the quaint fishing village of Port Isaac rests this superb collection of holiday homes, Trewetha Farm. Comprising two stone-built barn conversions alongside six timber lodges, all laying adjacent to a small holding peppered with farm animals and framing unspoilt views over Port Isaac Bay and the surrounding countryside, Trewetha Farm offers the perfect base for a coastal retreat. Set across one level, each featuring a sociable open-plan layout, the six lodges are well-presented and comfortably furnished with both friends and families in mind. The two barn conversions host a quirky reverse-level layout to make the very most of the views from the open-plan living space, sure to be the social hub of the home. For special occasions, this fabulous collection of holiday homes share access to a 1-acre field, providing the perfect setting to enjoy the last of the evening sun, and for a more intimate escape, each property has access to their very own private patio with a neat picnic table. There's plenty to see and do from your doorstep, with two footpaths leading directly from the farm to the Heritage coast path, where the glorious sands of Polzeath, Daymer Bay and Rock can be explored; perfect for spending lazy days lounging amongst the sand. Be sure to pack your clubs and test your swing with a round of golf at the remarkable links course at St Enodoc Golf Club, or try your hand at coasteering or sea kayaking with expert tuition available on the waters of Port Isaac Bay. Television buffs will be delighted with a stroll through the streets of the picture-perfect village of Port Isaac, famed as the backdrop for the popular ITV television series Doc Martin. Get better acquainted with your surroundings and catch the ferry from Rock to Padstow where you can hire a bike and embark on an adventure along the renowned Camel Trail, toward the market town of Wadebridge, framing some of the most spectacular views in the county en route. The picturesque villages of Tintagel and Boscastle are both within easy touring distance and are well worth a visit. Whether you're looking for adventure or escape, Trewetha Farm offers the perfect base.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

Port Isaac; one of the true Cornish treasures.

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. There is ample parking at the top of the village and the village is a popular tourist destination with plenty of attractions including the dramatic Doyden Castle, the beautiful Lundy Bay and the famous Doc Martin's clinic. There are also plenty of pubs, restaurants, and shops in the village. Just a short drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike.
