We had a wonderful stay at Gwithian House over the long weekend. The property was immaculately clean and perfectly accommodated 6 adults and 1 golden retriever. We really enjoyed making use of the kitchen, hot tub and cosy lounge. The area itself is very quiet and mostly residential/other holiday properties - so it's great if you're planning to drive to nearby villages, or up for a bit of a coastal walk. We visited Port Issac, Polzeath, Rock and Port Caverne over our 3-day trip. It was about an 18 minute drive to the nearest shop, and sadly the pub next door is permanently (temporarily?) closed, which we didn't realise upon booking. This didn't really affect us but is worth factoring a supermarket trip into your plans.The property is so beautiful and we will be keen to book again in the future. Thank you for having us!

Beautiful house in a wonderful part of Cornwall. Very close to port Isaac where we went crabbing. Rooms are very spacious with comfy beds. Lovely large dining and reception spaces for spending time together as a large group in the evening. Lovely kitchen and the cinema room was great for a chilled evening. Would love to come back again.

A fantastic house, spotlessly clean and beautifully presented. Highest quality throughout in every aspect and every detail has been thought through meticulously. Ample parking for three cars. Will definitely be back.
