As always doesnât disappoint. The house is in the perfect position to the town and beaches. Thereâs everything in the house that you need. You get a welcome pack with coffee, tea etc (please put a decaf option in). You can take 2 dogs with you which is perfect for us. My only negative comment is that the guttering is broke and when it rained it was very noisy pouring through.

Lovely 3 storey pet friendly house with a secure garden. Close to the beach which is ideal and also pet friendly. The house is clean and has got everything you need for a holiday. The owners are on hand if you need them for anything and nothing is too much trouble. Love the house. Love Newquay. See you in September.

Not the best. Other than that fine. Mattresses are a bit low budget and uncomfortable. Windows at front leaked badly. Albeit itcwas an exceptional storm.
