We loved the spaciousness and it was great to have both a family bathroom and On suite with plenty of room to move in. Added bonuses are storage in both of the facilities and shelves in the shower cubicles. The cleanliness of the property was second to none. Thank you to the owners for providing first class holiday accommodation.

Has everything you could ever need. Quiet location but with easy access to Newquay and A30. This was our second stay here and have already booked a third stay.
Lesley
Spotlessly clean and very well maintained. Equipped with everything you could need. Great garden with a good seating area and lots of outdoor play equipment provided. Although a great many slugs were enjoying the garden too. The only issue for us was the mattresses on the beds and the pillows. They were very firm. It caused a bad back all week for one of the party which resulted in a bit of a downer on the holiday. And another went and bought pillows to use for the stay. Realise this is very subjective and for others they would be completely fine.
