Reviews indicate a mix of experiences regarding cleanliness. While some guests found the property clean and tidy, others reported issues with outdoor areas, kitchenware, and general upkeep. The inconsistency leads to a slightly above-average score.

The property's location is highly praised for its proximity to local attractions, restaurants, and the beach, offering fabulous views and convenience, making it an exceptional choice for visitors.

Guests generally find the beds comfortable and the property spacious, contributing to a pleasant stay. However, some minor discomforts, such as a hot bedroom and the need for fans, slightly affect the score.

About this property

Nestled on the headland above Port Isaac, in North Cornwall, The Crows Nest is a fabulous luxury holiday home boasting spectacular views. With a car port, with space for parking for two cars, sun terrace, balconies, four bedrooms, and five bathrooms, The Crows Nest is a stunning base for a large family or couples sharing. Neutral tones sweep through each floor designed to soothe you into a state of calm blissfulness with subtle reminders of the coast that is right on your doorstep. The open-plan living space is beautifully furnished with a sleek modern kitchen, including range cooker; dining table set in front of bi-fold doors that open on to a balcony with extensive sea views; and a cosy sitting area with corner sofas surrounding a woodburning stove – the perfect place to relax with a glass of wine in the evening. At the rear of the ground-floor there is a separate sitting/sunroom that leads out to a paved patio terrace where you can relax on the sun loungers and soak up the sun. The Crows Nest has four bedrooms set across the first and second-floors: three double rooms and a twin, all with en-suite bathrooms. The two doubles at the front of the house have access to a balcony via the bi-fold patio doors, with stunning views of North Cornwall’s coastline, and the double room on the first floor at the rear of the property has access to a private terrace. There s also a bathroom on the first-floor, where you can relax in style by soaking in the large bath and watching a film on the built in TV. The picturesque village of Port Isaac has some famous faces in the form of the singing group, Fisherman’s Friends, and during the summer months you might be lucky enough to catch a live performance on the Platt. Port Gaverne, only a short stroll down the road from The Crows Nest, is a sheltered family friendly cove where children and adults alike will enjoy the crystal clear blue sea or for those looking for an adrenaline rush, why not try some coasteering, paddle boarding and sea kayaking. Treat yourself to a slice of luxury at The Crows Nest.

Port Isaac; one of the true Cornish treasures. A beautiful fishing village nestling in a steep sided valley, the old village in the valley remains unchanged from its days of fishing, slate export and smuggling in the previous century. 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. Only ten minutes drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike. There is ample parking at the top of the village.

    The location, everything that you have provided within the property, including the lovely little welcome pack, the decor. I hope all the holidaymakers look after this property. Only a couple of niggles for the owners to deal with, maybe! The hot water is scalding, so be careful with little children. The kitchen sink wasn’t as clean as it should be. I had to give it a good scrub, and the same for the cooker knobs. The microwave smelt strongly of curry, obviously previous guests, but nonetheless, we wouldn’t use it. Don’t let any of this put you off, it’s amazing. There are so many fabulous restaurants all close by. Brilliant xx

    The only slight improvement could be a little more TLC/greenery/ colour to outside areas.
