Snaptrip says

Beach Cottage in Helston, Cornwall, is praised for its stunning location, charming character, and beautiful views. Guests enjoy the friendly locals, proximity to the beach, and the quaint fishing village atmosphere. The property is well-equipped and ideal for a relaxing holiday. However, some guests find the sofa uncomfortable and suggest improvements for seating comfort.

Guests that stayed at this property said

There are no specific references to cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide an accurate score for this category.

The location is consistently lauded for its spectacular views, immediate beach access, and the charm of a working fishing village. The proximity to local amenities and the ability to travel by public transport are also appreciated.

While the bed and shower are mentioned as comfortable, especially for older guests, there are repeated comments about the sofa being low and uncomfortable, which affects the overall comfort score.

The cottage is described as well-equipped and cosy. However, there are minor issues with the Wi-Fi setup, Sky TV subscription, and a misleading photo regarding outdoor furniture. The property's maintenance is not heavily critiqued, but the fridge door issue is noted.

There are no mentions of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the owner, so it is not possible to score this category. It should be noted that while gifts can enhance a stay, they are not guaranteed.

    To sit and watch the local fishing boats was fantastic. The cottage itself is in a prime position in the village looking straight out to sea. Its a very well equipped cottage and decorated lovely. We will definitely be back.

  • Melinda

    The sofa looked gorgeous but unfortunately it’s really not comfortable, cushions just slop down and makes it uncomfortable to sit on for longer than an hour! Fridge door, when you open it, it seems to clash with the end panel, minor I know but just pointing it out!

  • James

    Great location for relaxing by the sea and exploring the local area. Highly recommend staying at this property. The problem we found was that the sofa triggered my partners allergies (feathers?) and it was also a little too low. Thanks for a great stay
