    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Mrs Colligan - Verified booking

      WOW WOW WOW! Hollow Tree Cottage was a peaceful idyllic place to stay exploring the many attractions that Cornwall has to offer. We chose the cottage as it was more central for exploring all areas of Cornwall and stayed for two wonderful weeks. In fact so good was our holiday we obviously wanted to stay longer and the cottage played a big part in the success of our holiday. The cottage itself looks like a typical chocolate box cottage and once inside further exceeded itself. Hollow Tree Cottage’s kitchen had all the equipment you could need but as it was a holiday truthfully we didn’t cook there apart from having breakfast and preparing lunches to take out for our busy days. It has a washing machine but no dryer but has two airers and ample outside drying space so ideal. Bedrooms were very comfortable. Bathroom was downstairs but we soon got used to this. Lounge/snug was ideal after our busy days as the sofas were very comfortable. We were very touched by the welcome pack which provided essentials for us and some dog biscuits for our two dogs. Our dogs were happy with the garden so we were happy, Very quiet and we hardly saw anyone whilst staying there. Saying this though we had immediate access to the roads which led us to the A30. We were surprised how convenient it was for all the usual supermarkets/superstores and felt we wanted for nothing. All the different areas of the front and back garden were beautiful and very private. At the back on further exploration up some steps to a “secret garden” we could see some geese and chickens from next doors garden area which was delightful but we never heard anything from the house or the immediate lower back garden so it was peaceful at all times. The garden was so inspirational that it has made us rethink our future garden renovation. Internet signal was excellent and had no problems with buffering/streaming. Jess, the housekeeper/contact, was especially helpful as she answered us immediately when we asked for a possible contact/recommendation for a vet due to one of our dogs recurring health issues which thankfully we didn’t have to use. We were touched when next day Jess got in touch asking about our dog. We found Jess very approachable and she was a plus to the experience of the cottage itself. Overall, we would recommend the cottage and have said if we stay in Cornwall again that Hollow Tree Cottage would be the place we would book again. Excellent from start to finish.

    • The P Family - Verified booking

      First time staying in Porthtowan with our families and found it the perfect location/ base to explore from. The cottage was beautiful, clean and well equipped. First time we haven't had to go our to buy anything that we needed. The beds were so comfortable and having multiple showers, WC's helped a party size such as ours hugely. Porthtowan is stunning, small, quaint and met all of our needs. As we ventured out most days, we didn't get to sample the restaurants or bars. We enjoyed trips out to Lands End, St Ives, Falmouth, St Agnes, Truro, Penzance and Newquay. All very different and enjoyable. Highly recommend a day trip to Tintagel. Lots of lovely walks in Porthtowan especially the views!All in all, we would recommend staying at the cottage again. Cornwall Hideaways have been fabulous and we loved the welcome package. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful cottage!

    • Helen - Verified booking

      Fab location!

      Porthtowan is a little gem and Gecko Beach was very well positioned - great to just walk out onto the beach and be so close to wonderful coastal walks! There's all you need in Porthtowan with a few good restaurants (Blue Bar really relaxed and fun) and brilliant village shop. The fish and chip place next to village shop is fantastic!!! (Just be sure to book collection online early). And Porthtowan is a great place from which to explore Cornwall! The apartment was lovely, very well equipped and comfortable. We appreciated a few treats on arrival! Only downside for us were the bedroom blinds in the bedroom let too much light in - recommend blackout blinds or thicker curtains. Overall a fantastic & relaxing holiday, thank you

    • Carol - Verified booking

      St Ives view is a wonderful property and we are so pleased we have already booked it again for next year .

      The house is perfectly placed and is well equipped for everything you need The views are simply stunning However the only thing which is stopping us booking this property every year for our week in Cornwall is the beds ( we noticed this has been mentioned a few times ) the mattresses are so soft and low they sink below the bed frame when trying to get out and make them very uncomfortable and I think it would be a really nice touch to have higher quality pillows and sheets etc the property isn’t cheap to rent so I wasn’t expecting cheap linen That is THE ONLY thing that in our opinion needs addressing Saying that we had the most wonderful time and are already looking forward to next year

    • Katie - Verified booking

      We had such a lovely stay here.

      The layout was perfect and the view of the bay was outstanding. The kitchen was perfectly stocked, lots of seating in the living area. The double beds were comfy and all the rooms immaculately clean. We loved the short walk through the garden onto the cliff path down to the beach. The only change I would recommend would be the twin beds as these were really not suitable for adults. The mattress sinks below the surround frame which would probably not happen with a child. I am not sure it should really be advertised to sleep up to 8 adults. If the twin beds were to be updated to standard singles we would not hesitate to book this lovely property year after year for our now adult family.
