    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Rachel - Verified booking

      I thought the inside decor was really cosy and beautiful and was surprised by the uplifting high ceiling and windows at the back of the lounge area with views of outside trees.

      Lying in the hot tub with the trees and sounds of bird song was really relaxing and really miss that part of holiday. Please don’t get rid of the hot tub as made the holiday extra relaxing. We were also surprised how close we were to sea; as walkable in 10 minutes. After couple of days discovered cliff path from top of lane hill; just outside houses area; I thought it was just someone’s drive; was handy to walk the dog. Would be good if there was a cliff path sign there, but it’s just handily opposite the dog poo bin. The cliff path area was stunning, and surprised to find walk north to Chapel cove closer than we thought( although would be more of a trek with a young family and beach stuff to carry; so would be easier then to drive to);and amazed such a small cove had a really good cafe and toilets. Would definitely love to come back sometime. There is a friendly grocery store; which we should have used more but had arranged a Tesco delivery; also a great pub and a relaxing bar where you can order food. Also a chip shop that is open the later part of the week and weekends. The gift shop near bar has a great supply of beach type stuff if you forget anything, like flip flops, beach mats, towels. If you love the beach; you really wouldn’t need to venture out of Porthtowan if the weather was good.

      32 Trevithick is a superbly presented rental cottage, with everything supplied to make your stay thoroughly enjoyable.

      General décor is very good and the lighting offers many differing schemes that cover everything you might need. Furniture and beds in 32 are really comfortable, and the under floor heating adds that special touch when you get up in the morning and take a shower, but equally keeps the ambient temperature just right. All of the essentials elements, the hob, the oven, the washing machine, dishwasher, fridge, bathing and showering facilities are like new and kept spotless by the owners and cleaning staff. Lots of wardrobes and drawer space lets you space out your clothes across all three bedrooms. Bathrooms are light, airy and well maintained, with an upstairs bath/toilet, whilst the downstairs bathroom has a really lovely shower room and toilet. Externally, the décor at 32 is kept to a high standard and offers chairs to sit outside at the front, and picnic style benches to the rear. The grassy area's are kept neat and tidy which adds to the overall look and appeal at the complex. The owner/s are attentive to any issues and are really lovely... nothing seems too much trouble. 32 Trevithick was a rare find, and can be summed up as a fantastic place to spend R&R time, whilst exploring Cornwall, or for just chilling and letting the world go by. A BIG Thank You to Gareth and Family!

    • Suzanne - Verified booking

      We stayed here at the end of August 2023.

      The property is surrounded by other holiday properties, parking was difficult and you couldn't always park outside of the property which did cause difficulties. The area by the hot tub needs some tlc, so we only went out there once. We had to contact the owners as we spotted a rat on the decking near the patio door. The maintenance person arrived to put poison down, but it did put us off going outside to enjoy the hot tub. The bedrooms are comfortable so no complaints, the downstairs area was small as the dining table is huge and takes up a lot of the space so it is difficult if there are quite a few of you in the property. The cleanliness of the property was average, we had a problem with the upstairs shower in the ensuite, it was taking forever to drain so you had to be careful not to be in there too long. The road up to the property is single track, walking down to the beach is difficult especially if you have children as when cars are going up and down there are not many passing places to get out of the way of the cars. Overall I would not return to this property.

      This is a lovely lodge with everything needed for a family stay.

      Plenty of crockery etc, excellent washing machine and the beds are so comfortable. Decor is modern and lodge is well laid out and comfortable. Free passes were also provided for use of the on site pool and, bar and club. Our only issues were, another family had somehow managed to enter the lodge before us then realised they had the wrong lodge, we still do not know how they did this as the keys were locked in the key coded box on our arrival. Thankfully they had realised before using any facilities or beds. we had no Wi-Fi all week until on the last night my son noticed the Wi-Fi box had been unplugged in the rear bedroom. We did not know about the immersion heaters for hot water and had to rummage through a pile of leaflets to find the lodge instruction manual which seems a little out of date and should be made more easily available. The provided clothes airer was broken, we managed with just the lower section but the bars had broken to fully extend it. Overall these were minor issues that did not spoil our holiday and can easily be rectified. We would definitely book again.

    • Louise - Verified booking

      I left a message in the comments book which basically covered everything.

      Lovely position, near beach. Road to it very narrow, Sykes say 3 parking spaces but only one when you get there and it states this in the property folder. Family member burnt his hand on a faulty radiator which later fell off the wall as brackets literally melted. This tripped the switch leaving us with very little working, including hot water in two bathrooms. Hard to contact anyone and had to use phone in nearby pub to leave message. Maintenance made live wire safe but was unable to fix/ replace. Left with one electric shower only do struggle for my elderly mother. Lovely welcome pack of cream tea on arrival, best hot tub and hot tub maintenance ever experienced. Homely feel, decor and comfort. I’m sure we would return again but only if Sykes can promise all facilities are in good working order and give clarity on parking space/ spaces?? Also, give clearer directions please as I used Google maps to find exact address.
