Guests have enjoyed stays at Roncon's Villa, praising its modern facilities, comfy beds, and hot tub. The quirky style and quality furnishings contribute to memorable holidays. The property's village location is convenient for exploring Cornwall's far west. Some guests mentioned thoughtful touches like welcome gifts, adding to the charm of the experience.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Most guests found the property to be spotlessly clean, contributing to a warm and welcoming atmosphere. However, a couple of reviews mentioned cleanliness issues, which slightly impacts the overall high standard noted by others.

The location is highly praised for being ideal for exploring Cornwall, with easy access to beaches, coastal paths, and local attractions. The proximity to pubs and shops in a friendly village is also appreciated.

The property is generally considered comfortable, with special mentions of the quality of the beds and the coziness provided by the log burner. Some guests, however, found the main bed too soft and the sofas a bit firm.

Facilities like the well-equipped kitchen and hot tub are highlights, though some guests suggested improvements in garden furniture and mentioned the property being cluttered. There were also mixed reviews on the maintenance of certain amenities.

Guests often felt well taken care of, with mentions of welcome gifts such as bubbly and chocolates. While these gestures are greatly appreciated, it's important to note that such personal touches, though common, are not guaranteed with every stay.

About this property

Roncon's Villa is a stunningly historic, former school hall, resting in Goldsithney, by the coast. Sleeping up to six guests and walking distance to the beach, this character property is an ideal setting for your next family getaway to Cornwall and within easy reach of Marazion and Penzance. You will enter the property into an open-plan living area, with vintage interior which has been carefully thought out, with great attention to detail including a charming piano and a red velvet chaise, as well as a formal dining table under chandelier lighting and a marvellous woodburning stove surrounded by sofas so that your loved ones can enjoy a family film night with some popcorn. The well equipped kitchen area is certain to entice any budding chefs, with an American style fridge/freezer, granite and wood work tops, a fabulous wine cooler and a handy washing machine, and to finish the ground floor, there is a shower room with lovely decoration. Going up the open-tread stairs to the first-floor, there is a bathroom with a marble basin and seaside decorations, a single bedroom with a great storage space, a family room which allows for flexible sleeping arrangements with a king-size and single bed, along with storage space to make yourself feel at home. To finish this immaculate property there is a double room with exposed low beams and large windows, making it a bright and airy space to escape to. Outside there is a private driveway, with parking for two cars, which leads to the enclosed garden which has lawn for children and dogs to run freely, a sun deck with garden furniture to enjoy some al fresco dining and a sought-after 3-berth hot tub, ideal for an evening under the stars. The picturesque village of Goldsithney has typically Cornish houses, shops, two pubs serving food and Guy's Butterfly House, which is a great tourist attraction to see some relaxing and pretty butterflies. Within walking distance is the village of Perranuthnoe which has a delightful sandy beach and a great hiking area known as Trenow Cove, as well as a couple of lovely beach cafes and the Victoria Pub which is famous for its food. A short drive into the town of Marazion offers art galleries, playgrounds, a fish and chip shop, and of course the gorgeous beach with access to St Michael's Mount whilst the tide is out. Alternatively, take a boat ride to tour the 12th Century castle enjoy views over the amazing beaches of Mounts Bay. The huge beaches of West Cornwall near Goldsithney are great for surfing, wind and kite surfing as well as learning how to kayak and Stand Up Paddle board just down the road in Marazion! If you head slightly further along the breathtaking coast, you can explore Penzance with its picturesque promenade, the bustling harbour, war memorial, the interesting battery rocks, and choice of museums, galleries, shops, bars and eateries which each make for a great evening out, as well as a chance to explore Polgoon Vineyard, a tasetful wine cellar. Also in the area is Cornish Crown Brewery, which makes for a worth while visit if you enjoy trying and testing local beers. Goldsithney is only 10 miles from St Ives and the Lizard and 5 miles from the quaint fishing village of Mousehole. For an amazing trip to Cornwall, in a gorgeous home-away-from-home, choose Roncon's Villa.

Goldsithney is a typical Cornish village with picturesque houses, shops and two pubs. Right on the doorstep there is a beach, coastal walks over cliff tops and plenty of sailing and fishing. Within a short drive is the town of Marazion with the off shore island castle of St Michael's Mount which you can reach when the tide is out.

  • Jane

    Comfortable, charming decor, and felt like home Ideal location as quiet to come home to but easy access to the beaches and places to visit. There’s a wonderful tea room in the village and two local pubs. Communication with the owner was really clear, welcoming, friendly and quick. Will definitely stay again

  • Julian

    They need to change there cleaner and redo the 1 antique storage heater for that huge room . Difficult to reach glasses on deep window sill but they had loads of dust on ,no steps for us short arses .we have stayed in lots of cottages but this was the most expensive but also most disappointing.

  • Claire

    House smelt funny (the whole week) - NOT of dogs. Hot Tub extremely small and very dated. Very cluttered house. Parking diabolical to reverse into. No where hang wetsuits etc. Need a tumble dryer. Cleaning was not up to scratch - greeny on wall and behind beds not pulled out and cleaned in ages. Very cold house and condensation on windows every morning
