Snaptrip says
The Crow's Nest receives high praise for its stunning location in Porthleven, offering beautiful sea views and easy access to local attractions. Guests find the cottage cosy, well-equipped, and particularly appreciate the balcony. While some minor maintenance issues are noted, the overall experience is one of comfort and relaxation, with the sound of the sea providing a tranquil backdrop.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests consistently describe the cottage as very clean, with only one isolated mention of a damp issue, suggesting high standards of cleanliness are maintained.
The location is highly commended for its proximity to the beach, harbour, and local amenities, with the added bonus of free parking nearby. The sea views are a highlight for many.
The cottage is frequently described as cosy and comfortable, with a particularly comfortable bed. However, some guests mention the settee could be more comfortable, slightly impacting the score.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, especially the kitchen and balcony. Some guests experienced issues with heating and maintenance, which suggests room for improvement.
While guests mention a cream tea on arrival, there are not enough references to other thoughtful touches to accurately score this category. It should be noted that such gifts are a delightful surprise and not guaranteed.
