Guests that stayed at this property said

Guests have generally found Thalassa clean, but there have been instances of overlooked areas and maintenance issues affecting cleanliness. Some guests took the initiative to clean certain aspects themselves, indicating room for improvement in this area.

The location is consistently lauded for its fantastic views and proximity to beaches and coastal paths, making it a highly desirable destination for guests seeking scenic beauty and outdoor activities.

The property is often described as cosy and warm, with a peaceful atmosphere. However, some guests have mentioned issues with mattresses and radiator valves, suggesting that while comfort is generally high, there is potential for enhancement.

Thalassa is praised for being well-equipped and providing amenities like Sky TV. Nonetheless, guests have reported maintenance issues such as non-functioning lights and a slow-draining shower, indicating that while facilities are good, attention to detail is needed.

There are no mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the property owners or managers. Therefore, it is not possible to assess this category based on the reviews provided.

About this property

Thalassa is a well-positioned, stunning home set above Greenaway Beach on the Atlantic Ocean in North Cornwall, whilst overlooking the mouth of the Camel Estuary. Enjoying magnificent sea views from its majestic clifftop position, Thalassa is an attractive, well-equipped holiday home, offering four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and spacious living and dining areas, providing ample accommodation for up to seven guests. The property is accessed via a private unmade road, has off-road parking, and is set amidst a wonderful large lawned garden that children will love to explore. From the moment you arrive you will soak up the natural light from the many windows, each framing the ever-changing coastal landscape. A large, south-facing terrace is perfect for sun-drenched suppers and lazy breakfasts, prepared in the well-equipped kitchen, then, as the evening air chills down, you can retire to the sun lounge to enjoy the sense of space and the breath-taking sunsets. From Thalassa you can easily explore the beauty of North Cornwall with many fine sandy beaches within a 5-mile radius, most of which are dog-friendly all year round. The holiday home has direct access onto the coastal paths, which link to nearby Daymer Bay, the world-renowned St Enodoc Golf course, and the pretty St Enodoc church, the resting place of the late poet laureate Sir John Betjeman. At low tide you can walk across the sands around to Rock for some retail therapy, wonderful restaurants or catch the short ferry ride to Padstow. In the other direction you will reach Polzeath, renowned as one of the best surfing beaches in Britain and offering yet more water sports, cafés, shops, and galleries. Experience the best of the Cornish coastline from Thalassa.

Daymer Bay and the village of Trebetherick were both loved by Sir John Betjeman and are unquestionably special. With a huge appeal to both the young and not so young, Daymer Bay has recently been voted one of the best beaches in the world! St. Enodoc Church, once buried in the sand, is within comfortable walking distance of Daymer Bay and is the resting place of Sir John Betjeman. Daymer Bay holds great appeal for wind surfers with the waves rolling up the estuary. There is enormous fun too for small children with buckets and spades and fishing in the rock pools. Up from the coast path as it runs from Daymer Bay is Highcliffe, nestling between Polzeath and Trebetherick, both of which boast a number of pubs, restaurants and village stores all offering a wide variety of fresh quality produce. The properties at Highcliffe have the advantage of being within easy reach of Daymer, Polzeath and Greenaway - Greenaway being the name given to the clifftop area, beach and small cove with rock pools overlooking the Atlantic beyond that lies between Daymer and Polzeath.

    Quiet peaceful property so well equipped cant praise it enough. Lovely gardens and seating areas. Grandson loved watching all the boats passing by and wonderful sunsets.

  • Nigel

    Cold in dining room which is open to the front door. Curtains don't pull across in downstairs windows in dining room, kitchen and stairs. 2 mattrasses in downstairs bedroom uncomfortable, they must be very old as the buttons protrude. Radiator valves are all difficult to move, one snapped off - again very old. Had to call out maintenance guy as some radiators needed air bleeding. Could be cleaner in corners, behind chairs and beds. Overall, really need to improve standards. Good points, hot water, lovely views. Stayed 1st week of December
