    Nothing. It was fantastic.

    Absolutely superb! Highly recommend staying here. The property was beautiful, spotlessly clean and had everything you could wish for provided. The views are amazing and the position of the property is perfect for the beach, town and Pendennis Castle. The owners are lovely and made us feel very welcome. Loved our short family break and will definitely return.

    Just to have some more detail on how to get the EV charging point working as it wasn't immediately clear and caused a bit of panic knowing we had very little charge left (luckily we had our own cable to may have been helpful to know that it was an untethered EV point). Got it charging eventually but more through luck than anything else! We arrived at night - difficult to find the property initially as was very dark and without getting out of the car and wondering around a bit - again perhaps some further communication on this prior to arrival would have been extra helpful

    Lovely little ground floor accommodation with open fire - spectacular views of the bay. Really helpful to have a EV point for charging the car too

    Found the logs and kindling but didn't find any newspaper for lighting the fire again. That said it was laid for us to use the first night which was so welcoming as the weather was pretty dreadful. And there was plenty of logs and kindling so we soon got the fire started each day.

    Fab sea views, close to town, quiet, parking for 2 cars, open fire + central heating. Comfortable, well equipped, even had an extra loo.

    Everything thought of. Linen and towels good quality and clean. Shower v good. Lounge and terrace area made the holiday though with such a beautiful view.

    Only a minor thing as weather was so poor but a tumble dryer would have been helpful to dry beach clothes as was too damp to do outdoors and little drying indoors.

    The location was superb with lovely sea views. A 5 minute walk to the beach and only a short walk to main town. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and had a well equipped kitchen. A very enjoyable couple of days spent relaxing. A great option for all weathers, with a lovely seating area at the front for good weather and a cosy fire for the winter.

    Access road not easy at first until you realised how to approach it! Have someone living upstairs - it’s an apartment you rent - but they do run things and are very pleasant and helpful but of course you hear them in the rooms above.

    A lovely clean apartment with an excellent view of the sea like the photo. Well equipped throughout with everything you need for a short or long stay. Town within walking distance as are food shops and a local beach and beach restaurant and bar. Quiet location with no hassle and plenty of space to move around. Rooms as described in the info.

    the only downside , was due to having arrived via public transport , the buses stop at 6 pm , so had to get cabs (as its quite a walk in the dark to the town , but if your driving then there is parking and this would not be an issue ,

    Fab Location , double room has a sea view , lovely small terrace to sit and have breakfast also looking out to sea , perfect host , will go and stay again , a gem of a place
