Overall is it an enjoyable stay in Portwrinkle. We enjoyed spending time in the hot tub and admiring the view and listening to the waves on the shores.The local beaches were clean, only one being dog friendly during the summer months. One downside is the allocated parking, if other cars were already parked it was very difficult to park.

Wonderful stay

We have a great few days here in Cornwall. A beautiful location overlooking the sea! Very quiet and remote and a lovely little beach right next to the house! Weather wasn’t great but we still had a great time. Would recommend the pub at the top of the hill The Finnygook. A short walk from the cottage. Thanks and we hope to be back again!

Great location but overpriced

We enjoyed our stay with being within a 5 minute walk of two beaches. The hot tub was very clean and nice to use. The water tank/heater was very noisy all night, being right between the bedrooms. We found the house a bit tired and in need of a bit of updating generally, especially for the price. There were sweets wrappers under the coffee table that our dogs found, so we weren’t sure how thorough the cleaners had been. Very nice enclosed garden with outdoor lights, good for our dogs. Overall, compared to other cottages we have stayed in, we found it not value for money and for the price we paid we wouldn’t stay again.

The Perfect Secret Escape

A lovely and homely property perfect for a short getaway. The little touches on first impression were a pleasant surprise: the heating was on to a cosy temperature upon our arrival in the afternoon, the hottub was primed and ready to enjoy, the kitchen had EVERYTHING you could need, and there were plenty of linens and enough towels for each guest as we were four adults. We also traveled with our small dog who had all the freedom to roam in the well secured front garden. There was ample green space for him and two security gates before he could have escaped to the road. Some things to keep in mind and can be approved upon: There was not enough loo roll for the duration of our stay. The toilet that is upstairs, has a door that is very difficult to lock due to the wood expanding. Overall, we would love to come back! The SPA access was an added bonus that we used everyday.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations. We do provide detailed check-in information in advance, and our team is always available to assist if anything is unclear. Unfortunately, it appears this information may not have been fully reviewed prior to arrival, which led to some initial confusion. Our cottage is a traditional, character property, and we present this as clearly and transparently as possible through our photos and description. It offers a cosy, period-style experience rather than a modern, hotel-style environment, which many of our guests specifically choose and enjoy. During your stay, our team made every effort to assist and ensure you were comfortable, and we’re sorry that despite this, we were unable to meet your expectations on this occasion. For future bookings, we would recommend carefully reviewing property details to ensure the style of accommodation aligns with what you’re looking for. Kind regards, The Team
