We had a truly wonderful stay at Mor Glass. The property itself is absolutely beautiful, with breathtaking views of the sea that you can enjoy right from the cleverly designed upstairs living and dining area. Having the main social space elevated really made the most of the stunning scenery.
Each bedroom was thoughtfully appointed, with either an ensuite or easy access to a private bathroom, which made our stay incredibly comfortable. The house was stocked with high-quality appliances, crockery, and furnishings—everything felt luxurious and well cared for.
We had to adjust our arrival date, and Cornish Escapes couldn’t have been more accommodating. Their team was friendly, flexible, and made the process seamless. During our stay, we encountered a minor issue, but the staff responded promptly and efficiently, resolving it without any hassle.
Mor Glass exceeded our expectations, and we’re already looking forward to returning. Highly recommended! ⭐️
