Property is both extremely family and pet friendly. The garden is very secure and the drive is gated so no chance of any escapees. Very clean inside and plenty of crockery and cooking utensils. Also we found the site to be very quiet and not at all noisy like other places we have stayed at.Location is ideal for visiting other areas of Cornwall.We would have no problem in recommending people to stay here and are hoping to book again for next year

Hosts were very responsive, and the property was as described and shown in the pictures. Location on a holiday resort but still nice and quiet. 2 good size bedrooms with en-suites and a large kitchen living g space upstairs. If you have trouble with stairs maybe don’t book but everything else is Perfect for a holiday in Cornwall. Almost don’t want anyone else to know so we can book again

So nice to know that we have had such good reviews, it is important to us that our guests have a 100% carefree holiday. We also have the benefit of being only a couple of miles from 7 lovely bays, and some of the most amazing cliff top walks. Thank you for all your lovely comments about Upperdeck.

Great place to stay

Great location near the beaches. Upper Deck is located in a quiet holiday park. The property was spacious and well equipped with a wrap around garden which was great for the dogs. Hosts communication was excellent and they left scones with jam and clotted cream upon arrival. Overall we had a lovely visit.

Lovely property, great location.

Great place to stay while we adventured a few places in Cornwall. Had everything we needed, clean and tidy property. Gated entrance and enough room for two cars. The “site” was perfect. Lovely little bar and shop a few minutes walk away but so peaceful and relaxing. Kitchen well equipped, comfy beds, great sized garden for the pooch to have a run in and enjoyed the sunshine. Would stay again. Lovely hosts. Thank you.

Upper Deck

The property was extremely spacious and clean, perfectly well equipped. Comfortable inside and out with a very safe wrap around garden for our dogs. Excellent location for the 7 bays. Interactions with the owners was excellent, they were in the adjacent property during our stay, they were accessible and very friendly albeit not intrusive in the slightest.
