Hayle getaway

Great property in a super location. The lodge is clean, really well equipped and the outside space is perfect t if you are bringing children or dogs. The location is great for access to town and a short drive to all the local beaches. Peter and his wife we’re great hosts and really communicative ensuring we had an easy booking and check in process and that we had everything we needed during our stay.

Cowslip cabin

We had a wonderful time at Cowslip cabin , the property was well maintained and the photos didn’t do it justice as the property was larger than what we were expecting . The garden was perfect for little humans to run around on and release some energy . Pete the host was very responsive to our queries . Would recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing holiday

A lovely property with a great host

We had a lovely stay! The property was exactly what we needed, was family friendly, well located, and interaction with Peter was always very helpful/positive. On location, we had lots of green space safe for the kids to play in, we were really well located for amenities in Hayle, Carbis Bay, and St Ives. We also had miles of beautiful coastlines, wonderful beaches, and lots of walks to choose from. Our only criticism is that quite a few of the plates, pans, and cutlery items appear to have been left dirty (presumably by the previous occupants) and this necessitated a bit of unexpected cleaning. However, this is relatively minor (there is a dishwasher too), we wish we had booked a longer stay and would definitely go back.

Holiday accomodation

The holiday flat (Cowslip) which was our home for 2 weeks was a super little flat, very clean on our arrival with everything one needs. As described in a prior preview, we also received a nice little "goodie" basket. There is enough storage room to pack shopping away etc and plenty of fridge space. The bedroom cupboard had enough shelf and hanging space for all our clothes. As someone else wrote that the bedroom is a little dark, but didn't bother us. The fire alarms in both holiday flats are interconnected with one another so one is safe should a fire break out in either flat. The washing room was right next to our flat which was most convenient. There is also a washing basket with pegs for each flat to use. We locked our bikes to the fence infront of our flat, probably not necessary because the place is very safe. There is a huge lawn infront of the flats, so plenty of run around space for the kids. A reminder to all visitors that it is a non smoking area on the entire premises, we didn't read the fine print, but Peter and Carolyn allowed us to smoke once we asked. The only negative point, well 2 actually, is the distant noise from the highway situated about 500m away, it is not that loud, but is mostly there, depending on wind direction. The other is the Gas cannons that go off in the fields to scare birds, sounds like someone wacking a carpet with a broom stick. That is a little disturbing but one gets used to it, not Peter nor Carolyns fault. We had a great time and super chats with Peter who also gave us stacks of tips on what to see, where to eat, pubs to visit etc and much more. Thankyou both very much and we look forward to staying again.

Lovely stay

Lovely place ,owner was very friendly .Ideal location if you have a car , and had most things you could need. Lovely welcome basket of biscuits crisps, and coffee pods for the coffee maker as well as a pint of milk. Only very minor niggles , no full length mirror ( this could be rectified by attaching one to the back of the bedroom door. The bedroom is very dark, even with both bedside lamps on, and the two wall lights , really struggled to see to do hair or makeup ( I know first world problems) the natural light from the window doesn’t really help.on a dark morning really struggled to see anything . The fire alarms are linked to both properties, and twice we had to endure the next door neighbour setting hers off, later into the evening . The front door to the cabin has no blind or curtain on it, which I think it could benefit from especially as the laundry room is right next door, and the view is clearly visiable from here , which I felt un-nerving especially when dressed in bedroom attire and wanting to sit on the sofa( looks directly out) That said just minor things which I think could improve the place. Would happily rent again , nicely done , close to Hayle village and a great fish and chip shop.

Wonderful Cornwall holiday!

It was a great stay and we would like to go back. The only little problem was that the property was not completely child safe. It was necessary to look after our son, 23 months, all the time.

Reccomend it for a week stay as we only managed to stay for 3 days. The cabin is great, very clean and cosy. You have everything you need plus a nice terrace and views. The owners were also nice and friendly. We would definately come back to recharge our batteries.

Spending time with family.

We stayed here last year to be able to spend time with sons and families. Great that we can use the grassy area to play with the children. Plenty of space to picnic. Also very secure and private. When on our own we love the peacefulness of the location. Thanks Pete and Karen

Relaxing Place To Stay

This is a very lovely 'Kabyn' set in some beautiful grounds. Everything was spotlessly clean with crisp white bed linen and soft white towels. We found everything we needed in the accommodation. A very quiet and peaceful place to stay, but also within easy reach of Hayle and St.Ives. I would definitely recommend Cowslip Kabyn.
