By Oana on 03-Sep-2025Great place to stay and relax, very close to the beach. Very prompt and helpful owners
Fantastic location
By Miriam on 29-Aug-2025Fantastic location, beautiful views, felt like being in a home rather than a holiday rental.
Lovely, comfortable home in a beautiful location.
By Michael J and family on 06-Aug-2025Lovely, comfortable home in a beautiful location. Praa Sands beach is a 2 minute walk away and is large enough that you can find quiet spot even in high season. Convenient for many other great beaches and locations including the Minnack theatre, St Ives and St Michaels Mount. Check in was easy - the owners were helpful without being intrusive. Thank you for a fantastic stay!
Wonderful week
