Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests consistently mention the property's cleanliness, describing it as 'spotlessly clean' and 'pristinely clean', indicating a very high standard of cleanliness throughout the property.
The location is frequently highlighted as fantastic, with amazing views and proximity to local attractions like St. Michael's Mount. The direct access to the beach and local eateries within walking distance contribute to the exceptional location score.
The property is described as comfortable with quality fittings and luxurious linens. However, a few guests mentioned issues with heating and lounge comfort, slightly impacting the overall comfort score.
Facilities are generally praised for being well-equipped and of high quality. Some guests noted outdated information and missing items like a third TV, and a few suggested improvements such as additional glasses and plates, which suggests room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
The welcome pack is well-received, indicating thoughtfulness. However, as gifts are not guaranteed and not all reviews mention them, the score reflects the positive feedback without setting an expectation of gifts for future guests.
