Probably the best facilities we've ever had and definitely the best instructions via email (war and peace )lol. The sky tv makes all the difference if it rains. Sauna and hot tub were great and we used them alot. Thanks for a great holiday xxxx

It is located in Porth, a short walk down the hill to Porth beach. It was clean and tidy when we arrived. The kitchen is well equipped. The house would benefit from a drying rack, for those rainy days when you cannot hang your washing out. There were no recycling bins either, only a waste bin. I would recommend this property.

We had a wonderful week here and thoroughly enjoyed the house with its fantastic view of Porth Beach, including amazing sunsets. The house has everything you could need including a hot tub and sauna with a view! Thank you and we'll be back for sure.
