Eric
The property came with everything that we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked with all we wanted for cooking. It was spotlessly clean, very warm and the Christmas decorations and the lights was a lovely touch. Also the cream tea was a lovely treat. The dog was very safe in the garden, he was very happy.

It is ideal for us as we have family members living close-by. The property is spotlessly clean, comfortable and has a few essentials such as milk, tea, coffee etc and some lovely scones with home made jam. The secure garden is great for our dogs. We had daily walks on the beach at Portreath and the cliffs around Portreath, Porthtowan and St Agnes head which includes the much photographed Wheal Coates mine ruins. The Pod coffee house in Porteath is well worth a visit after a walk on the beach. We have already booked again for next year.

We used it as a base to go visit a lot of different areas of Cornwall on our honeymoon. The apartment was clean and welcoming. Had everything we needed. Our dog loved her stay there as well. She enjoyed the lovely little garden. The one negative about the whole stay was that the bed was quite uncomfortable, and after a full day out, we couldn't get a good night's sleep.
