Mrs Smith
Bracken Bank is a fantastic home with stunning views. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back in the future. The house is very well equipped, everything you may need has been considered. We had a home delivery from Sainsburys and we ordered our Gousto for a few meals during our stay. Cooking in the kitchen overlooking Porthcurno beach was a pleasure. There is a large American Style Fridge freezer and also two under counter fridges. The stairs lead down to a large bedroom, shower room and kitchenette. A great base for exploring Cornwall.
