Guests appreciate the responsive and helpful property owners.
Guests are delighted with the cleanliness of the property, often highlighting it as a standout feature.
The property's central location near beaches and local amenities is appreciated, though one guest mentioned a tight access road.
The comfort of the beds and the overall warmth and cosiness of the property are frequently commended.
Facilities are generally well-received, with a special mention of the bathroom and garden area. However, a concern about lukewarm shower water suggests a potential issue with maintenance.
While guests mention a welcome pack and the property being well-equipped, there is not enough information to assess the consistency of these thoughtful gestures, and they should not be expected on every visit.

Par village is located on the South Cornwall coast offering a sandy family and dog-friendly beach (dogs allowed all year round) on St. Austell Bay. The village is only 2.5 miles away from the internationally renowned Eden Project, which can be reached on foot through the leafy green Luxulyan Valley. Between Par and the picturesque harbour of Fowey, is the Gribbin Peninsula, which has magnificent views of the surrounding coastline and makes for an excellent walk. Close to Par are many places connected to the author Daphne du Maurier, including the small cove at Polkerris which boasts the Rashleigh Arms and which takes its name from a local landowner whose house was frequented by the author. There are many attractions in the area including the China Clay Country Park, Charlestown Shipwreck Museum and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. A fabulous location to explore the rich heritage and magnificent coastline of South Cornwall.

I would definitely recommend Eden retreat It had everything we needed getting upto house is a bit tight up a side road but Very quiet no noise from neighbours when we visited Only problem I had was shower water was luke warm not hot enough Even though hot water was on needs looking at And hive central heating came on even though we had it set to a certain degrees 1 night Overall I would recommend and revisit Hopefully the shower gets looked at The owners made it a home away from home thought of everything including a little welcome pack But I definitely be back to the Eden retreat should I visit my family nearby here

There was a lovely complementary basket which was lovely. The location Is great as its quite central and close to the beaches (dog friendly) the garden ws great too especially for outside dining and was well maintained. The only issues we had while there were with our car but the owners stepped in and drove us in to town to get a part which was such a great help! I would highly recommend this property!!!
