Beautifully situated cottage, very comfortable not far from a dog and people friendly pub.. Fantastic area with lots of stunning coves and beaches, parking very difficult for all but the smallest vehicle, we paid to park in the village car park and walk, it was easier and safer. Stairs very steep if your mobility is limited.

Cottage was pretty much as described although more information on whether the garage is to be used or not would be helpful as there was nothing in the instructions that suggested whether we were allowed to park in there or not..

Wonderful property.. Ideal location for escaping the hustle and bustle of life. Cream tea on arrival was lovely and sitting out on the patio with a cup of tea and enjoying the tranquility of the surroundings was heaven.

We could not have asked for more.. Within touching distance of water in the cove that is Portloe the Cottage was close to perfect. Everything had been addressed to make our stay comfortable and welcoming including some scones to enjoy with that first cup of tea when we arrived. Cornwall in February surprised us with regards to the weather, warmer by a few degrees than at home in west Berkshire and so many plants in bloom. The owners have managed to make the Cottage more of a home than just a rental. Thankyou

Wonderful, right on the cliff location.. Cottage is well equipped and comfortable. Be warned of narrow steep drive for parking and a number of internal steps, but this a great place for the able bodied to enjoy total peace off season and leave feeling revived.

Wonderful location, lovely clean cottage with amazing views of the harbour and cliffs beyond.. We were met with scones, jam, milk and clotted cream in the fridge which was very nice. Linens and towels were great quality and clean and bright white. The cottage is very nicely decorated in a beachy theme, the kitchen had all the necessary equipment as well as coffee, tea and sugar (some basic herbs/spices/olive oil would have been welcome as there is no shop within walking distance). No hair dryer was provided and the glass on the wood stove had to be cleaned before we could enjoy the fire. We really enjoyed sitting out on the terrace in the sunshine watching the waves and the seabirds and had lovely cliff walks each day. The beaches in the surrounding areas were wonderful and as we were there in the “off season”, our dog was able to enjoy them as well. We would caution anyone with small children or any mobility issues as this cottage is on a very steep cliff and there are very steep stairs inside and outside the cottage. Although we enjoyed our stay, our first night was a bit chilly as the electric heaters had not been on and it took until well into the following morning before we felt the cottage had warmed up sufficiently. There is no mobile service in this area so we were not able to contact the housekeeper but emailed Sykes for assistance, it took 24 hours for Sykes to respond and by that time my handy husband had figured out the heating and we had burned through all of the logs provided! Very surprising in view of Sykes reputation for customer service. A lovely place no matter what the weather!

Sykes customer services were very quick to sort out a few ‘hiccups’while we were there..

What a cosy and delightful cottage.. The sea views were fabulous. We enjoyed the scones and clotted cream and settled straight in to eat them . The weather was great for mid October and the sun shone regularly so we could sit and eat outside. We enjoyed walks with our dog straight onto the coastal path with spectacular views. What a lovely break from it all at home .

Beautiful setting and lovely welcome cream tea and flowers, very Much appreciated - thank you.. Close proximity to the local pub and lots of walks. A couple of points though - Need to include tea towels and oven gloves at the property Should be in the listing that the stairs are steep, uneven and open on one side - especially if a family with young children or elderly relatives arrive Should state that there are different floor levels/steps inside the property - this can be a bit of an issue for relatices who are slightly unsteady on their feet.

This is the most amazing house, the views are so fantastic You can see and feel the sea all around, it's like being on a luxury ship The cottage looks beautiful inside and outside and.. the terrace overlooking the sea is the ultimate holiday treat, this place is a nature lovers paradise Portloe is a haven of tranquility and felt so fresh even when the temperatures were soaring This is the place to go if you want perfect peace Listen to the waves lapping and drink in the calm relaxing and rejuvenating atmosphere The cream tea on our arrival was a lovely touch We immediately felt at home - such a gorgeous and homely house Sykes is a great agency, thank you for being so friendly helpful and efficient

Beautiful location, the harbour view was fantastic.. Well equipped and well appointed cottage. Portloe is a lovely little village with a great local pub, Veryan, Carne, and Tregony are all walkable and also have lovely pubs and lovely walks. Falmouth on the ferry from St Mawes £30, catch the train to St Ives from Truro £17.50 for family of four and both great days out. Mevagissey is a 30 min drive but well worth a visit. We went in February half term and had lovely weather but I imagine its even nicer in May with spring in the air.

This was our second stay at this cottage.. A lovely retreat in a marvellous situation.

We were a group of 6 adults and 2 dogs and we really enjoyed staying at this comfy perfectly positioned cottage.. A warm welcome awaited us as we found a bouquet of flowers and a delicious cake on arrival. As clearly stated in the terms and conditions I paid a cleaning charge of £15 per dog which is standard on booking accomadation . As a suggestion for the future you might consider this- I understand the need for a deposit because not all guests would necessarily leave the cottage as clean as when they arrived. But on other holidays I have booked elsewhere they report back to say if any of the deposit would be refunded after your stay. I always take care of the property as I would my own home and leave it clean and prepared for the cleaner. We often get positive feedback from company we have rented. Obviously I do not expect this on this occasion because that is not in your terms. Another suggestion would be to provide more tea towels (we only had 2) and 1 spare set of laundry if there are 6 people renting. I hope this is taken as positive feedback because I would emphaise how much we truly enjoyed staying at such a comfortable cottage and would love to book it again. Thanks Carole.
