Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.
"We had such a lovely time at Pendeen, our boys absolutely loved exploring the house and staying there, so much our 4 year old is begging to go back."
The water pressure is honestly the best we’ve ever had in Cornwall and the house was so clean. Beds were extremely comfortable land can’t honestly can’t rate enough.

"Departure time was changed to 9am - too early on holiday"
We understand that 9am is early but our cleaning contractor request this so that they have maximum flexibility when change over days are busy. We find that it's best to pack up in the evening so that it's easy to load the car and be away by 9.00am - then find a lovely local cafe for breakfast!

"We were in Pendeen for the first 2 weeks of June."
We loved it! Such a convenient layout, our son went upstairs while husband and I used the twin room downstairs. Clean, tidy and extremely well equipped. Kitchen was great, we do cook simple meals most nights, eating out a couple of times. A lovely lady (Fay?) came during the middle weekend and gave us fresh bedding, we didn’t mind changing the sheets ourselves.
Lovely garden, just lovely! Garden furniture rather tired so we used our beach chairs.
Pendeen is a great place to stay, with a homely feel to it. I expect to be booking again.

"Pendeen is a first class property."
Great accommodation and presented to a high level of cleanliness, with all modern facilities . I found the property to be very comfortable and the heating system worked perfectly. This was March and cold outside at times. The property is situated just outside the center of Wadebridge and is only a ten minute walk from “Pendeen.” It is ideally situated for exploring the Camel Trail, and the beautiful beaches along the North Coast of Cornwall from Newquay to Bude. The beautiful South West Coast Path is also close at hand. Pendeen is a very comfortable family home, on a quiet residential road close to the center of Wadebridge. I would highly recommend the property to anyone looking to explore the Camel Trail or holiday on the beautiful beaches of North Cornwall, walk on the Coast Path or explore Bodmin Moor just a few miles inland.

"We loved our stay at Pendeen!"
It is a really well equipped house, with everything you need for cooking at home etc, comfy beds, and a dining room which I used to work in , with excellent WiFi.The house is beautifully clean and being able to have some heating on for the chillier evenings was a bonus!
A short walk into town was great, and we can recommend The Stepping Stone restaurant particularly.
We hope to come back in the future.

"This was the second time we stayed at Pendeen and once again we really enjoyed it."
The cottage is well equipped and spacious, the three bedrooms allowing my son and daughter to have their own private space. Dining spaces in the kitchen for a quick breakfast and dining room for a long relaxed evening meal is a great feature.
The location close to the centre of Wadebridge is excellent for us, being less busy than the coastal villages, and easy to get out and about. The cottage is a short walk from the park which the children enjoy and also the local shops. The coop is close and useful but I thoroughly recommend the independent shops. We had amazing local Scallops and Mussels from the Fishmonger, beef from the butchers and bread from the bakers.
Going further, Pendeen is handy for the Camel trail, a great way to get to Padstow with it’s beautiful harbour and great restaurants downstream, and woodlands to Bodmin and Wenfordbridge upstream. Be sure to stop at the cafe for a cream tea or Camel Valley fizz. There are many great bits of coastline less than 30 mins drive away. We enjoyed both the bustling beach at Polzeath and the quieter coastal walks around Lundy and Port Quin.
Thoroughly recommend!

"A lovely spacious and comfortable bungalow."
It got over warm although the weather was quite cold. With the current cost of fuel I think some sort of temperature control for the whole system would be a benefit to keep a constant temperature instead of all or nothing. Having said that we would certainly return to Pendeen in the future.
We are pleased you enjoyed your stay at Pendeen. All the radiators have thermostatic controls which can be adjusted up and down to suit individual requirements and we apologise if this wasn't obvious - we definitely don't want anyone wasting fuel!

"The location of the house was ideal for us as it was just a couple of minutes walk into Wadebridge (which is a lovely small town) and we were also able to cycle on the Camel Trail - it was an easy flat route along to Padstow."
The house had everything we needed and though the decor/kitchen was a little dated, for a holiday home it provided a comfortable stay and there was plenty of storage space! The garden was private and sunny. There were several beaches within 10-15 minutes drive e.g Harlyn, Polzeath, Daymer Bay and also coastal walks. If you don't want to be right at the beach, this is a good cottage to choose.

"The house was very clean and well equipped and beds were comfortable, generally very good."
A couple of reclining type chairs would have been nice to enjoy the sun in the garden and some bigger towels, maybe bath sheets . The main problem that we found is that the ceiling in the master bedroom next to the bed was very sloped and as we are both 6’ tall we did bang our heads a couple of times . Overall though I would say 4/5 because of these small points. Location was great, just a five minute walk to Wadebridge shops and cafes

A bit disappointed with the water heating up needs updating new boiler etc it’s the only negative feedback the cottage is well placed and comfortable to stay in if we came back to wadebridge we would use again
The water at Pendeen is heated by a conventional boiler three times a day. If additional hot water is required a +1hr button can be used by the customer. The mains pressure hot water system ensures that the showers are lovely and refreshing. When we investigated the customer's concerns we discovered that the timer had inadvertently been switched off, therefore the problem was quickly rectified.

We holidayed with our six year old daughter and my mother in law and we all had a fantastic time.

We took the bus to padstow, visited Lanhydrock (national trust), the lost gardens of heligan, local beaches, port issac and the camel trail is just down the road.
