Guests say
The Meadow in Feock, Cornwall, is a well-regarded holiday cottage praised for its stunning views, peaceful setting, and well-equipped amenities. Guests appreciate the property's cleanliness, the convenience for exploring Cornwall, and the thoughtful touches such as provided samples of shampoo and shower gel. While some minor maintenance issues and comfort improvements are suggested, the overall sentiment is positive with many guests eager to return.
Most guests found The Meadow to be clean and tidy, with several positive remarks about its cleanliness. However, a few guests mentioned issues such as a scum ring around the bath, a dirty fridge, and superficial cleaning in some areas, which slightly lowers the score.
The location is highly praised for its fabulous views, tranquility, and accessibility to local attractions and both coasts. It serves as a peaceful base for exploring the surrounding areas, with many guests noting the convenience for trips around Cornwall.
Guests generally found The Meadow comfortable, with special mentions of the views and the property's suitability for a range of ages. Some guests, however, noted that the beds and sofas could be more comfortable, and the en-suite shower's performance was subpar.
The property is considered well-equipped and thoughtfully furnished. Nonetheless, guests have suggested improvements such as better outdoor furniture, more oven trays, and updates to some tired furnishings. Maintenance issues like rusted steps and blown light bulbs were also mentioned.
While guests have mentioned thoughtful touches like shampoo and shower gel samples, there is not enough information to determine if such gifts are consistently provided or to assess the overall thoughtfulness of the host. Therefore, this score is set to null.
About this property
Carnon Downs 2.6 miles. The Meadow is a single story waterside cottage located on the bank of Pill Creek. Pill Creek is an area of outstanding natural beauty and has some well known houses built overlooking it. The Meadow is open plan and contemporary styled, making it the perfect easy-living holiday space. Set in the picturesque village of Feock, the cottage boasts stunning water views down the garden, over the Creek and out onto the the Fal Estuary which can be enjoyed even more on the decked balcony area which surrounds the house. Sleeping six, there are three bedrooms in the cottage with configurable bed arrangements. The main bedroom consists of a king size bed with views over the garden and an ensuite bathroom. In the other two bedrooms you have the option of twin beds or a super-king. The Meadow is only a few miles from the city of Truro but also offers local, walking distance attractions. Loe beach is just a fifteen minute walk away where you can find a cafe, as well as a sailing and windsurfing school from Easter to the end of September, offering a full and comprehensive programme of tuition for all water sports along with equipment hire. The beautiful National Trust gardens of Trelissick are a 20 minute walk away, right next to The King Harry Ferry where you can quickly reach The Roseland Peninsula and enjoy its sandy beaches, beautiful landscape and attractions at St Mawes.
Carnon Downs is a charming Cornish village, providing all the essentials for any self-catered stay. Home to a shop, Post Office, pub and golf club, there's plenty to explore in the local area when you're not discovering the excitement of the Cornish coast.

Highly recommend a visit to nearby Trelissick for the gardens, the free walk over the fields, and the views.

). The property is well equipped overall although we would love a couple of loungers on the deck for those days and evenings when a good book and G and T could be enjoyed in comfort. The ensuite bathroom would benefit from a couple of shelves for placing toiletries on - the small window sill isn't really appropriate! Storage in all the bedrooms is also a little tight - some drawers would be so useful. In the kitchen, oven trays for frozen chips etc. would also be appreciated. A great property for families and adult parties alike - we will be returning.
