What our customers say about their holidays

  The property could really benefit from some maintenance and upgrades.

  The appliances in the kitchen are leaking and you spend more time cleaning water than enjoying your stay. The blinds are so old they have been superglued back together numerous times and they have frayed. Heaven forbid you try to open them. The television is so old and grainy the picture quality is terrible. And the sofas feel like they was purchased from a charity shop ten years ago. ‘‘Twas more comfortable to be sat on the floor. Unable to contact both Sykes or the landlord during our stay. Neighbours constantly complaining that the property is protected by a convenance the prevents the owner from renting it out. Relaxing stay? No chance.

  We had a great stay at Driftwood.

  Great location. Comfy beds. The sofas were excellent. Kitchen was well equipped. Lovely and warm. Nicely appointed bathroom. I would thoroughly recommend and would happily stay there again. Just a few minor caveats. If you're of limited mobility you will struggle with the stairs into the bathroom. The WiFi is very basic and if you've got multiple people using it you could struggle. The TV is quite old school and not SMART so we couldn't stream from our phones. I'm well over six feet and the doorways were quite low but I soon got used to ducking! But these are just very minor issues and we had a great stay overall.

  Absolutely loved this cottage, it was cosy but had everything we could have wished for.

  Small but very well equipped kitchen. Good sized living room with dining area. Bathroom spotlessly clean with generous walk I shower and bath. Super view from both bedrooms, I was in the second room with comfy single bed. We enjoyed sitting outside on the front seat in the morning sunshine. Good location for Eden Project and the Lost Gardens, which were both well worth visiting. The cottage is tastefully decorated throughout. The small clean beach is a short walk down a very steep hill, but you could take the car to the paying car park at the bottom .

  This was our 4th stay at Driftwood Cottage, it’s becoming a cosy home from home.

  Everything we could possibly need, very well equipped & comfortable. Wonderful sea views & dawn chorus - great view of sunrise too! Major Supermarkets & petrol stations close by. Walking distance to the beach - which is gentler if you walk through the field (sometimes has sheep/lambs/cows in it) & along coast path rather than the steep road. Nice walk along to Duporth beach - we had it all to ourselves! Still finding new places to explore - this cottage is a great base - and a guaranteed parking space is invaluable. Thank you!

  The cottage was very well appointed in a lovely quiet location with stunning walks across the fields nearby with breathtaking views over Porthpean beach and the surrounding coastline.

  The welcome pack of wine, flowers and a Cornish cream tea was a lovely touch. We would certainly visit again and stay in the same cottage as there are so many beaches and pretty fishing villages like Mevagissey, Charlestown and Fowey....pronounced Foy apparently....to explore in the area all the way down to the Lands End peninsular. A visit to the Minack theatre at Porthcurno is well worth the journey down the A30 just to see the stunning location and views. Thank you, Helen, for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage.
