  A lovely place to stay, with plenty to do.

  Having the private beach was a real bonus as no need to get in the car if planning a day at the beach. Our grandson enjoyed the play area and had lots of fun together with children from the other cottages. The cottage was as described, and yes small but adequate for us and our grandson. We struggled to sleep well due to the small double bed which I had read about in previous reviews but chose to ignore hoping this issue may have been addressed.The cottage is nicely decorated and fairly well equipped, the towels were lovely and soft and although small , the bed was comfy. Our dog was also well catered for, treats, poo bags and even a towel. The animals were very friendly ,well cared for and enjoyed being fed on a regular basis (food available from the shared utility room). We didn’t have a problem with the wi-fi or mobile signal as was previously mentioned in reviews. Staff very friendly and seldom seen so not intrusive in any way. The location is excellent, plenty of walking directly from the farm and a very short drive to Ilfracombe for supplies or day out etc. Also walking distance to local attractions and eateries. All in all a fabulous place to stay and highly recommend.

  We throughly enjoyed our stay at 5 Parc Terrace.

  Newlyn is a lovely village with lovely restaurants (Mackrel Sky Seafood, The Bridge) Café (Duke St Cafe) and Pubs (The Swordfish) all of which are dog friendly. The house is in a perfect location to walk to Penzance and Mousehole and a bus route which runs through can also be used to get to other areas/sights of Cornwall. This information written in the welcome pack would have been useful. The house was on a steep hill, a good way to walk off the food and drinks, and we were lucky with parking to have had a pace on the road just outside the house. The house itself was decorated lovely, clean and was everything we needed for a week with our dog. The gifts on arrival were a lovely touch! Thank you for a lovely week and we would definitely recommend to stay here as a base for exploring Cornwall

  I can't complain about the cleanliness as this was spot on apart from a filthy grill pan in the cooker.

  No dressing table so very difficult to get ready and do hair and make up. Living room very uncomfortable. The 2 sofas are past the best and once your on them your in a hole and the tv is housed on the wall very high up! Felt unable to relax and it gave me a bad neck. No tv upstairs at all which won't be an issue to all but was to me. These are all issues that can be easily addressed. Beds were comfy. Main bedroom is on the main road side which is also on a bus route which can get quite noisy. Again if your a light sleeper this won't be for you Traffic struggles to get up and down this very steep bank. You can't park outside but we always managed to park close by but if your a nervous driver this won't be the place for you.... Lovely touch of scones and wine on arrival though.

  The cottage is very well furnished with the exception of the bed in the main bedroom which was narrower than a normal double bed.

  However the living area was very cramped and it was necessary to move furniture for comfort. The toilet brush was broken and cobwebs on the bedroom ceiling gave doubts about the cleaning regime, also despite being, quite rightly, asked to clear up after our dog there wsa a large amount of goose droppings in the parking area and by the cottages. While this can be expected in fields on a farm by holiday cottages and parking it is not acceptable. As there is to mobile phone signal there it was not good that there was no on-site contact in case of emergency, leaving a mobile number was not much use. All in all we were quite disappointed with Martin Cottage where we had been looking forwerd to staying.

  The cottage was lovely, as was the location.

  There wer a couple of small issues and one larger one. When we entered the cottage the carpets did noy look like they had been hoovered, also we gave our dog a drink of water some of which spilled on the kitchen/living area floor. When we wiped it up the tissue was filthy so the floor had clearly not been washed. The main issue though was the size of the main bed. It was the smallest double we have ever seen, as such we didn't sleep well all week and neither my wife or myself are large people. Even the pillows stuck out over the bedside tables. I think either one bedside table or smaller ones would be much better with a bigger bed. This was the only thing that would stop us returning
