  Nice big property with amenities.

  Everything we needed, including lovely linen and towels. I was very glad to see these are now provided. Good location and nice to have a garden. Parking difficult on driveway due to raised kerb and driveway ledge - when we tried to park on this to keep the cul-de-sac clear, the car grounded on the driveway and so had to park on the road. Neighbours were very understanding and accepting thankfully. There is confusion with regard to information for this property - Sykes Cottages give different details to the John Bray holiday let company, who also appear to look after the property e.g. whether there is linen/ towels available and the time of departure on the final day i.e. Sykes state 9.30am and information in the Cottage from Bray states 9.00am. Information needs to be made consistent to avoid worry and confusion; I was worried the time prior to our holiday and journey down as to whether we would arrive and there would be no linen provided due to the confused information. We would also comment that we had felt the Sykes 9.30 departure was early and so even more suprised to see the Bray information stating a 9.00am departure. This is a very early departure for the final day; we rent holiday accommodation frequently and the departure time is usually a far more reasonable 10.00am. The information states this is to meet Covid regulations, but we do feel this is no longer a valid reasoning. Pre-covid procedures for cleaning should have been at a standard where a 10.00 am departure and 4.00pm arrival is adequate time for property preparation.

  We were extremely disappointed when we arrived at the property, it was filthy.

  There were old cobwebs all around the doorframe and key safe, upon entering the property we were greeted with a musty smell and we were disgusted to find trodden in crisps still in the carpet of the twin bedroom, dust in the kitchen and chewing gum stuck on the bunk beds. After spending an hour cleaning it, we were able to unpack and settle in. This is when we discovered the broken shower. The property is advertised as having a shower over the bath, however this is a shower head attached to the tap, with a broken holder. You are not able to stand to take a shower or use it due to it being broken. The property is in some dire neeed of modernization and general upkeep. The kitchen does however have a good stock of equipment and the washing machine is very handy. After reporting these issues to Sykes, I was called by an agent who offered to send a cleaner which would have been useless as I had already cleaned up the mess. I was also asked if I would have been happy for the shower to be fixed to which we agreed, however this did not materialize due to waiting for a part. This problem could have easily been fixed by a trip to Screwfix!! The location of this property is it's saving grace. It is a short walk down into Port Isaac and is a good base for exploring the surrounding area.

  We had a wonderful stay at Caelum.

  The bungalow was spacious, clean and comfortable. It was well maintained and looked to have been recently redecorated. The location is perfect as it's in a quiet cul de sac but only a short walk to the village centre with its harbour, shops, cafes and restaurants and of course all the locations from Doc Martin! Port Gaverne is also in walking distance and it's just a short drive to Tintagel, Padstow, Rock and many other places. There is a well stocked co-op just round the corner and we found the kitchen well equipped with many pots and pans and utensils so we could easily self-cater. We really enjoyed the garden complete with picnic bench and sea views, perfect for my morning coffee! The Wifi was excellent, useful as phone signal is sketchy in Cornwall, and with 3 TVs in the property we were able to enjoy streaming a movie or 2 in the evening. We would certainly revisit and would recommend this property to others.

  What a great find.

  Perfect base to visit family and some nice walks. The option to wash our clothes after a torrid day was a bonus as the weather one day was horrendous. There was a lovely wood burner that sadly was too mild to light but cottage was cozy enough. The kitchen was well equipped and the lovely hosts were very thoughtful and left jam scones and clotted cream (see input the jam first) which was lovely to have with the tea and coffee provided. There was only one slight hiccup that was nothing to do with the property. The neighbouring property had a water leak and the workers had to dig a trench to sort which we had to traverse to exit property this was resolved by the time we returned. Will definitely return to this beautiful cottage. Thanks all involved
