What our customers say about their holidays

  I picked this cottage for its location, parking space and cleanliness rating. Location and parking were spot on but I didn’t feel like the cottage had been thoroughly cleaned when we arrived. We found a small t shirt on the guest room chair, a dirty tissue under one of the beds & there was sand & hair in the corner of the bathroom behind the door. The skirting boards and other fittings were also a bit dusty and there was a strong smell of dog food when we arrived so the property would have benefited from a good airing! I know Fowey is an expensive area but I’m just not sure it was worth the best part of £2k for a week! And at that price, I was disappointed to not even have any soap provided in the bathroom, which meant having to go straight to the shops and buy some after a 5 hour drive. Even tge batteries on the Wii console were dead so we had to replace those! Holidays are precious and I know I find other people’s reviews really valuable when I’m deciding on a place so wanted to provide an honest summary. I’m sure we just got a bit unlucky with our week as I know other reviews are very complimentary about the cleaning.

  Overall we were happy with everything Cornish Horizons (aka Original Cottages) did to describe the property and provide support. We were happy with the property too apart from one issue. The very low score on the cleanliness is only because the mattress on the bed had an unpleasant smell (a bit like sweaty feet), which meant we were uncomfortable the first night, until we stripped the bed, stopped using the duvet, and eventually worked out that it was the mattress that smelled, not just the duvet or mattress cover (we thought it was at first it was the duvet, then the mattress cover, but we think they smelled because they had been in contact with mattress). Apart from that, the rest of the property was clean and well presented. I can appreciate that spotting that the mattress smelled bad is probably not something the owner or cleaner would have easily noticed (unless they had tried to sleep in the bed). Hopefully, the owner has done something about the mattress after the comments I called and left with Paige on 0333 0151348 and the note I left on the stripped mattress for the cleaner/property owner.

  Lovely cottage, great location and equipped with everything you could need during your stay.

  As per the description it is a small cottage but it does not feel it once you have settled in. It is short walk to the shops and restaurants and all Fowey has to offer. There is so much choice within Fowey we ended up eating out every night. Due to Covid restrictions you need to book a table if you are going out or else you will be disappointed! Parked in Caffa Mill every day and found a space every day. We bought a weekly rover parking ticket before we got to Fowey so could use it in Caffa Mill and every other long stay car park in Cornwall which we found really useful. A lot of thought has gone into this cottage and making it as welcoming and comfortable as it is. We hope to return and would not hesitate to stay in Serendipity again. Two things to note but did not cause us any issues at all are that the stairs are a little steep, but perfectly useable and the shower is over the bath which is very deep! We had a lovely time in Serendipity and loved it and Fowey.

  Good location, tricky to find down Browns Hill but managed to find it eventually. A few minutes walk downhill to eat out in the evening or buy provisions, bakeries are really good. Don't be put off by the church in close proximity - although it chimes every 15 mins & on the hour, we did not hear it once we were in the bedroom! The shower is amazing with good pressure which was great to use. Dogs loved the outside space, lucky with sunny weather so a nice place to sit out with a good book. Few things would improve which I have suggested to owner - kitchen utensils (e.g. only 1 wooden spatula, 3 cheap bendy knives). Just a few extra details could make this cottage even better. Tip: take a few dishwasher tablets as we only had 3, take kitchen roll, (w/up liquid & sponge is provided) All in all we had a lovely week here in Fowey, and very lucky with the weather :)
