  I booked this staycation as a treat for my Daughter and my grandson.

  On arrival to the property it became clear there were no laundry facilities on site to wash clothing during their stay and I was told by the owners a launderette would have to be used which was a 15 minute walk from the property and with it being a self catering property with no onsite laundry facilities this was strange. Also having to make regular trips to launder wet water gear and towels used for the beach regularly was not ideal and caused more expense as well as taking time throughout the stay which is far from ideal. There is also no way of drying wetsuits after use in the sea as no outside hanging space. Also an iron was provided in the property but no ironing board to use with it? Also with regular trips to the beach throughout the stay and no vacuum in the property to clear up sand debris off footwear was a nuisance with just the use of a dust pan and brush. You would have to ensure you have plenty of extra beach towels and clothing to last during your stay if you wish to not use a local launderette during your stay. Also no dishwasher so the facilities provided are pretty basic which does not reflect well in the rental cost per week. Fabulous location and great heating but the other factors I’ve mentioned were a huge let down and I feel it should be made known in the property details about the lack of laundry facilities onsite and cleaning facilities to keep the property tidy during a stay here. Otherwise it’s in a great location.

  Just stayed here for a week.

  There was a few problems on arrival: 1: there was cobwebs and spiders in the bedroom, bathroom and living kitchen area 2: ants on the floor in the kitchen area 3: the patio area was very over grown (nothing like the pictures shown) 4: there is a cat which is not mentioned in the description. (Our dog doesn't like cats) When we knocked on the door and mentioned these problems to the owner we were told the patio area is a wildlife one and the weeds are too much to maintain, there shouldn't be cobwebs as she had just spent three hours cleaning the property, the birds like eating the ants and she couldn't do much about the cat other than say he doesn't go in the patio area so wouldn't be a problem. ( The cat does go in the patio area as we found out one morning when we took out dog in luckily on a lead) The owner could tell we wasn't happy and went and got the hoover to suck the cobwebs up, put any powder down outside and starting trimming the over grown patio area. The owner also said over the weekend her husband would mow to make a path for us, it never got done. We couldn't sit outside or let our dog off the lead due to it being so over grown or our dog chasing the cat. One thing about the description that is right is it's in a good location, easy access to crantock beach and fistral beach.

  The cottage was delightful but I think more attention to detail is required for the price of the property.

  The furniture is tired. The settee in the front room has stains on it and although comfortable to sit on I felt a little uncomfortable because of the way the cleanliness made me feel. The bed although comfortable squeaked every time you moved…this needs looking at. The fridge had been cleaned with bleach prior to our arrival so smelt of bleach…fridges shouldn’t be cleaned with bleach. For some reason we couldn’t get the fridge to work…it kept freezing the food. The garden was nice but could be lovely with a bit more attention to detail. And it would have been nice if the garden furniture had been cleaned prior to our arrival. The conservatory was lovely but the skylight needed cleaning. Lots of cobwebs and dead flies. The bathroom had very large cobwebs in it. Overall the place is nice, cosy and peaceful but as said it needs a bit more TLC to make it better. It’s in a lovely location and we would stay again for that reason.

  Great location, within waking distance to the beach.

  The place was really clean. I’d alerted the owners to there being no oven gloves and fish slice and the next day both were provided for us. Both us and our dog were made to feel very welcome. And the enclosed garden space just for us to use was brilliant for our dog The owners also offered their garage to store our sports equipment. The place has a generous parking space off road with loads of room for our van. The wifi was intermittent, so I wouldn’t recommend if you needed to work from the accommodation. It would be great if there was a vacuum cleaner availble as we took our dog to the beach a lot and the place got quite sandy. The only warning to other guests is the bathroom door. There are gaps in the slats of the doors which doesn’t give much privacy. It wasn’t a problem for us, but I wouldn’t have liked it if I was in a new relationship!

  Bridge Studio is the perfect place in a beautiful setting.

  Alice and Mike made us feel so welcome, including a scrumptious chocolate cake on arrival! The Studio was immaculate and beautifully furnished. Plenty of walks right outside the door, including a stream running across the bottom of the garden. A number of places state they are dog friendly, but the Studio really was- the garden was completely secure so no worries there. It is the ideal place for sightseeing and it was a delight coming back in the evenings ( and a log burner for when it’s chilly!) We so did not want to leave! We rarely go back to the same place, we like seeing different places, but I think we will be with Bridge Studio. Cannot recommend it enough :)
