What our customers say about their holidays

  We very much enjoyed our stay at Deja Blue - the property and the site were perfect for our young family.

  I liked the private patio that this property offered in addition to the communal grass areas where children could play. My hesitation for cleanliness was the amount of dog hair we kept coming across all week as the property if pet friendly. The property was clean to standard when we arrived but as soon as you start using a place, the dog hairs get dislodged. There was so much I had to sweep at least 3 times and another time hoover - I didn't expect to be doing that on holiday. As a pet free family I would reconsider booking a pet friendly property in future. The building itself though was just what we needed and very well equipped. The only other downside was the hot water situation. It seemed to be very limited. It couldn't cope with 2 showers of a morning, and sometimes there was no hot water for washing dishes. We really had to forward plan with the hot water boost which my husband managed to work out. That said there was no hot water one evening and had to bath out baby over the sink having used a kettle to heat the water - not ideal. If the property was pet free and the water system fixed then it would be the perfect holiday! We had a very enjoyable stay there on all other fronts.

  Arrived to a lovely clean cottage, crisp white bedding and fluffy towels.

  The double bed is very comfortable however I personally would have liked it to have had a mattress protector on. The kitchen is equipped with everything needed for self catering, the one thing I would comment on is due to it being so well stocked there is no designated free cupboard for groceries and guests will have to empty one to find space to store things. Unlike a previous comment I found the leather sofas comfortable and loved the quirky octopus lamp. Lots of games and books provided for quieter moments. Have stayed in several different cottages now as family live local, most of which leave some form of welcome pack for your arrival. Although this wasn’t the case here it is reflected in the price of the cottage as it is very competitively priced for the same standard of accommodation. The only thing I didn’t like and it is personal to me not a complaint was the bunk bed. My Husband is a restless sleeper and sometimes I need to have my own space and wasn’t comfortable in the bunk. Had a lovely week, the weather was kind and we had dinner on the picnic benches several evenings.

  Lovely peaceful location in beautiful grounds.

  The property was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. It was just a short drive away from Falmouth town centre and some lovely beaches. A few small negatives that would be easy to sort out to make stays in the future better: We took our 2 small dogs and the garden wasn’t secure, which meant that we couldn't have the french doors open. An extra panel of trellis would solve the problem. As mentioned in other reviews, for a family of four we did need to use the booster to have enough hot water for everyone to have a short shower in the morning and to do the washing up in the evening. We looked at the timer for the water tank and it didn’t look as though we could adjust the time that the water was heating up, which was a shame. Once the red light lit up indicating that the water heater was on, we then used the dial to boost the hot water for an additional hour. One other small niggle was that the bunk beds were a bit rickety! Possibly tightening the bolts would sort that out. Other than that, we had a lovely stay, and would like to return in the future!
