  Lovely Cottage, really well equipped except for the fridge which was far too small for a family of 4 who wanted to self cater!

  The lounge was really comfy and cosy, some really nice touches such as the blankets. Loved the big corner sofa. Bedrooms were lovely and big and beautifully simply decorated with some great finishing touches. This cottage has lots of thoughtful touches such as the storage unit in the bathroom, the basket of board games, the pile of DVD's and the gorgeous scones and clotted cream on arrival. The only slight downside is Kenegie Manor itself, it's all a bit run down, the shop opens erratic hours as does the restaurant. The one night we went to use it they had stopped serving food early as they were too busy..... They did helpfully supply us with numbers of takeaways that delivered to the Manor though!! Amazing area to visit would highly recommend Mermaid pleasure boats - we went out and saw seals and dolphins. Also the Minnack Theatre had a great children's show - fabulous fun for everyone. Would also recommend Tremenhere Landscape Gardens just minutes from Kenegie Manor, we had a lovely lunch there and beautiful and interesting gardens.

  We really enjoyed our stay at Potters by the Sea!

  Sue and Michelle have created a little gem here - it's been well thought out, it's modern and with everything that you'd need for a great stay. The decor is tastefully done too, it's stylish and it's very comfortable. Great care has been taken to get this right for the guests and they've done just that. The cream tea on arrival was a lovely touch too. What was also great was the courtesy call on arrival day, from Sue & Michelle, to see that everything was ok and to answer any questions that we might have. They were friendly and chatty - it's evident that they care for the property and the guests, really wanting you to have an enjoyable stay, which we did. You can access Land's End, the SW Coastal Path and Sennen Cove on foot, as well as getting on bikes - we went to a number of places including the stunning Porthcorno Beach and Mousehole. we really didn't need to use the car at all, which was how we hoped it would be. I would definitely stay at Potters by the Sea again, if we were to re-visit this area.

  We understood that Bell Cottage was situated within a Holiday Park and that the property was in a terrace, what was not made clear was that this cottage although privately owned was one of a considerable number of similar cottages.

  I doubt we would have made the booking had we realized this. There was no privacy to sit outside and the garden furniture needs replacing. We noted your advice to park thoughtfully - it was a shame other residents did not and on a number of occasions when returning after a meal out we had to park in the main car park. A big advantage was that the cottage was cool in the living room and the sofa was very comfortable and was throughout very clean. It was a nice touch to have flowers and the biscuits and fruit juice. We lost WiFi on the Thursday and the owners were really kind and helpful and arranged for an engineer to visit which we really appreciated. The downside for us was the location, parking and we felt the price was somewhat steep. However this was Cornwall following a pandemic and in the height of season but we do feel your description of the cottage is not truly reflective.

  The cottage itself was presented absolutely beautifully.

  The owners had gone above and beyond to make the Appartment as homely and comfortable as possible. It was decorated in a very tasteful nautical style. The owners rang us on our way down to Cornwall and gave very clear directions to the property. We were greeted with a lovely cream tea, home made scones, clotted cream and homemade jam even the tea and milk was provided! There was very high grade antibacterial spray provided plus hand sanitiser. The Appartment was situated in a mixed residential and holiday let small stone complex just off the main A30 which made it really handy for exploring southern Cornwall. The only downsides were the slightly damp smell in the bedroom, the washer drier didn’t seem to function correctly and there was quite a bit of dust That had been overlooked in the nooks and crannies even though the rest of the Appartment was very clean!

  This holiday was absolutely brilliant and we will definitely be going back as soon as we can!

  The house was spotless and so modern with a beachy feel, with lots of added extras like a yummy cream tea on arrival! It was in the perfect location, so close to the beach, pubs, shops and amenities, but offered a quiet a secluded get away that you can actually see the sea from! What more can you ask for! Everything was beyond hotel quality, and I have told my partner we definitely need new duvets and sheets after such a lovely nights sleep. The best of all was that it was doggie friendly which is a rarity to find in these parts, our little dachshund absolutely loved running in the waves, and she even had some treats on arrival which was very kind! I cannot stress enough that this is a true Cornish gem, and Michelle and Sue were so lovely when they spoke to us on the phone and so helpful, it really is a treasure we wish we had discovered sooner!
