  The house itself is beautiful and the location idyllic, so peaceful.

  We had some lovely goodies from the cider farm on our arrival which were really nice. Unfortunately that’s where it ends. The smell of urine on the furniture and carpets was overwhelming and the first thing we did was go out and buy air fresheners and candles, we put our a throw over the sofa as it was stained and didn’t feel pleasent. We tried to cook in the kitchen but the extractor doesn’t work so all the alarms go of unless you have windows and doors open. We reported this by phone but never received any reply. The outside back door light doesn’t work and it feels very dark entering the property that way, which we did because there is the utility and coat hangers there. The second week my son complained of a rash on his arms and back, to our horror we discovered bed bugs in his bed. He changed rooms but that was the same. He had to sleep on the sofa downstairs. There is cobwebs all over the velux windows, while one is high the others are within easy reach and need to be cleaned. The shower whilst big needs bleaching around the bottom as there is black discolouration on the sealant. This would be an amazing place if it wasn’t for the cleanliness.

  We booked a last minute break at Dune Haven and it was a great choice!

  The accommodation has been very tastefully done out with comfortable beds, good quality bedding and comfy sofas. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking in and included a dishwasher and washing machine which is always nice! The outside space was also well thought out with patio table and chairs on a large decked area which was a real sun trap, and also a small lawned area which we also made use of for sunbathing. The hosts also provided a BBQ and charcoal which we made good use of. We were also provided with an excellent welcome hamper of local produce including cornish tea, coffee, fudge and it included doggy treats for Buster dog, who was very appreciative! A nice touch and one of the best welcome hampers we've ever had. The location is ideal too, sitting a couple of minutes drive outside Perranporth which has a lovely beach, some nice little shops and a well stocked Co-op and is 1 min from the road into Newquay, which is 10 mins down the road.There are plenty of tourist attractions nearby so it's ideally placed for a family holiday. We would all recommend this cottage as an excellent base for a holiday, and would certainly book here again.

  What a beautiful little home from home Dune Haven is.

  It’s perfectly located to access the stunning beaches at Perranporth and only a few miles from Newquay. The house itself is really well equipped and is spotlessly clean. It’s perfect for a family because it offers plenty of space for everyone to have their own perfect quiet spot. I loved reading in the conservatory in the late afternoon following a busy day at the beach. Dune Haven is a dog friendly cottage; you really won’t need to bring anything for your four legged friend because Sammy provides dog bowls, towels and treats!!! Plus the rear conservatory entrance is a really excellent space to dry them off (dogs and kids) before they come into the house. The back garden is very secure and it is private, with good quality furniture to dine outdoors, which we did a lot because we had beautiful weather. We’ve stayed in dozens of holiday cottages in the UK and Dune Haven is up there with the best. Thank you Sammy for a perfect stay and for your generous hospitality. The Caseys, Plymouth.

  We loved our stay here!

  The kids (10, 12, 13) had a great time with the pool table and there was plenty of space for the grown-ups (me, my husband, BIL, FIL) to hide from the noise. Excellent garden for the dogs, lovely furnishing inside the house, well-stocked kitchen. There are a few small things we would have liked - my husband and I both have quite sensitive skin so had to wash our sheets because they were either cleaned in biological washing powder or heavily starched. A washing line in the garden would have been really useful (the one in the downstairs loo didn’t have enough room) and a recycling schedule pinned somewhere would have been helpful (or for the management company to keep an eye on it) - we looked it up on Cornwall council’s website but clearly other recent guests had not so there was a bit of a backlog outside. These are really small things though, and we’d totally recommend this house to anyone wanting to stay in the area - especially if they love Rattler like we do!

  Beggars roost is an interesting property with lots of space .

  I booked it for Xmas and it worked out well for 6 people. It is overlooking an active cemetery which is worth being aware of ,I felt I was intruding on families visiting there loved ones at times. It was a bonus the property had a games area , playing pool was a highlight. Be careful with the fridge it seems to over freeze . A good time was had at beggars roost and I’m sure in the summer is a great base for visiting other places. Only real criticism we paid a lot as it was Xmas time and would have appreciated a welcome pack which is always a nice touch when you first arrive at a new holiday property ,we were left some milk and couple of bottles of cider from the cider barn but know welcome… enjoy your stay …. Or maybe some tea bags and bread would have been a nice touch and one often done in other places I’ve stayed . That said it was good fun to get away at Christmas for a nice change
