What our customers say about their holidays

  We were the first guests to occupy Inny Brook Burrow under new ownership.

  The new owner spoke with me on the phone the day prior to our arrival, on his return home from the property to confirm that everything was in order and awaiting our welcome. It was a holiday with memories we would like to forget. Our findings upon arrival: Accuracy of listing - Not accurate. The listing portrays a pristine 5 tick property. In reality, the condition has clearly deteriorated since the time when the listing was first placed. During our stay, and due to the change of ownership, the listing was briefly readvertised by Sykes as “new”, however, the listing and photos to truly present the property in its current state has not changed. Cleanliness - not clean. Filthy in most areas. Internally: Filthy hard floors, windows, doors, layers of dust and debris on all surfaces and ledges. Pitted black mould on curtains and blinds, stained dirty carpets, hair and debris clinging to the base of curtains. Other areas too numerous to mention in this brief review. Comfort: The listing boasts a riverside camellia garden, an idyllic space to relax? There is not a camellia in sight? There are no flowers at all, apart from living weeds and plastic hanging balls laced with cobwebs, as is the entire rear of the property. The garden furniture is rusty and green mouldy, unfit for its purpose? A totally depressing, unkempt outdoor space. Facilities & Maintenance - listing states entertainment with complimentary movies with Netflix? No Netflix? The property is in great need of a thorough deep clean, replacement of carpets, blinds and garden furniture, and an uplift in decor, both internally and externally. The owner believes that £100 compensation for our totally compromised and stressful holiday is adequate, which is inclusive of payment in recognition of my personal cleaning services, a pre agreed arrangement with the owner that, if I obtained the cleaning materials and equipment, and carried out the basic necessary cleaning, to try and make us more comfortable, I would be compensated for my efforts? This is a true and honest review, my opinion of the cleanliness is not subjective, as has been evidenced by photographs.

  We had a lovely week's stay in Inny Brook Burrow.

  The cottage is really tastefully decorated and well equipped (right down to torches plus spare batteries) . Both human and doggie welcome packs were a lovely touch, and very much appreciated. The outside space is small but all that you would need, and having the stream running past the garden is pleasant. I can just imagine how nice it would be sitting outside listening to the water trickling past with a glass of wine, but since it was February we didn't get the chance! There are recycling bins onsite which is a bonus, saves having to find bins locally. The location is perfect for exploring Cornwall. The only negative comment I have is to echo the other feedback, there is a dampness issue, hence why my review is 4, not 5 stars. Another niggle (but completely out with the owners control) was another guest allowing their dog to run through the front gardens. So if there was any dog poo in the front garden it wasn't from my dogs....

  What a wonderful place this is.

  If you are looking for peace and quiet then you will find it at Honey pot lodge. In a beautiful area of the countryside, but not too far away from anywhere. The lodge itself is extremely comfortable, with everything that you would need. Very high standards of furnishings, well equipped and spotlessly clean. We took our dog, and there are lots of lovely places to go walking. The beaches are all within easy driving distance. The site itself is nice and small, and extremely well maintained. It is so peaceful, truly a very relaxing place to stay. The owner of the lodge was incredibly helpful, nothing was too much trouble, as was the manager of the site. I really can’t recommend this place highly enough, and we hope to return!

  We had a lovely stay at Little Lanes.

  The property was very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the view from the main room and the bedroom. We did not cook a lot but there was all the basic kitchen utensils to do so. We came with our son (16 years old) and, when we arrived, Sue had kindly prepared the fold up bed where he would sleep. The bathroom looked very new and the shower was powerful - highly appreciated after a long day outside. The location of the cottage gave us plenty of options for a one-week stay, from the beautiful harbour of Boscastle nearby, to the large sandy beaches of Bude and the charming village of Port Isaac. We would definitely recommend Sue's property and hope that we will have the opportunity to stay there again!

  Honeypot lodge is part of a holiday village but the location is very quiet, with no light pollution.

  There is a small road immediately outside the village but traffic is very light. The garden is not enclosed so be careful if you have wandering dogs! I understand that the owner may rectify this in the future. Inside was very light and welcoming. Adequate cooking facilities. Good internet, OK phone signal but that depends on your provider. Lovely wet room and waterfall shower downstairs, more traditional bath/shower setup upstairs. Plenty of rugs for the dogs to lie on. Deb was very proactive prior to our stay, texting us lots of useful info and dog friendly beaches. Nearest dog-friendly beach 10 miles away at Black Rock. We enjoyed our stay and recommend it to those who want peace and quiet!
