  What can I say, just "wow"!

  This place is incredible, such an eye for detail has gone in to, fantastic furnishings, bathroom and kitchen. The property is in the garden of the owners, but we didn't actually meet them once so felt very private. The hedge between the cottage and their garden has grown high enough now to provide privacy from their garden, but still lets plenty sun onto the patio. The garden is completely fenced/gated so doors can be opened up and the dog could roam free, there is a small lawn area for doggy toileting and washing line. Lots of interesting tropical plants and a full herb bed for seasoning dinner and the BBQ! The cottage is very well insulated so it can get quite warm when the sun gets on it, we tried to shut curtains when we went out to keep it at bay, but you can open massive wide doors and windows when you can back to cool it down quickly. I would recommend a top sheet is provided for the bed as the duvet was very thick and so too hot, we always travel with our own, but would be a nice touch. The water pressure is also quite slow in the shower. In terms of location, it is perfect, set in farmland away from town it's so quiet and peaceful, but only a 5-10 min drive to Porthleven and and Highburrow cliff path. Also ideal location for Lands End and Lizard penninsula. We managed to find plentry of 'secret' beaches no one else was on, even in amazing warm weather, and lots of vegan food (including numerous places selling vegan ice cream for our lactose intolerant doggy, she was beyond happy!) 10 min drive to supermarket in Helston if needed.

  While the property was welcoming enough and kept in a good state to which we kept it, it was smaller than it appeared through the images advertised.

  The parking situation was a little tricky and we sadly damaged the underside of our car. It is advertised as dog friendly which it is however it is not secure at all so be careful letting your dogs outside, also the owners have several dogs themselves who wander down which is fair enough however we sadly have nervous and reactive dogs so caused us a few small issues but otherwise it is set in a nice location for dog walking. Sadly it wasn’t for us really and a further reason for the low rating was being charged £100 housekeeping bond when the property was left as we found it, the money was taken by Sykes without consulting us at all, we sadly had no chance to ask what the issue was and upon contacting them to ask for the images and evidence so we could try to see if there was anything that was indeed wrong that we had missed, I heard nothing back despite contacting them twice. As we cleaned the property before we left and returned everything to its proper place I was understandably upset to have been charged extra money without any explanation from the owners or from Sykes. For us it won’t be something we book again sadly, however I would say that if it is for a few days and you aren’t going to be in the property much then it’s not a bad place to stay. But it is not suitable for any larger dogs in my opinion there really isn’t enough space.

  Just arrived back from a lovely week at the lodge.

  Kay the host is very welcoming & on hand if needed. Gorgeous welcome treats from Terrington tea rooms, try the sweet chilli sausage rolls. The lodge is in a perfect location for visiting lots of neighbouring towns, York, the coast, Malton etc. Castle Howard is beautiful and a short drive away. There are several local pubs, Crown and Cushion was a good find with a pizza place opposite. The Lodge was very clean, beautiful views & animals, a lovely swing seat and of course the hot tub which was perfect to relax in at the end of the day. All looked very pretty with the fairy lights at night and is a good place to view stars weather permitting. The only feedback really would be there was no Internet/WiFi and I had zero signal so couldn't research things. Although it did give me a break from my phone

  Five Stars all round!

  The Coach House delivered on all levels, exceeding our expectations and we had the most amazing week at this luxury holiday home. The property catered for our every need, super clean, extremely comfortable and the owners have gone above and beyond to ensure occupants feel at home and welcome. The property is ideally located and we visited many of the local towns and cities during our stay, with the added bonus of the use of their fabulous gardens, which our dog thoroughly enjoyed, especially meeting the donkeys, chickens and even two little lambs! This was our first time visiting this gorgeous part of England and we would definitely return to The Coach House in the future. A huge thank you to Emma for her warmth and welcoming us onto her property, we hope to see you again soon x

  The place is beautiful - it’s actually larger than my house and so comfortable, fully stocked kitchen with all the facilities you need, the most comfiest beds and bedding & plenty of towels.

  The living room is exceptionally cozy and large. Central heating & a wood burning fire for those cold nights. The hot tub was clean, warm and very relaxing. The venue itself if perfect, quiet & the owners kindly allow you to use their large garden with their rescue donkeys and chickens - my little boy loved visiting them and they are very friendly. It would be perfect in the summer with their Emma went out of her way to welcome us and give us recommendations on what we could do with our 1 year old too. My only warning which isn’t a warning at all is be careful using the toilet at 1am half asleep since this is a period coachhouse, some of the ceilings are low with beams and I smashed my head off them a few times using the bathroom. Entirely my fault!
