What our customers say about their holidays

  We have stayed in many properties in Porthleven over the years. This was the second time that we’ve stayed in St Michael’s. We chose it this year primarily because there is a downstairs bedroom and bathroom which was ideal for our elderly guests and the garden with it’s wonderful view. Two things that were disappointing is that the window in the ceiling above the kitchen window still leaks, as it did in 2019 and that the bedroom decorations really do need to be updated. A first for me was to find a note asking us to strip all the beds and bag the bedding up before we left. I’m sorry but we didn’t do that. a) we didn’t have time as we were requested to vacate the property by 10am, and b) the cost of hiring this cottage included this service in the first place. That all said, on balance, we would probably return again if this sleeping style of accommodation was required.

  Location, availability of a parking space, and view from garden was excellent. Walks locally are beautiful. Local shops very good. Property itself was tired and could do with decorating and updating (leaking taps etc) and 2 days of managing the leaking kitchen window should not be a part of a holiday. No internet/Wi-Fi for the weeks holiday which was known about before we arrived but not communicated to us. Welcome pack of a small amount of milk and coal/logs would have been helpful to tide you over first night, as would instructions on how to operate heaters, kitchen one never did work. Check out time was 10am however cleaner knocking on door before this time!! Overall we had a lovely holiday due to location

  The house was very well furnished with good quality furniture,the only thing was the back bedroom double bed there was barely enough room to get down the sides of the bed. Much better layout would have been twin beds with cabinet inbetween but it is up to the owner how they dress their own properties. One small gripe I have and that is I emailed the office twice to ask what to do with rubbish and the key at the end of the holiday and I had no reply to either of my emails which I felt was very poor service. I couldn't find any info in the folder, other places we have rented have an info board in the kitchen. Location fab, house overall fab,Porthleven fab as always and that is why we come back again and again

  There were things that could have been better e.g. the damp smell in the downstairs bedroom and the condensation on the rear windows. So some 'tlc' is obviously needed. However, it is an old property and it is November so windows could not be left open to compensate. The television did not work through the hub but it worked through the Samsung screen on IPlayer. Having commented on what we thought could be improved, we must say that we really did enjoy the week - particularly as the weather was kind to us and we could use the garden with its 'amazing views' every day. The cottage is also quaint and has a quiet calm to it - which we found most refreshing.

  Ocean Blue is an amazing spacious holiday retreat. Providing everything required for a relaxing and therapeutic holiday. Outstanding views of the ever changing sea from the lounge and balcony & downstairs patio, tranquil walks on the beach, and walks along the coastline. Whilst in a few minutes you can walk to the Harbour and a wide range of shops and restaurants and local Bus service. We were sad to leave but looking forward to returning next year. Ocean Blue is definitely THE PLACE to get away from it all. Thank you for sharing you beautiful home.
