  Unfortunately this is my first bad review.

  Upon arrival there was left over food from who I can only assume is the owners of the property, as this was a last minute booking I assume the fridge and freezer was not emptied. The floors were filthy, after cleaning them the cloths were black. The tumble dryer is broken, the sofa was awful, old and uncomfortable. The rug stunk of old dog. Although the garden was lovely, we did not live out there. The heating is off, even though it was freezing. It would not allow us to turn it on, the covers were as thin as a piece of paper, this was May time we stayed and ourself and the kids had to sleep in dressing gowns. The owners lived in the garage on the drive way which was a bit weird to say. After what I thought was an awful stay I was presented with an invoice for a broken sofa!!!!! Which was £30 by their neighbour to fix apparently. The invoice was from SILVER MARIGOLD local computer repairs!!! After ringing these people at 12:56pm they laughed at me when I asked if they repaired sofas, in which I then explained about the invoice they quickly backtracked and said they were a friend. After the call I phoned Sykes Cottages at 13:13pm and if by magic the invoice was cancelled at 13pm. You can see the rip in the sofa was a scam and I have reported this in hopes nobody else gets scammed like us! I would never recommend this place and I’m so disgusted in the way they have sent an old photo of a ripped sofa to pretend it was from me.

  We had the most wonderful week at Trerair over the New Year. It is incredibly comfortable, well-located and thoughtfully done, with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Everything has been thought of including the smallest details. The big dining table was perfect for long, memorable meals with friends or family and each room was warm, cozy and full of character! Trerair was the perfect base for the many activites Rock has to offer from beautiful walks and surfing to beach days, golf and fantastic pubs and restaurants. That said, some of our favourite moments were spent at the house, relaxing in front of the fire, playing games and making the most of the beautiful house. There were many comments about it being ‘the best New Year ever’ and I can definitely say that the house played a huge part in making it such a special and unforgettable few days.

  Shinnel House is een prachtige locatie. Middenin de natuur, en omringd met een enorme tuin waar je heerlijk in kan wandelen en spelen (de kinderen genoten ervan om steentjes in de rivier te gooien of dammen te bouwen in het beekje dat midden door de tuin stroomt). Er zijn altijd een boel vogels te zien vanuit de keuken en er is een prachtige kamer met een groot raam vanwaar je heerlijk op een regenachtige dag kan lezen en naar buiten kijken, of je ochtendyoga kan doen alsof je middenin de natuur bent. Wij hebben erg genoten in ieder geval. Het huis is van binnen ook heerlijk ruim en gezellig ingericht. Er zijn ook genoeg boeken aanwezig om je niet te hoeven vervelen. Wij raden Shinnel House van harte aan als plek om Schotland te ontdekken en op de dagen dat je niet op stap bent heerlijk van het huisje en haar omgeving te genieten.

  An idyllic home with beautiful interiors. The house is perfect for family groups and friends, with each bedroom offering privacy, en-suites and extremely comfortable beds. It is in a prime location; a mere few minutes to the shoreline and even closer to the shops. A lovely walk can be done from the house round to Polzeath along the coastal path. I couldn’t recommend it enough, I had such a lovely stay here. It was so cosy by the fire and we had some great dinners in the spacious conservatory.

  Such a lovely and well kept property.

  Comfortable beds and great showers and a well stocked kitchen with pots, pans and utensils. Immaculately kept garden with a lovely sun trap at the top and great to sit outside in the peace and quiet. Great local pub with delicious food a few minutes walk away, doesn’t open on Mondays and Tuesday but the friendless and food were def worth a visit or two. Location was great for days out to the seaside and country walks. We would definitely recommend this lovely house.
