Mr Hunter
October 2019

“The apartment was very well equipped/clean and a nice welcome gesture of flowers and a cream tea.”

...

However we felt that the property was in need of re decoration,the furniture was shabby/bulky and could do with being replaced.This included the furniture in the bedroom which was also very dated The TV was placed high on the wall,this made for uncomfotable viewing and could only be viewed properly from the 2 seater sofa,to add to this there were long trailing wires hanging down which you had to negotiate to reach the bookshelves/storage heater. The photographs gave an impression that the sea may be viewed whilst sitting on the patio,this was somewhat correct but only if you stood up and went to the balcony rail. The balcony was unswept/weeds growing through the slabbing/old poor quality patio furniture.I actually weeded and swept the area to make it more acceptable to sit out on. The bathroom had obviouly had a half hearted make over but had cracked tiles in shower enclosure.There was no blind at the window..I had to hang towels to provide this.The shower lacked pressure The key safe neede to be replaced as it was quite difficult to get key out and replace. We have stayed in many holiday apartments and this one was not of the high standard we would have expected

The property

A magical setting for lovers of sand and sea the prestigious Maenporth Estate lies in 29 acres of landscaped gardens and woodland on a hill above Maenporth Cove.

An exclusive estate of privately owned residences, a wonderful outlook over the deeply wooded Maen Valley and its wildlife lake, with views extending over scenic headlands and far across Falmouth Bay awaits.

Boasting excellent recreational facilities, the Leisure Centre includes a 15 metre indoor heated swimming pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, table tennis, pool table and a sun terrace with barbecue and picnic seating.

Behind the Leisure Centre lies an enclosed children's play area and two all-weather tennis courts.

Walk the scenic coast path to Falmouth or Helford Passage, or follow a leafy footpath inland to the pretty village of Mawnan Smith.

Trebah and Glendurgan sub-tropical gardens are within three miles and Falmouth's challenging golf course is two miles.

As an alternative to self catering, enjoy a hearty lunch, evening meal, or a light snack in the top rated Cove Restaurant and Bar.

A beachside cafe also serves refreshments throughout the year.

Wake to the sound of gentle lapping waves or the crashing of a surging tide on tarantreth (thunder beach).

Gaze out through the bedroom window into the secluded Maen valley at the circling crows as they fly undisturbed, walk through the quiet woodland, draw or play board games with the children, let the soft, golden sand and cold water run through your toes.

On long, warm days, relax on the balcony, close your eyes and sip on a cold glass of Chablis, while the birdsong fills your ears and the gentle Cornish breeze takes away the stress of modern life.

On colder days, relax in the warmth and comfort of the Living room and enjoy a mug of tea while reading a Cornish classic.

Whenever you are planning your holiday break, Tarantreth is an ideal choice from which to relax and maximise your experience of Cornwall, and plan your return visit.

Pendennis Castle, built by Henry VIII, is Falmouth's most popular attraction, sited on its own peninsula with superb panoramic sea views. Across from Falmouth harbour is the beautiful town of St Mawes, surrounded by the rocky coves, sandy beaches and lush green countryside of the Roseland Peninsula. Go there by car (15 miles) or take the passenger ferry from Falmouth (15 minutes). For nature lovers there is the Swanpool Nature Reserve, a lagoon and site of special scientific interest teeming with a variety of wildlife. Falmouth offers such a rich variety of landscape and attractions for people of all ages, it is sure to tempt you back time and again.
