“We have stayed at Joylands several times over the past few years, the location is perfect for a stroll to Argal Lake or a steady stroll to Falmouth, both the town and beaches.”

The location is ideal for visiting the far south west be it, Lands End, The Lizard or St Ives. The bungalow is reasonably furnished and has all the necessary items to make the holiday complete.

“Absolutely loved Joylands so much so we've just booked again for next year!”

Lovely relaxed cottage, really well equiped, set in a beautiful setting only a few miles out of Falmouth and close to Swanpool beach. I will say the the drive was expectionally steep so my husband just parked on the street outside the bungalow. We had a very enjoyable holiday and we're looking forward to returning next year.

“Beautiful bungalow, very well equipped.”

Comfortable beds. Lovely garden. Located in small village with good pub serving good reasonable priced food. Another restaurant in the village. Also small shops & hairdressers within a few hundred yards. Would definitely recommend & would be very happy to use again if we come back to Cornwall. Bonus a bus runs through the village which takes you to Falmouth from there you can catch buses to various other places in Cornwall incluing Truro, St Austell, Redruth. (Doesn’t run on Sundays). All in all fantastic place.

“We found the recycling and collection of rubbish difficult and complicated.”

..where does the general rubbish go? No lids, fortunately it did not rain. Apart from that we had a lovely comfortable 10 days at “Joylands” and would definitely recommend it.

“The original listing showed it had 3/4 acre garden, this simply isn't true - it's a small garden about 50ft by 40ft, however, Google Satellite showed this clearly and we didn't need a large garden, but the listing HAS SINCE BEEN CHANGED from when we booked about ten days ago!”

Hence my rating. "A delightful bungalow in a leafy quiet road on the outskirts of Falmouth, set in 3/4 acre of enclosed garden. Two miles from Swanpool beach. Plenty to see and do in the area. Truro 12 miles." The bungalow was warm, plenty of hot water, clean and otherwise exactly as described. I couldn't find instructions for the recycling, apart from a scribbled note so this should be clearly explained. We found the m/wave instructions above the fridge after a few days - (which was a lovely large one with freezer below). Shower was excellent, plenty of towels etc. It really could do with some coat hooks in the bathroom for your clean clothes after a shower. It was a great base for touring around the foot of Cornwall with loads of walks from the property, on the whole we were very pleased and had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. Locals very friendly too.

“Very good cottage close to Falmouth.”

Used this as a base for visiting family nearby in Falmouth so ideal for us. We were a bit surprised to find only one teaspoon and no egg cups but having left a note when we vacated the cottage, am sure this will be rectified. Beautifully clean throughout. Think it might be good to warn people when booking that the driveway is VERY steep, in case someone has an infirmity. Luckily no problem to us

“There needs to be darker curtains in the bedrooms as it is too light in the mornings.”

The seating in the living room is not to comfortable. One of the so for rooms had a double duvet on the bed which my stepson kept getting tangled in. The guttering is blocked and needs cleaning as when it rained there was a waterfall just outside the front door. There wasn't a welcome book just a notice board with scraps of paper on it. It would be helpful to have games and she's and maybe a few books in the cottage. Also a few more matching cups and glasses as it looks like a jumble sale of glasses in the cupboard. The outside lights are not working.

“The bungalow was light, bright and airy.”

It was well equipped with quality fixtures and fittings. Was glad to see a washing machine but this was not listed in facilities. But the garden was nowhere near the 3/4 acre advertised!

“Well equipped holiday house”

Very few reviews for this so it deserves some positve feedback. We stayed here for a summer holiday to explore south Cornwall. Location is superb - you have the best of both worlds in that you can walk into the countryside from your doorstep, yet Asda is a 5 minute drive away. The bungalow is very well equipped with a decent kitchen - huge fridge freezer and dishwasher. The lounge diner is light and spacious and looks out over the two tier garden and hill beyond. The garden patio gets the morning sun - great for coffee first thing. It is dog friendly and there is a dog friendly pub 2 minute's walk away. 10 minute drive to the nearby spectacular gardens and the beautiful Helford river. Good value for money and highly recommended.
