“The grounds were perfect for the dogs and we all loved going for walks.”

Although I didn’t use the pool, the rest of my family did and loved it. Only negative comment is that there should be TVs in all bedrooms and the bed room furniture could do with a little updating. That said these points are minor, we all loved our time here and would definitely come back.

“The facilities are superb, well thought out for dog owners.”

Very helpful staff if you have any problem, dealt with swiftly and efficiently.

“We have been coming to Helsbury for the past 12 years and always return as we thoroughly enjoy every experience.”

What I would say, is that I do feel that the barn could do with some modernisation in places. Also, some of the kitchen resources are not of a great standard. Therefore cooking a meal can be A challenge and frustrating. The master bed was terribly uncomfortable and left us both aching each morning, to the point that we considered returning home on the Thursday. I think at the price you pay, I don’t think the extra charge to use the sauna is warranted. My little boy loved the pool and the dogs had an amazing time. Thank you for a lovely relaxing week away.

“Ideal for a proper rest and recuperation!”

What a great location, the barn is set in a peaceful landscape with beautiful views over the valley, a real treat just to walk or run out into open fields and along the riverside from the doorstep, so relaxing. And within short drives there is so much to see, such as the stunning Cornish villages of Boscastle and Port Isaac and amazing beaches like Polzeath, which we loved. Westhayes was really comfortable and incredibly clean, you wouldn’t imagine dogs had even been allowed in the house! I couldn’t fault this place it was spotless. Loads of towels too and the most comfortable beds I have slept in away from home, we all got a really proper rest. The kitchen was super-equipped, and the little touches were really appreciated like the fresh flowers around the house, and a range of DVDs for all tastes! And that’s of course without mentioning the stunning swimming pool which kept our teenagers very happy!

“This cottage was amazing!”

! The grounds were perfect for both humans and dogs. We have reactive dogs so the quiet and peaceful area and grounds were perfect for them. The scenery was fantastic. The kids loved the swimming pool and pool table. The cottage was home from home and well equipped. Will be booking again and thank you to the owners for a wonderful holiday
Mrs Blackshaw July 2019

“We settled right in at Westhayes.”

The house was lovely a really great place for a family holiday. Ample space inside and out and nicely set out. Kids struggled with no WI-FI in the house, but managed to adjust eventually!
Mr Fearn July 2019

“Two bathrooms of house were damp & smelled upon arrival we had to leave doors, windows open & fans on for 2 days to air out.”

The property does NOT have wifi as advertised on the website, you have to go to small shed like place in the next property's garden to get any signal and that room was mouldy, dirty & full of dead flies, it was so bad you could not sit in the room as it was like breathing in mould spores. To be balanced, the pool area & grounds were amazing, the best we have ever stayed in, but do not feel the property was worth £ 1648 for a week

Thanks for taking the time to complete your feedback, we have now implemented a state of the art wireless connection to the internet we therefore now have uncontended connections of 30m/b+ in all of our cottages as well as by the pool. Owner relations

“Helsbury Park really do go the extra mile to accommodate dogs.”

The facilities are excellent especially the pool which is way better than a number of good spa hotels I have stayed at. It is not a low cost holiday but they say you get what you pay for and in that Helsbury Park delivers great value especially as we were able to accommodate 5 adults and 4 dogs in what I consider to be a large very well equipped cottage. The WiFi is limited if you need it while on holiday but that is something the owners hope to remedy but they are limited by availability in that area. however there is really good 4G mobile signal there if you need internet access. Overall great holiday in excellent location. i would recommend to anyone who wnats to take their dog(s) on holiday with them.

“What a fabulous week we had here.”

The pool was great and we used it twice a day! The scenery and walks were amazing. Our 4 border collies felt right at home. The best cottage holiday in years! We're going back at the next opportunity.

“...”

Kennel not secure Enclosed area for dog not enclosed Some appliances didn’t work Trouble opening some doors Access is difficult for the elderly More 3 star than 5

Thank you for taking the time to complete your feedback following your recent stay at Westhayes. We've spoken with the owner who has asked us to cover the points mentioned. It would appear the kennel may have been damaged by previous guests, this has now been fixed and we thank you for bringing this to our attention. Following a visit from the housekeeper of Westhayes to check the electrical items, it transpires that they were all working correctly and once shown how to use them we believe you had no further issues. The extreme hot weather during your stay had caused 1 of the doors to swell and become sticky, we will of course look at this further in an attempt to stop this from potentially happening again. We are sorry to read that you did not feel Westhayes was a 5 tick property, all of our properties are tick rated by our experienced property managers and are rated on facilities, fixtures, fittings and a very substantial inventory for each room in the house. We feel Westhayes very much meets the 5 tick rating. The feedback we receive for Westhayes is overwhelmingly positive and we are confident that any issues highlighted are a one off. Owner relations

The property

Turn 'walkies' into a real family adventure at Helsbury Park with a 100 acre back garden or enjoy the indoor heated swimming pool facility with gym and sauna.

When you stay in one of the two stunning barns you can kick off your shoes and put your feet up in front of a roaring fire or wallow in a steaming bath after a hard day's exploring.

Helsbury Park will add the comforts of home to your holiday experience and it won't just be your precious pets that are pampered when you stay in these exceptional properties. Situated in the heart of North Cornwall this unique site is nestled in between three Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty: The Camel Valley, Bodmin Moor and the North Cornish Coast, this superb venue not only offers luxurious accommodation but is also totally dog friendly.

Stroll around the private grounds which include a river, bridge, woods and pasture - it will take you about an hour to loop the whole garden.

Take in spectacular vistas of Bodmin Moor and the Camel Valley with a view of Roughtor and Devil's Jump to the east and the river valley to the south. Westhayes is one of two 200 year old barn conversions which have been modernised to create spacious and luxurious holiday homes.

Refurbished to maximise its charm and comfort using traditional materials such as slate and granite and luxuries such as a range cooker and wood burner for winter cosiness.

The living accommodation offers a generous kitchen/diner and separate sitting room with a stunning galleried staircase in between.

There are two super bedrooms both with king-size four poster beds and one twin bedroom.

The master bedroom has a stylish ensuite bathroom while the other two have ensuite shower rooms.

Built at right angles to Marhayes (which also sleeps 6), the two barns share a front lawn, with an enclosed private area to the rear where dogs can be exercised in a controlled space, along with an outdoor kennel.

What more could you and your four legged friends wish for! For larger groups we also let the adjoining properties: Marhayes (959870) and The Farmhouse (959869), both of which sleep 6.
