    There’s dust everywhere on the skirting boards on the chair legs and on the floors .There are spiders cobwebs on walls with dead spiders in and the kitchen floor is disgusting as one of your reviews ihas pointed out. You just have to wipe it and it’s black with grease and dirtThe under bedding hasn’t obviously been washed for many reservations. Nearly all over the property from Windows to curtains you can see it’s not been cleaned thoroughly since we came last in February our previous experiences of this property is its always been on the dirty side if you look closely There appear to be many changes of cleaning staff that we’ve seen and to add this bad experience we arrived on the 13th of June and we’re waiting outside and the property had not been cleaned by 4:10 pm when we were to check in at 4:30. The cleaning staff arrived just after and came in did a very superficial clean and left for property just after 4.45 looking through the windows prior to entry you could see the property was in an awful state. The microwave doesn’t work properly. Lightbulbs are missing in the kitchen ceiling since Februaryt the kitchen clock still hasn’t had a replacement battery the whole thing looks very dated in 1960s in the kitchen and could do with a complete refurbishment dog hairs are on the sati and is the smell of dogs because of all it can’t be very hygienic As for the outside dining table and chairs they are dreadful and mud all underneath

    - Roy, June 2026

    Thank you for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback. I am particularly sorry to read this given that you have stayed at The Hinges many times over the years. I genuinely appreciate guests who choose to return to the property, and because you know The Hinges so well, I take your comments about the decline in standards particularly seriously. The cleaning you describe is simply not acceptable. I have spoken directly with the cleaning company responsible for the property and made very clear the standard I expect, both for normal changeovers and for periodic deep cleans. I have also made clear that problems with the property need to be reported to me rather than being allowed to persist between stays. I have been working through the other points you raised as well. The outside furniture has now been replaced with a new six-seater dining set and parasol, the kitchen clock is working again, and I have bought a substantial number of new items for the kitchen. The other maintenance issues you identified have also been reviewed. I am sorry that on this occasion The Hinges did not live up to the property you remember from your previous stays. I value the fact that you have returned to us over the years, and I hope that if you choose to stay again you will see a real improvement. Property Owner

The property

Nestled deep within the traditional Cornish village of Crantock, you will find No 3 The Hinges.

A light and contemporary holiday home with a modern feel, this beautiful abode is ideal for families or groups of six who seek a relaxing coastal retreat with their four-legged friends.

Be welcomed into a restful sitting room, wonderfully decorated with calming blue hues that complement its seaside setting.

Continue through to the pretty kitchen/diner and uncover a wealth of appliances that sit peacefully within the traditional oak cabinets, sure to inspire many home-cooked meals.

Choose to stay in one of the two well-appointed bedrooms resting on the ground floor; a spacious super-king-size and a homely double, both benefitting from their very own en-suite.

Up on the first floor, an additional super-king-size can be transformed into a twin upon request, providing flexible sleeping arrangements for guests.

Spend warm summer evenings out in the garden with a chilled glass of wine, as the chef of the group takes to the barbecue to prepare a mouth-watering feast.

Make many happy memories with your loved ones on a stay at No 3 The Hinges.

About the location

CRANTOCK

Newquay 4.5 miles.

Crantock is a small Cornish village, just a short walk from the beach, close to the popular resort of Newquay. If you want to escape the crowds, yet still be close to the action, this is the place to be. There's stunning countryside all around and lots of pretty villages to explore; however, it is the coast that dominates. Enjoy superb walks along the coastal path over dramatic cliff-tops, or magnificent surfing on beaches stretching from Watergate Bay in the North to Fistral beach in the centre of Newquay and on down the coast. There are a number of golf courses in the area, as well as National Trust properties, traditional pubs and outstanding restaurants. Newquay itself is a visitor's paradise with a wide variety of shops, pubs and restaurants, plus attractions such as the Sea Life Centre, Newquay Zoo and nearby Dairyland and Eden Project.

Please note: A gardener will require access to the rear garden every Thursday to carry out routine maintenance.
