“Just perfect”

Harbour Bridge is in one of the most beautiful locations it’s possible to be. The views are just breathtaking overlooking the delightful harbour. From reading earlier reviews I was expecting it to be special but was still blown away by how lovely it really is to sit at the window watching the world go by. It’s a real wow moment when you first walk in and see the view. ...

Harbour Bridge is in one of the most beautiful locations it’s possible to be. The views are just breathtaking overlooking the delightful harbour. From reading earlier reviews I was expecting it to be special but was still blown away by how lovely it really is to sit at the window watching the world go by. It’s a real wow moment when you first walk in and see the view. The apartment itself is very good. Immaculately clean and very well equipped. It’s comfortable and has everything you could need for a great holiday. We didn’t really cook anything as there was such a great choice of eating places nearby but if you did want to cook you would easily be able to do so. The bed was comfy and again those gorgeous views from the bedroom. Shower excellent and always hot water. Wardrobe space limited but manageable. You are so central that everything is either on your doorstep or a few minutes stroll away! The pubs are all lovely and food superb. We loved The Blue Peter and it’s fish and chips! We booked Harbour Bridge quite a long in advance as I am sure that it’s very popular. We will definitely go back if we are ever lucky enough to get in again! Truly a great place to stay and I can’t recommend it highly enough.

“Beautiful apartment with spectacular views over the Harbour.”

Well equipped and extremely clean. The most perfect location you can imagine. We loved the apartment and Polperro equally.

“Excellent location, kitchen equipment very good.”

Problem with hot water dealt with straight away. Bed comfortable. Only criticism would be with the shower which was a bit grubby around the controls and with the grouting within the shower as well, but there was plenty of hot water.

“The apartment was right on the harbour, the centre of Polperro.”

The view from the lounge was one of the most photographed by tourists.It was a delight to survey each morning. The lounge and kitchen were very modern and comfortable but the bedroom was cramped with very little space for clothes. It was necessary to use the quad bike taxi ( £15) to deliver your cases since the parking was a distance and we didn't know the exact location of the apartment .However on leaving, since the apartment is on a road we drove down, which had it's dificulties but it gave us independence. What was the most apprehensive part of the holiday was the parking which is difficult to reach and can be a nightmare since it's virtually a single track lane with very few passing places and a very steep hill to climb each time to use the car .It may be more advisible to park in the main car park at the top of the village and pay the price and walk the 750 m to the apartment.

“The holiday was a very enjoyable holiday which we enjoyed immensely.”

“Fantastic holiday cottage!”

Clean and high spec with views to die for! Quality linen and towels - a winner for me every time! Everything in Polperro is within easy walking distance. Car parking space is a challenge if you arent fit but its great if you want to get some steps and cardio in! Didnt have one bad meal, except the Ship Inn wasnt so tasty, but it was cheap. all of the other pubs are amazing - 3 pilchards, Blue Peter, Crumplehorn inn and the Burger and Pizza outlets yummy too. so many beautiful gift shops and all the eateries have Covid H&S in place. Sophie our host was very good at communicating and all the instructions for the cottage where very easy to follow for arrival and departure and who to contact should there be any issues. i would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a luxury romantic break.

“Fantastic location.”

Ideal for isolation during this period of uncertainty. Extremely well equipped and although it offers limited space it has been so well planned it utilizes the space very effectively.

“Not Harbouring any reservations”

I am sat here now looking at one of the most iconic and beautiful views in the British Isles from our lounge window. I could lean out the window and dip my fingers in the sea. The sound of seagulls and the salty breeze is drifting in This apartment is amazingly tasteful and well thought out. Our host Sophie has been very responsive and helpful. This is the friendliest of villages and the apparent has everything you could think of or need for a perfect couples getaway. Two of the best pubs in the country are within one minutes walk, the Blue Peter and Three Pilchards. The parking is free but a ten minute uphill walk. If this is an issue remember why the view from your apartment over the quayside is so unspoilt and you won't care about a little bit of exercise. The walk to Looe was spectacular and starts at the front door. Two things about me. I am hard to please and honest as my previous TripAdvisor reviews will show. Second I do my research. I looked at over fifty places to say in half a dozen Cornish resorts. Harbour Bridge is perfect. I am not regretting my decision and my wife is impressed with my choice for her birthday getaway If this apartment is available don't waste time snap it up

Newham June 2019

“Building work on harbour noise early in the morning.”

Location of apartment on harbour so building work could be heard all day in in apartment and around polperro. We would not have booked. This should be made clear.

Mr White May 2019

“Wonderful apartment, fab location although the car park is not for the faint hearted!”

- Mr White, May 2019
Mr Mccrum May 2019

“The parking space is a severe hike from the Harbour apartment and the road, (track) out of Polperro is fraught with on coming traffic with no real passing places.”

Given that this is off season in the summer it must be a nightmare. The apartment was as described, but still it was very cramped especially the kitchen area. Fortunately we did not use the kitchen apart from breakfast, but if you wanted to do more cooking in the kitchen then it was not an easy area to negotiate. Overall it is still a nice apartment if you are prepared to compromise on usability.

- Mr Mccrum, May 2019
Mrs Mcvitty May 2019

“Had a lovely week away at Harbour Bridge cottage.”

Excellent facilities everything we needed was there. The bed was the best we've had for a long time, so comfortable. Nice quiet location , no traffic only workmen, would definitely visit again.

- Mrs Mcvitty, May 2019
Mr Johnson May 2019

“Indeed ...”

a very large digger parked on the slipway with its jib position in front of our window and obscuring the view of the harbour ... in contact with your selves and waiting your comment re a partial refund ... not great and would not recommend either Sykes or the accommodation Incident number has been raised by yourselves

- Mr Johnson, May 2019
Mr Hopkinson April 2019

“Had a very good weeks holiday , flat was very good and the view and position was exceptional .”

in the harbour area Polperro has no cars and was a real treat

- Mr Hopkinson, April 2019
Mr Atfield October 2018

“Great location, and apartment contained everything we needed.”

Was very clean and comfortable. Reasonably priced and was kept well informed, from time of booking until date of arrival. Would definitely recommend.

- Mr Atfield, October 2018
Mrs Seeney September 2018

“Only slight down side is how far the parking space for this flat is away and the fact that you have to climb up a very steep hill to get back to you car my partner had to fetch the car and pick me up as I have mobility problems.”

Would be much easier to give a discount to harbour bridge tenants on the main car park.

- Mrs Seeney, September 2018
Mr Salisbury June 2018

“Harbour bridge gave us exactly what we were looking for.”

A real escape from the norm.

“just lovely”

The apartment is nicely furnished with lovely deco touches. The kitchen is well equipped (dishwasher, kettle, toaster, oven, microwave) to make a meal at home and enjoy the view over the harbour. The local pubs are very nice and the food very good (I tried the Blue Peter Inn and the Three Pilchards) The storage space for your clothes can be a bit limited due to a small wardrobe but I used the apartment as a single occupant and was not bothered by it. The (steep) walk to the car park keeps you fit ;-) but since parking in Polperro is very limited or if you use the main car park very expensive, I was pleased to have my own little space to leave the car. The village shop provides you with your basic grocery. I would definetely come again...Harbour Bridge is a little gem

“Fantastic apartment fantastic polperro”

Ms Schaeffler March 2018

“Habour Bridge is a lovely apartment in the beautiful village of Polperro.”

The apartment has everything you want for a holiday: fully equipped kitchen, TVs (living room and bedroom) nice furniture, nice deco touches...and the view is fantastic :) the storage space is a bit limited due to a small wardrobe, but I used the apartment on my own so I was not bothered. The walk uphill to the car park keeps you fit ;-) but since parking is limited in Polperro I was pleased to have my "own" space would definetely come again

Harbour Bridge is a perfect positioned luxury apartment over looking the harbour perfect for a romantic getaway.It is furnished to a very high standard with luxury Bed,bed linen and towels.The apartment is perfectly equipped to have a romantic meal at home,but if you prefer to eat out the apartment is right in the heart of all that polperro has to offer.There are cafes,restaurants, pubs and bakery just outside the front door the so you can have freshly made croissants for breakfast and pick up scones for afternoon tea we did this on more than one occasion.Also take a trip along the coastal path to take in the the spectacular views of our wonderful coastline.
