Kernyk

We had a fabulous time at Kernyk.

Amazing property had everything we needed. Sofas and beds very comfortable. Plenty of space, both inside and out. Great walks from the house along the costal path and down to the tin mine. Would highly recommend.

We had the absolute pleasure of staying in Kernyk over Christmas.

Cornwall is magical at any time of year, but especially at Christmas. Kernyk was the perfect base for our stay. The large, well-equipped kitchen had everything we needed to host Christmas lunch, and the cosy downstairs living room with its fire was ideal for relaxing afterwards and eating the Quality Street. The upstairs living room was bright and spacious with fantastic views, and the well-stocked games chest made it a great place for family games. Rinsey was absolutely lovely, and spotting ponies on the headland was a real highlight. We had a wonderful stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return — highly recommended.

Wonderful cottage, amazing location, incredible holiday!

Lovely location for walking from the cottage straight onto the the South Coast Path.

Rooms were clean and felt very homely, lovely touch when we arrived with cream and scones. Lovely, thankyou.

We had a lovely week at Kernyk.

The cottage is welcoming, spacious and quirky and the location is absolutely beautiful. Walk a short distance to the coast path and turn left for Praa Sands with an idyllic beach, turn right for Porthleven with it’s iconic clock tower and pasty shops!

Perfect location, great family and pet accommodation, home from home experience and would not hesitate to book again, would also recommend to family and friends should they wish to visit Cornwall.

Rain or shine, this cottage provided a very enjoyable and relaxing experience.

Very quiet location and well positioned for good immediate coastal walks and 30 minutes by car from pretty much everywhere in West Cornwall.

Nice spacious cottage, 2 lounges a bonus. Great for dogs. Helpful owner. Beds are soft. Sunny garden. Generally very clean. Many thanks.

Needs a frying pan.

This is a great spot to stay with great facilities, massive kitchen and upstairs living room, downstairs living room with fire is always a winner in my book, lots of shops pubs all close by.

Beaches within walking distance and not far to drive to other beaches and towns. I like to visit Cornwall with my family as many times as I can and this is probably one of the best places I’ve stayed

Absolutely fabulous location and cottage had everything we needed.

The separate bathroom a d toilet upstairs we’re very small, and it would have been nice to make more of the living room downstairs rather than having a separate living room upstairs, but overall it was a fabulous week away and we will definitely come back to this location soon!

We arrived to find the cottage overlooking a lovely green with easy parking.

The garden with sea views was spacious, private and quiet with sunny seating on two levels. The kitchen was our favourite place, being bright with morning sun, its large table held our books, maps, sketch pads, iPads along with food, music and wine! It was especially well equipped. The central heating was quick and effective with lashing of hot water. We could see the sea from our comfy bed in the morning, and everywhere was clean and welcoming. Our dogs danced along footpaths bright with gorse and tiny Spring flowers; the local beaches were beautiful and the coves dramatic. In short, Kernyk Cottage is simply a very special place.

Lovely location, good kitchen size and one of the best gardens we have had in 10 years of booking cottages.

Although owner/cleaner reacted and apologised for initial issues, offered to come back out, it is important to flag the following, cupboard for rubbish not emptied of non recycling, only bins in kitchen and bathroom, allows to book for 7, but not enough seating in either lounge, no bin bags, even with not matching, insufficient crockery for 7, towels were dirty and smelt, we had to wash them, dirty load in dishwasher, mess under bed, cobwebs, dirty surfaces, dirty marks on fridge and mould on tiles. Needs some tlc and a deep clean.

Comfortable and cosy cottage with great views.

Perfectly situated for the South West Coast Path.

When we arrived the cottage had not been cleaned.

This eventually got sorted and Sykes agreed to compensate some refreshments at the local pub. However the cleaning was rushed and was not as thorough as I would have expected- and no it’s not a COVID thing, dust on surfaces in bathroom is just not right and then questions rest of cleaning. If not for this would have exceeded expectations. That said the cottage itself was great. The kitchen was a great family space where we could all sit and have fun while cooking etc. the ground floor lounge would benefit from being made brighter but rest of accommodation is great. Garden is good when you have a dog we all enjoyed just sitting out enjoying the sun. Would definitely use again.
