Bethany Bay View

Fantastic place in a great location.

Highly recommend this place. Stunning garden and well Equipped kitchen.

Fabulous property we have returned for many years now and already booked 2027 stay.

Great position for beach walks and sand dunes as well as easy reach of other beaches like Crantock and Perranporth!

Bethany Bay view is the most amazing place.

Sat on the decking listening to the waves early morning and in the evening so peaceful. Great location near to the fantastic beach of Holywell Bay. Highly recommend. Will certainly be returning

We have stayed many times before and have re-booked for Spring 2026 however, the bed with en-suite was far from comfortable as the previous topper had been removed leaving a hard mattress with buttons sticking in my back!

The duvet was far too thin for the time of year so, unfortunately, my nights were slightly uncomfortable! Everything else was extremely comfortable as always! The property is looking tired but, we understand the up-keep must be extremely hard to maintain but time-wise and financially! The cloakroom outside the kitchen requires a ‘smelly’ leaving in there as it smelt musty! Thanks once again and we’ll be back in May! Xxx

Lovely bungalow near Holywell Bay, great property which we have stayed at yearly for the past 8 years or so.

Quite central for visiting all around Cornwall, not far from Newquay and Perranporth, its like home from home. Well maintained and not overlooked, we love it so much we have booked again for 2026 ❤️

This was our second time staying in this property.

The location and facilities are fantastic and the property a real home from home.

Absolutely great everything.

We're just sorry not to have had time to empty the dish washer. We have friends I. Holywell so met up several times. A in all a fa tactic week and the bungalow just made it all possible. Thank you.

We had the best holiday, and will definitely book again.

Great facilities, amazing big garden and everything we could ask for. Thank you.

This was our 2nd stay at Bethany Bay View, it was just as lovely as the first time, the large garden is especially good for our 2 dogs.

We’ve been extremely lucky to have good weather and was able to sit on the decking watching the sea and the sunsets. Will definitely book to go back

Our 3rd or 4th stay and we have booked again because we love what the bungalow has to offer.

Already booked for next year which confirms our pleasure with the property. A suggestion is that some of the mattresses may be at the point of needing change especially the ensuite room. As I have slept in hundreds of hotel beds over the years that mattress certainly comes low down. Everything else perfect including Tracey who always responds quickly and in a friendly, helpful manner.

Having stayed in two other properties in Holywell Bay Bethany has by far been the best one and reasonably priced.

The large garden was ideal for my 7 month old puppy who enjoyed the different smells around the garden. Only draw back is that the garden is frequented by rabbits and off course the puppy found their droppings every morning. The property manager Tracey dealt with the one issue we had with the outside lighting within 24 hours of being made aware of the problem. My son and his partner were so impressed with the property that they have booked to go back next year.

Bethany Bay was a superb bungalow in all aspects.

Easy walk to a stunning beach, hollywell Bay. We were lucky with the weather, very sunny and warm considering it was October. Would definitely stay again. Bonus was the pub at the bottom of the road a few minutes away.

Lovely cottage and great location.

This was our 3rd time at Bethany Bay and what a week we had!

!! The weather was as amazing as the bungalow! The description of this stunning property does not do it justice as it deserves 5 stars. It is very comfortably furnished with quality fixtures and fittings. It’s also a very spacious property with a lovely wrap around garden and a short walk to the beach and more importantly, the lovely Truguth pub which has been our favourite for many years now! The housekeeper Tracey, is fantastic as nothing is too much trouble. I have no grumbles about cleanliness as it was absolutely spotless! Thank you to all the staff and to the property owner and, we cannot wait to return next year!

All good we have stayed here every year since 2017, just love this bungalow and its situation, already booked again for September 2025

Beautiful location, everything in the property you could need and more.

Great clean large bungalow, extremely comfortable.

Very well equipped with everything you need plus large range of puzzles etc. for children and adults! In a lovely secure garden.

We had a fabulous holiday at Bethany Bay View.

The bungalow was perfect for us - a great layout, brilliantly equipped and very clean. Holywell beach is superb - we loved quiet early morning walks with our dogs and the waves were great for body boarding. This has been our first stay in this property and we hope it won’t be our last.

Everything about this property was perfect.

Truly a home from home. Beds and showers extremely comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. Location is wonderful. Garden was beautiful. Property manager was responsive and kind. We will be booking again for next year.

We had a lovely time.

We enjoyed the bungalow and the garden area was lovely. We would return again! Few things to make the stay better: tap water was often yellow in colour and hot taps didn't work in the bathroom sinks. Clothes drier is on its last legs (literally) and one bed is a little lumpy (second room next to garden).

We are returning guests to ‘Bethany’ so it’s a no brainier that we love the place and all that it offers, both facilities and situation wise.

A welcoming home from home. This isn’t just a holiday rental, you enter someone’s home. Ideal for dogs, kids (although mine are big kids now!) and grown ups alike. Always very well presented and clean. A suitable en-suite shower which is a must for us. The only criticism I would point out is that the master bed/mattress is in need of replacement. Rather uncomfortable and lumpy. Apart from this I would highly recommend the accommodation and indeed we have already booked for next year (in the hope there is a new bed).

The most beautiful place we have stayed so far.

There was everything you needed, beautiful views. Very quiet. The garden was amazing, and well maintained. The only grip was the oven grill, to use the grill you must close the oven door for it to work, more instructions would be helpful. But great place to stay.

The property is stunning and ticked all our boxes ensuring our stay was as relaxing as we desired.

Having a large private garden for our 2 German Shepherds took all the pressure off. The location is first class, two fantastic local pubs and stones throw away from the stunning Holywell beach. After our first day we booked again for next June. Thanks from us all

What a lovely bungalow!

everything we needed there perfect! clean and cosy, the dogs loved the garden close to the beach couldn’t ask for more already booked for next year. Thank you for making our holiday so enjoyable The Orchard family

Really lovely bungalow in a fantastic location.

Beautiful property with sand dune & sea views!

Internally has a great space with large garden great for the dogs. Parking is superb easy fit several vehicles and gate to garden for easy access.

really great location,best holiday accommodation we have stayed at.

Not only really clean, but clear instructions for re-cycling etc. Outside space was very good with all the raised decking, good for dogs. only a small comment could do with a dust pan and brush, for keeping sand at bay. All in all really comfortable bungalow. Would highly recommend it.

A beautiful property.

Very convenient, very comfortable, exceptionally clean a home from home. We had 3 generations and a dog on our holiday, and this property made us all happy! The pictures do not do it justice. Would love to go back…… but it is sooo booked up!!

The website does not do this properly justice as it’s’home from home’ and immaculate!

I had a leg injury which restricted me fro access to the beach etc but this bungalow was brilliant for views etc etc. Plenty of cooking facilities and comforts such as coffee and tea etc. Home from home with excellent quality facilities. I placed as much as possible in the dishwasher as lots of kitchen equipment that hadn’t been used but had marks or stains. My husband also sorted the shower in the front front bedroom as the water rose highly due to the shower trap needed cleaning but, all done now! I also added lemon juice to the kettle to de-scale as it wasn’t good. Booked for next September already and although I don’t want to wish my life away, cannot wait. 11 out of 10. Met the housekeeper Tracey who was first class customer service and cleanliness. Absolutely wonderful experience and cant wait to return next year. Thank you.

Wonderful bungalow, third year running for us and never ceases to please us, thank you

Lovely property beautiful garden nice walk to the beach great pub just down the road .

.perfect

We had the most lovely 2 week stay at Bethany, garden was just perfect for our 2 dogs to run around in.

We were very lucky the weather was kind, so we hardly used the dining room and living room and was able to make the most of the sunshine just sitting out on the decking. We would definitely stay here again.

The property has many advantages e.

g. space, enclosed garden, position to coast and we shall return next year as already booked for our third visit. That said, this visit included an elephant in the room... building next door to the property which included all the associated electrical, carpentry and radio noise, which could be heard inside and especially in the garden. The garden has many advantages however hammering, electrical saw noise and Radio 1 sadly made enjoying it and the sunshine less than inviting. This will be temporary over the coming weeks but did detract from our visit this time. Surprisingly we were not made aware of this prior to arrival and my contact was greeted with the owner being unaware which demonstrates a lack of customer care at the very least. That said the owners have offered an ex gratia payment to compensate for the inconvenience, which I await. Hopefully this will be maintained for future guests while this persists. That said we do look forward to our return visit next year when hopefully all will be quiet and returned to normal. I can then happily recommend this property to future guests following completion of the adjoining building work.

A really gorgeous holiday home .

.well equipped with everything you need and well maintained..beautiful location will definitely be coming back cannot fault anything about this property …if you have dogs

A really lovely comfortable cottage.

Very well equipped and a great secure garden for dogs. Amazing location 5 minutes walk to beautiful Holywell beach and stunning walks along the coastal path in both directions.

This is a lovely holiday home, maintained to a very high standard and in a superb location.

We have just returned and we were so impressed, we have already booked for the same time next year.

This cottage totally saved our holiday!

The weather was bad so we spent a lot of time enjoying the comfort and position of this lovely, spacious bungalow. The local beach was perfect for a gentle walk for us and great fun for our springer spaniel, who also enjoyed the safely- enclosed garden. We will be back next year!

This property really is a home away from home.

The facilities are excellent with a very well stocked kitchen, including a dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. The soft furnishings are so comfortable and we brought out grandson this time, he loved it. A large drive, wonderful enclosed garden with gorgeous views. We will be back again, very soon!

Lovely location.

Close to tourist spots. Holywell bay surf school on the doorstep. Great location for family. The accommodation was very roomy and the kitchen had everything you could think of. Shop in the nearby holiday park was very useful only a few minutes walk. I would differnately recommend Bethany.

Lovely property in a great location.

Couldn't have asked for more in terms of our requirements for 6 adults and 2 dogs. Very well equipped kitchen with loads of crockery and cutlery, which is sometimes an issue in holiday rentals. My only concern really was the price. We paid around £2900 for a week in August and that seemed really excessive. It was a nice property, but I don't think we could afford to return at that sort of price, especially with the current cost of living crisis.

Very clean, comfortable and well-equipped cottage.

Great views and handy for beach and coastal path. A bit pricey this year.

Great spacious bungalow everything one would need.

Second year my family have enjoyed our week in Holywell Bay. We have friends in the vicinity who we meet up with. The bungalow was extremely clean and very comfortable. Contained everything one would need. Unfortunately my son in law sat on one of the outside plastic chairs which broke luckily he wasn't hurt. But thank you, great stay, hopefully be back next year

Well appointed and equipped spacious bungalow, totally enclosed large garden and terrace area ideal for families with small children or dogs.

Highly recommended, only thing to consider is the position up a short steep hill, but this didn’t cause us any problems. One benefit from the position is it offers stunning views across the bay.

Immaculate, huge bungalow in lovely setting.

Very handy for early morning walks on the beach, local pub extremely friendly and close by.

Very good.

Very comfortable. Met all our requirements especially for my disabled sister.

Your listing was totally inaccurate, 5 min walk to beach more like one and a half miles by car.

.steep uneven private road really not friendly to anybody..the bungalow is spacious but that’s about the only good point..state of the ark TV with bad reception..maybe Netflix or Prime would have given us something to watch ( it costs £10 per month )..we are not all walkers..drinkers or surfers..the beds were hard..the bungalow tidy but not clean..it’s just old and weary (shabby)..this early in the year you would at least have expected a bit of Spring Cleaning to have been carried out the conservatory was full of odd furniture very fragile & low..there was no comfortable furniture in the garden to sit out on in the sun..the bungalow is for 6 there was only the 2 of us with our little dog..so we shut up the twin b/room dining room & conservatory..but then we receive instructions on what we must do before leaving..we have a comfortable clean home..we pay a window cleaner..a lady to do the jobs we can’t manage..So when a holiday costs £1000 for a week..why should we be expected to clean..I’m not embarrassed at how we left Holywell..I don’t think anyone would believe someone had been there..there was a generous welcome package 1pint milk…..we have been so spoilt on previous holidays.

A lovely well equipped property, ideal for a family.

Unfortunately not all our guests came due to covid so we were disappointed not to have been able to share the experience with them. The garden was ideal and secure enough for our dogs. Thank you.

This property has been the best yet that we have stayed at in Cornwall.

It’s bigger than we expected and has everything you could need! Plenty of space for your clothes etc. The garden is well kept, and it really did feel like a home from home. Only one thing is that you’ll need to drive to get anything like milk or a morning paper etc as there isn’t a shop in Holywell Bay. As we ordered an online delivery we didn’t need to worry about that anyway. There was milk in the fridge on arrival and tea and coffee in the cupboard. Also there was dog bowls! Which was a great idea. The towels are great too! Overall if you’re looking for somewhere away from the crowds and shops etc this is perfect. Just one last thing it’s a hill to walk to and from the beach, the property is located at the top of a hill which is great for the views! . So people uneasy on their feet may feel a little restricted. We will definitely consider returning!

The king size bed appears to have a different mattress frim last visit which is niw very hard and uncomfortable- could do with upgrading to a decent mattress.

Also oven needs cleaning! Otherwise beautiful comfortable property and a great stay as usual.

Absolutely outstanding location and property!

This was our first two week holiday and I forgot to pack my heart as this property gave us so much. The Gardner comes once a week to keep on top of the garden and does a fantastic job! I was confused on arrival with the way the kitchen was set up with items as it was chaotic however, does it matter because except foe a glass bowl to mix the Yorkshire, it had absolutely everything? It was a pleasure to return to if we went out for the day and if we win the lottery, I would definitely put an offer to the owner! Very much hope to return as fabulous! Thank you

I would agree with all previous positive reviews.

We would love to come back. But our week this August was £1900 plus pounds, that’s ok, but the same week next year is just over £3000. Some would say that’s supply and demand, I would say that’s greed. There’s no way we would come back at that price.

Brilliant location, had a great holiday and will be booking again for next year

Only comment to make was receiving your e-mail asking us to do certain things when we leave (like taking off all the bed linen) but alas we didn't do this because we didn't get the e-mail until we got home !

! but apart from that a lovely holiday.

Lovely well equipped bungalow, plenty of room for the 5 of us.

Beautiful maintained garden.Would definitely book again. The only little niggle I’ve got is that there wasn’t a welcome pack with tea, coffee, milk etc, luckily I had taken these with me.

This was our 3rd visit and we have already booked again for next year .

Beautiful property with a lovely garden in an excellent position with excellent facilities. Thank you to Tracey and team for the uupkerp and cleaning! The only comment we woukd make is that the en-suite is looking a little tired now.

Excellent location for the beach and coast path walks , spotlessly clean accommodation in a lovely position with sea views ,we could hear the sea from the garden , lovely garden for our dog .

hope to return next year .

Great location for peaceful and relaxing holiday.

Easy access to fantastic beach, coastal walks and two pubs within walking distance. We love everything about Bethany Bay and really can’t find fault with it.

The house is in an amazing location and has everything needed for a great holiday.

The bathrooms in the house need some attention/updating but overall the standard of accommodation was excellent, so much so we have rebooted for next year.

We had a fantastic holiday staying at Bethany Bay, i can’t rate it high enough.

The property was spotless when we arrived, it is very well equipped & had everything we needed (it really was like home from home) I would recommend it to anyone. We will definitely be coming back & look forward to meeting Tracey the property manager who was so lovely when I spoke to her during our stay.

Hi excellent place to stay, excellent location.

Loads of walks from the bungalow. Pub down the road . Great for walking with dogs and a nice enclosed garden.

We have stayed here several times.

Wonderful spacious property with a great garden for the dogs and just a short walk to the beach. The property is immaculate with great views

We were a bit confused as to rubbish/recycling as all bags were full on arrival and not collected during our weeks stay.

Everything else was great . Bungalow lovely like home from home, we also stayed last year and have rebooked for 2020

We love sitting out on the decking for breakfast and in the evening watching lovely sunsets over Holywell bay.

Fantastic coastal walks, an escape from the everyday in this magical place.

Every year is a pleasure to stay in this lovely bungalow.

The garden is always immaculate, gardener always polite and will only mow lawns etc. when convenient to us. Can't wait until next visit, hopefully the weather will be kinder next time! Thank you to Tracey who will always text day before we arrive with key details etc.

We have already booked our holiday for 2020 at the same place

This is a very nice house in a stunning setting.

We got there early (few fair hours before checking time) with some food shopping and the ladies were lovely to let us drop the shopping so car was free of bags to go and explore before checking in. They were cleaning the kitchen and was impressed as how much spring clean was ongoing. The place is spotless , fridge, oven was all inmaculate. House is big and very comfortable and garden is lovely with sea views. Short walk to beach and pubs and views of sea from many Rooms. Cosy and with everything you need to feel at home. Thank you for letting us enjoy this lovely place!

Lovely bungalow in a beautiful location.

Tracey, the property manager was very friendly and helpful.

This was a lovely spacious cottage where we spent a very happy week.

It was very comfortable, with lots of seating , quality furniture, a lovely kitchen with plenty of crockery and equipment. We didn't watch much TV , but there were lots of interesting and varied DVDs. And a great selection of games and novels. However, two criticisms: the mattress in the bedroom with the TV , was very soft and not conducive to a good night's sleep. My son and daughter in law complained about it. The other double was ok but not as comfortable as our bed at home. The twin beds were fine. Good mattresses are very important. The other criticism was ...no heating when we arrived. I contacted the agent, she gave advice but it took a while before it was sorted and it was not something I could have done myself so was glad my son sorted it....though too late for hot water for my grandson's bath. The heating went off again later in the week ,and again my son rebooted it. However, I felt that this could have been a real problem for older folk like me and my husband. The problem was exacerbated by intermittent phone signal when trying to get instructions from the agent.

Beautiful spacious bungalow, nicely laid out and plenty of parking.

The local shop is only a mile away and has a fantastic pub next to it which caters for those on special diets. Only negatives were we couldn’t use the shower in the bathroom as it leaked everywhere. The vacuum is a battery powered one and we were unable to vacuum the whole bungalow in one go, which is important when you have dogs, also there was a small split in the vacuum hose. Some more cleaning product would be nice as we like to leave where we stay as clean as we find it. However we would definitely stay here again.

we have had several stays at this property and have already booked for 2019 we love it

Great place modern and clean.

Like home from home. Would recommend definitely. Already booked for next year!

Lovely location, close to sandy dog friendly beach.

Bungalow was spacious and and well equipped, with lovely wrap around garden. Loved it so much we didn’t want to leave.5 stars

Fantastic house in a very beautiful location.

House was well maintained and had great facilities. Lovely sea views from the terrace and a 5 minute downhill walk to the beach. There are 2 pubs and a beach shop within 5 minutes walk plus a bakery, post office, general shop and fish and chip shop a 20 minute walk or 5 minute drive away. Great base for exploring Cornwall, would highly recommend.

Great location close to beach and pubs.

Lovely garden for dog. Decking area wonderful for al fresco eating watching the sunset. Very spacious and well stocked kitchen

Since my last visit, new kitchen has been installed.

Beautiful with handy side door leading to garden. Have been to Holywell for the past 60 years, staying in various caravans, bungalows etc. Bethany Bay far exceeds all of them, will always use each year hopefully.

home from home in a great location stayed here 3 times already and have booked to go twice for 2018 we love it can defiantly recommend for dog owners close to a fabulous dog friendly beach ( Holywell ) & plenty of coastal walks , with 2 great pubs within 5/10 mins stroll both serve food of a good standard & both are dog friendly , a short drive to padstow & peranporth ,Constantine bay & harlyn bay all fantastic dog friendly beaches

The property was superb and roomy plenty of room to have a quiet read.

Just one thing couldn't work out which dustbin was which and what we allowed to recycle.
