    “Beautifully clean top speck appliances and bathroom .”

    That having been said the double bedroom has no door so a family or couples may find it a bit uncomfortable as this needs stating before you book .Lack of kitchen ware no oven proof dishes or baking / pizza sheets, no salad bowls or anything you could prepare one in and no microwave .None of this is a problem if you can afford to eat out every day .Bedside lights would be good .I had to balance a flashlight on my head to read .We didn't find any drinking glasses till the day we left as they were in the highest cupboard and way for me 5"4 to reach them .I'm sure these are teething problems and the owners will Implement change .The property is also on the edge of an industrial estate so its not the first place you would choose ,with so many empty properties in Cornwall they need to up their game .

    Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear that you found the property beautifully clean, comfortable and appreciated the quality of the appliances and bathroom. We are, however, disappointed that some aspects affected your stay, particularly as several of the items mentioned were available within the property. There are bedside lights built into the bedroom, which are also dimmable. Oven trays and pizza/baking sheets are stored in the drawer directly underneath the oven, and drinking glasses are provided, although we appreciate that their location in the higher cupboard may not have been obvious or easily accessible for yourselves. We are always more than happy to help during a stay, and a quick message would have allowed us to point you in the right direction straight away. Unfortunately, if we aren’t made aware of an issue at the time, we don’t have the opportunity to resolve it. We will certainly take the comments regarding additional kitchenware and making the location of existing items clearer on board. We will also review the listing to ensure the bedroom layout is as clear as possible for future guests. With regard to the location, the property’s exact setting is shown on the map prior to booking, allowing guests to consider whether the area is suitable for them before making a reservation. As a new property, we genuinely welcome constructive feedback and will continue making improvements where we feel they will benefit our guests. We just wish we’d had the opportunity to help with some of these points during your stay, as several could have been resolved very easily. Property Owner

The property

The Lookout is a delightful pet-friendly cottage tucked away in Redruth, Cornwall.

Ideal for families or groups of friends, this inviting retreat boasts a woodburning stove, peaceful countryside views and a charming garden complete with a fire pit.

Arrive and make use of the convenient off-road parking before stepping inside this attractive mid-terrace property.

The living/dining room welcomes you with comfortable seating gathered around the crackling woodburning stove, creating a lovely spot to unwind after a day of Cornish adventures.

Come together at the dining table to reminisce about the day's highlights before settling down in front of the TV for a relaxing evening.

The well-equipped kitchen offers a bright and sociable setting, with sleek white units and a breakfast bar making meal preparation a pleasure.

Cook up everything from hearty breakfasts to evening feasts using locally sourced ingredients, while the fridge/freezer keeps refreshments chilled, the dishwasher handles the cleaning and the washing machine ensures outdoor gear is fresh and ready for tomorrow's explorations.

Follow the characterful cast-iron staircase upstairs to find two welcoming bedrooms.

The king-size room provides a restful haven at the end of each day, while the cheerful twin room enjoys lovely views across Carn Brea and the surrounding countryside.

Back on the ground floor, the bathroom offers the choice of a soothing soak in the freestanding bath or a rejuvenating shower in the walk-in enclosure before your next adventure begins.

Outside, the front garden provides a pleasant place to enjoy a morning brew on the patio.

Dine alfresco with the barbecue sizzling away, spend evenings gathered around the fire pit beneath the fading sky and let your canine companions enjoy the outdoor space while you relax in tranquil surroundings.

A shop and welcoming pub are both within easy reach, ensuring convenience throughout your stay.

Venture to Portreath Beach for sandy walks, exciting surf and harbour-side refreshments, explore Cornwall's industrial past at East Pool Mine, where impressive machinery and fascinating stories bring history to life, or set off along the South West Coast Path to discover dramatic scenery, hidden coves and far-reaching coastal vistas.

However you choose to spend your time, The Lookout is perfectly placed for a memorable Cornish escape.
