Beds comfortable, well furnished, big fluffy towels and kitchen great. Lots of space and nooks and crannies to sit and relax. Slight issue as heating turned off completely and no access to switch so we struggled to dry waterproof coats when we had a wet couple of days. Rang Sykes and owners refused to switch heating on 'as its summer' so we had a very chilly night and couldn't dry things on radiators. Were advised to just use tumble dryer, but can't put waterproof coats in a dryer and they were still wet the next day. Thankfully the weather improved after this and no further issues.

“We, a couple, had a lovely week at Penmeneth.”

This was the first full week after self catering was allowed post lock down 3. The cottage was well located in Marazion with easy walks to shops, pubs, restaurants and the beach. Cottage was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Garden was a delight, with lots of different places to get the best of the sun and views as the day progressed. The cottage is on the main road and the road is narrow but that's part of the cottages character and the history of Marazion. The allocated parking space is a short walk up a steep incline but getting any allocated parking space in a Cornish sea side town is a rarity. We would definitely come here again.

“We had a fabulous week in penmeneth holiday home.”

It was a wet and windy week where we enjoyed lots of walks and body boarding but always so lovely to get home and put the log burner on and relax in a beautiful space. We appreciated being able to bring our dog. The snug room was excellent for morning yoga and we loved the unusual garden. Marazion is a lovely little village and close to lots of places in Cornwall. Thank you so much to the owners for sharing their lovely home and we very much hope to return again.

“There are some not insignificant problems with this property a few of which are insurmountable.”

There is damp, the smell from this is most evident in the main double bedroom. Parking to load and unload is a total pain and is completely unachievable outside the house. The property has an upside down arrangement and so the living area becomes viewable from passing double decker buses which are actually very close to the building as the road outside is so narrow, this is intrusive. The proximity of this road means that there is regular background noise of moving traffic which begins early with the arrival of numerous delivery trucks to the town. The interior of the house is very dated. Surfaces, the decor, the stair carpet, the bathroom all could really do with updating. The exterior suggests a handsome property but this impression is not sustained beyond a rather lovely and welcoming hallway. The property provides a very handy location for accessing the beach and for exploring more widely but given the above points I regard it as poor value for money and there is no way I would stay there again.

“Great location.”

Well equipped kitchen. Generally ok, enjoyed our week. However, disappointing not to get a welcome pack. Good quality bath towels, nice and big. Double is bed hard and not very comfortable. Furniture a bit tired. Garden needs a lot of attention. There is space to park one car but it's not that easy to access, anyone with a disability might struggle, it's a steep climb up to it. Information pack is out of date.

“We have lodged a complaint to Cornish cottages about the significant damp in the property.”

You can feel it in the air and the sheets. Having asthma it made me unable to sleep downstairs so had to sleep on the sofa bed upstairs. It is clear the owners know this as there are vents on the doors and special fresheners that suck in moisture. However it is not nearly enough. Caution needs to be given to asthmatics.

“Brilliantly equipped home for our family of 3 adults and 2 children (aged 9 and 12), well appointed with quality furniture and fittings - nothing missing, and everything we needed including a parking spot nearby and a bonus tumble drier (not advertised, but very welcome!”

). Walking distance to beaches in Marazion and also to the the causeway across to the spectacular St Michael’s Mount. Simple and effective communication with owner via the booking agent

“The cottage was so roomy and comfortable and the terraced gardens were lovely and overall it was ideally placed in the village with easy access to a gorgeous beach that the dog loved.”

A definite ‘must return’ vote...

“The cleaner whom we met on leaving the property explained that she had not been informed that we were booked in.”

Although the property was lovely and clean and beds made up, etc she had been unable to leave a welcome pack for us. The owner has thought of everything and the cottage is very comfortable and well equippped, the only thing we were lacking was a tea strainer!

The property

Any similarity to tradition ends once you step over the threshold of Penmeneth, an inspired transformation of an old double fronted detached cottage has taken place.

Imaginative renovation has evolved the interior into a superior designer home that is very individual.

The first floor living room where pine floorboards, panelled walls and lofty apex ceilings with sturdy timber trusses create a stylishly open and spacious aspect.

Fashionable furnishings, pictures by a well-known St Ives artist and interesting artefacts perfectly complement the room.

The adjoining kitchen is beautifully fitted with hand-crafted units, and a separate reading room has access to a lovely patioed balcony.

Downstairs the bedrooms are tasteful and comfortable, and children will adore the crows nest play den that is a novel feature of their room.

A luxurious bathroom with a lavish bath, tiled walk-in shower and twin basins completes the accommodation on this floor. The garden to the rear is an asset to this property.

It is secluded and planted lavishly with Tuscan palms, fig trees and any number of sub tropical plants and is ideal for evening barbecues.

On reaching the second terrace you will be rewarded by wonderful views of St Michael's Mount and beyond.

Only a 2 minute walk from the beach, shops, galleries, cafes and pubs, a memorable holiday is guaranteed.

There is a car parking space available 50m away from Penmeneth.
