3 Praa Cove

Lovely house very clean and comfortable with everything you need for your holiday.

Great base to explore the surrounding areas too visiting Marazion, Sennen Cove and Lizard Point which are all within easy drive of the property. Kynance Cove & Poldhu Cove are lovely! We did struggle to get food locally as both times we visited The Welloe they’d stop serving well before closing time so something to bear in mind and Sisu stop the main menu for just Fish and Chips from 2pm on Fridays! Highly recommend the property though it’s fab!

Lovely property, great location and lovely owners

A great property and location, all as described in the listing.

We frequented all three eateries in Praa Sands as well as the Coach and Horses in nearby Newtown and can recommend them all. All in all a brilliant and relaxing stay.

We loved our stay at 3 Praa Sands.

Located right near the beautiful sandy beach- a comfortable, clean and relaxing home away from home. Thank you!

Loved our stay here!

The property is a fantastic layout with both a dog and a toddler in tow. We were all so comfortable for all of our stay. The location was perfect for quick beach visits, and shops weren't far away at all for both a big and a small shop throughout the week. The kitchen is really well equipped, plenty to make lots of big dinners and even a birthday cake for me! It was so helpful that they'd already set up the cot and high chair, so we were able to settle right in. Would also highly recommend SISU for a takeaway burger in a Thursday night too, a few minutes walk away and the best burgers we've had, but enjoyed in the comfort of this lovely home.

This place is that good it is our second visit within 8 months to this magical property.

The place is absolutely amazing, and the attention to detail by the owners for guests is mind blowing, it really is. This is very modern, clean is not the word, immaculate throughout is more appropriate, very private, and so close to the beach. This property will literally make you so pleased you chose it, you will want to return, so be prepared for that. It's really magical and the owners provide all the little things that really make you smile.

We loved our stay in this house.

We've visited Praa sands many times over the years, this is the first time we've stayed there. The house was within easy access of the beach, coastal walks and the local bar/restaurant. The house is spacious, allowing teenagers plenty of space and parents time for themselves. It's dog friendly and ours was chuffed to be greeted with dog treats when we arrived. We were greeted with scones, jam and clotted cream which was lovely. A really nice touch was the house gently decorated for Christmas, so we still felt the Christmas spirit, even though we weren't at home. The kitchen had everything you could need to prepare and cook meals, including a wine fridge which was a lovely find. The house was lovely and warm during our stay, which we were grateful for as the temperature had really dropped. The bedrooms were lovely, again with a little touch of Christmas with comfortable beds and plenty of space. Everything you needed to know was provided in a personal letter to us which is a lovely touch. We loved our stay and would definitely book again.

The most perfect location, beautiful views from the rear if the house, the house was impeccably clean, fully equipped for day to day living, delicious welcome pack of scones, clotted cream, jam , tea and and ground coffee for the coffee machine.

5 minute walk to the beautiful beach at Praa sands. Ideal location for exploring, short drive to St Michael’s Mount, Porthleven etc. And I have to say after long days out exploring the most comfortable beds to recharge on for the next days adventures. I would highly recommend here for anyone lucky enough to stay in beautiful Praa Sands !

We had a smashing stay at Praa cove.

The house was very clean and a lovely location within walking distance to the beach and also a field for the dog to run around.The complimentary scones were very welcome and delicious,the dog treats were a lovely touch. Thank you for supplying the high chair and cot which saved a lot of room in the car. We all agreed it was a lovely holiday lovely property and a great location. We would highly recommend.

Photo's online of this place do not do it justice.

Beautiful place with great Sea views, every need was thought about, very clean and new throughout. Fantastic location five minute walk from beach.

Absolutely perfect stay The property was spotlessly clean, modern, and finished to a high standard.

It was fully equipped with everything we needed and more. Perfect location, just a short walk to Praa Sands beach - and we enjoyed visiting nearby locations such as St Michael’s Mount, Penzance, Mousehole and Porthleven. Truly faultless in every way, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay.

The attention to detail was excellent.

Very thoughtful provisions on arrival. Quality decor chosen with care. Well set up for dogs & people alike! Felt very “at home”.

The house is beautiful ,very clean and in a fantastic location within walking distance to the beach.

Everything was catered for within the house and the complimentary scones and cream were very welcome.The outside space did however leave us a little disappointed , the garden furniture on the website had been replaced with an old wooden table with benches. I contacted the owner on arrival to convey my disappointment and within a couple of hours they had purchased two reclining loungers for us which were very much appreciated, this was great service. I do feel a little more effort could be made to make the outside space more welcoming , it’s rather barren and for me the outside is as important as the inside as like to sit out and relax. The only other thing I would mention to the owner is that one lamp in the large living room isn’t enough , we brought a couple down from upstairs. We would definitely return to this property as we had a very enjoyable stay, the owners were most helpful and I hope they find my feedback helpful.

The cottage was in a great location and ample size for the six of us and dog.

Just a few niggles that let it down - there was an awful smell from the drains the whole week, the duvets were extremely thin and too small for the covers and the pillows were past their best. Other than that we had a nice week despite the weather not being so good.

We had the most wonderful stay at Praa Cove.

The property had everything we needed including a beautiful view of the sea from the living room. It was clean, homely, and very comfortable. As we stayed for 2 weeks, we were contacted to see if there was anything else we needed including housekeeping. The welcome gifts were a lovely treat to arrive to after a long drive. With the beach just a few minutes away, it was the perfect way to start the day with our dogs. I look forward to booking another stay at the property.

We were very impressed by 3 Praa Cove, it’s a lovely well equipped new house with everything that we needed for our holiday.

The house itself was bigger than we expected from the details and perfect for us. The location was a little tricky to find, but is close to an excellent cafe and only a short walk to the long sandy beach. We had a great holiday and would recommend this as a great option. Thank you.

Exceeded expectations - very clean, modern and comfortable house, well positioned in easy walking distance of beach.

Sea view from back bedroom and house in a peaceful location at end of cul-de-sac. House is very well appointed (especially the kitchen) with much thought for guests, and dogs thought of too with dog bowls, towels and treats. The owner is very friendly and helpful, being on hand for any issues or local recommendations (we didn’t know the Penzance Food Festival was on - well worth going to, great food and music!). Would certainly return to 3 Praa Cove for another holiday, Praa Sands is very well placed for touring the south of Cornwall with so much to see and do.

We had a lovely stay in this beautiful house.

It’s ideally located a short walk from the beach, lovely beachside bar and cafe next to you. It had everything you need for a lovely comfortable stay. The locks on bathroom door are a bit stiff so didn’t use them incase you get locked in but apart from that everything was perfect. Thank you. Sykes provided the wrong what3words and address but luckily we had googled where it was and knew it was behind the Cafe.

Fabulous holiday accommodation, spacious, clean, welcoming, perfect location and we will definitely be back!

This was our third stay in one of the owner's properties.

They are always beautifully presented, clean, light and airy. Praa Sands is a gem of a beach and the location is perfect for exploring south-west Cornwall. We love it and will definitely return (again!).

Really enjoyed are stay at 3 praa cove, just a few minor problems, unable to set correct temperature for various rooms, resulting in rooms being rather hot and having to open windows, also running out of hot water, can't see how this should happen when a 250litre unvented hot water cylinder has been installed, maybe another immersion heater in the cylinder might do the trick, otherwise a very pleasant and enjoyable stay, great location, lovely garden and good sized rooms.

Fabulous house in perfect location !

What can we say - we had a really great holiday at Praa Cove.

The fixtures and fittings are really high end and credit to the housekeeper - the cleanliness was fantastic! The bed was comfy and the showers were fabulous. They really have thought of everything, even providing 2 pin plug adaptors in case you forget yours for the toothbrush/razor. Ice machine in the kitchen along with coffee and filter papers for the coffee machine with milk and sugar, a welcome sight after a long journey. Minutes away from the beach so the furry family members could have a play every night. They were even provided with a big pot of dog bickies on arrival - a thoughtful touch, thank you. Lovely holiday, lovely property and in a great location for Praa Sands and touring the area. We can't see how anyone could find fault with this property.

praa sands is a little cornish jem so beautiful peaceful the second bedroom has the most amazing sea views and from the lounge the garden area which is totally closed and and secure benefits from being on the same elevation so you can here the sea all day outside the house is fitted all with high end amenities and i would really recommend a stay all within a 5 min walk to the sea

Although we had a couple of problems they were soon sorted by Sue.

I only have two comments to be shared with the property owner as it was a wonderful house and stay.

The downstairs toilet lock is broken, you can’t get out without help and the sewage smell was rather horrible by the driveway

Outside water tap and 3 x gates in garden all padlocked and could not be used.

Would have been very helpful to have had the codes. There is still a strong smell of sewerage from the pump at the front which usually meant a strong intake of breath before you ventured out,especially as this was the only exit in view of the above. Surely this could be sanitised in some way as has been done by the waterboard at our apartment block.

We had a wonderful stay at this Holiday Home, It is much bigger than it appears in the photographs.

It felt spacious & was extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean, Kitchen fully equipped. The Garden was fully enclosed for our dog & has a lovely decked seating area with a great sea view, 3 minute walk to the Beautiful beach. The garden area is a great spot for star gazing at night & the outside light was a great benefit when needed. The pantry essentials plus dog treats were a lovely gesture. We received a curtesy call on our way from the housekeeper informing us the home was ready earlier than expected. It was lovely to receive another call a few days later asking was everything ok & brought us clean towels end of the first week. Highly recommended.

Beautiful house, really well presented and equipped.

We couldn’t have asked for more. Short walk to the beach, Praa Sands was stunning. I would thoroughly recommend. Thank you.

Lovely comfortable, well equipped house, tho the master bedroom doesn't have the sea view.

Short walk from an amazing beach. Difficult to find initially: it's via Pengersick Ln. The actual road isn't named. It's access is between Sandy Stores and the holiday park, and directly opposite Trewartha Rd. Wish this info had been provided. Option for the provision of dog crates would make it properly dog friendly as we had to bring our own on a trailer. Overall we had a lovely stay and would recommend.

This is a lovely property with a really good entry time.

The property was clean, well maintained with a really secure garden for the dogs. It's just a short walk to the beach and with the local shop and cafe just around the corner. The cherry on the cake was the amazing weather we had.

Excellent holiday home, well furnished & equipped & spotlessly clean.

The beds were very comfortable & the standards throughout were high. Only a short walk to the beach which was lovely. Only downside was that it was the least generous in terms of a welcome pack of any holiday cottages we have stayed in, very frugal. Previous holiday homes have provided hampers of local produce which really did feel like a very warm welcome from the property owners & the area & what it can provide locally.

This is a lovely place to stay in a great location, less than 5 minutes walk from the beach.

Well equipped, plenty of room for two adults and two dogs. This property is at the higher end when it comes to places to stay and there were some nice added extras like dog treats for the dogs and shower gel and moisturiser for the humans but I felt it lacked a few things too. There were no extra human treats which is quite the norm now ( there was milk and sugar and some tea and coffee). There was also no kitchen paper and only one loo roll in each bathroom which felt mean when you are charging almost £1000 for a week out of season. There was also no battery in the weighing scales and when you have to measure out dog food everyday this was annoying. The info folder was also out if date and said happy Christmas and there was no additional info like where is good to eat or some activities you might like to try. It just felt like there was a lack of care and attention to detail in some aspects All that said this is a lively place in a great location and I would possibly stay again.

A fantastic property, with plenty of space.

The garden was great for the dogs, nice and secure. Would definitely stay here again.

The house was perfect, it had everything we needed.

Perfect place for couples or a family holiday. Also great for our dog the beach and other walks so close. Just remember dogs are not allowed on the beach during July and August. We will definitely be returning.

We have just come back after the best week at 3 Praa Cove.

The photos just don’t do it justice, it is in a perfect location with incredible views. We were very lucky with the weather, but even on the one bad day we enjoyed playing board games (that were provided) in the property. It is a very secure garden, which the dogs loved. Very friendly hosts which were contactable should we need them, and everything was provided from tea and coffee to shower gel and shampoo! We would highly recommend a stay here, and make sure you try KC Fish and Chips! Along with the shop at the top of the street that has a large Christmas section! Overall a perfect holiday, a perfect location and we hope to return soon.

We had such a wonderful stay.

We wanted for nothing. The detail was incredible which matters a lot when staying for the week. The location is great for walks on the beach and to get to the bar on the beach. It is one we would look to definitely book again. We fell in love with the place

A beautiful well equipped home throughly enjoyed the week the only thing was the weather but that’s England would defently stay at the property again

Thank you for a wonderful stay at 3 Praa Cove.

The house is lovely, spacious, clean, really comfortable and well equipped. It is an ideal location for the beach. The only thing we would say that is missing is a BBQ. I think there is a problem with the sewage pump which is located on the road just outside the driveway, if the wind was in a certain direction we could smell it quite strongly. I’m sure this is something that will be sorted out so it certainly wouldn’t put me off booking the house again.

The property is in a great location, just a short walk to the beautiful beach.

Also easily accessed is the coastal path. We did two walks along the coastal path, one in each direction and the scenery was stunning; really lovely stretches of the coastal path to try. The property was clean, beautifully presented and really well equipped with everything you could need. The hosts were extremely helpful too.

This house was truly fantastic.

The level of supplied equipment outstanding, and a welcome pack of food and even dog treats! We were very happy with the standard of everything - to the point that finding anything to complain about has proven difficult. I have three minor observations that could top off what is a lovely house: Access to the beach via the garden gate means you can't close it without bolting it, this makes getting back from the beach tricky. A coffee table in the living room would reduce the chances of drinks getting spilt while seated around the L-shaped settee. Lastly, directions to the house could be improved - the house is off Penwerris Rise, not Castle Drive.

Wow!

What a house, the pictures do not do it justice.The house itself is modern, clean well furnished. The house is a very short walk to the beach and the beach…..just wow! Just beautiful. Great hosts, no questions were a problem and any problems dealt with quickly and efficiently. Thank you
