“Comfortable but disappointing We stayed at Church View for a few nights as we wanted to extend our stay in Cornwall.”

While it was a comfortable base and the cottage had a lot of potential, we found it a disappointing experience. Basic things such as hand wash or soap, had not been left for us, although milk and biscuits had which was a nice touch. We noted the bathroom shower, which to be honest is the most pointless thing ever - it’s worse than showering in the rain as it’s just a drip that comes out. Would recommend using the bath instead.

While it was a comfortable base and the cottage had a lot of potential, we found it a disappointing experience. Basic things such as hand wash or soap, had not been left for us, although milk and biscuits had which was a nice touch. We noted the bathroom shower, which to be honest is the most pointless thing ever - it’s worse than showering in the rain as it’s just a drip that comes out. Would recommend using the bath instead. I half debated about even mentioning it because upon closer inspection, people have for two years and it’s still not been addressed, which makes me think the owners aren’t really bothered as long as it’s being rented, which is a shame as it is such a cosy cottage. The bathroom was also quite dirty when we got there - the bath in particular had quite a few hairs which were not ours on the tiles and paint is peeling off the walls too. We also ran out of toilet roll, which isn’t a problem but usually we would expect extra rolls to be included, just in case. A water filter would also be beneficial because the water was cloudy when coming straight from the tap. The bed was comfortable and the lounge was very cosy with the heater on. This cottage has so much potential, we just feel it needs a little TLC to make it a bit more special. Just a note for light sleepers, the road that runs by the cottage is quite loud, more so from around 6am, but it is in a great location to explore the charms of Cornwall.

“The cottage was comfortable and a in a great position for touring.”

The little close is extremely peaceful. We heard no noise whatsoever the whole time we were there. It was slightly let down by the shower which so many others have commented about: this works at a trickle from off the bath taps. We noted in the visitors book that many had pointed this out. Additionally, there had been several comments about a shower mat for the bath to avoid slips. There wasn't one. Further comments mentioned the lack of washing up liquid, scouring pads for pots and pans and a very ungenerous allowance of toilet paper. The DVD player had been broken for many months if the visitors book is correct. All very minor points and, apart from the shower itself, fairly easy to remedy. But well worth a visit.

“Amazing property, central for touring around Shower pressure wasn’t great but we muddled through and a shower mat would be helpful as can be quite slippery in the bath.”

Would definitely rebook this property again for a getaway.

“Good accommodation in nice grounds.”

Good spot for seeing local resorts. Could do with possibly giving more info on the local attractions and possible eating and drinking establishments but overall very good

“On Saturday when we arrived and opened the door we noticed a feisty smell in the cottage and I noticed at the bottom of the stone walls it was damp when I rang Helen Edwards property manager and told her about this she told me most The cottages in the court yard have damp And to complain to Sykes.”

On Monday I rang Sykes about The damp smell and very little cold water in the bathroom and Within 2 hours it was fix . I am so glade it was warm so we could leave the windows open to get rid of the damp smell. I don’t like leaving feedback but when you book a cottage holiday you should be Able to see these problems on the description

“Despite numerous phone calls and voicemails ,the property manager didn't contact us to arrange key collection etc, we were becoming concerned and had to ring sykes who gave us a code for the key safe.”

However, we were happy overall with the cosy cottage and we enjoyed our stay. Shame about the water pressure, but we coped!!. Could do with a pair of oven mittens !

The property

Ideally located for couples seeking to be within easy access of the coast as this property lies just two miles from Perranporth and its magnificent three miles of golden sand.

Found in the hamlet of Penhallow the barn lies within a short stroll of a popular family Inn and is not far from the Cornish Cyder Farm which is well worth a visit.

Set to the edge of the courtyard, Church View does indeed boast a view across the communal lawns to the Parish Church.

All on one level with cosy accommodation just for two, stepping from the hall guests will find a small but practically planned living room with all the character of a feature stone wall, traditional furnishings and a Shaker style kitchen on one side.

On the opposite side of the hall the bedroom and an adjoining bathroom.

When you are ready to explore a wide choice of Atlantic coast beaches await your discovery and a range of activities from golf to water sports and cycle trails will add variety to your stay.

Cornwall's charismatic Cathedral city of Truro with its fine Georgian buildings, popular Theatre and quaint cobbled high streets lined with shops, restaurants and pubs lies only six miles away, whilst the scenic town of Newquay with its premier holiday attractions is seven miles.

There is allocated parking for one car.

About the location

PERRANPORTH

Newquay 9 miles; Truro 9.5 miles.

Perranporth, a beautiful Cornish coastal town, lies in the heart of Poldark Country, the setting for the novels of Winston Graham who lived in Perranporth in the 1930s. Perranporth offers plenty of traditional pubs and shops, plus a classic bucket-and-spade beach that is lifeguarded in summer, overlooked by craggy rocks and a wonderful coastal path. Once known as the source of the finest tin, the community still retains reminders of the rich heritage with abandoned pump houses, mine shafts and workers’ cottages. The local Blue Hills Museum and Perranzabuloe Folk Museum are both well worth a visit to understand the fascinating history of this coastal area. Further afield are the miles of sandy beaches at Crantock and Holywell Bay, and the breathtaking coastal walks around St Agnes, much of it owned by the National Trust. A perfect holiday base in Cornwall, with an abundance of activities to suit everyone.

Note: Internal doors are slightly narrower than standard ranging from 69cm-76cm.
