“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. 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.
