Seascape

We really enjoyed our stay at the property, and were very surprised by how clean and well appointed everything was, with all amenities included.

Arrival and check in was super easy. Everything was clean. Clearly identified parking available. Kitchen has a hob, combi-microwave, kettle, washing-machine and dishwasher (with 2 tablets kindly provided for each), along with a parasol for the balcony. Instruction manuals for everything provided in a folder (in drawer under tv). Best thing is it's walking distance to both beaches of Portcurno and Pedn Vounder. Only improvements could be the mattress and the washing machine - its programmes are a bit erratic (hard to work out for timing) - everything else was perfect!

What a lovely apartment.

It was clean and well maintained with everything we needed for our trip to Porthcurno. An amazing location!

The property was compact and reasonably well equipped.

The bed was not great but it wasn't the worst. Bedding was adequate. The property looked clean, but when I had a shower after my first night, I looked up to see the dirtiest shower head I had ever seen, covered with black mould. I decided I could not use the shower and would have to manage without. When I picked up my shoes from next to the front door, a lot of nettle type bugs scattered and disappeared under the skirting board. I took all my belongings and put them in the car. I was there under difficult circumstances and didn't feel able to deal with the owners who I had spoken to before finding these issues. Mould presents a significant risk to my health. I do have photos but there doesn't appear to be any way of uploading them as part of this review.

Nice small place but had to leave early because heavy rain flooded the bedroom on two nights .

Also advertised with a good pub and beach cafe only meters away they both closed down what looked like years ago all boarded up and overgrown by weeds

We have visited Porthcurno for many years and it was great to return in September this year.

Seascape is clean and comfortable with easy access car parking but it is the little things that let it down. Every property I have ever stayed in over the years provides the bear essentials but we were very disappointed to find just half a toilet roll, a quarter of a bottle of Carex soap in the bathroom, just ONE bin liner in the cupboard, very basic tea and coffee sachets and no salt/pepper. I think for the price paid it wouldn't have been too much to expect a couple of loo rolls and perhaps a nice little wrapped bar of soap? A few biscuits in the welcome pack? The milk in the fridge was appreciated but considering the nearest large supermarket is a 20 mile round trip, I feel a little more effort could have been made. It felt like we were being told: "Here, don't expect any more than THAT!" I certainly never think to pack salt and pepper and also there was no cork screw so, when we sat down to relax with a glass of wine the first evening, we couldn't uncork it! The apartment is in a lovely position, the bed was comfortable but larger people would struggle with the tiny shower. Also we would have liked a lamp in the living room because you either sit in the dark watching television, or in bright light! We actually moved a small lamp from the bedroom to make it cosier. So overall the property is very clean and comfortable but no effort was made with the little things that, to me personally, mean a lot!

Lovely little place to stay with parking.

Perfect for the 2 of us to relax for a couple of days and walk or take the bus to travel about.

The property is ideal for a couple , well situated for Porthcurno beach and as a base for touring the local area .

Very clean and well equipped property , good parking space and although close to the road the traffic and noise was minimal , bearing in mind our visit was not in the school holiday period .

I had a lovely stay all in all.

This is by no means a criticism, but I would have really appreciated some instructions on how to use some of the appliances. Thanks for a relaxing stay

Lovely little apartment.

Has everything we needed for our holiday

Apartment was very cosy and clean.

Only complaint I had was the sink in bathroom was cracked but thankfully didn't leak and the blind near the TV had broken on the pulls

Although the apartment was very small we had everything we needed for our stay.

Perfect location. Will visit again.

Loved our time here, the apartment had everything we could possibly need and was cosy and homely.

Thought we would eat out most nights but we went food shopping instead and spent our evenings at the apartment as it was just so relaxing. Lovely location, just perfect really!

Perfect location for me and property was ideal for a single person.

Description was a little optimistic and I think "sleeps 2" is definitely a stretch of the imagination, I would not want to stay with a second person as only a small 2 seater sofa and bed mattress has clearly seen better days with the noises the springs were making! Also, description said there was a DVD player and there wasn't one. Shower was blocked with sand, so maybe this should be checked after every guest has left. Other than this I would definitely stay again, but solo only.

Very comfortable apartment.

Very helpful local owners. Would be happy to stay there again.

Leaking door seal,damp with mold on wall,s.

I had to leave news paper on the floors in both the dinning area and bedroom it was placed against the walls .it spoilt my xmas some what,its a shame,but I will not be looking to go back next xmas..and as you can see by your records i,ve been going down to porthcurno for a few years.

The property was beautifully presented.

Clean and tidy, light and airy. TV posed somewhat of a challenge as did the WIFI. But didn't not deter from, what was, a fabulous break.

Apartment is in a ideal location beautiful.

We had a really good stay the apartment is in a good location to the beach and for getting around the area.

The only very small issue we had and the owner was on it which was great. Thanks for a great stay.

A very pretty apartment with everything you could wish for an enjoyable holiday and spotlessly clean and so close to the beach, walks and the Minack Theatre.

The apartment had everything that we needed and was very clean on arrival.

We read that the bed was a little hard, however we found it really comfy. We would of liked a more comfortable sofa, as it was hard. The washer/ dryer and dishwasher were a real treat as there items not normally supplied. I would absolutely recommend the apartment.. The position is a very short walk from the beach and some amazing costal walks, can get a little noisy in the morning with the traffic, but not an issue.

Wonderful holiday in a beautiful destination

Lovely apartment in a perfect location to Porthcurno beach.

Really clean, not a spek of dust even on skirting boards! Everything we could have needed was avaliable at the apartment. Only downside was that the mattress was a bit hard but that is up to personal preference. Would defenitely be looking to stay here again!

Excellent location, perfect for coastal walks, very peaceful.

The flat had everything we needed, we just found the bed a bit uncomfortable but that is our only fault. Complimentary biscuits, tea, coffee etc, were a nice touch. Great value for money.

The access driveway to the property is easily missed and GPS doesn't work in the valley.

Perhaps clearer signage would help? The property was perfect and the facilities amazing but we found the bed quite uncomfortable.

Loved everything about the holiday.

Cottage had everything we needed and was very tidy and clean. Hope to be back next year!

I could hear a lot of noise from the people next door, I was hoping it would have been more quiet than it was, i was awoken nearly every morning around 5.

30am by a child either screaming or crying which did spoil my holiday quite a bit.

We loved the place where we were, and the flat was warm and cozy, with everything we needed.

Having flowers, biscuits and milk left was lovely, thank you!

Beautiful, clean and cosy cottage, with all home comforts.

Located close to gorgeous beach, minack theatre and telegraph museum - all highly recommended. Local friendly pub and cafe, is definately worth a visit. I would definitely stay here again.

The apartment was beautiful and the space was plenty for the 2 of us.

Everything was lovely but it would have been nice to have a bigger shower and a tumble dryer as we washed our towels and the provided towels but as there was no where to dry them while we were out they went horrid smelling as they drip dried on the floor.

We enjoyed our holiday, all was what we expected Thanks

A lovely cottage, ideal for 2 people.

Very close to the beach, Minack and cafe. We ate regularly at the village pub -great food!. Very clean, nicely decorated - yes, we'll be back!

It was a real shame that there were two things that partly spoilt the holiday.

Firstly even though previous customers had mentioned online the softness of the mattress on the bed, the owners had failed to do anything about it, be warned. To say it was uncomfortable was an understatement and led to seven very uncomfortable nights. Secondly the tv in the bedroom doesn't work as no signal can be achieved, again as previously mentioned online on your website and the one in the lounge you need a degree to configure the set-up. I know a tv isn't everything on a holiday but when it's advertised it should already be set up and working. The apartment is well equipped although there was a feeling of end of season about the place and a little maintenance wouldn't go astray, given the six hours between the property being vacated and new clients being allowed to gain access. I'm afraid to rate it as a 4 star holiday accommodation is far of the mark, perhaps a two would be better? Apart from that Porthcurno is a lovely place and it's a shame the edge was taken off our holiday. Hopefully these comments will be passed to the owners for some sort of action!

Was a lovely stay.

Tv in bedroom didn’t work and the lack of WiFi was frustrating in an area with no phone signal. But in relation to our comfort and enjoyment of the property we were very happy.

It is a well equipped and very clean apartment.

It was lovely to see fresh flowers a packet of biscuits and 2 pints of milk waiting for us when we arrived, such a kind thought. Just a couple of negative points - the sofa is more of a large armchair and so cannot seat 2 people comfortably which means that a couple cannot sit together. The bed seemed comfy but the mattress was soft and I did not have a comfortable night's sleep and ended up with a bad back. But that is just personal to me, but thought it may be worth a mention in case any prospective traveller has back issues. It may also be worth mentioning that there is no mobile phone signal at the cottage or in the surrounding area. There is however wifi at the Cable Inn just up from the cottage. It is a lovely, fresh apartment and a great base for exploring the West of Cornwall.

Great little apartment, with excellent facilities and in a fab location close to both the beach, the pub and the Minack theatre (where we were performing).

We've stayed twice now in this block and would book this flat again, on balance.
