Stargazy Cottage

The cottage is beautiful and very comfortable.

We very much enjoyed our stay there, particularly the hot tub! The kitchen is well equipped, and the BBQ/briquettes were much appreciated. There were just a couple of niggles that could have been better: I specifically asked on booking, and again a few days before our booking started, for the twin room to be made up as a king-sized bed, but this message obviously didn't make it to the housekeeping team, and we had to sort this ourselves on arrival; and the EV charger caused some problems as it seemed to be programmed to only charge at a certain window of the day which meant we could not charge our car when we wanted to. Given we had paid a huge premium of £125 for a week to use the EV charger, this was quite disappointing and inconvenient.

Stargazy Cottage was a wonderful place to stay for our week long holiday.

The cottage feels spacious with plenty of comfortable seating. The kitchen is incredibly well-equipped with all you could want for cooking at home, although we mostly ate out. There are also plenty of books, games and puzzles. We liked the finishing touches that were well-considered: mini spotlights up the stairs, plenty of hooks on the bedroom walls, plugs/charging points at accessible heights and plenty of clothes hangers! Outdoor seating was plentiful with comfy cushions. The goodies on arrival were well received. The hot tub was amazing. The only slight discomfort for 2 of us was the bed mattress in the main bedroom (a little lumpy with 2 mattress pads over the mattress), and the single bed which was firm, but that is personal preference. All things considered, this was a beautiful, comfortable, spacious, well-equipped cottage which we would happily stay in again.

House was absolutely fantastic, hot tub is a great addition as the location is a little way from the beach.

The tin full of scones, clotted cream, milk and Ice creams were a lovely touch. The location is within reasonable driving distance to St Michael’s Mount which is just a joy to see and St Ives with its lovely beaches. The only downside was the bed corners hurt when you catch your legs on them and the chain to the Roman blind were not secure (bit of a pain when you have a Ninja menace 2 year old with you) other than that it was fabulous, thank you.

Absolutely lovely stay.

So quiet and relaxing. Did not use the main / old living room. This property has a septic tank I think was rather full when we were there.

We have amazing time staying at Stargazy cottage celebrating 2026 New Year.

The cottage was well decorated with lights and Christmas tree. The cottage well equipped with everything need. Kids really enjoyed hot tub. Beeches and lovely places to visit 7-10 minutes by car. We are highly recommend to everyone who is looking for quiet and beautiful place to spend good time.

Stargazy is a beautiful well maintained property where we really enjoyed our holiday

This is a beautiful property and its location is great, not to far away from everywhere, so if you want to be in a good location to explore cornwall but you dont want the busyness of other areas this is perfect.

It was clean and generally comfortable the only thing we found uncomfortable was the master bedroom bed but that may just be our mattress preference. The house is fully equipped with everything you need, would be really useful to have a dryer, but there is a drying rack. The hot tub was perfect The whole holiday was lovely and relaxing just what we wanted and needed.

This a beautiful well maintained and luxurious cottage.

Thank you for amazing scones and goodies on arrival.

We had a wonderful stay at Stargazy Cottage near Praa Sands.

The cottage was spotlessly clean, beautifully maintained, and very comfortable. Everything we needed was provided, from well-equipped kitchen facilities to cosy furnishings. The location is fantastic – just a short drive to Praa Sands beach and other local attractions – yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful and relaxing. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a perfect Cornish getaway.

We absolutely loved this cottage.

The property had been refurbished and extended beautifully and everything was to a very high standard - including the garden. It suited our needs perfectly and we would love to return for another stay in the future. The provision of the cot and stair gates was much appreciated as were the local food treats that were waiting for us on our arrival. Thank you for providing the venue for us to make lovely family memories!

A delightful, comfortable and very well equipped property.

Stargazy cottage has been an absolute dream.

The space was immaculate, with everything you would need. The garden was the true feature, laying on the sunbeds with the scent of the honeysuckle in the air. We were lucky enough to have some blue tits nesting in the bird box. We spent hours watching the mum and dad race in and out feeding them. The snug at the front of the house was a lovely relaxing space with so much history. The nearby Praa sands beach & the rooftop terrace at the Welloe bar where you could sit looking out to sea was just perfect. Porthleven a must visit only 20 mins away. We will definitely consider a return visit, we didn’t want to leave.

Logement très propre, cuisine très bien équipée conforme à la description.

Au calme, près de Penzance.

Excellent cottage overall.

Very well equipped in kitchen plenty of pots pans and crockery. Some of the pans need replacing though. The weather while we were there was quite cold and the underfloor heating was minimal and unless we lit a fire in the wood burner near kitchen it was very cold. The TV sound in living room area was very distorted so made watching difficult. The beds were very comfortable and we all slept well. We cannot comment on the outside facilities as we did not use them or hot tub. A guest book for comments and sharing experiences would be a useful addition.

Totally fabulous!

The best cottage we have ever stayed at. Everything you could wish for and more. Six of stayed for a week from 5yrs old to 77yrs old and it was brilliant. So clean and warm, fantastic garden and hot tub!

Stargazy is beautiful It’s very well thought out Quiet location Lots of amazing places a short drive away

The property was so comfortable and well equipped.

The hot tub was an added bonus and we really enjoyed that. Thanks also for your thoughtfulness in providing games and books and equipment for toddlers, much appreciated. A great location to stay with easy access to beaches along the coastline. Would definitely use again.

What a fantastic place, i had to cut holiday short unfortunately due to family comittments at home but the couple of days i had there were great.

Everything you needed was there, very thoughtful.. Cosy cottage, great high standard facilities , spotlessly clean, ourdoor space very welcoming. You do need a car but it it close enough to St Ives, Helston etc. Some nice coves and beaches within a half hour or less. Will definately book again at earliest opportinity

Fabulous property!

Everytime we needed something - it was there... Done to a high spec with love and care. Thank you for a fabulous family break.

Absolutely fantastic place to stay, definitely will be back, everything you could ever need and more

Wow!

Stargazy Cottage exceeded our expectations it was beautiful and had everything we needed for a thoroughly fantastic week away, even the weather was exceptional! Would definitely recommend.

Such a beautiful holiday home.

We all loved it. Everything there you needed. We just needed the sunshine a little more! Would defiantly recommend to anyone. Just to mention the flooring was slippy for our 2 year old grandson but he runs absolutely everywhere!!

Details that are crucial for customers confidence in booking is missing from the listing and attempts to get it via the WhatsApp chat with Sykes was completely fruitless.

When listing EV chargers, it’s vital that the connector type, if need own cable and if there are any charges. The property itself was as described, beautifully appointed and provided a wonderful base for exploring Cornwall’s lower extremities. It was well equipped for self catering. Had ample space for 6 people. The hot tub and outside space was great after a day of exploring. The parking space is a little tight and interesting when reversing out as it’s on a corner and whilst it’s a very quiet road, it seems at its busiest when trying to leave. The addition of a free to use (courtesy of the solar panels) type 2 Zappi EV charger, makes this a great cottage for those travellers who want to be eco conscious.

Fabulous cottage, great location

This is an absolutely stunning holiday cottage in a lovely location.

There really is very little to criticise, and so many great things about this cottage. It is extremely clean, well equipped and beautifully presented. The owners have sympathetically renovated the cottage, and it is one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. The location is a small village just north of Praa Sands. It is a great location to cycle from, as well as to base yourself for a surfing holiday . Early on in our stay, we had some very heavy rain, and mud washed over the front of the property from up the lane. The owners became aware of this due to their CCTV, and rapidly responded (within an hour!) and cleared the front area themselves. They are absolutely delightful, and extremely helpful if you encounter any problems. My only concern, is that if we over-egg this review, it may become so popular that we can’t ever book in again! An amazing location and an amazing cottage!

Wow what a beautiful and well equipped cottage.

The owners have thought of everything. Very well appointed, loved all the paintings and little touches, my grandson particularly loved the fishes in the downstairs toilet. Shame about the weather though. Close to many beaches and well positioned to tour southern Cornwall., Great fish and chip shop nearby. Hope to return again one day.

Absolutely beautiful cottage, and a fantastic stay.

The attention to detail is second to none - from the selection of toys lefts for our little one, to the socket covers, everything had been thought of. We would recommend this property in a flash, and look forward to returning in the future.

A lovely cottage, tastefully renovated and extended.

Clean, well-equipped. Absolutely perfect!

Beautiful property.

Full of home comforts. Soft furnishings are stunning and well thought out. Lovely little welcome pack. Really relaxing holiday. Thank you for allowing us to stay

Beautiful cottage.

Exactly as advertised. We had a lovely stay. Everything you could want/need all provided. Cottage is tastefully decorated, comfortable and welcoming. Delicious scones, jam and cream provided on arrival plus a couple of other necessities which were appreciated. Stargazy is in a great location, really handy for Perranuthnoe (lovely food at the Cabin/Tipsy Crab and Peppercorn cafe), Penzance, Marazion and St Ives. Brilliant beaches at Perranuthnoe and Porthminister. We really did have a magical trip to Cornwall and Stargazy was a key part of why it all worked so well. Provision of some small fans for the bedrooms ( it was really hot at night) is the only thing I can think of which would have added to our stay. Last mention should be of the hot rib which we used every night under clear dark skies - magical.

Stargazy Cottage was a delight for our family holiday.

It had all the perks of a cottage we prefer; a hot tub, fabulous decor, parking. We couldn’t fault it. The cottage is situated in Trescowe and even though it’s on a road; that road isn’t busy or noisy. The surroundings are so tranquil and peaceful. Which is ideal for us as we wanted to get away from busy home life. The cottage has excellent information so you can get your bearings and see how far things are away. Praa Sands beach was the closest and provided an excellent day out. In all honesty we are very sad to leave. And are hoping to return soon. If I had to be really, really picky I would say it would be helpful to have kitchen roll or some kind of kitchen cleaning equipment to help clean up spillages. The bed linen on the master bed felt rough and some of the pillows were rock hard. But these are really minor things!! This is an excellent cottage for families young and old. Highly recommended

Where to start!

What a wonderful cottage, it is stunning, everything has been thought about, there is nothing they don’t have. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need. All excellent quality appliances, including a washing machine which is a godsend when there are a few of you. All the en-suites are fabulous and the decor throughout the cottage is of a very high quality. Everything was fantastic! The only downside is that the small double bed in the Stargazy room is indeed small, it does say this in the listing but I don’t think we realised how small it would be. But seriously other than that this cottage is perfect. We have already recommended it to a number of friends.
