    “Potentially a beautiful holiday setting but in need of some updating and general maintenance.”

    The owner was friendly and shared his own situation at time of our stay he stated he was going through a difficult divorce but he appeared to be enjoying life and spending time with his new younger girlfriend. The hot tub was not ready for our stay but when this was requested it was sorted within two days. Kitchen was ill equipped 1 tea towel. No apron, rusty cooking pans to name but a few. Various lights were not in working order and hot water was a problem but explained the boiler was set ...

    The owner was friendly and shared his own situation at time of our stay he stated he was going through a difficult divorce but he appeared to be enjoying life and spending time with his new younger girlfriend. The hot tub was not ready for our stay but when this was requested it was sorted within two days. Kitchen was ill equipped 1 tea towel. No apron, rusty cooking pans to name but a few. Various lights were not in working order and hot water was a problem but explained the boiler was set further away so needed to let the water run for a while. Total lack of outdoor seating area and what there was had not been maintained for a while. There were other issues to say the least but we managed to get by. It is a shame as it would be a perfect holiday base it just needs general maintenance and updating. It was clean which was good, but some disappointment experienced. I would have hoped that Sykes would pick up most of the issues on general inspections if they carry them out.

About the location

CONSTANTINE

Falmouth 7.1 miles; Truro 13.4 miles.

Constantine is a charming, picturesque country village with a few shops, a pub and a lovely church, set among green rolling meadows and wooded valleys leading down to the beautiful Helford River, just 3 miles away. Famous for its mild climate, this quieter part of Cornwall has the outstanding gardens of Trebah, Penjerrick, Glendurgan and Carwinion all within 4 miles. For nature lovers and those who enjoy boats, the misty reaches of the Helford River meander upstream to Gweek, where the world-renowned Seal Sanctuary looks after the region’s many abandoned and injured seals. Falmouth, with its narrow streets, natural harbour and National Maritime Museum is just a short journey by car, while Flambards theme park (8 miles) and Argal Lake with its water sports attractions make great days out. The nearby beautiful Lizard Peninsula, with its outstanding beaches and quaint fishing villages dotting the rocky coastline, has the benefit of outstanding scenery, tranquillity, and some great walks.
