“Thoroughly enjoyed the cottage and hot tub.”

The location was perfect for us with the quiet surroundings but within easy reach of beaches and towns

The location was perfect for us with the quiet surroundings but within easy reach of beaches and towns

“The cottage is as described, very comfortable and in an ideal location for travelling around south Cornwall.”

The host was friendly and helpful. The bottle of fizz and flowers on the table were a nice touch. The only negative on this occasion is we were not aware in advance there would be of a lot of noise from heavy plant on site for building work on the farm where the owner are building their new home. This was particularly intrusive through the first weekend when wanting to use the hot tub and spoilt the peace and quiet for a lot of the time. We would go back but only once their building work is complete.

Mrs Cox April 2021

“Perfect location for exploring Cornwall - 40mins to St Ives, 30 mins to Padstow.”

Holiday let was very well set up, loved the the hot tub and log burner. Extra plus were the Sirloin steaks and sausages that you could order from the owner, absolutely delicious! Also you can get eggs from the farm up the road.

“Really enjoyed our stay at Gwennal cottage.”

The cottage had everything you would need and was very clean and tidy. We loved the hotub and log burner! Excellent location. The owner was very willing to help where possible to ensure our stay went well. We would definitely stay again.

Mr Singer August 2020

“We loved the the location, the hot tub and facilities were all excellent.”

The mattress could have been more comfortable which is why we had to mark down for comfort otherwise we were thoroughly impressed with everything

Mrs Beddows December 2019

“We felt like we were living in a goldfish bowl.”

No privacy. The bedroom curtains were closed all the time. Even the front door was glass top to bottom! There is no privacy for the hot tub either, particulary from our neighbours. We have more privacy at home and we live in a city!!

- Mrs Beddows, December 2019
Miss Devine September 2019

“Absolutely loved our accommodation and hospitality, we will definitely be coming back and bringing family.”

Never felt so comfortable and at home. Cottage was a lot more spacious than we thought from the pictures. Incredibly relaxing, bed really comfortable, spotlessly clean and hot tub was fantastic. Can’t wait to come back!

- Miss Devine, September 2019
Mrs Hughes June 2019

“Arrived to find we were next to a building site and so lorries and cement mixers started around 7.”

30am and went on all day until 4.30 every day.. Thick dust was blowing everywhere and so not possible to use outside seating area or hot tub during our whole stay. Sad as it was so sunny and we had to stay inside with windows shut when at the cottage. Also mentioned the fan oven was not working and was told they had a number to ring for repairs. Did not get looked at so luckily we eat out all week.but hoped it was fixed for the next victim.

- Mrs Hughes, June 2019

Many thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback and I am sorry to hear about your experience. We were not aware of the disruption: as soon as we heard about the building work we offered you a full refund and to be relocated. You declined our offer and decided to stay. Unfortunately that week the gods were against us. The wind uncharacteristically turned due south, and picked up to 50mph! This did not help the situation. The oven did work, albeit without the fan. I am afraid we couldn't source the part required in time. the oven has since been replaced. We are committed to ensuring our guests enjoy their stay - I am sorry our efforts didn't help in this case.

“A very peaceful setting in the beautiful Cornish countryside.”

Miss Gale February 2019

“Lovely cottage, would highly recommend to anyone loving for a peaceful escape in Cornwall, only 45-1hr drive away from amazing beaches and fishing villages.”

The cottage was exactly how described and great hosts

- Miss Gale, February 2019
Mrs Lawrence January 2019

“The place was warm clean and comfortable had everything you needed, the hot tub was lovely and relaxing and was much enjoyed the end of the day, after walking or shopping would go there again.”

- Mrs Lawrence, January 2019
Mrs Henley-durcan December 2018

“There is only a washing machine not a washer/dryer Wall in bedroom is damp so could cause problems to those with breathing issues Great for those who can't use a bath as it has a walk in shower Great base for touring Cornwall as it is central for everything We didn't meet the owners as they were away but the neighbours who were left in charge were excellent - a welcoming bottle of prosecco, poinsettia, cream and scones went down very well.”

All in all a great place for us to stay

- Mrs Henley-durcan, December 2018
Mrs Parker October 2018

“A beautiful location, close to lots of places to visit.”

.the lodge was beautiful, the scones and wine went down a treat ... hottub was so relaxing ...we would highly recommend “Gwennel lodge” ..and we will def return ....

- Mrs Parker, October 2018
Mr Tooth September 2018

“Superb accommodation.”

Good location. Great hosts. Great for the dog.

- Mr Tooth, September 2018
Mrs Purdy September 2018

“A wonderful flat for anyone with mobility difficulties or using a wheelchair, it has everything you need and more.”

A warm welcome from the owner was nice to receive. Property is well appointed to visit main attractions but is still hidden away enough to be peaceful.

- Mrs Purdy, September 2018
Mr Woodberry August 2018

“Great place to stay, very spacious and comfortable.”

Hot tub was a lovely feature and enjoyed using it! Easy access to all towns. Amazing welcome gift from the friendly owners.

- Mr Woodberry, August 2018
Mr Brookshaw August 2018

“Fantastic base for exploring Cornwall, this was our first visit to this part of the country and we will be Back!”

Gwennal is a lovely character cottage with everything you could wish for, even a washing machine, the dog loved sunbathing on the terrace, whilst we lounged in the hot tub. A lovely touch too from the owners, milk, wine and amazing cream scones just what we needed after our long drive down from Yorkshire. Can't wait to come back and bring more of the family to experience it, as there are more than just this property for rent on the site

- Mr Brookshaw, August 2018
Mr Eales May 2018

“The holiday was fantastic and accommodation was excellent.”

However your listing stated there was an ensuite shower and a bathroom with bath which was incorrect. We were happy with what we had but you may wish to revise your details.

- Mr Eales, May 2018
Mr Ruddick May 2018

“We entered the room to have some cream cakes and wine what a nice thought.”

The cottage was absolutely beautiful. It is a little remote but preferred that as it was a base to visit the lovely place of Cornwall. Lovely relaxing holiday and would recommend this place to anyone. The hot tub was a bonus very clean and just the right size for the both of us. Well done to Cornish Holidays and Paul and Sue the owners.

- Mr Ruddick, May 2018
Mrs Davies February 2018

“This was the best retreat and loveliest farm.”

Anyone who stays here is lucky... I almost don’t want to submit this as I fear it may be difficult to book it again.
