Dog Friendly Mevagissey Holiday Cottages

Reviews

What our customers say about their holidays

  Our booked six night stay consisted of one night before we gave the keys back and found somewhere else to stay.

  In 25 years of renting holiday cottages, this was by far the worst. Spartan, poorly equipped, no room whatsoever, no storage space and what we believed to be us having the run of a large garden (as the photos depicted) for our two spaniels, we had a 12 x 12ft patch of grass. The tv is at a 45 degree angle to the settee, so you had to crane your neck to watch it. No net curtains so no privacy. A kitchen without a cooker, draining board or washing machine, the latter essential for a cottage that's supposedly dog friendly. As for the front door..... We were told NOT to turn the car around using the property opposite's drive which necessitated reversing down the narrow lane to get out, no mention of this when we booked. Presumably the cottage owners and the neighbour don't get on? The directions to the place weren't even accurate. If this place WAS converted from a barn, I can only assume that the barn was more comfortable. When we departed on the Sunday morning, the owners weren't in, so I texted them to say we'd left the place and to let them know where we'd left the key. Several hours later they replied to say, "oh dear, thanks for letting us know, we hope you find something more suited to your needs". No apology, no " what could we have done to make your stay better?", essentially, " thanks for your £400, 'bye". I just can't believe the glowing reviews for this place, people must have very low expectations. We will NEVER book through you again, a complete and utter disappointment. Yours sincerely Graham & Caroline Brown

  Good location, tricky to find down Browns Hill but managed to find it eventually. A few minutes walk downhill to eat out in the evening or buy provisions, bakeries are really good. Don't be put off by the church in close proximity - although it chimes every 15 mins & on the hour, we did not hear it once we were in the bedroom! The shower is amazing with good pressure which was great to use. Dogs loved the outside space, lucky with sunny weather so a nice place to sit out with a good book. Few things would improve which I have suggested to owner - kitchen utensils (e.g. only 1 wooden spatula, 3 cheap bendy knives). Just a few extra details could make this cottage even better. Tip: take a few dishwasher tablets as we only had 3, take kitchen roll, (w/up liquid & sponge is provided) All in all we had a lovely week here in Fowey, and very lucky with the weather :)

  This is the third time we have stayed at this lovely cottage.

  The location is amazing and the cottage is really lovely. It was a treat to arrive to see it had been refreshed with a new carpet etc We only have a couple of niggles: the tv is tricky and this time we did ask for help which was forthcoming. But the device isn’t great tbh and we had to sign in to our own Netflix account. It is also really tricky to get towels dry so we always take our own plus some beach towels … some more hooks in the bathroom and another heated towel rail would be amazing as the damp sea air has sometimes resulted in a boring trip to the laundrette in Truro to wash and dry towels! That said, we love the cottage and will return next year: highly recommend it ;-)

  We had a fantastic holiday at Cliff Cottages.

  It was perfect for our needs and is a great location for peace, quiet and a dip in the sea! The house was very, very clean and comfortable. We loved the hot tub and wifi was perfect, no issues with at all. We did read the previous reviews and noted about the lack of drying space, so we took our own clothes horse which did the job for us and drying towels. Might be something to consider purchasing for the house for when you cannot get towels and clothes out on the washing line. But aside from that the house and location allowed us to relax, switch off and really enjoy our holiday - so much so, we did not want to come home! We have bookmarked for returning - thank you.

  Little Orchard Barn was a vey lucky find and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

  It is one of the two best cottages we have stayed in. We received a very warm welcome along with some tasty treats. The cottage is comfortable, very well equipped and thoughtful touches make it feel very homely. Please don’t be put off by previous negative comments regarding narrow lane to access the property. It is a very short distance which we managed very well in our Honda CRV, which is not a small car and with due care we were able to drive in, turn round and drive out again with confidence. There is a lot to do in the surrounding area and the shops are close by. Do come and stay at Little Orchard Barn you won’t be disappointed. Many thanks to the owners
