Guests say
Mews Retreat is a well-presented holiday rental with modern fittings and a clean, new feel. Guests appreciate the thoughtful welcome hamper, the secure garden, and the property's central location for exploring Cornwall. While some guests encountered issues with parking and suggested improvements for privacy and maintenance, the overall experience is positive, with the property offering a comfortable stay and a good base for touring the area.
The property is generally praised for its cleanliness, with a new and clean feel mentioned. However, a few guests noted minor oversights such as the need for an extra wipe in the bath area. The provision of clean towels and a well-maintained garden add to the positive feedback.
The location is considered good for exploring Cornwall, with easy access to various spots. Camborne itself is not a highlight, and some guests found the access road challenging. The central location is a plus, but parking difficulties and the property's alley positioning slightly detract from the experience.
Comfort is generally well-received with a super king bed and roll top bath being highlights. Some guests found the furniture flimsy and the sofa uncomfortable for long periods. The provision of a bed topper and secure yard for dogs are positives, but there are suggestions for improvement in comfort.
Facilities are adequate with a well-equipped kitchen and ample parking, despite some navigational challenges. Maintenance issues like broken bedroom windows and missing items were noted. The lack of a washing line and some kitchen essentials were mentioned, indicating room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
The welcome hamper and provision of towels and other amenities were well-received, showcasing thoughtfulness. However, it should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and may not be guaranteed for every stay. Some guests suggested the addition of privacy features and dog waste facilities.

Only small thing that needs attention is the vacuum cleaner as the brush doesn't rotate making it difficult to clean rugs.

Everywhere clean and tidy. Only negative was that it seems people were parking in the designated places they were not staying.

We had a brilliant time, we would definitely come back. The only issue we had was the parking. There was a car parked so close to our gate that we struggled to get past with our bags. But we had a great time, the shower was so nice. Also the curtain rail was broke but we were still able to close them. Thank you
