  It was lovely to have the little extras as a small welcome basket and a Christmas tree in the hall which added to our new year experience. Nice little notes left buy the housekeeper gave a more personal touch and the enclosed garden for our little furbaby was a bonus. We will rebooked in the future as we loved are time in your holiday home.

• "This is our second stay at this property and it doesn't fail to impress."

  It is beautifully and thoughtfully presented and provided with a range of useful equipment including tumble dryer, coffee maker, USB charging sockets and a smart TV. The welcome pack continues this trend with the spacious entrance hall providing sufficient room to store our all weather gear with the Christmas tree being a nice touch. Parking is directly at the front of the property. Charlestown itself has a couple of very good pubs both serving excellent food and a few cafe's & other restaurants - all of a very good standard. Will not hesitate to visit again.

• "Positives - First class location near the sea and all restaurants, the cottage was squeaky clean."

  Negatives - Whilst the cottage is a five person bed house there is only enough seating for four. The welcome package was lovely but a worth a mention in the particulars would be appreciated. My only gripe was the guest double bed mattress which was uncomfortable. Some of the crockery needs replacing. Other than that can highly recommend to everyone.

  Thank you for your feedback and sorry that there were some negative aspects to your stay at Speedwell. The property is only listed and advertised as a four-person holiday let with the addition of a fifth bed included just to give a four-person holiday group some additional flexibility. Thanks for your other comments which we will act upon. Property Owner

  The cottage itself is bright, airy and spacious. A beautiful large hallway and staircase, a really good sized and well equipped kitchen and three decent sized bedrooms with an en suite to the master bedroom. Unusually for me, I slept incredibly well throughout the entire stay. Out the back is a beautiful patio, with a stream trickling by, just beyond the fence. The property is well maintained, with a helpful caretaker nearby, I have to say that the property was absolutely spotless throughout, a rare luxury perhaps. The welcome basket, including milk, cream tea components, bread and coffee pods was a really nice touch and very welcome. Parking is conveniently just outside the property. All in all a perfect base for a holiday.

• "We found Speedwell to be a comfortable house - we quickly felt at home."

  We would recommend this house to anyone. The location is great and fantastic for a holiday. It would have been 5 Stars all the way if it were not for a couple of niggles. Firstly, we asked to bring items - when they are already there eg. tea towels, hand gels etc. The wifi in the house is strong and useful but the television is old and not able to display modern apps like Netflix or Amazon Prime and a freeview recorder would not go amiss. I know that watching TV is a secondary event but there are times when it is watched Lastly, the two armchairs are starting to lose their 'bounce'. These 'niggles' should not put anyone off as this is a lovely clean property and a credit to those who look after it.

  Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review. We are so glad that you thought the house was comfortable and you felt at home there. Just to let you know that we have now updated the TV and put a smart TV in place. We have also ordered two new arm chairs which will be in place in the next couple of weeks. We very much look forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

  The parking is conveniently directly outside the premises. There is plenty of room for a family; although we were two plus dog we could appreciate the space. There is a lovely little back courtyard which in May had the sun for a large part of the day. I imagine in high summer it is a wonderful suntrap! The cottage itself is well furnished with comfortable beds and settee/chairs and has great storage space both inside and out. The only thing I'd change is the addition of shelving in the two bathrooms as there is nowhere to put toiletries and makeup. We will definitely look to book there again.

  It is situated right in the middle of the village extremely close to the harbour, beaches and all its amenities, which is great for young children or those unable to walk long distances as it is all on the same level. The cottage has a downstairs cloakroom/WC which is not included on the description but was an appreciated addition. The caretaker Andy was brilliant, he called beforehand so we had a contact number, which we did have to use as we were not sure how to turn the radiator on in the en-suite, he quickly came around and assisted us. There were cushions for the chairs in the back garden stored in the shed, unfortunately we only discovered this on the last day so were not able to make use of them.

• "The location was superb, could not have been any closer to local facilities & attractions."

  The cottage was kept immaculately, & the cleanliness & functionality of all appliances & general décor was 100%. A very relaxing cottage to stay in for a week, well-situated to use as a base for exploring other areas of Cornwall, & we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday. Thank you Sykes, Highly Recommended!

• "Speedwell is a great holiday cottage."

  It's clean, comfortable and really homely. Charlestown is a great base for a holiday in Cornwall with great local pubs, coffee shops and restaurants and lovely beaches and walks from the harbour. We will definitely be back.

  Beautifully clean with barely used appliances/ utensils etc. The cottage doesnt have a dishwasher as stated in the listing though.

• "This cottage is fabulous!"

  It is warm and clean and has everything you can think of that you might need. The new ensuite is lovely. It is a real home from home. The welcome basket was a great treat, thank you! It has its own parking space and it is just a couple of minutes to the beach and restaurants. We all really enjoyed our stay here and have booked again for next year. Definitely worth a stay.
