  • "As ever a fantastic Christmas break for myself and my Wife to celebrate our wedding anniversary at The View."

    Waking up everyday to the awesome vision of Port Gaverne beach, walking around the area, there is nothing that can equal this experience. Then ending up in either Port Gaverene Hotel or the Golden Lion for a couple of pints. Heaven. On the last day a Pod of Dolphins arrived, what a treat.

    It was marvellous. Just looking out through the massive window was an artistic joy as the blue skies and then the dark clouds and even the low misty clouds through changing light really changed the atmospheric landscape, so much so, that we would love to return to this wonderful setting. A fabulous holiday.

  • "We had a wonderful week at the View."

    One thing was that there were instructions that we could find giving details about the basics, bins, bottles, etc etc. I did go in to the office to ask about this and they told me to leave any empty bottles by the bins outside. So a little more info like that would be good but generally it's an extremely nice flat with fantastic views.

    Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and would love to welcome you back anytime in the future! We are in the process of putting fresh and updated information packs in our properties so this will include the bin collection details also. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner.

  • "Lovely property with a beautiful view across the bay to Tintagel."

    We even saw gannets and cormorants in the distance over the sea. Clean and well equipped apartment in a quiet location with a good parking space. Table was perfect for puzzles. We enjoyed being in Port Isaac with cliff walks, local farm shops, local bays and Tintagel. Beautiful. We can recommend the Chapel Cafe, and also the gift shop Secrets. Good cakes from the pasty shop, good crab sandwich from the shellfish place by the harbour. For city dwellers, be aware that google is not correct in its expectations of opening times for the shops in Port Isaac! We had a fantastic holiday here and loved it! Unfortunately the apartment was cold for the first night as presumably the storage heaters hadn't been turned on the night before, but just warm enough the rest of the week. We didn't use the open fire but we could have bought firewood at the local co-op for this. WiFi code is available on the back of the router - different to the one in the welcome email.

    Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we are so happy you enjoyed the property and next time if there is any issues please dont be afraid to contact the local office and we can get those issues sort out as soon as possible, we do hope to welcome you back again soon.

  • "We had a really lovely week at The View."

    the view from the living room/ kitchen is superb- such joy to be able to look out to the sea all day from the comfort of your own holiday home. We were lucky enough one evening to see a pod of dolphins jumping while we were in the sitting room! The apartment was beautifully clean and very well equipped. The only thing to note is that the heating is supplied by night storage heaters that are really difficult to control (as the controls are so old and not intuitive) and not effective by the time the cooler evenings come. However, after a telephone call to Sykes to explain our concerns about the heating, within an hour, a friendly maintenance man had turned up with a portable heater that solved all our problems! We would definitely recommend Sykes to our friends.

    Thank you so much for your kind words. It's great to hear that you had such a fabulous stay at The View and managed of the amazing views the property offers! Our maintenance team will inspect the heating controls so these are more effective and easier to use for guests use. We hope we can welcome you back for another fantastic stay in the future! - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

  • "Beautiful property, we had a lovely stay, "the view" does exactly what it says on the tin, it was stunning and we were sad to leave."

    Tastefully decorated and well equipped. The only negatives, were lack of linen, which I only noticed on the day we travelled (phew!), the mattress wasn't great for my back, could perhaps benefit from a better one, lack of dishwasher (as advertised), which wasn't a problem for us, but might be for some and the very early checkout time(9am) which seemed a bit harsh. Minor things though and they didn't spoil our stay, just constructive criticism. We loved it and would recommend this property and would stay there again ourselves.

  • "The cottage is small but comfortable with beautiful views."

    The prescence of the long term tenants adjacent - two men and their small kids and seemingly endless visitor stream- does present a problem as the walls are thin enough to hear wailing and admonishments, lots of door slamming and over 100 pairs of shoes and wellies lining the entrance and halls, even coats hung up so you don't have much of a feel of privacy. Also, the directions for recylcing were to take them to a bin in the car park; there was no bin there. I would expect this house to have its own bin. Finally, 2 rolls of toilet paper for 2 people for an entire week? Smacks of cheapness, although it now seems to be the norm. No one wants to have to go out to buy overly priced toilet paper whilst on vacation. Even an honor box or pay scheme would be better.

    Hi Sandra, Many thanks for your feedback, very useful. Unfortunately this response box has limited space so I can't go into too much detail, but we will try to make improvement and I'll take the issues raised up with John Bray (who actually don't read any feedback) and also Seapoint Residents Association. We hope, however, that you enjoyed your stay and that you'll be back. Best wishes. Property Owner

    Away from the all the stress of home life. Although The View is in Port Isaac We wake up to the sight of Port Gaverne cove and in the distance Tintagel Bridge, there is nothing like it. Hoping to visit again in 2022. We love getting out and walking around the area in any weather it then a pint or two at the Golden Lion or The Port Gaverne Hotel, this cannot be equaled.

    Hi Mark and Chris. So glad that you like staying at our flat. Stunning views aren't there. However, one question, which you might not be able to submit an answer to, but would you like Christmas decorations put up? We're never sure whether to do this as some people just want to get away from Christmas all together and would not appreciate decorations. Best wishes. Property Owner

  • "Regarding our recent stay at The View, which we returned to for a second Christmas break and to celebrate our third Wedding Anniversary."

    As ever a fantastic break, ideal location and a welcome parking spot for the car. The View offers us everything we could ask for and this year some lovely subtle Christmas touches which added to the enjoyment of our holiday. Very quiet and peaceful unlike last year when we had the Boxing Day storm; and as ever spotlessly clean and tidy, and a lovely log fire every night. Lots of other memories returned with us, exploring the caves at Port Gaverne the lovely food and drink in the Golden Lion and finally getting to eat at The Krab Pot, what a treat. The only down side to stopping at The View and Port Isaac, is the final day when we have to say Goodbye. Hopefully we will be able to stop again Christmas 2019, who knows if the lucky 6 numbers get drawn we could move to Port Isaac and retire. Once again many thanks to the John Bray team and the owner of The View for making everything perfect.

  • "We stayed at The View in September."

    The apartment was clean, tidy and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need and we watched a couple of the dvd's too which was a bonus. The View certainly lives up to its name, you cannot help but look out of those lovely full height windows! Short walk along the coast to Port Isaac which is nice and down the hill to Port Gaverne which has a nice cosy pub. Should we return to the area I would not hesitate to book through John Bray Cornish Holidays again. Please pass my compliments to the owners of this property as to the beautiful way it is decorated, if I was lucky enough to own a home by the sea I would decorate it exactly the same!

    So first refusal on the property is amazing thank you. My two children thoroughly enjoyed theirselves and are also looking forward to returning! We really loved The Cornish Cove cafe and the owner and ladies that work their were so welcoming. The views were so lovely and we enjoyed our adventures walking along the cliffs! Our last day was lovely also as we went to watch the fishermen singing on the beach. Thank you again

About the location

PORT ISAAC

Polzeath 6.5 miles; Padstow 16 miles

Port Isaac; one of the true Cornish treasures. A beautiful fishing village nestling in a steep sided valley, the old village in the valley remains unchanged from its days of fishing, slate export and smuggling in the previous century. An abundance of small character properties complemented by larger cliff-top retreats, can be found with easy access to the numerous restaurants and shops of the village. The sandy harbour provides an abundance of rock pools as the tide retreats. There is ample parking at the top of the village and the village is a popular tourist destination with plenty of attractions including the dramatic Doyden Castle, the beautiful Lundy Bay and the famous Doc Martin's clinic. There are also plenty of pubs, restaurants, and shops in the village. Just a short drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike.
