Gweal

Very clean and comfortable house.

The cream tea on the table was a nice welcome. Location is perfect for touring Cornwall, being just five minutes drive from Truro, and with a village shop and pub just around the corner.

What a lovely bungalow this is.

Very quiet location, ideal place to visit south coast and north coast Cornwall. The bungalow was spotlessly clean , beds very comfortable and provides everything you'd need from lovely white towels to washing up liquid and cleaning products. All furniture and accessories are top quality. 100% recommended. The pub round the corner does an excellent Sunday roast too.

Excellent property in a good location.

Very well maintained and equipped. Highly recommended.

It was a pleasure to stay in this very well presented bungalow.

Gweal was the perfect location for our week exploring Cornwall and seeing friends in Truro.

The accommodation is spacious, light and airy, and all the furnishings were very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped too. It was certainly a lovely, restful location to return to after a day out. We would definitely stay there again, if only to see the water lillies flowering in the nearby Penrose Water Gardens!

Gweal is the ideal holiday accommodation to explore the popular sights of Cornwall.

It’s located on the edge of Truro in a very quiet village on a bus route into the city. The bungalow is tastefully decorated and furnished and the kitchen is well equipped. We had a very comfortable stay at Gweal and will return if we visit that part of Cornwall again. Would highly recommend!

Well appointed and very comfortable modern bungalow.

Quiet location and ideally positioned for visiting popular Cornish tourist spots. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return.

Lovely homely property, very comfortable and clean in a perfect location.

Would definitely stay again.

This Holiday was so relaxing and nothing we needed everything was there, comfy beds after 5 hour journey it was so nice to get so comfortable even the furnishings was beautiful and comfy sofa, I would well recommend this bungalow we found this in 2023 and well worth a visit.

It’s that comfy i was back there in July this year 2025 i can tell everyone will enjoy it there its got 5 stars from us.Maggie & Paul

Gweal is in a great location for exploring Cornwall.

The bungalow is clean and modern. We could not find anything wrong. When we come back to Cornwall we would definitely look to stay in Gweal.

What a wonderful bungalow definitely will recommend and stay there again quiet and in a excellent location thanks again

Just returned from a four night stay at Gweal.

Excellent location and the property was wonderful, it had everything we needed and more. The weather may have been an issue but returning to the bungalow after a day dodging the rain made the trip unforgettable.

Gweal is a delightful home from home holiday bungalow.

It is very tastefully decorated, superbly clean and the bed was extremelycomfortable. The welcome bowl of goodies was a much appreciated gesture and the information folder was excellent. I would not hesitate to highly recommend a stay at Gweal to a anybody looking for a quite base to stay central to attractions around Cornwall. Carol & Dave Kimberley

The Cottage was excellant and made our holiday perfect .

Thank you so much

Great place to stay, very central for exploring that part of Cornwall.

Very well furnished & equipped. Great to have somewhere to hang clothes in garden but could do with a washing basket. Maybe a lighter duvet option in the summer as we were sweating! Would certainly recommend

Wonderful cottage for 2/3 people in a great location.

Nice quiet environment, with Truro just a few minutes away. Furnished to a very high specification.... Just one minus point.... the settee was too darn comfortable....

The property was very clean, tidy, comfortable and spacious.

It had everything we required for our stay. It was ideal for our stay. We very much enjoyed the welcome Cornish cream tea. The property was in an ideal location for visiting the many attractions in Cornwall. We would definitely consider this property again when we visit Cornwall.

A lovely cottage recently refurbished.

Easy access to Truro and other parts of south Cornwall.

Great location for exploring Cornwall.

Convenient for food shopping etc in Truro. Malpas is a lovely place to visit close by. Quiet place to unwind after a day out. Very clean and comfortable with everything we needed and more. Highly recommend. Thank you Gill & Ritchie.

A beautiful bungalow, situated in a lovely village location.

There was everything we could have needed for our stay, the neighbours are incredibly friendly and the owner genuinely cares that each person has an enjoyable stay. The scones, jam and clotted cream were a very welcome extra! I would not hesitate in recommending this property to family and friends and have already booked my return stay. Thank you so much.

A great place for us to stay - clean, comfortable (beds & sofa in particular), peaceful, well equipped, good value, great location for access to places.

We had a very comfortable stay, the house was very well equipped.

The location was ideal for the places we wanted to visit, east and west of the location, The neighbours were welcoming and friendly. We could have done with a measuring jug, and a pair of oven gloves to get the enormous casserole dish out of the oven ! Also there were no cleaning materials at all, so we bought some toilet cleaner. Extra black rubbish bags would also have been good. Thank you for a lovely place to stay.

We had a great stay, the property was extremely clean and tidy.

Well organised key collection and all in all it was an easy and lovely place to stay. In the middle of all the attractions, however, far enough away for it to not feel touristy. The kitchen was equipped with everything you could need and more. It was an outstanding property. We even had a text from the owners checking in which was a lovely touch, thank you! The only tips I would give would be; to make the garden area nicer for guests to spent time in, a washing line to hang towels and swim wear, Option for bed guards for the single beds as they were exceptionally high for our two children. And the mattress on the king size bed could really do with being replaced for a firmer mattress. Thank you for a great holiday to Cornwall and the added welcome hamper

Gweal is a cracking little gem of a bungalow, set in a very quiet little estate, with Truro only 2 miles away it gave us a good base to get our runs in especially to the Heron Inn, Malpas for a morning coffee in the their coffee shop.

The bungalow itself was clean and set out well… nice space for parking thank you. Storage was ok for clothes but it’s not ample but we made do with what was there. There’s two points that made it not so wonderful 1. Heating…all hot air radiators are locked out so you can’t add heat into the place… there is a boost setting you can use but that is for an hour and it does very little to the rooms and you can’t dry anything apart from the heated radiator in the bathroom. 2. Grass on the front..although it makes it look nice it’s not very nice when at the start of holiday there was 4 lumps of animal poo and by the end of the holiday we had 8 lumps…not a great visual when you are in and out every day.

Stylish and well appointed.

We were really pleased with the property and the cleanliness of the property.

Loved the welcome pack and the message to welcome us. Great central place for visiting beaches / attractions on both coasts. Would definitely recommend this property. Only one slight problem was there was no bath mat and the bath was quite slippery (probably because it was so clean) Overall a lovely property and a great holiday. Thank you

Immaculately clean, modern and comfortable bungalow.

Very well equipped (a small frying/omelette pan the only thing we missed). Friendly neighbours. The cream tea and local apple juice on arrival were much appreciated. Easy level parking in front of property. Shortlanesend village is quite ordinary but has a pub, convenience store, nature area, nearby Idless woods & a high-end restaurant. Also a football field/recreation area with some great playground equipment around the corner from the property. It's on a bus route to Newquay, Perranporth and Truro and there's good access to the main roads to explore this lovely part of Cornwall.

Wow this was a lovely bungalow We will be booking again best we’ve had.

Everything we needed and lovely comfy beds this was a brilliant find, It’s a credit to the owners Jill & Richie

So very well equipped best we have ever had.

Kitchen had absolutely everything you could possibly need. Loved the sofa. Comfy beds. Good location and a friendly neighbour

The property did everything we needed and the instructions for all elements were clear and concise.

Well done.
