  • "Oven did not work correctly."

    I put food in the oven which should have taken 15 minutes to heat up and took over an hour. Some of the crockery was chipped and should be replaced. Separate toilet has no sink to wash hands after use. Can't see why you would have this as bathroom is next door. To heat dining room had to open the doors from living room and kitchen as radiator does not heat room enough. Weather was warmer than normal for the time of year.

    Apologies about the oven - I was not aware of this. I will ask our maintenance man to have a look at it and also to check the radiator in the conservatory. Thank you for your comments regarding the crockery. We will check this out too. The separate loo has antibacterial liquid which can be used if the bathroom is occupied. Especially when the house is fully occupied, we find the extra loo is very useful. I hope you enjoyed your stay despite these issues. Property Owner

  • "We had a great time at Pippin Cottage."

    It was just the right size for us, 4 adults, 1 teen and a dog, with a fully enclosed garden, so she could be let out with us not worrying. Everything we needed was provided, from washing machine and iron to hairdryer in the bedroom. We also had great weather for a week in Oct/Nov which meant we could go out for some lovely walks in the local area, whilst also being close enough to Penzance to go to shops/cinema/St. Michael's Mount etc. We also spent a lovely day in Falmouth and the Cornish Seal Sanctuary in Gweek. Communication with the owner was great and any queries were dealt with straight away. We hope we will be able to return again. Thanks!

    Thank you for your lovely comments and great to hear that you had such a wonderful time. We look forward to welcoming you again to Pippin Cottage. Property Owner

  • "Pippin Cottage is in a great location for exploring the west and southern parts of Cornwall."

    A very welcoming cottage with lovely comfortable beds and sofas and ideal for our 5 year old Labrador as we made use of the nearby footpaths for walks. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to holiday in this part of Cornwall.

    Thank you. We found Pippin Cottage welcoming from the moment we walked in, and so we always love to hear guests appreciating it too! We look forward to welcoming you again in the future. Property Owner

  • "Wir haben eine sehr schöne Woche im sehr ruhig gelegenen Cottage verbracht."

    Die Ausstattung des Hauses ist sehr gut, alles Notwendige ist vorhanden. Die (Doppel-)Betten sind in zwei Zimmern sehr bequem, die Einzelbetten im dritten Zimmer sind aber hart und quietschen sehr laut bei jeder Bewegung. Gemütlich ist der große Tisch im Wintergarten. Der Garten ist schön angelegt. Doch vorsichtig: Das Grundstück ist zwar eingefriedet, beim hinteren Gartentor können Hunde das Grundstück aber leicht verlassen.

    Thank you for your review. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay at Pippin Cottage. Property Owner

    The house is great. Absolutely nothing is missing. On the contrary, everything is of very good quality (good cutlery, crockery etc.) and available in large quantities. We felt very comfortable. The area is also a dream. We would stay at Pippin Cottage again anytime.

    Thank you. We are so pleased you love it as much as we do. Please come again! Property Owner

  • "Great location, lots of space for 4 people indoors and outside."

    Kitchen well equipped. Good value but a bit basic. The double bedroom had a small uncomfortable bed with basic furniture. The house had a lot of cobwebs.

    I am pleased you appreciated the space and location however I am sorry you felt the bed was uncomfortable. We replaced all the mattresses fairly recently, and often receive comments about how comfortable they are. There is a king size and a double bed as well as the two singles. I have addressed the issue of the cobwebs with the housekeepers. Property Owner

  • "Pippin cottage is a lovely cottage ."

    It is cozy and quiet tuck away from the main road and hustle and bustle of Penzance, yet very convenient , or should I say easy access to places where we wanted to see and visit. Would recommend to our family and friends if they are down on holiday in this part of Cornwall.

    Thank you. It’s lovely that you also enjoyed the peace and quiet as well as the convenience. We do too! Property Owner

  • "Pippin cottage is a lovely, spacious property that offers everything it lists on the booking site."

    Clean and tidy, windows open for a nice aired feeling on arrival. Comfortable beds and sofas, a lovely conservatory with dining table - perfect for family meals. A small selection of jigsaws, games, books and beach toys was a lovely touch. Glowing reports from other guests in the visitors book. We were unable to get a good picture on the tv but this wasn't an issue for us - we were out enjoying many of the lovely places in the surrounding area most of the time. The owner was very easy to communicate with and was happy to be contacted if any problems arose. We wouldn't hesitate to return and definitely recommend it for a holiday close to local places of interest yet a little off the beaten track for a quieter feel.

  • "Beautiful cottage in a beautiful area."

    Had everything we could ask for and more. We were so sad to leave . Only downfall was that the bed and pillows were too soft , but that was just for us and not a reflection on the cottage , which we loved.

    We’re sorry you found the beds too soft. The mattresses are all new from last year but I’m sure you’ll understand it's obviously not easy to choose ‘one size fits all’! We’re so glad you loved the cottage though and hope you will visit us again. Property Owner

About the location

GOLDSITHNEY

Marazion 1.5 miles; Penzance 4 miles; Helston 11 miles.

A typically Cornish country village with picturesque houses, shops and village pubs, Goldsithney is set back from the coast, thus escaping the main tourist rush, yet lying close to all the main attractions. Dominating the area and just 2 miles away is the off shore island castle of St Michael's Mount - reaching it via the causeway when the tide is out is a must. Right on the doorstep there are fabulous beaches, the coastal path (winding its way over the cliff tops) and plenty of sailing and fishing. Visit Penzance, with its slightly bohemian air, the cliff-top theatre at Minack or the stunningly beautiful fishing villages of Marazion and Mousehole - a superb base for exploring beautiful Cornwall.

Please note: This property accepts 2 well behaved dogs only
