  • "Loved loved this place."

    Attention to detail was amazing, and is well thought out Very warm and comfortable.Photos do not do it justice. Just need to add the side gate back, which joins Sea croft to Little Sea croft so your dogs, cannot wander round to Sea Croft house.. Will be back.

    Dear Tracey, so pleased to read that you loved loved Little Seacroft, especially that you appreciated the attention to detail and the property being well thought out. Glad to read you found it to be very warm and comfortable, and fab that you feel the photos don’t do it justice; sounds like you might have enjoyed Little Seacroft even more than you expected! Absolutely, while the enclosed space you refer to is officially a communal area as it is the location of the outside shower, outside tap, and wood pile, I’m 100% in agreement with you that it would just feel a little more contained if an additional gate was mounted in that area. As I’m sure you will have seen, the frame for the gate has been mounted, and following your comments, I enquired about the progress of the gate today. Pleased to report that it should be fitted imminently and so, at whatever point you return, you can rest assured that the new gate shall be waiting for you and your canine companions. Take really good care till then Tracey. Property Owner

  • "Little seacroft was a beautiful property with stunning views!"

    It was spotlessly clean & the bed was extremely comfortable! The kitchen was well stocked with all equipment needed. The only little thing & this was just personal opinion was the sofa was too low. The village of Crantock was lovely!

    Hello Leanne, thank you for taking the time to share your experience of Little Seacroft. Really pleased to read that you found the property to be beautiful and that it had stunning views. Yes, I’m with you, the changeover company are awesome, and do a fantastic job of ensuring wonderfully high standards of cleanliness. Glad also to read that you found the bed to be extremely comfortable and that the kitchen was well stocked with all the equipment needed. Thank you too for your honest feedback about the height of the sofa. It is so very difficult to create an environment which meets everyone’s favoured choice because as a species, we are so fantastically diverse; of course, you very kindly acknowledged this in your caveat ‘this was just personal opinion’. Nevertheless Leanne, I am sorry that it didn’t meet your preference. My hope, and reassuringly, my sense from your review, is that it didn’t impact too detrimentally upon your stay, especially as you found the village of Crantock to be lovely. Take good care Leanne, Michelle. Property Owner

  • "Overall it was a very enjoyable stay."

    Lovely location, very clean and well appointed property. Only a couple of minor grips, no dishcloth, blower in the kitchen was a bit of a pain overnight & the compost bin a the way over by the games room. However, these are very minor irritations.

    Hello Philip, thank you for sharing your experience; glad you that found Little Seacroft to be in a lovely location, that it was clean, and that it was well appointed. Thank you too for your constructive feedback, albeit I also hear you describing your comments as very minor irritations. I’m sorry to read that there was no dishcloth, that must have been an inconvenience for you. A clean dishcloth is scheduled to be provided at each changeover and was evidently overlooked prior to your stay, please accept my apologies and be assured that one would be available to you should you return. I’m also sorry to read that you found the blower in the kitchen to be a pain overnight. In light of your feedback, the property manager and I have reprogrammed this with the hope of making it more accessible to future guests. In terms of your comment about the compost bins being all the way over by the games room, I can very much empathise with you on the occasions that I have gone to take the compost out on a torrentially rainy day… at those times, it feels like a mission!! Part of the complexity is that because the garden is so very large and open, I’ve opted to prioritise sheltering the compost bins between the games room and the shed to avoid them being blown over in the occasional, but sometimes very intense, storm. Nevertheless, I shall think more upon your comment and whether there might be a more appropriate place to situate them closer to the house. (And hands up, the environmentalist in me is really very pleased to read of your use of the compost bins. Although I’d hoped they would continue to be used, I wasn’t sure if there was value in keeping them when I made the house available to guests, so thank you affirming my decision.) Take really good care Philip, Michelle Property Owner

  • "It is a warm and cosy cottage in a great location."

    Just what we were looking for. The owner has put a lot of thought and effort in to making sure that guests are comfortable during their stay. The facilities are excellent with lots of mod cons. We like our television and had access to a good selection of streaming services. We had two dogs with us and the garden space was brilliant. It was very secure which meant the dogs could wander freely. And large enough for them to have a good play (they’re big dogs). We shall certainly stay there again.

    Dear Angela, wonderful to read that you found Little Seacroft to be warm and cosy, and in a great location. Thank you for acknowledging my thought and effort in seeking to make sure you and other guests are comfortable. Glad that you found the facilities to be excellent and there to be lots of mod cons. Fab that you experienced there to be a good selection of streaming services too. Hands up, when I bought the TV, whilst I did a lot of research, I was both surprised and impressed by the feature that allows guests the opportunity to personalise the use of the TV for the duration of their stay and then for the TV to automatically wipe those settings for the next guest to use it afresh – so clever, especially when someone might also have their own streaming account they want access to while they’re away, but don’t want the hassle of repeatedly signing in and out. How lovely to have two big canine companions with you, and great that they were able to fully make use of the large garden; agreed, it is a well-suited space for dogs to have a good play. I feel very happy to read that you shall certainly be staying at Little Seacroft again, and I very much forward to you returning. Take good care till then, Michelle Property Owner

  • "We visit Crantock at least 3 times a year stopping in a variety of accommodation."

    Without a doubt this is the best place we have had the pleasure to stay in. Everything was spot on, warm and cosy. Comfortable settee and bed top quality bedding and towels. Very clean modern with all the essentials plus extras. The garden is a delight with outstanding views. Our visit was a sad one, bringing our beloved dogs ashes back to the place he loved. We will be back in March and May stopping in Seacroft and we cannot wait. The owner should be proud that she cares about her guest and it really shows. Thank you

    Dear Caroline, I’m so very pleased to read that Little Seacroft is undoubtedly the best place you have had the pleasure to stay in; your words mean all the more given that you are obviously exceptionally familiar with the area and the local alternative accommodation. Glad that you found it to be spot on, warm and cosy, that the settee and the bed were comfortable, and that the bedding and towels were top quality. Thank you for your kind words about the cleanliness, the modern features, and for highlighting that the essentials, and more, are provided. I’m in agreement with you, I find the garden to be a delight too, and I think it is one of the best places to enjoy those ‘outstanding views’ as you describe them. I’m so sorry to read of the loss of your beloved dog; I hope you have many happy memories with him that provide you comfort, and that scattering his ashes was an experience which brings you peace. You’re absolutely correct Caroline, I do really care about my guests, and I have a wonderful team of property managers and cleaners who are equally passionate about providing the best possible guest experience whilst staying at Little Seacroft. It genuinely brings me joy to read that you felt cared about during your stay. I look forward to your repeated visits later in the year. Take good care till then, Michelle Property Owner

  • "This is a lovely holiday cottage."

    It is warm (underfloor heating), exceptionally clean, very well equipped and has superb views from the garden. It is located within easy walking distance of one of the best beaches in Cornwall and is a short stroll from a shop and a couple of pubs. It has off-road parking and a large garden which is secure for dogs. The bed is king sized and very comfortable. The shared games room is a bonus. We think the addition of a coat stand in the lounge would be of benefit. We would definitely return.

    Dear George, I’m so very pleased to read that you found Little Seacroft to be so lovely. Yes, the underfloor heating is delightful isn’t it, I’ve always enjoyed the feeling of that underfoot. Glad that you found it to be exceptionally clean; I have a wonderful team that are now facilitating the changeovers and managing the property. Absolutely, the views are an exceptional asset to Little Seacroft as well as the close proximity to the beach, shops, and pubs. And I’m 100% with you, I think Crantock is one of the best beaches in Cornwall too. Wonderful that you found the off-road parking and large garden to be useful, the king-size bed to be very comfortable, and the shared games room to be a bonus. I think you make a really valid point regarding the coat stand. Following your comment, one has been ordered; thank you for the suggestion. Fantastic to read that you would definitely return; when you do, bring all your coats, you can test out the new feature! Take good care, Michelle Property Owner

  • "Lovely location , well equipped , unfortunately it needs a deep clean everywhere ..."

    Lovely location , well equipped , unfortunately it needs a deep clean everywhere , the dogs ball went under the sofa and bed and I was horrified with the dust hair and dirt , probably explains the constant coughing and wheezing we both experienced otherwise I would have rated this property highly

    Dear Jayne I am so sorry to read your experience. As you may have read in the property handbook, this is my first foray into holiday letting. I had employed a local cleaning company who had been highly recommended, and I am most disappointed, and angry on your behalf, that the cleaning wasn’t completed to the standard that you or I would expect of a holiday home. I really appreciate the time you have taken to comment upon your experience, and your words have made a tangible and beneficial impact on Little Seacroft. I can assure you, that should you and your human and canine companions wish to return, your experience would be very different as I have subsequently employed a different cleaning company to prevent this ever happening again. Additionally, I would like to thank you for the even-handedness of your feedback, particularly your reference to the ‘lovely location’, describing the property as being ‘well-equipped’, and stating that had the cleaning not been an issue, that you would have ‘rated this property highly’. I can understand that many people in a similar situation may not have felt inclined to present such a balanced perspective, so I would like to thank you specifically for your kindness in doing so. Take good care, Michelle Property Owner

About the location

CRANTOCK

Newquay 4.5 miles.

Crantock is a small Cornish village, just a short walk from the beach, close to the popular resort of Newquay.

There's stunning countryside all around and lots of pretty villages to explore; however, it is the coast that dominates.

There are a number of golf courses in the area, as well as National Trust properties, traditional pubs and outstanding restaurants.
