"Home from home with everything you need, spotlessly clean."
Credit to owners Shirley & Chris. Would definitely recommend (but don’t want too many people to know this hidden gem as would like to return). Excellent location to visit area. Recommend Wheal Dream restaurant for Sunday Lunch & evening meal.

"If I was to pick a fault it was the heating."
It was on most of the time and made it far to warm in the morning, we was not sure how to turn it off. But that’s all.

"Beautiful old cottage with lovely modern kitchen and bathrooms."
Everything you could possibly need has been thought of and provided. Pretty garden that the children loved playing in. Shirley and Chris were very helpful, coming round within minutes of us ringing and altering the position of the stair gate up for us. They were very Covid aware and everything in the cottage was extremely clean and sparklingly. Thank you Shirley and Chris for a fantastic week …and thank you for providing us with such amazing weather too !

We enjoyed a wonderful week here. Chenalls was beautifully presented with great attention paid to Covid-19 requirements, we felt very safe. We knew if we had any issues or needed help of any kind our thoughtful hosts Shirley and Chris would be available. Thank you for a most enjoyable stay, we look forward to a return one day.

"Really lovely cottage did not want to leave cosy and traditional cottage but with a modern update."
Great quality fixtures and fittings
Perfect holiday cottage in a great location for south Cornwall
Will definitely rebook next year Gorgeous coastline around the lizard
There is slight road noise and that may bother some people who want a quiet location but only really noticeable in the garden
Helston 10 mins away for everything you need

"Really enjoyed Chenalls Cottage - the facilities were excellent."
Very central for visiting this area of Cornwall. The cottage was very comfortable.We have been with Sykes for a number of years and we do expect a certain standard if choosing a five star cottage. This did meet our expectations of that standard and would thoroughly recommend Chanells to everyone.Chris and and Shirley texted a number of times to see if all was ok. The welcome tray with Cornish treats was a nice touch. Thank you again Karen and Keith from Saddleworth.

"The house and garden was in great condition."
It was very clean and tidy. The owners could not have been more helpful with our requests. In the current circumstances it felt like a lovely safe hideaway from the craziness. Thank you so much would definitely recommend and stay again.

"The cottage was very warm and comfortable and well equipped."
We met Shirley and Chris, the owners, who called in the day after our arrival and to say goodbye before we departed. The weather was very good during our holiday and we managed to visit all the National Trust properties in the area and also spent an afternoon down on the beach at Church Cove, Gunwalloe. We had Sunday Lunch at the New Yard Restaurant at Trelowarren and visited Henleys in Helston for their very good value "Steak Night". We also visited the Slice café twice at Shirley and Chris's Homestead Gardens and they invited us along to view their other letting property which we did. We were very impressed with the smaller apartment which would be good for a shorter break. Maybe next year!

"Our cottage was really fabulous, everything worked, everything was comfortable, warm and welcoming."
We had a fabulous holiday and would definitely use Cornish Cottage holidays again.
One peculiar experience was on Tuesday a gentlemen came into the garden un-announced, didn't say hello to my mother who was standing by the open back door, he continued to spray the garden with a chemical for a short period of time and then left. We hadn't been told we'd have any trades visit or maintain the cottage while we were staying so it was very disconcerting to have him arrive and do what he needed to do. When he left my mother couldn't sit on the garden for a some time as the smell of the chemicals that had been used were too strong. If trades do need to visit the house, it would be nice to have them there when guests are not there or guests should be made aware that a tradesman will be calling, when, why and for how long.

"Beautiful home, very well laid out, high quality equipment and utensils."
Everything we needed was there. We met the owner of the holiday home at the Slice, which she also owns. A very nice place to go and eat and within walking distance of her Holiday Home. Same high level attention to detail and lovely food.
It is out of the way a little, a car is a definite requirement. There is no wifi and phone signal is not great (for using mobiles) Although this sounds like a moan, it isn’t. Just an observation for clarity.
Would we book again? Yes, without a doubt.

"Somewhat misleading to describe the property address as Porthleven."
Helston would be more appropriate. It should also be made clear out that the property sits alongside the Redruth to Helston road. With windows open during the hot weather the traffic noise, if you are not used to it, is very disruptive. I left the holiday suffering from sleep deprivation. In all other respects, the property is faultless
