"Large well equipped cottage right by the waters edge."
No facilities in the village, but only 5 miles to Truro. I would definitely recommend this cottage.

"This was an exceptional cottage to stay in - even better in reality than on the website."
Cottage was very comfortable and incredibly well equipped - a real home-away-from home.
A couple of days before we went the owner phoned us to check if there was any further information we required and he phoned the cottage a couple of days after we arrived to check we had all we needed and required further information on places to visit.
We would certainly go back to this lovely cottage - superb location too.
Thank you.

"I use the word "sublime" which ultimately captures my whole amazing experience."
The cottage is beautiful and presented superbly throughout. The setting is tranquil and peaceful. Try not to fall over the bed or walk into a wall when you turn the lights out at night. The journey from Kent is the only reason why I will not visit the property on a regular basis, but I will certainly return soon. SUBLIME!

"The owner was excellent with communication and flexibility changing dates & agreeing to add family members to the group at short notice."
The listing would benefit from explaining that there is little privacy in the front garden during high tide daylight hours as the quayside is a hive of activity. We decided not to bring our two dogs and we’re very glad as it was a dig busy area so there would’ve been a lot of extra barking. The upstairs bedroom was very comfortable and well appointed however the ground floor bedrooms have a musty, damp smell despite leaving windows open as requested. The mattresses are also rather tired, as also the fabric of the living room sofas and armchair. They seemed to take up a lot of space and one was very uncomfortable so I used the bedroom upstairs to sit in. This didn’t detract too much from our stay as the weather was so good whilst the views and waterside options are the location’s strongest point. It was a heatwave that week but the property would benefit from more than the one small cooling fan. For these reasons I feel that the property is a little over-priced and wouldn’t accommodate six adults comfortably. We were only three adults so it was adequate. The paintings were lovely and the views fabulous.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback: your comments have been noted. The owners are in touch with guests during their holiday and would have been happy to help with any issues. Regatta Cottage is set in a glorious location so locals do enjoy the surrounding area too: there are two other separate garden areas for guests to use if they require greater privacy. It is worth mentioning that this property has been successfully welcoming up to six guests on each booking for the past 20 years. We hope you'll join many others who are regular visitors to Regatta Cottage. Property Owner

Its a really comfortable and functional house for 6 people and is very well equipped overall. Only thing that would have been helpful for us in addition would be a BBQ.

"From the description I expected a peaceful location with easy access to a creek side footpath."
Instead, whenever the tide was in, there were large numbers of people just outside the cottage launching boats, jumping into the river and generally making a lot of noise and disturbance. Most of the creek side walk is on narrow roads rather than a footpath. With the level of traffic and visitors parked all along it made for uncomfortable walking.
I was also extremely surprised to be told I had to take any recycling away from the cottage! Other houses had bins that were collected and I don’t think it is reasonable to expect people on holiday to be driving around finding recycling points for the small amount of plastic and cardboard they will generate in a week.

"Amazing location for a secluded break."
Fantastic access to the estuary if you have a kayak or paddleboard. We used the large public space to our full advantage of late evening ball games.
Local walks with the dog were very pleasant and easy access to all of Cornwall, therefore great location to start from.
The scones, clotted cream and jam on arrival was very well received after a long journey, the extremely comfortable beds and cosy fire means this place is definitely worth a visit.

"This is an ideal place to stay out of season, although I would imagine it would get quite busy in the summer."
Delightful location, easy walking and friendly locals. We booked this cottage just five days before arrival as a chill out, rest and convalescent break and it filled all of our requirements. It was a pleasant surprise to find a holiday let that sleeps six which actually has comfortable seating and dining space for six. Also plenty of outdoor furniture in all areas, so there was no need to move it around. Lovely spacious bathrooms too. Would we recommend? Definately! Would we consider going back? Yes!
We had a minor problem whilst staying at Regatta Cottage which was referred to the caretaker and then sorted by the owner within a matter of hours of making contact. Much appreciated! Thank you.

Only comment re accuracy of the listing was the fact the part of the garden with direct water access was slightly away from the property across the drive, which made no difference for us but may for those with children.

"It was so easy reserving and booking Regatta Cottage with Helpful Holidays, they certainly lived up to your name."
This is the 3rd time we have booked this gorgeous cottage through them and every time has been easy and efficient and any queries answered in a professional and courteous way. Regatta Cottage is a lovely holiday house to spend the week (or more) at. We love waking up to the stunning views of the creek and it is so well positioned to visit most places. We had snow while we were there, which is a first for us, but it really added to the holiday. The cottage was very warm and comfy and we had several log fires. It is a very well equipped house with everything you should need, even down to a box of doggy toys!! Our 2 dogs loved their time here with us as there are so many places to walk and beaches to go on. Thank you Helpful Holidays for yet another super week in Cornwall
