"We booked Dovecote in March 2022 despite an Oct 2021 review saying the oven did not work: Well guess what?"
The oven still doesn't work in June 2022. The cottage is in a beautiful place, but needs a deep clean, and the mattress on the double bed should have been replaced years ago! We didn't expect a welcome pack, but a pint of milk in the fridge would have been nice after driving 200 miles! The owner obviously takes his customers for granted as witnessed by the general maintenance of the site, and the weeds growing out of the step at the back door. Not impressed... !!
Sorry to hear you didn't enjoy your stay with us, first I have heard about the mattress people always comment on how comfortable it is. We have looked at the cooker after both this comment and the one before and guess what it does work. If you read the welcome pack there are instructions in there on how to use the cooker. The garden is constantly looked after grass regularly mowed and only last week I trimmed backed the bushes

"The shower head desperately needs replacing , main oven did not work ,bedroom radiator did not work but did not spoil holiday apart from the website showed the hot tub was exclusive use for our cottage ."
... did not mention there was 4 other cottages that also had use for the hot tub which was a reason why booked it and with covid did not use the facility

"Lovely spot nice cottage and very helpful housekeeper."
Lovely beaches near by, great walks and near to Gardens of Heligan and Eden Project.
We would suggest that one kitchen cupboard is left empty to store feed. Every cupboard is filled with crockery. Explanation of where the video player is ( under the stairs) and instructions. We took videos but did not find it for over a week, we assumed it had gone. A little bit more info on listing re dog facilities would be useful, only very small dog safe deck, and no dog safe garden. A gate could be put across the front patio or the garden could be made dog safe. It worked for us as we have a small dog.

"No serious issues, but felt property needed updating."
Lighting very poor in both living area and main bedroom. Although a very warm week we were unable to prevent heating coming on - seemed to be linked to water heating.

"What can I say we absolutely loved it."
The cottage was one of the best we have stayed in all you would need and so warm. The place was amazing. Brilliant location for doggy walk. Dodman Point a must and Hemmick beach is a hidden gem. 10 minutes walk to town for chips and shop. Excellent owners so nice and the fry up supplies on arrival an excellent surprise. We all Loved it

"Location location location, that's what they say and Dovecote is a classic example."
We arrived way too early but Jayne still found us somewhere to park which allowed us to pull on some boots and follow the coastal footpath into Mevagissey, what a fantastic start to the holiday. We got back to the cottage at 1600hrs to find the best welcome pack ever, enough for a full English including bread and milk. Dovecote was warm and cosy and though there was no bath the shower was superb. We had a lovely break and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to friends and family, well done Jayne and thanks again for Dovecote, Steve and Di xx

"Just like previous comments really."
.. Internet was poor bit hit and miss. Page could not be displayed.... And cooker dials non exsistant... But we managed fine... Fantastic clean barn, loved it, and the bed was amazing. Best night's sleep I've had since I don't know when.. 10/10 kids and Betty the boxer loved it..
Overall even with the couple of niggles 10/10".. Would stay again without a doubt..

"We had a fantastic break staying at Dovecote Cottage - Gorran Haven."
The Cottage is in a great location for coastal walks and very peaceful during this time of year. The cottage was spotlessly clean and perfect for our needs - the owners put up Christmas decorations and left a couple of bottles of Prosecco under the tree - Thank you very much!!
