“This was our first stay in Starfish Cottage & found it excellent in many ways.”
We booked through Sykes Cottages. It was spotlessly & sparklingly clean almost to the point of feeling clinical, but that is good in these Covid governed days. It was very well equipped, parking space outside, and set in beautifully landscaped grounds which are very well maintained. The only slight downsides were that we were expecting to find a dishwasher but not washing machine as that was what was advertised. On arrival we found the reverse - washing machine but no dishwasher. ...

The only slight downsides were that we were expecting to find a dishwasher but not washing machine as that was what was advertised. On arrival we found the reverse - washing machine but no dishwasher. Generally the cottage was very cosy & warm but the downstairs cloakroom was freezing cold - we could not get the radiator to work & there were no instructions in the cottage due to Covid regulations. We did as recommended and logged in to the website but that was of no use at all & we found nothing there to help us. On the leisure side, it is in a lovely part of Cornwall, but not good for walking from the cottage as access is down a long narrow lane which is not ideal as we had to use the car to go out & reach our favourite walking venues. All in all though we had a great holiday and found it overall a very good cottage.

Thank you for your comments. The owners and housekeepers go to great lengths in making sure that guests have a lovely holiday especially during these difficult times. The property has never been advertised as having a dishwasher. There is a washer/dryer in the cottage, we have updated the details on the website. The radiator in the downstairs cloakroom has been checked and is working fine, there is an isolator switch for the radiator which someone must have turned off prior to your stay. We are glad you enjoyed your stay at Starfish Cottage and we hope to see you again in Cornwall in the not-too-distant future.
