Brian Comments not to be published; 1, The visitors manual needs updating; the contact details are wrong and have been for 3-4 years. The wireless code is supposed to be on a table? When I asked for the internet password it was emailled to me! Not clever when you have no internet. Instruction for recycling and rubbish would help.The banisters are very sticky. Small maintenance issues need to be rectified. i.e.Fuse cupboard door led on floor, fire extinguisher holder loose in bedroom 1, 3 vacuum cleaners left in rooms. However all these are minor and could be sorted in an hour. All in all great property.

“We reviewed the feedback just before our visit.”

A regular feature of the comments was that the accommodation wasn’t clean. We found the property to be dirty, given previous feedback this is not a difficult issue to resolve and would have expected this issue to be immediately addressed, we were very disappointed to find that it had not been.

“The hovers toclean the flooring need replacing .”

Perhaps a new laminate flooring would not go a miss . Re fresh access staircase to property All in all we enjoyed the property

- Mr Marsden, July 2018
“The A4 file about the property needs updating.”

The telephone number to call if there is a problem with the property, belongs to previous owner (according to previous holiday maker handwritten notes). We had no need to call but felt the file needs a good overhaul. Details about rubbish & recycling were missing - we ended up putting all rubbish in bins outside the property instead of separating & recycling! This needs to be addressed as we felt embarrassed that we didn't know what to do - observation of nearby bins was not helpful. I felt the floors could do with a proper clean. I washed the bathroom floor (on hands & knees with floor cloth on the day of our arrival) as it was dusty, had hairs & looked grey. The change was noticeable. Although there were plenty of vacuum cleaners available - I think a clean with mop & bucket would be better on laminate floors? The views as described & depicted were fantastic. The apartment met our needs in terms of location & facilities but felt it would be better for an update & better cleaning.

“Location and in particular the view from the balcony are fabulous and exactly as described, however the balcony itself needs reboarding - every one is loose.”

For the price charged the property is average and would benefit from a deep clean and general TLC. In particular the laminate floor directly in front of the balcony door is loose and slides 1" or so... I slipped on this and went straight out the door into the balcony rail. The TV sound failed on the first day, the picture a couple of days after that and never came back which was frustrating with a 4 year old in residence. The kitchen is basic and flimsy but adequate, however the frying pans are not suited to an electric hob, don't heat well and need changing. If these things were fixed we would definitely consider booking again, but given the price we feel the property is trading on the view and location and neglecting the property itself.

- Mrs Gallon, June 2018
“Higher Mount View is a very comfortable apartment with all one could expect for an enjoyable holiday.”

We have no complaints and will definitely be booking again for next year.

- Mr Smith, April 2018
“What a fantastic property, the view from the top floor was amazing This was a Home from Home, an excellent well presented cosy place to stay There was every amenity you could have hoped for in this very well finished apartment Marazion is a great little place with a choice of restaurants you would not get in most Towns Pasties and Scones in abundance, especially the ones left for us by the owner A great property with great local food, many thanks for a great weeks stay!”

- Mr Fryer, March 2018
“We loved this holiday so much we have booked again for next year's half term already.”

Everything as it describes especially the view. Lovely and warm and I now miss hearing the waves from our bed at home . Perfect The lounge sofa the (sofa bed one) was a little worn and uncomfortable now but used the other sofa more which was not a problem . As you enter Camelot house it looks a little worn down and dark but as soon as you see the views from up the stairs and in the flat you forgive this. Can't wait to return .

- Mrs Holt, February 2018
“Fantastic views from picture windows and balcony of the Mount.”

Exactly what I expected and hoped for.

- Mr Lewis, September 2017
“Great location, in easy reach of resturants and areas of interest”

- Mr Burton, May 2017

The property

With some of the finest views that Cornwall has to offer, this second floor apartment occupies prime position in the heart of Marazion.

The apartment's elevated vantage point offers spectacular views from the small private balcony and the rooms at the front to St Michael's Mount which stands majestically in the blue waters of Mounts Bay.

Occupying the top floor of an attractive house, it is approached via stairs from the ground floor.

The living room is open plan with cushy seating facing the seascape and a well equipped kitchen and dining area to the rear.

Bright and sunlit, there are French doors leading from the living room to a private balcony - an ideal spot to watch a romantic sunset.

A double bedroom with a king size bed and large picture windows with fantastic sea views, an attractive twin bedroom and a modern shower room complete the accommodation.

There is also off-road parking for one car.

Described as one of the 'most beautiful bays in the world', the crescent of the bay stretches from the Lizard to Land's End, encompassing great day trip destinations such as Mousehole, Porthleven and Porthcurno.

Marazion Beach, which is favoured among families for its safe bathing, lies a stone's throw from this attractive top floor apartment as does the village centre with its charming blend of galleries, curio shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes.

A 20 minute drive north-west will transport you to the fishing village of St Ives and the north coast, famous for its surfing beaches and dramatic cliff top walks.

Higher Mount View is a fabulous destination for couples and small families at any time of year.
