  • "Egloskerry was a beautiful property and ideal for our mixed age family with all its amazing facilities and proximity to the beach."

    There were just a few basic items we felt could have been provided - bin bags and dishwasher tablets for example.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are so pleased to hear that you and your family enjoyed your stay at Egloskerry and all feedback is shared with the owner and our housekeeping team - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

  • "Egloskerry is a truly amazing property, exactly as described."

    Genuinely less than 5 minutes walk to the beach, which is immediately in front of the house and very quiet. The house is incredibly well equipped in every respect. In addition to the usual things there is a fantastic games room with 1/2 sized snooker table and table football. There must be 500 plus DVDs and well over 1000 books scattered around the house. We stayed with our adult children and their husband / wife and one 2 year old all of whom really enjoyed the stay. The house is really big so plenty of space for everyone. We have stayed in many rentals around Europe over the last few years but this was by far the best. Excellent value for money. I would thoroughly recommend.

  • "A fantastic property for our Easter break."

    The weather wasn’t great but it didn’t stop us getting in the sea everyday and the house more than catered for the wet days. We walked to both beaches everyday and the children loved exploring the rocks when the tides were out. It was comfortable with all the amenities you could need. There was always something for the four adults and four children to do. We would love to visit again in better weather and make use of what else the house had to offer. A wonderful stay.

    Thank you very much for your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your Easter break at Egloskerry and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the Owner Property Owner

    Once reported this was quickly remedied by a same-day additional clean.

    Thank you so much for your kind words. It's great to hear that you had such a fabulous stay and had the perfect base to explore the local area from.

    It was a wonderful property and we all had the best time. The house is amazing, I am unable to find fault with anything, it was fun trying to make sure that we used all the areas in the house and garden at least once! We were also very lucky to get some perfect weather so the balcony was never not occupied. The beach was lovely too, full of shells and rockpools. Thank you again, I hope that we can one day come back and visit again.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share such wonderful feedback with us. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Egloskerry and made the most of the lovely property, including the balcony and the nearby beach. We look forward to welcoming you back hopefully very soon.

  • "We stayed last October and everywhere seemed much cleaner then - this time we found the blue casserole in the kitchen cupboard full of cooked potatoes (can send a pic if you want) and the master bed mattress cover was on the wrong way so completely ruckled up with bare mattress on show - we had to remake the bed which when done properly was perfect…."

    The dishwasher door needs fixing as it’s slipped out of position and difficult to open and close….the plates were grubby in the plate rack and had to be re washed by hand…appreciate it’s a big house to keep on top of but main areas would benefit from a proper deep clean. Quite a few light bulbs needed replacing and a nasty broken jagged stone vase still in place on the small window ledge by the dining table which we had to move out of reach last year as it’s an accident waiting to happen….we feel the lounge would benefit from a decent size sofa as was hard for us all to sit together comfortably. Great location just a shame about the housekeeping…

  • "My family and I had an incredible week staying at Egloskerry."

    An amazing house set in a beautiful setting. Fantastic spot to watch the sun set. Sadly for us the weather wasn’t great but with the games /cinema room and all the board games available we kept ourselves amused. A truly outstanding holiday rental we would all love to come again sometime. Thank you! Just a couple of negatives on our arrival at 4pm there were workmen relaying the roof decking, it was left unfinished for the whole of our stay. We understand maintenance needs to be done, but it would have been nice to have been warned. If the weather had been good we wouldn’t have been able to use it. There was a broken vase on the lounge windowsill which was very sharp and should have been removed prior to our stay. The instructions about the keys were confusing (not the right amount of keys in the key box and one was missing altogether) we weren’t sure if this was down to the workmen. However, this was sorted out for us. There is still no information about glass recycling both bins state no glass, but there are no instructions what to do with it. A garlic press would have been handy. All in all very minor problems which took nothing away from our stay, we only raise them so you can enhance the experience for future guests. We love Egloskerry!

    Thank you for taking the time to provide such detailed feedback. We are really pleased you had such a great time and really enjoyed the property. We're sorry the workmen were still on site when you arrived and that you were unable to use the roof decking. Please also accept our apologies for the broken vase that wasn't picked up on changeover as well as any confusion with the recycling - we will seek out some additional bins for the glass.We are pleased these were only minor issues for you and didn't otherwise stop you having a good time.

  • "Hi there. We are very pleased with our stay and the property."

    We had a great time. This is our second stay. We loved the house and the location. Our only issue is that we paid 36% increase year on year for the same property and same week. The feedback to improve the experience; - a welcome file would be a good idea with more information about how to work appliances and recycling information. We didn’t know what date to put recycling out or what to do with it. So that would be helpful. - more loo roll would be better as we ran out and had to buy more. - more spatulas/utensils would be good. There was no pizza cutter and only a tiny spatula. (There was a lot of utensils but not the ones we needed)

    We have been reviewing all of our feedback over this years season, we just wanted to say a massive thank you for taking the time to feedback on your stay. Your comments were noted by us here at John Bray Cornish Holidays and were raised to rectify. We hope you still managed to enjoy your visit despite these issues and would love to welcome you back to North Cornwall in the future. John Bray on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

    A guy came out and told us that there was a part missing. He helped us to get it to work. The part turned up the day we were leaving. Also an alarm kept going off every couple days minutes. This kept most of us awake for three nights. We had to call to get someone out twice before the problem was sorted out. This issue caused most of us a bad time for 3 days.

    The only negative was that cleanliness wasn't up to standard: used contact lens found near basin in ground floor ensuite; cupboards in main ensuite not wiped down leaving dust/dead insect on rims; cobwebs and dead spiders near exit to roof area. The crockery/glasses/cutlery needed rewashing as dishwasher was out of salt and rinse aid, which we replaced and all fine thereafter. These issues were all minor and did not detract from our enjoyable visit, but we hope this is useful feedback. Finally, we were very impressed with the speed of emergency call out when we suffered a power outage. Everything was back to normal operation within one hour!
