  • "The Old Bakehouse was cosy, well equipped and really comfortable."

    The open plan is ideal for those travelling with children. There is an enclosed patio with the option to hire the hot tub, though we didn’t. The location was lovely off the beaten track in a beautifully maintained area with two other cottages. The bedrooms were a great size with very comfortable beds. As the weather wasn’t good we couldn’t sit outside, however it looks ideal when you can. We were really pleased with our stay at the cottage and would certainly recommend it.

  • "Thank you for your prompt resolution regards to this property ‘the old bakery’ the boiler failed due to an unavoidable fault resulting in you moving us to the Courtyard property next door."

    Therefore my feedback relates to the Courtyard Cottage. an equally impressive well equipped and serviced property. This is the second time that we have stayed at a property within the Helland Barton Farm collection and once again we were not disappointed. Thank you for providing a comfortable homely property.

    Than you for your kind comments, we look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner Property Owner

  • "This group of cottages is beautiful, peaceful and well put together."

    It provided us with a superb base for a family Christmas. It's well equipped and spacious while keeping a cosy feel. Everything was spotless and well cared for. You do need a car as beaches, pubs and restaurants are not in walking distance. My only negative comments are the sofas are not overly comfortable and some walking maps would be helpful as there's plenty of footpaths but no idea of what went where! We stayed at Christmas, and whilst a tree was provided is was just that a tree! A few lights on it would have been nice! Having said that we'd definitely book again and not hesitate to recommend it to others.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are so pleased to hear that you had a nice stay at the property and enjoyed all that it has to offer. Thank you for your suggestions on how to improve the property, all feedback is shared with the owner.

  • "Absolutely beautiful property in a quiet secluded location."

    Spotlessly clean , high end appliances, lovely furnishings , it was like a show home . Especially loved having the coffee machine , we have since bought one for ourselves; It was a nice touch . We have also started purchasing Ecover and Method products since our stay, the same as you use, There is absolutely nothing that I could, or would wish to leave negative feedback about . The owners have obviously done their homework and thought of everything needed for a perfect stay, but haven’t skimped on cost in the process. I realise now that I’m home living in a busy city how much I miss the calm and tranquility and lovely views Please thank the lovely maintenance man, didn’t get to see him before we left to say goodbye, but what a lovely guy and an asset to your team !!

    Thank you for taking the time to leave such great feedback. We are really pleased you got to enjoy the property and your stay in Cornwall. We will, of course, pass on your thanks to the maintenance man. We do hope that we get the opportunity to welcome you back to Cornwall in the future.

  • "We enjoyed our time staying at the old bake house."

    I have listed pros and cons of our stay. Lovely and quiet area with dog walks straight from the property. Excellent BBQ which we used regularly. Very comfortable beds in each room. Only a 15 minute drive into Wadebridge then a little further to either Rock or Padstow. Could not turn the shower in the en-suite temperature down. We would have appreciated a child’s/dog gate for the stairs. I looked for one but unable to find one. We had to improvise with some chairs. Although there was a gift of wine and a candle we would have really preferred some milk in the fridge, maybe some local biscuits. There is nothing in the house to get you started. Can’t even make yourself a cup of tea. We stay in holiday cottages regularly and this is the only place we have stayed that didn’t provide basics like this. So come prepared with basic essentials. Despite the cons we would stay at the Old Bakehouse again as it is a lovely place to stay.

    Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and would love to welcome you back anytime in the future. We only wish you informed us about she shower during your stay as we could have inspected it for you. Also our properties are of a self catering nature so we do not provide items such as milk etc. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

  • "The Old Bakehouse was amazing ."

    . we all wanted to live there forever. It had everything we needed, we just needed to take food and drink. Decorated so nice throughout and great open plan layout which worked really well for our group of 5. We were given a bottle of sparkly and some chocolate which was much appreciated. We asked for a superking to be split into 2 singles which suited our group better and this was arranged with no problems. High end appliances throughout. ample parking for 2 cars. We all really enjoyed our accommodation and stay very much . . highly recommended cottage. It did say there was no ironing board so we took a small one but there was one in cleaning cupboard. overall . . BRILLIANT!

  • "It’s a shame we didn’t have that 3rd kingsize bed set up as listed in advert it caused a few eruptions with my children it was something my smallest was really looking forward to."

    The house could do with some more bowls for serving food in for kitchen and some BBQ tools didn’t feel right using the kitchen tools! The directions to house initially could do with changing the White House on the directions has now been painted green. Some nice knowledge of some walks for the area in the cottage would be useful so may beautiful areas we explored you can walk to the slate quarry. Other then that a beautiful stay I enjoyed the peace and quite. Lovely sized cottage for us.

    Thank you so much for letting us know you had such a great stay and really enjoyed the property. We are sorry the 3rd room was not made up as a super-king-size; this was an error on our website which we have now corrected (thanks to your feedback). We also appreciate your suggestions for more bowls and BBQ tools, we shall make the owner aware for them to consider.

About the location

DELABOLE

Tintagel 3.5 miles; Camelford 3.4 miles; Port Isaac 5.3 miles.

At one time the producer of the world’s best quality building and ornamental slate, this now sleepy village is just 2.5 miles from the high cliffs and dramatic scenery of the north Cornish coastline. Perfectly placed for walking the South West coastal path, exploring the high places of nearby Bodmin Moor, or for lazing on the beach at nearby Trebarwith Strand, it’s a well-placed holiday base. The peaceful harbour village of Port Isaac and the town of Tintagel, with its tourist attractions and King Arthur’s legendary castle, are both a short drive, while the stunning surfing beach at Polzeath is a mere nine miles away. Slaughtersbridge, where King Arthur reputedly fought his last battle, is five minutes away and a drive north along the coast takes in the beautiful cove at Crackington Haven. An area away from the main tourist crowds, but very central to a vast array of places and activities. Delabole Quarry itself is just down the road and is an interesting tourist attraction with stunning views. It is the gateway to great countryside walks.
