• "We had a very pleasant stay at Halcyon, me, my husband, 2 girls and a dog."

  Excellent location for Trebarwith Strand (great for bodyboarding for my kids!) and Tintagel Castle. We are English Heritage members, went to the castle more than once - great hike for kids! And went straight down to the beach. Kids loved the caves. We enjoyed exploring the area. The cottage was delightful, we had everything we needed, very clean. We did our best to stay away from tv but having Netflix was an occasional life saver when kids were clingy and we wanted to cook etc. Stable wifi too. I would love to book again in the future.

• "Absolutely lovely stay here at Halcyon."

  Extremely clean and very well maintained, I don't think we found one area in the whole bungalow that was not spotless!! Lovely light, spacious rooms and all the mod cons. Very warm and cosy and the owners very responsive. During the second night of our stay, the radiators were not coming on. I text Lou and within less than a minute the heating was on! He explained the day before, when he popped round to say hello, that the property is also run using solar panels, so maybe that's why the central heating wasn't coming on that particular day. Anyway, for the rest of the stay it remained on and the whole place was comfortably warm. The week we stayed was mostly very mild (if very windy!), so no need for lots of heat, but always nice to warm the place up in the evenings after lots of bracing dog walks. Really lovely enclosed front garden, perfect for my dog who can escape from anywhere! It's totally secure so felt very comfortable letting her have a run around out there without having to constantly watch her. It's in such a great location too, just a few minutes walk and you're in the centre of Tintagel and then lovely walks and things to do all around. If there was just one negative it would be the noise almost every morning from building works going on opposite as well as something being done directly right at the back. This week was going to be full lots of lazy lie ins before heading out, but the drilling and clattering both front and back meant that didn't really happen! Especially as I was using the back bedroom. However, I appreciate building works need to be done (and the works at the front is out of the owners control, as there is a new house being built across the road) and it honestly didn't impact too much on our stay and certainly wouldn't put us off coming back. Maybe just a little note when booking to warn people there might be some noise disruption would be useful. You mention a new shower room is being put in later in the year....the bathroom you have is perfect as is it! But I can see having a shower would be an advantage I suppose. All in all a really great stay. Myself, my mother and my dog had a really lovely week. Can honestly say it's the cleanest and most comfortable Sykes cottage we've stayed in (and we've stayed in quite a few over the years!). Will definitely return, thank you!

  Thank you for your lovely comments. We are sorry our neighbours were carrying out building works, we believe that most of these to the rear of the property are now complete and that the building works to the front of the property will be completed by summer 2023 should you wish to return next year.

• "The location of this property is fantastic!"

  A great base for exploring Tintagel and the local area, and only a 5 minute drive to the beach. The property is really clean, the owners are friendly, and they have clearly thought about some practical details - shelves in the bathroom, plenty of places to hang towels/ clothes, lots of storage - so a big thumbs up for that. The welcome pack is nice addition as well. Everything in the property is decent enough but not new, but I'd say we paid a fair price for it. I think my feedback points would be to add a cheese grater to the reasonably well stocked kitchen, a shoe rack in the porch, and maybe some blackout curtains for the bedrooms. I think the amount of light in the morning and evening (in August) made it a bit more difficult for the kids to sleep. Overall it's a really good place to stay, and we'd be happy to choose it again if we're revisiting the area.

  Thank you for your very helpful feedback. There was a cheese grater but unfortunately we’re not sure what happened to it, we replaced it as soon as we realised it was missing. We are going to fit blinds to the front bedroom windows when we carry out maintenance works during March 2023. We hope to see you again in the near future! Property Owner

  It came with literally everything we might want to feel good, and then some. It was spotlessly clean. It has very good beds. Lots of storage space. It has all modern appliances. Bathrooms and the kitchen look brand new. The living room is cosy and full of character. The whole property is full of air and light and has great view of the sea and old medieval church and the magical Tintagel Castle is literally around the corner. Overall impression is: GREAT.

  The bungalow is beautiful, home from home and great place to relax on holiday. Location of bungalow in Tintagel itself is perfect, as is 2 parking spaces. The sunny garden with the lounger chairs provided was fabulous. We read you plan to change the bathroom later this year to a shower room which we agree would improve the property. Only other feedback from us was regarding the mattress in back bedroom was too soft for our preference, but that’s personal choice. We had great week in Tintagel...helped by brilliant weather
