Kipper Cottage

Great property -- have stayed there 3X now and always enjoy it.

Easy to book and great location including parking!

Lovely cottage right by the platt.

Ideal.

The cottage was clean and tidy, very modern.

Everything you needed was provided. Very well kept property.

Kipper Cottage was clean and comfortable and situated a few seconds walk from the beach/ platt.

It was nicely furnished and decorated and had everything we could need. We would love to come again. Trying to get hold of John Bray before our stay to clarify a couple of points was difficult but the cottage itself was lovely.

Nice property, well maintained and everything we needed for family of 4

Cant recommend the property enough, it was in a perfect location right in the hub of the town, the only difficulties being no direct parking area at the property.

The parking garage provided was a good walk away from the property and the downside was people often left the doors open and the local birdlife took the chance to move in and deliver a fresh paint job daily over the car! (a small downside overall). Port Issac itself is quaint and we will visit again no doubt, excellent chip shop, the Golden Lion and Mote restaurant were excellent, we didn't get around to trying the Old School house or any of the other eateries, but all looked lovely.

There was seagull nesting on the roof, a lot of screeching noises were made so we were kept awake.

There was a huge light outside and the blinds don't cover the whole of the window, so light always comes through. Couldn't open the windows due to the noise of the seagulls so it was very warm in the cottage. The hot water wasn't sufficiently hot, there was a water tank so if someone had a bath there was no hot water left for any one else. Cleaning product was left on the bottom of the oven, so when the oven was on it started smoking. There was a leak from the ensuite toilet, the grouting line was wet which indicated a leak.

Another fabulous stay in Kipper Cottage and Port Isaac so convenient and comfortable.

Only negative and nothing to do with John Bray or the owners but the previous occupants had cooked fish and we couldn’t get rid of the smell all week, so perhaps a diffuser would help? But that aside we love Kipper Cottage!

Generally excellent cottage.

Very comfy lounge seating and great TV (but needs instructions - took a while to figure out various inputs). Kitchen good but needs a couple more large saucepans (only 1 large, 1 med & 1 small). Needs hanging space for towels in kitchen (for some reason rentals never have this and you end up using cupboard door handles or oven handles). Front smaller bedroom wadrobe drawers falling apart and the room needs shelves or other flat surfaces for personal effects. Cord for blind in bathroom snapped on first day, luckily in closed position. Enjoyed our stay there but it's not for anyone who has any mobility or fitness problems due to very steep access streets & paths. Vehicle access for drop off/leaving very easy, no problems.

'Immaculate and really comfortable.

Perfect'

Absolutely spot on, we loved Kipper Cottage and would defiantly book again

Kipper was beautiful and very comfortable.

We loved the attention to detail -- including the second toilet! -- and the rooms were very comfortable.

Absolutely loved this little cottage

The cottage was amazing and close to the harbour meaning an early morning cuppa and late night drink were an everyday occurance.

There were even garden chairs to take to sit on and net and bucket for the rock pools. The only down side is the car parking which is a long way from the cottage and in a garage with other vehicles who don't always park well meaning getting in and out can be difficult. We found other ways of unloading other than the harbour and a lovely local gentleman helped us as we're a little disabled. Having said all that we'd stay again but pack differently so less carrying. You need to take washing powder/tabs and there are no condiments if any kind. The welcome pack of cream tea was a lovely gesture. Missing the sound of the gulls and the sea already

We have had a fantastic week in Port Isaac, having stayed in many holiday cottages in Port Isaac including top end Boutique Retreats I’d say Kipper Cottage was up there as one of the best!

Excellent location, well equipped, tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. As holiday cottage owners ourselves we know the effort that goes into creating a home from home! A little confusion about the parking as there are two Trelawney garages and we thought the parking was at the new one so paid to park for the week in the New Road car park before realising at the end of the week it was actually the old garage on New Road. Overall we loved Kipper Cottage and would come back in a heartbeat!

Just come back from a week staying at this cottage, what beautiful accommodation it has everything you would need for your stay.

Great location. The carpark was easy to find and didn't find the gates too much of a problem, however I think it would be a bit tight in there if all the spaces were taken, but we found it no problem. You can take your car down to the slip-way and then only a short walk to the cottage to off load, yes it is a bit up hill, but you are in Cornwall!! Overall would highly recommend and we shall be planning a return visit next year.

'We had a great stay at Kipper Cottage.

Location is superb. The local management, John Bray, were excellent. They dealt with the issues requiring immediate attention extremely efficiently'.

First time in Kipper Cottage and we weren't disappointed.

Fantastic Cottage in a superb location, bit of a walk to the garage but who cares. The views and scenery are out of this world, we had a week of peace and tranquility. I would recommend Kipper Cottage to anyone who is looking for a fantastic week in beautiful Cornwall

Cottage is lovely, but I probably wouldn't have booked it if I'd known the parking space was inside a garage with old, heavy doors that had a tendency to come off the runners and get stuck - on one occasion trapping our car inside when we had planned to go out for the day.

Lovely well equipt comfortable cottage situated a short walk from the quay, we have stayed in Port Isaac a few times but Kipper Cottage is by far the best!

The only negatives were the access times, arrival was 4.30pm and vacation 9am. Covid rules are now relaxed surely the times should be adjusted accordingly as prices have increased dramatically and technically the days reduced to six and not seven as before.

The cottage and location are perfect, we really enjoyed it and will book again bt please address the parking: - Parking is really hit and miss.

We could only park in the allocated spot 3 days out of the 7 as others kept taking the space or they parked so far over the bays either side it was impossible to get in. The bay needs clearer signing, new lines and to be honest bay 6 would be better. We were lucky as not that busy but in the summer it's a necessity to have parking. We woudl like to be informed if this has been addressed before we book again.

The cottage was great!

Very thoughtfully decorated and equipped I loved all the Roman blind fabrics Written info very good TV went wrong on us ! We followed instructions and all well until Thursday when it kept saying No signal We are 72 & 82 years old and not very technology savvy Only problem were the heavy and rather worn doors on Trelawney Garage which did not operate very smoothly or easily We would recommend Kipper Cottage to others Janet Grey

A delightful property in a fantastic location.

However after a 6 hr journey it would've been more welcoming to arrive to some kind of welcome pack; tea, coffee, milk etc. Especially when you don't know the local area . It would also be nice if a few condiments were provided- salt, pepper, cooking oil etc.

Another wonderful holiday at Kipper Cottage.

Thank you

We really loved our stay in Kipper Cottage - it was extremely comfortable, clean, well appointed and well presented.

The location was perfect for us, we would definitely stay there again. The parking space is an uphill walk away, but it didn't bother us at all. Highly recommended.
