    "We stayed at Waters Edge and it was a wonderfully relaxed holiday for two weeks."

    The house itself was very comfy and lovely to come back to after a days exploring around Cornwall. Only one problem was the internet wasn’t that good down there… apart from that we would definitely come back again! Loved it!

    "Lovely cottage on the Pendra loweth site."

    Very clean and comfortable. Well stocked kitchen. Lovely amenities and gardens too. Would have liked a non slip mat for the bath when showering but other than that minor point, it was perfect.

    "Lovely house on a lovely peaceful site."

    We stayed here as a couple so we had tons of room. Everything was well equipped there were also board games, dvds and books and lots of other useful bits in the cupboard under the stairs. We didn't get to explore pendra loweth much ourselves as the weather was very wet and we spent most of our time off site. We did eat at the onsite cafe/bar Joyfuel and it was amazing! We went there for tex mex night on sat and also taco Tuesday the food was out of this world. Would have found a welcome pack useful just a site map, reminder of contact number and where to find the wifi code. Apologies if there was one and we just didn't find it. The owner was very friendly when we needed to contact them. Would fully recommend waters edge.

    Very well equipped kitchen. Lovely and warm when we arrived as requested as we had our young grandson with us. Beautiful site, so pretty and well maintained gardens. Perfect for us visiting our son in Penryn.

    "Had a wonderful stay, the place was bright clean and welcoming."

    A few little niggles. The car parking is tights but we managed. The front door doesn't always unlock had to jiggle the key. Need to add details of leaving requirements. Catches needed to secure the barn door to wall when open and to the back doors so you can open up.

    "We had a lovely stay here It was very clean and well equipped."

    Lots of hot water and nice shower with all the fans working. If you scroll down to the bottom of the booking forms there is a map telling you exactly where the property is. Failing that there is a map on www.pendralowethfalmouth.co.uk site. As in nearly all the cottages the oven markings are faded with so much use but there are instructions in the drawer with diagrams showing them. The balcony beside the stream is a lovely addition and the gardens are beautiful. We even caught a badger on our trail camera! Will be back.

    "Generally very good."

    The showerhead fell off several times. The biggest problem we had was finding the house after dark. It would help if the number or name was on the front of the house and so visible from the street, Kitchen was very well equipped. A bath mat for the shower would be useful as would instructions on how to turn the towel rails on. We didn't travel by car. We used Abacus Taxis who were very good and reliable. Bookings were confirmed by text and they notified us when the taxi was on its way. Thr grounds were attractive and very well maintained.

    "The bathroom fan was absolutely disgusting, despite us trying to vaccum it (it needs servicing and cleaning)."

    It meant that whilst showering in the bathroom which has no window, it wasn't very nice with a lack of air and will lead to damp.

    "The Cottage is lovely and the situation it is in is perfect."

    The only 2 things I would say is there are instructions for the oven in the property but the symbols on the oven controls are worn off and I couldn't work out how to use it. The hob worked fine. Also the cold tap in the downstairs did not work. I would certainly stay there again. Sitting in the lounge and listening to the stream rolling by was so relaxing.

    Cold tap in downstairs cloakroom not working and problems with the dishwasher..Landing light repaired very quickly and acknowledgment received of other faults to be rectified. All in all a good stay just a little more detail of checks needed doing

    Thank you for your comments. As you pointed out, the light fitting was repaired within 3 hours of the fault being reported and the other issues were dealt with swiftly too. There is a 'man drawer' in the kitchen which contains spare light bulbs and batteries as these items can go at any time. Property Owner

The property

Waters Edge is a charming property perched on the edge of a stream, within the village of Gardens, a purpose built, privately owned group of properties close to the beach at Maenporth in Falmouth.

Boasting excellent onsite facilities, including tennis courts, children’s play area and an indoor plunge pool, this is a great choice for families.

The open plan living area is a bright and airy space to socialise, either on the sumptuous sofa or at the dining table over a delightful home-cooked meal.

The kitchen comes well-equipped with all you could require during a short stay, including an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge and even a dishwasher and washing machine, so you won’t have to lift a finger when washing up!

As you tire, head to the bedrooms to catch your rest, offering a double and two twins, each neutrally furnished and completed with plenty of storage.

The bathroom is where you can prepare for the day, stepping into the bath and shower over enclosure for a refreshing rinse, or you can also enjoy a relaxing soak following a day of walking.

To the outside is a decked area with furniture, perfect for some alfresco dining on a balmy evening, along with allocated parking for one car.

As with all of the cottages, you are just a short walk from the Splash Pool and Gym.

The Village of Gardens is equidistant between Maenporth and Swanpool beaches.

Everyone loves Swanpool for the cafe, sand and swimming while Maenporth is perhaps a little more relaxed but equally as special; both offer fantastic restaurants and sandy shores so you really are spoilt for choice.

North Helford and Falmouth are perhaps the quintessential Cornish visitor destinations; a mix of beach, creek and woodland serve some of our most interesting and historic villages and towns.

Falmouth itself is home to the National Maritime Museum, visitors will enjoy an amble through the narrow streets and possibly a boat trip across the River Fal or up the Truro River.

Discover Cornwall like never before on a stay at Waters Edge.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
