“This cottage is advertised for 6 people we were a party of 4 adults(2 couples) and 2 teenagers .”
The second double bedroom is too small we had to turn round a bedside cabinet so the door to the room would shut without hitting the cabinet. The other side of the bed the drawer of the bedside cabinet could not be opened due to the radiator . The windowsill was the only place to stand toiletries etc . There was only one chair. So with a small drawer cabinet in the wardrobe there was a lack of storage space.
The fridge in the kitchen was not sufficient to store supplies for 6 people, important as there is no local shop. The worktops are cluttered and thus difficult to prepare food.
As we had nice sunny weather we were disappointed as we were unable to hang out washing to dry . I am aware there was a washer/ dryer but not everything is suitable for that.
Really useful feedback, thank you. We have recently replaced the bedside cabinets in the second bedroom to address the problems you experienced in closing the door and have added baskets, for extra storage space, in the wardrobe. The fridge in the kitchen is a standard size with lots of local options for buying produce during your stay - Lobbs Farm Shop at Heligan offers a butchery, bakery and deli (1 mile), there is a small convenience store in Mevagissey (3 miles) and a variety of supermarkets, some offering home delivery, in St Austell (6 miles). We have chosen not to leave a washing line, instead a new washer/dryer, however have noted your cormment and added a clothes horse which will hopefully help future customers. Thank you again. Dani, Gary & Evie Grace.
