“Gorgeous cottage in lovely village”

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at this cottage and felt it deserved a review as it is such a great place to stay in Cornwall. The location of the village is close to Mevagissey and the Lost Gardens of Heligan but it feels very local rather than touristy with an excellent local pub a very short stroll away. We even walked to Mevagissey over rolling hills one day. The cottage is beautifully decorated, very comfy with little extras such as vintage looking fans in each bedroom, DAB radio's, bluetooth speakers and even a Nintendo Wi console for the kids. There is a 2nd reception room that is ideal for kids to have their own films on or use the games console. We were really lucky with the weather and the garden is gorgeous place for an evening BBQ.

“The cottage, although in a small isolated village, is centrally located so travelling around Cornwall is easy.”

It’s very clean and well kept, with everything you could want to make your stay extremely comfortable. Plenty of things to keep both adults and children entertained as described in the write up. The garden is lovely and sunny, furniture and some outdoor games available. There is a pub serving delicious food at reasonable prices, with a very friendly atmosphere just a few steps away. The only negative I can think of is that the garage is only big enough for a small car, I have a mini and it just fit, and the parking area is only big enough for 1 car so if you take more than 1 car you might struggle, but saying that all the benefits out way the negative. I would recommend this cottage to both couples and families. Thanks for a fantastic stay, we hope to return next year.

“The holiday cottage slept 6 people yet the fridge wasn't big enough for 2 people.”

The kitchen has no storage / empty cupboards for you to put food in. The second bedroom had no chest of drawers despite their being room for them so my clothes were left on the floor :( The twin bedroom had the tiniest chest of drawers that you could hardly fit any clothes in. The property smelt of damp especially in the bedrooms where you could hang clothes. The property opposite & to the side of the cottage was doing building work the whole time we were there so it felt like we were on a building site. Not worth the money at all very disappointing.

- Mrs Willder, July 2020

Unfortunately we can’t please everybody and we would encourage you to read the many lovely reviews from our guests. The fridge is a standard 61 litre fridge with a separate freezer in the outhouse so more than adequate for 6 people. That said, we have removed this freezer and added a new tall free-standing fridge/freezer in the garage which provides ample storage for fresh/frozen goods. There are 2 clear cupboards in the kitchen and a small integral/pull-out shelving unit for storage of larder goods. The 2 bedrooms referenced have hanging wardrobes with integral shelving for smaller items. There is room for a chest of drawers so we have now added one in to the double bedroom and supplemented the existing chest of drawers in the twin with a second set. Whilst the property had been thoroughly cleaned in readiness for our first guests post lockdown the property could’ve benefited from more airing that can be achieved by leaving the windows on night lock and which we’ve asked house-keeping to double-check when they are at the property. Regarding value for money, these guests paid £230 pp to stay in a beautiful Cornish cottage for 7 nights and we would surmise that this type of holiday proposition is simply not for them.

“Beautiful cottage in great location”

Booked this for half term week and loved our stay in a very well presented cottage in a lovely local village. The house was beautifully decorated and equipped with everything we needed for the stay, there are three bedrooms, two large and one smaller one, although that is still a double. It was good for our children because it has a 2nd living room with TV, DVD and games console so the kids could amuse themselves in the evening whilst the adults had the main room with a lovely wood-burner. There is a great local pub in walking distance with friendly locals and a real fire and you are close to many attractions such as Heligan and Eden. As mentioned by a previous reviewer the drive is small although we were able to park our 4x4 on it and we also used the large garage. We wanted to be near places like Mevagissey without being in the tourist crowds and we like a garden where you can enjoy a BBQ so this turned out to be a great choice. We have already booked for summer this year,

“The cottage had more than we expected.”

It was very cosy and warm. There were no limitation s or rules for us to follow. The key safe worked very well. We had a great time. It was a great place to come home to during a rainy week.

Mrs Leggett July 2019

“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.

- Mrs Leggett, July 2019

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.

“We all enjoyed our stay in Trelan.”

The cottage was lovely and comfortable and very well equipped! The local pub was very good and friendly. Good food. Close to The Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Heligan! And lovely quiet beaches nearby. On the whole a lovely relaxing holiday!

Mrs Faulkner April 2019

“The cottage was comfortable and well equipped and true to photographs as advertised, I do feel that sink drains need to be cleaned and sterilised after each occupancy the kitchen sink was clogged and causing a nasty smell.”

, but after a bottle of bleach and a boiling water it was cleared . The expel-air in the en-suite needed to be cleaned was very dirty, and dust behind the chest of drawers in master bedroom just needs a feather duster down it again after every occupancy. I feel because of these few details I have mentioned it was overpriced.

- Mrs Faulkner, April 2019

Thank you for your feedback, it is very much appreciated. I am pleased to share that we have changed our cleaning supplier as, like you, we were not happy with their standards. Thank you for sharing. Dani, Gary & Evie Grace. Sykes owner relations

“This cottage is fantastic, a real wow when you walk thro the door.”

Set in a lovely little village, the local pub serves delicious meals and is both warm and friendly. Central for most of the attractions in the area. Would definitely return to this cottage and to Cornwall.

“Cosy Cornish Comfort”

Lovely cosy cottage tucked away in the tiny village of St Ewe. Loved being curled up in front of the wood burner when the wind was blowing outside. Traditional village pub no more than 5 mins stroll away if you don’t want to venture too far. Mevagissey itself is a short drive away if you want a little more choice. Contemporarily decorated with everything we needed. Will definitely return.

“Fantastic Cornish Cottage!”

Fab stay in this fantastic cottage, ideally located in a picture postcard Cornish village (which includes a local pub serving traditional pub food) and just minutes away from Mevagissy with its large variety of restaurants and pubs. Ideally situated to explore many of Cornwalls tourist hotspots especially The Lost Gardens of Heligan, Eden and numerous beautiful beaches. The cottage is beautifully decorated with a lovely garden and is equipped with everything you need from a holiday rental. Will definitely be booking a return visit.

“Beautiful well kept and tasteful cottage.”

Definitely hope to return. Couldn't have wished for more with the added bonus of the village pub less than a minutes walk away!

Mrs McGarr August 2017

“Everything we could have wanted was to hand - the only item we missed was having a washing line but we managed.”

The cottage is extremely comfortable and felt great to return to after a lovely day out. Cornish Cottage Holidays were very helpful when we had a problem with the en suite toilet - the problem was sorted the same day.
