Quarry Cottage

A lovely welcoming property in a beautiful village location.

Quarry cottage is a lovely and in such a pretty location.

We enjoyed talking ferry trips into Falmouth. We had everything we needed during our stay and the hosts were easy to contact & quick to respond to us when we had a question. Thank you.

Peaceful and quiet everything you need to cook at home but the local pub food is outstanding and less than 5 mins walk.

There is a good well stocked local shop. Bed and sofas comfy I slept so well. I'll be booking again

We had an amazing stay at the cottage it had everything we required for a perfect holiday .

The beds were comfortable, the downstairs was lovely comfy setee and the kitchen had everything we needed . The cottage gave us a good base to see lots of Cornwall. Flushing itself was a nice little town with good pubs which did amazing food especially the Royal standard there food was amazing. We will definitely be back. The owners were helpful and answered and queries we had . Thank you Laura , Rob Lily and Kacey

We have had a lovely week in Quarry Cottage.

The cottage was clean and tidy. It's in a great location in Flushing, just 2 minutes walk to the harbour, 2 pubs , The Royal Standard was always busy, it serves very good food, and one of the best stocked village shops I have seen.The description of the cottage says 'no frills' and some of the furnishings are dated, but the sofas were very comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed and the bathroom is modern, with a very good shower. A special thanks to Lucy who looks after the cottage, she went in especially to log out of my accounts on the TV as I had forgotten to do it, even though she wasn't due to go in that day.

A nice cottage, well equipped and generally nice and clean.

Flushing is a peaceful location and the cottage is in a quiet street. We were able to park nearby in the street every day. The village shop provides for basic needs and there are 2 pubs close by that serve food.

Yet another wonderful break, wouldn't dream of staying anywhere else.

Some nice up grades since last yeah, lovely new oven, the Garden is stunning and the new bathroom is something else. Home from home, clean, cozy, perfect.

The cottage was a pleasant place, however the bed linen had a horrible musty smell, the mattress in the main bedroom was not comfortable and the single room had the most horrendously squeaky bed.

Didn’t enjoy the stay at all because of this, the house wasn’t clean upon arrival. Would not stay again.

We had a fantastic week at the cottage.

It was well equipped, extremely clean and very comfortable. The cottage was well managed by Lucy who was communicative and very helpful, The local area is served by a brilliant pub- The Royal Standard, and a superb local shop, which has everything. We will be booking again, this place is an absolute gem. Thank you Lucy, we had a superb holiday- The Owens.

Great little cottage in a very pretty cornish village ideal for exploring Cornwall.

Lands end and the eden project approx 1 hour drive only. I would definitely be happy to use quarry cottage again. Brilliant holiday. Thankyou.

Everything as expected, very nice place to stay!

Good information about things to do - the environment.

Cosy cottage, well equipped, good location, Quarry Cottage is situated in the nice friendly village Flushing.

For us it was a good bases to discover south Cornwall. But also Flushing itself, with a nice pub, good restaurant and shop for some basics has its charms. We would certainly like to come back.

Just that I couldn’t fault it and would like to come again

We have stayed here several times but feel that the quality has dropped.

Dirty oven, hand towels with bleach marks, chipped plates and cups. Mould stains in bathroom. Non matching bedding. It's a big shame as the cottage has always been lovely, but we do not feel it is value for money.

Quarry cottage is in a great location, there’s plenty of room and offers good information for the area.

Things to consider for future guests- the house itself is very worn- ie paper peeling, bath rusty etc and most of the crockery: glassware is chipped. It would also have been nice to have a mattress protector and clean pillows, some of ours were pretty tatty, and some pressed bed linen. The kitchen is great and well stocked and a good hot shower! The place itself is a great base to explore Flushing, Falmouth and surrounding areas.

We had a lovely stay in quarry cottage.

It’s fairly basic accommodation but in a nice spot and comfortable beds. Good selection of crockery etc in the kitchen. The local pub was very nice - friendly for families and good food. The ferry to Falmouth was fun, but £20 return for family of 4 made it pricey. A few suggestions: We didn’t read through the guest book until the last night and realised there were lots of recommendations in there for places to visit - it would be great if they could be included in the welcome pack instead. There was a DVD player and lots of dvds which we were looking forward to using but no lead to connect it to the tv. The smart tv upstairs didn’t seem to work properly - perhaps the internet didn’t reach. Please provide soap to wash hands - only a tiny amount of handwash provided which ran out after a few days.

By far the best equipped cottage we have stayed in which added enormously to our enjoyment.

The cleaning was a little hit and miss i.e. top shelf in the kitchen area had significant cobwebs but overall no major issues. Lots of info provided to aid our discovery of the local area and the amenities offered. The village itself is lovely but larking can be difficult. It is a shame that pets are no longer allowed as we would have visited again

We had a wonderful stay at Quarry cottage, such a lovely cottage and the village was quaint and full of friendly folk.

There was a fair bit of hustle and bustle for such a small place, we liked the feeling of knowing people were going about their day. The view from the harbour over to Falmouth was gorgeous and we loved getting the ferry over to visit. Plenty of places that serve vegan food if you're looking for that. Only issues were a couple of broken items, dvd player, hoover and electric fan heater, but other than that the cottage was well supplied and very comfortable. We will definitely be staying again.

Although we enjoyed our time away we were disappointed with the accommodation, didn’t feel it was up to the standard we have come accustom too from Sykes, although we appreciate the accommodation in the village where we stayed are relevantly small it could do with some updating and tlc .

The actual village made up for our disappointment with the cottage.

If only you could have sorted out the weather!

! Otherwise perfect as usual!!

For the duration of our holiday the weather was very cold, frost most nights.

The heating was inadequate, the storage heaters switched on at 23.00 and off at 08.00, throughout the day and evening they were cold. The only heating available during waking hours were two fan heaters, both of which were noisy. The owner was contacted, but no improvement was suggested. The lounge and kitchen were comfortable and well equipped, but the rest of the property is tired and in need of renovation. The property is well located within Flushing and we had an enjoyable holiday only marred by the ineffective heating.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Quarry cottage as we usually do.

Appropriate action had been taken to safeguard us and we had a great two weeks, thanks. Found several new places to visit in Cornwall, and enjoyed some old favourites.

The cleaning at the cottage was not very good especially around the log fire.

Burner thick dust around settees and under. Garden needed attention front door lock very hard to open with the key just one yale lock apart from that good location and we had a good holiday. Oh yeah the kettle broke but was replished with a new one very quick

Beautiful setting and fantastic place to be.

This was a lovely Christmas for myself my wife, our son and our little doggy. Peaceful and quiet.

Comfortable, clean and welcoming cottage in a peaceful and historic village.

The Seven Stars pub round the corner is a great spot to sit outside in the evening sunshine. There’s a handy village shop and the Falmouth passenger ferry which runs every half an hour is a fun way to reach all the amenities of the town. I would particularly recommend the lovely coast path walk around to Café Mylor which overlooks Mylor harbour.

not the cleanest of properties on arrival, bathroom not clean and previous guests towels behind the door.

bathroom requires an update and extractor fan - signs of damp. flushing is a lovely quiet location, friendly locals and good pubs. ideal place to explore local and further afield areas.

We did not have WiFi the entire time we were there.

The owner tried to rectify the situation without success. He did offer us a small reimbursement for the inconvenience. It is difficult to plan a vacation without the internet to book activities. The WiFi problem seems to have happened before so not an isolated problem. The home is lovely and nicely situated. Would definitely book again if WiFi is corrected.

The quirkiness added so much charm to the cottage.

Surprisingly a lot larger than it looks from the outside. The homely touches (dog treats, dog blanket, cleaning products, Cornish biscuits, tea, coffee and fresh milk in the fridge) were a lovely added bonus. Good sized towels were also appreciated, a big bug bare of ours is these titchy towels you often get in hotels! Two great pubs in the village serving good food. Cornwall is very dog friendly. Falmouth and St Ives are must see visits.

We had a lovely time cornwall is beatiful and flushing and falmouth were great ideally situated from seeing all over cornwall only downside was parking there was none.

we will be back again thank you mary

The cottage is perfectly located for ease of access to surroundings.

The arms on the sofa are very hard on the edges and both of my sons banged their heads on them on separate occasions. The parking is terrible for all, on many an occasion we had to park at the top of a very big hill and walk back down to the cottage. Overall the cottage is lovely and is very clean and well equipped.

We had a superb holiday, and a huge factor of it being fabulous was our lovely little cottage.

So charming. Flushing itself is also a beautiful place to stay. Would highly recommend Quarry cottage.

We were so pleased to find a property 1) back with helpful holidays and that had not been taken over by some of the overpriced agencies that seem to think every one needs a 5star property that you don’t feel comfortable in.

2) at a great price and excellent value for money. 3) A home from home that was fantastically kitted out, comfortable, spotless and beautiful I have spent my whole life coming to Flushing with my family and could not have asked more of what we received; Dee was a wonderful and so welcoming on our arrival, Helpful Holidays service is second to none. Well done and thank you so much for making our holiday so wonderful.
