“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 are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at Quarry Cottage, liking Flushing and the area surrounding it. Unfortunately the weather can be unpredictable and cold nights can happen even at the end of April. Quarry Cottage does have the characteristic Cornwall cottage storage heaters which charges up during the night and then releases slowly the heat through the day. As the owners informed you after you contacted them, to help keeping the property warm at night they installed a lovely flame-effect electric wood burner in the lounge and they also provide 2 fan heaters that can be moved anywhere in the property. There are also 2 hot water bottles that will help you snuggle on the couch. The owners took the opportunity to freshly repaint the property at the end of March and they made sure to keep the furniture in perfect state as true to the photos, so guests will always know how the lovely Quarry Cottage presents even before arriving. We hope the sun will rise and warmly shine for your next visit so you will be able to enjoy not only Quarry Cottage but also explore all Cornwall.
