“Great pet friendly accommodation - repeat visitors”

It ’s really difficult to find high quality, modern accommodation when you’ve got a four legged friend but Kittiwake fits the bill. It’s a five minute walk to the beach and a pub, and only ten minutes walk into Crantock where there are a couple more pubs and a shop.
The accommodation itself is modern and well equipped (as you can see from the internal pictures) with everything you’d need should you want to self-cater. It’s hardly the ‘car garage’ as described in the previous review, and you can certainly see the sea from the living area while seated (although it’s sometimes a little obscured from the garden if the hedge has grown a bit high, but you know, living plants grow!).
Kittiwake is one of three properties which form part of Seaspray cottages (great if you’re a big group but want separate accommodation - the other two are also let by Sykes but with different owners) and the end of one of the gardens runs side by side with Kittiwakes patio area starts, but it’s hardly an intrusion. We choose Kittiwake because it’s the furthest away from the others and isn’t really overlooked, and has its own garden.
There are building works going on, and have been for the last three years, which we were warned about with every booking, but we have never had any problems with anything from the site (and the big construction work is all but finished now). We’ve also never had any problems with noise from the other properties, but maybe we’re heavy sleepers!?!
A change of linen and towels is also offered if you’re there longer than a week, which is a nice touch and isn’t offered by lots of places.
We like it a lot, and would certainly recommend to our family and friends (but only as long as they don’t book when we want to go!).
