Great location within walking distance of pubs, shops and bakery in St Merryn. Close to lots of beaches. House was more spacious than expected. Clean and more than enough crockery, utensils etc. in the kitchen. Enclosed garden, plenty of space to park.

Great place to stay, especially with dogs as several dog friendly beaches nearby. House was spacious and had a well equipped kitchen. It actually had good quality sharp kitchen knives too, which makes a nice change.

Not pet friendly as no grass. I would not recommend this property as it does not warrant the five stars.

Very clean bungalow - little tired outside and no grass for our dog. All the mod cons were appreciated but location could have been better because of school drop off parking.
