My only criticism would be the washing line needs replacing, as when you put clothes on it, it had no tension.
Overall fantastic place to stay and we loved out time here.

"Such a lovely comfortable clean house with everything you need."
So thoughtful to provide milk on arrival and some delicious Cornish scones, also the doggy treats were a lovely gesture, unfortunately my dog couldn’t eat them, but was such a nice thought.
The only advice I would recommend is some WD40 for the back door handle as it got a little stuck a couple of times.
Will definitely be returning again. Thank you for letting us stay.

"Loved our week at The Chace - great location and very comfortable."
We were informed beforehand of the addition of a fridge freezer and that unfortunately the oven had stopped working - these things happen and it just meant we got to try out the nearby Atlantic Bar and Cafe which did good food and cakes! Hope to return sometime.

"The property suited all our needs for a family of 5 plus a dog."
The location close to the beach made day trips to the beach that much easier.
Overall very please with the property.
Note for the owners - there is a roof leak in the porch above mirror. When rains a wet patch appears.
Shower screen seal at the bottom needs attention. It does not stop the water from the shower and it runs down the side of the bath onto the floor and at times onto the landing. Clearly been happening for sometime as the inner door frame closest to both is rotting.
No criticism at all.

"Great house, located a very short walk from the beach, which is very dog friendly in February."
Access to coastal path and mining trails easy. Lots of cafes and a few shops nearby.
House had everything we needed, welcomed with provisions for a cream tea. More than enough equipment in the kitchen to be able to cater for ourselves. Fridge is small with tiny, slightly iced up freezer section, but we managed.
Warm and cosy, especially as weather was so mild, beds are lovely.
Great place to explore south west Cornwall.

"We have booked The Chace on a number of occasion's and have always been satisfied with the quality of the property."
On this occasion not so much, the cleaning was definitely below the standard of previous times we have been. It was very dusty behind the sofas, TV in the lounge and bedroom. The plug sockets and door in lounge was not cleaned. Generally the house smells really damp and was extremely cold when we arrived. Once we cleaned and warmed the house we did enjoy our stay.
In my opinion I think the property could do with updating and a dishwasher and under counter freezer added. The freezer compartment of the fridge is totally inadequate for a stay for six people. Especially when it is all iced up in side. Which it was when we tried to use it.
For the above reasons I am not sure I will return to The Chace next year ☹️

"The Chace was a lovely house in a great location, close to the beach and the SW Coastal path."
Our only issue was that the internet wasn't working when we arrived and Kim, the agent in Portreath wasn't able to help. We managed to figure it out though by plugging the internet into the test socket, which suggests an internal wiring issue in the house.

"The Chace is good."
As a family of 5 we thought we could have used a bigger fridge freezer. Also TV in lounge is small by today’s standards. We were disappointed by the lack of cleaning supplies available to be able to maintain the standard of cleanliness. Hoover bag was full and wet and smelt of dog. Phoned management company but got no response back at all. That was disappointing. For money paid would expect better from them.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the The Chace."
I lived in Portreath and was a mining Prospector, home from home but in a different county at present. I will hopefully come back to The Chace as it felt very welcoming, really lovely, clean and more…
One note I would like to make is the amount of emails from the agency regarding next holiday etc on a similar note, I hadn’t even arrived yet!! Felt rather stressed by them however cannot fault their efficiency. Less emails please.

It is walking distance (just a few minutes) of a beach, a couple of cafes, three pubs and a shop. It is also a good position for exploring Cornwall itself with Newquay only 35 or so minutes away and the same for St Ives.

We have been to the Chace many times as we enjoy the location, We find now that there needs to be a few upgrades, the creaking floorboards upstairs need attention as this is very noisy to the exstent that you dont want to attempt the bathroom through the night as they are that bad it wakes the whole household!"

The decor now needs updating and the furniture all bringing into the 21st century. We love Portreath as it is my families birthplace but we have now decided this will be the last time at the Chace shame as the location is great.

"We were surprised that we were only supplied with one toilet roll for the week."
There is an aerial cable from the roof into the side wall which goes down the side of the gutter pipe. This was quite loose and in the strong wind kept us awake by flapping noisily against the down pipe. A temporary fix was made with sellotape.
Two of the kitchen lights were dead so we replaced these, leaving no spares. We left a note to this effect.
We were surprised that no mention was made of recycling, someone had left a lot of plastic bottles etc in the seagull-proof waste bag but the bin men did not take this. We brought all our recycling home!
We were very comfortable in this spacious holiday home and very pleased at how many facilities Portreath has and all so close to The Chace. Shame that the beach is only dog-friendly after 7pm until 1 October though.
