"Spacious, modern clean property, lovely location."
We had a winter holiday at The Old Coastguards. We were quite cold in the house despite two small oil fired radiators in the lounge area. As previously said by other holiday makers the duvet in the main bedroom is thin. The bath plug did not fit, therefore unable to use the bath (to warm up.)
Not a comfortable house for a winter break. No access to turn the temperature up. We returned home a few days early.
We are very sorry to hear you were cold, so we have put an extra fan heater in the house. We have bought some more 13.5 tog duvets. It is a great shame you did not contact the local Sykes office, John Bray Cornish Holidays as they have a full time maintenance team and would have immediately seen to the bath issue for you. We have been to investigate and it was merely the 'o' ring that had slipping on the bath plug, it needed pushing back in place, a very simple fix.

"The house is lovely with a fantastic view over the coast however, the garden is not dog proof for anything other than the most smallest of animals."
Our dog is medium sized but with wild rabbits living nearby had to be tethered to stop her getting out. Also, the house isn’t small child proof either with no barriers at the top of the stairs. We had our 16 month old grandson with us and had to constantly watch him as the upper floor has the main areas. This became quite a challenge in the end with us erecting makeshift barriers to keep him away from the stairs. Finally the sofa cushion seats move away from the backs making them not as comfortable as we would have liked. The circular garden chair feature was lovely and we spent most evenings out there but it does make the kitchen a bit of a hike to fetch anything you may need.

"The accommodation and the quality of the building itself and the bathrooms, beds, fittings etc was outstanding and we greatly enjoyed our stay."
Our only gripe was having no control over the heating, whilst we were not cold we were also not warm and when returning from a cold (ish) windy walk it was not possible to warm up or dry clothes. The fan heater was used but is noisy. We would definitely miss outdoor furniture and loungers in summer, the concrete structure is a bit pointless.

"It would have been a 5 star rating."
The house is amazing, great position just WOW. BUT! It was cold, very cold. The thermostats had been locked. We arrived Thursday, but no one to help over the weekend. Eventually got some heaters. It’s a shame as the main lounge was difficult to use. Other that that best house we have ever stayed in.
We are sorry you thought the house was “very cold”. You haven’t been the only ones to say you felt cold in the house.
The house heating is set to heat the property to 21 degrees all the time, 24 hours a day.
If the weather is extremely cold outside (lower than 0 degrees, which is rare for Cornwall but does happen) then an air source heat pump, which is how the house is heated, can struggle to maintain 21 degrees, all the time. But it does maintain, in those extreme circumstances, 19-20 degrees. The house is a new build “A” rated energy house. These newer homes do work differently to oil and gas heating systems that we are historically used to.
Blankets have always been provided for the sitting room and the bedrooms for those that feel the cold more than others.

The inside was very luxurious, the property was in a lovely location and it was a nice walk down into the village. The parking was also good. The only negatives would be that the TV was a bit small and it wasn't a smart TV so you couldn't get access to Netflix etc, which would have been nice on rainy days.

"Stunning immaculate clean airy and comfortable house."
The accommodation was beyond perfect for us. High speck all the way. We enjoyed our time in Port Issac but especially enjoyed Padstow and surrounding beaches. The only suggestion we would make is to provide clear directions with an illustration of where to turn into to reach the house. The shop we were advised to look out for was obscured by a coach parked up so it took us a while to find the house. Also for fellow dog owners there is a gap at the side of the back garden for dogs to escape. So we ensured that the gap was covered. Wonderful house and fabulous memories made to take home with us.

"The property has spectacular views and the location really was a short walk to the harbour, which we did often."
We had a lovely week there. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was that the windows were filthy,. You can’t turn down the heating so we had to have all the windows open, not the downstairs bathroom window as that doesn’t open. I assume the building site scaffolding next door prevents it opening. Extraction fans don’t work in any of the bathrooms which meant the steam from the shower set the alarm off a good few times. The back gate is broken. I did try to call the property maintenance people 7 times but the phone signal is quite poor and I kept getting cut off. I am sure these are small repairs that will make a difference.
This is the first rental I have stayed at that didn’t provide a welcome starter pack. You literally have to start from scratch. There wasn’t even salt and pepper in mills. Washing up liquid and surface cleaner is provided but you will only have 1” of each as this seems to be measured out.
Check in is 4:30 and we arrived 40 mins early. We were hoping to just dump the cars and go for a wonder until we could gain access. The lady that was outside the property seems quite cross that we were there early, even though she said it was actually ready? I don’t understand why the check in and check out haven’t gone back to pre covid normality?
Thank you for taking the time to let us know that you had such a lovely week at the property and enjoyed the views and location so much. We appreciate you highlighting some issues which you feel could be improved on - these have been shared with the owners.

"We have just returned from our stay."
The villa is beautiful. The pictures dont do it enough justice. It’s spacious and bright with fabulous views. One of our party mentioned that she was cold in the lower bedroom. I have seen other reviews mentioning the same. Although the house was consistently heated to 20C or more which my husband and i felt was more than generous. In fact i was way too hot in the night. So perhaps having a thicker duvet in the downstairs bedroom would be an inexpensive solution to keep guests on that bedroom warm. A couple of further suggestions that would make our stay even more special - more teaspoons and more bigger mugs as well as more basic kitchen utensils and perhaps some smaller bowls. One frying pan wasnt working on the induction hob. And there are no small frying pans either. It's also fairly common to have a welcome basket on arrival with milk butter bread etc and for the cupboards to be stocked with the bare essentials such as salt pepper oil etc (the pepper mill and salt shaker were empty). Also there is no sign from the road to find the house (or see it) and sykes didn’t provide any detailed directions which would have been helpful. We were also given incorrect code to get the keys and incorrect wifi code which meant we couldnt ring sykes when we found out (no signal to use data). That was pretty stressful but nothing to do with the property itself. Later check out would be better for a property of this size. 9am is way too early if you’re expected to strip beds and generally leave the house tidy. But these are just small observations not detracting from our overall stay. We would definitely recommend the place to others.
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback from your stay. We are pleased to hear you found the villa to be beautiful, spacious and bright.

Ideal location. 5 minute walk to the center of port Isaac, 5 minute walk to the local shop. Fab local pub, there’s also a delicious fishmongers and restaurants. The views are incredible especially if it’s a rainy day and you don’t want to go out. We watched the dolphins and seals almost every day. You do need to bring things like washing/dishwasher tablets, get toilet roll, foil cling film and tea towels, but everything else is provided and the shop is very close and well stocked. The beds are really comfortable, the lower bedroom can get a bit chilly and central heating is locked on a specific temperature so bring hot water bottles if you get cold at night. The tv is small (like said in other reviews) but you really don’t go there to watch television. Truly amazing property and we will be booking again.

The build has been completed to a really high standard and the view and surrounding area are fab.

Thank you very much for your feedback on your stay at The Old Coastguard Lookout. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay and everything the property has to offer! We apologise for the issue you had with the drain in the bottom bathroom, we will be sure to look into it right away. We hope we can welcome you back again in the future!

"Lovely, well resourced property, beautiful location, stunning views, we would definitely visit again."
Thank you for your kind words. It's great to hear that you had a great time at The Old Coastguard Lookout. and a perfect base to explore the north Cornwall coastline.
We are sorry there was a niggle. House keeping leave 1 - 2 bin bags to start your stay, but it is a self catering holiday, so we don't provide a roll of bin liners for the whole of your stay.
We have also spoken to housekeeping about the freezer, and maintenance for the thermostats. Thank you for bringing these issues to our attention.We hope to welcome you back to north Cornwall in the future.
