"The Retreat was lovely and the kitchen very well equipped with plenty of storage space and crockery etc."
An airfryer would make a welcome addition to the variety of cooking appliances if anything was to be added. The seating was comfortable and various and the outdoor seating a great suntrap although the traffic noise was a surprise. The wash basin was slow to drain and the shower a little under power but Cornwall tends to have water issues and no doubt the private system affected this. Overall an excellent stay, a good base to explore the area and the hosts were friendly and helpful.
Hi Deborah
Thank you for the review - it is very much appreciated. We are glad you enjoyed your stay at The Old Vicarage Retreat and your visit to Cornwall.
Just to clarify, we are on a private water system and our water supply isn't always the most powerful, however the shower is a standard electric shower and works as you would expect.
I'm suprised you had an issue with road noise, as we are in a small village with minimal traffic. We do occasionally get the odd car or motorbike that is louder than normal and the odd tractor, but it has never been an issue.

"Good retreat in a peaceful setting."
Bags of room for two and well equipped. The bedding was a disappointment as not of the standard expected. Crisp cotton sheets and duvet cover would have gained 5 stars. No contact at all with the owners which seemed a bit unfriendly.
Hi Valerie
Thank you for the review - it is very much appreciated. We are glad you enjoyed your stay at The Old Vicarage Retreat and your visit to Cornwall.
Apologies if the bedding was not to your liking. We do use quality bedding and in all honesty, this is the first time in 3 years that anyone has commented negatively.
We do normally speak with all guests at some point during their stay, not least to ensure everthing is OK. Normally we try and catch guests when leaving or returning to the property, but we kept missing you. Also we do not like to unnecessarily disturb guests when they are inside the property, so as not to intrude. To say we seemed a bit unfriendly is rather unfair. We live next door, so equally there was nothing to stop you coming to say hello as other guests have!
As a side note, the property is supposed to be left as you found it (clean & tidy). It was dissapointing for us to find the property rather unclean after you departed. Whilst we don't expect it to be spotless, we also don't expect to find the kitchen bin left full of rubbish and food waste, the cooker hob covered in grease and detruius all over the floors.

Apologies for the missing tea bags.

Very quiet, with a beautiful garden. The only thing I could say is that it is rural, a lot of narrow single drive lanes with few passing places for approx. five miles before you reach a main road, so remember to steer clear of school times and busy times. Other than that it’s amazing.

"Directions to the venue and information provided were really good."
The kitchen was excellent with every piece of equipment you could need and all seemed new. However there were problems with drainage in the bathroom sink and the water pressure in shower was very poor. Some additional heating in the large kitchen living room would have been good as the evenings were very cool.
Thank you for your review of our holiday retreat. We are glad that you found the property well equipped, however you appear to have experienced some issues during your holiday, which is a shame, but we shall try to address them... The bathroom sink drainage issue was a minor blockage, caused by what appeared to be a concentrated toiletry product that had congealed in the sink plug hole. The same product was also in the shower tray waste and on the used bathroom towels. We have tested the shower, which does seem to be working normally for a standard electric shower, but we will continue to monitor it just in case. The kitchen/living area has 3 centrally heated radiators and a thermostat control in the kitchen area to adjust room temperature, with operating instructions in the welcome book. We don’t know if you adjusted the thermostat control to suit your needs, but perhaps this was the issue. Unfortunately, we were not aware of these issues during your stay, so we were not able to help or resolve them whilst you were here. Incidentally, we did briefly speak to you on day 3 of your holiday (to check everything was ok) and all was well.

"The accommodation is very nice."
It’s clean and tidy and had all the facilities that we needed. The owners were not particularly helpful or friendly but this did not affect our stay.
