"Having decided to treat the in-laws to a few nights away on the beautiful Cornish coast alongside our 8 month old, Tranquility offered everything we could have hoped for and more to have the best off season break!"
Ideally situated a few minutes drive from Falmouth we made the most of exploring local historic locations in the castles, the maritime museum (added bonus that Pirates was the current exhibition!), and took full advantage of the superb food options Falmouth offers. We even managed a short trip to St Austell and the Lost Gardens of Heligan during our mini break.
The accommodation was spotless, very comfortable, lots of extras such as reading material and board games, and we loved the touch of local scones and condiments awaiting us on arrival - very thoughtful! Overall we loved our stay and would happily return in the future and recommend friend and families to the property.

Our stay at Tranquility was excellent everything you needed it was one of the best cottages I have stayed in and having our own private garden was the cherry on the cake
As far as the park and gardens first class
My only negatives there was no proper signed re the bridle paths and to get a bus we had to take a long walk at least 40 minutes and we were led to believe there was a bus stop right outside the entrance
We are sorry you didn’t find both the short cut path to the bus stop .
The beach walk is off the bridle path behind Tranquility.In The information pack, we provided a map to show the route . If only you had called us . Thank you for your response . Happy to hear tranquility was an enjoyable base for your vacation . .

"Nice cottage."
Liked that the patio was private, helps when you have a dog.
I did feel the cottage was a bit dark with all the grey paint.
The cottage and patio did seem a bit cluttered.
The shower needs looking at as takes ages to get hot then literally burns you.
Did like the grab handle in the bathroom
We are sorry you disliked the tranquil vibe of Tranquility. Surprised you found the hot water supply slow . There is displayed a temperature control panel . If you had called us , we could have solved the problem . . Noted the water is hot and have reduced the temperature.

"Lovely property in a great location, *Tranquility* is tranquil."
Well equipped & a comfortable stay with everything you think you need plus the bonus of an air fryer. The Joyfuel Cafe Bar & Shop on site is highly recommended, friendly staff & great service. The location of Maen Valley Park is perfect, with extremely well kept gardens & we were amused by the many robotic lawnmowers. We had an enjoyable weeks stay, with plenty of lovely walks straight from the property. We visited (walked to) Swanpool, Gyllyngvase & Maenporth beaches & Falmouth. Further afield visits to Porthleven, Pendennis Point & Castle, St. Ives, Helford Passage, The Lizard & one final visit back to Falmouth. A final thank you to Denise for the friendly welcome & the Cornish Cream Tea, which was lovely. It was also nice to know she was a phone call away should we need anything. We will definitely be recommending this property & location to family & friends.
It was lovely meeting you . Thank you for such a wonderful review . Always makes us happier when we hear you’ve experienced a great vacation .

"Tranqulty house was lovely, and made a great base for the holiday, unfortunately the site facilities were very lacking."
We were out most days but usually got home around 8-9 and thought it would be nice to end the day up at the bar to play pool , and have a drink on the terrace. And maybe meet other people on the site. On the Tuesday we decided to have a day at the site and use tranquility garden to relax.
The bar reception was not open until the evening despite advertising everywhere shop open , bar take away breakfast etc.
Jacuzzi and sauna was not open, being fitted that week , we found out u can use the splash pool by a code, we were told bar was franchised out , we were told it hadn't opened Sunday night as staff had covid so no one to run it.
*We ordered take away on that Tuesday and when asked for salt sachet to go on chips, we were told they didn't have any, but we could buy a bottle off salt instead from the shop.!
We had salt bk at the house but that seemed an insult.
*It advertised quiz nights , when we enquired the bar manager said we don't do them as no one shows up? Again why advertise it then. ?
*We enquired about breakfast, bar man told us the chef had quit the week before so no breakfast.
Again tk the advert away!!
I would tk tranquility house and place on another site I would, surrounding area and local info provided by tranquility owners was great, such a shame that to end the day , u had the bk garden or a very lack lustre bar with no atmosphere , infact we felt by just going in to get a drink we were causing inconvenience....
We booked the holiday not just for the cottage but the facilities it mentioned on site. ...!
Thank you for taking the time to complete your feedback following you recent visit to Tranquility. We are pleased you enjoyed the property but are sorry to hear the issues you encountered with the on site facilities. Unfortunately the site facilities are not something that we are involved with, however we have spoken to the owner regarding the points you raise and she has escalated your comments to the site management who have taken this very seriously.

The cottage is in great condition, the surroundings are fantastic and only 10min away from Falmouth town centre or the shops. The internet connection is fast and reliable. TV is very decent with plenty of DVDs if the weather is not good enough for a day out. I would thoroughly recommend it.
The only minor suggestion is to provide more quantity of basic items such as toiletries and kitchen items (salt, cooking oil, coffee, etc). Overall it's easy to replenish by the holidaymakers themselves as the shops are so convenient to get to.

"The property was great!"
We stayed during the festive period and would say that it was made lovely and cosy for us as a special treat!!! We were even given prosecco and scones on arrival, which was unexpected. We had other friends staying in pendra loweth and our property was by far the most looked after and homely. The only few things to say are, we were only given 2 loo rolls for a 3 night stay and the twin room is extremely small. One twin bed also did not have bedding, which felt a bit odd and not very cosy. But other than that fantastic place to stay! Would definetly recommend for 2, but some may think 4 adults may be pushing it! I will hopefully be staying again!
Thank you for your feedback. A telephone number was left in case you needed to advise of any issues, had you contacted the owners during your stay, they would have been happy to assist. A full supply of toilet rolls is not usually included in self-catering properties. We're glad to hear of your positive comments about Tranquility and hope you enjoyed your stay. - The Cornish Cottage Holidays Team

"Such a gorgeous cottage!"
We stayed for 2 weeks with 2 young kids. Easy to get in with the key code. Had everything you might need in the kitchen. Decor was lovely throughout. Very clean, lots of spare cleaning things if needed. Outdoor space great and felt private, with lots of space for kids to run around next to the cottage and then up at the playground. We ate a few times at the restaurant and had take out too, decent range and price.
It's such a good location too, 5mins drive to Swan Pool beach or Maenporth, 10 mins into the centre of Falmouth, or up to Helford Passage for water activities. When we were there the pool wasn't open, looked small and deep so probably wouldn't have used it with young kids anyway.
Owner was lovely, gave good suggestions of activities, and helped out without any hassle when we needed a bed sheet change. Other owners staying on site were really friendly, helping us out when our car battery ran flat!
And the cornish cream tea waiting for us on arrival was wonderful!
