• "Lovely cottage - everything we needed."

  Really appreciated the welcome touches left for us on arrival especially the beautiful flowers and wine. Great place to base yourself to discover Cornwall.

• "We had a good time at Nectan, the property is in a great location for us and the dogs, they had a great time in the garden as well as the walks."

  The owners are extremely thoughtful and are very friendly, when we saw them they asked if we were OK, and had everything we needed, which we did. The only negative, both of the beds we found uncomfortable so we didn't get a great night's sleep, (maybe the mattresses need renewing, or are new). It is extremely cosy of an evening, now that the nights are drawing in, we would have loved to have used the log burner, but (unfortunately) it was still too warm to use it. Lots of crockery and cutlery with plenty of choice of utensils and pans. There were cobwebs around the lights and windows, so maybe the cleaning team need to be more aware of this, when turning the property round for the next set of holiday makers. Otherwise, the property was clean and sufficient for our needs. I would certainly recommend Nectan.

• "Had a wonderful fortnight staying at Nectan."

  The property is well placed and a short 5 minute walk down the hill to the harbour. The hill is not at all bad back up unless you are very unfit or have limited mobility. The garden is a lovely private area of patio, lawn and flowers/shrubs. There were just two of us staying, with our two dogs and had adequate space however, personally I think 4 people sharing would be somewhat cramped. The kitchen is small but workable area, I don’t know if it was just me, but every time I used the toaster it set the smoke detector off!! I do like to sit at a table to eat, and whilst there is a folding table indoors, it would take over the lounge space if it were to be fully opened. The bed was very comfortable and huge. Only used the upstairs bedroom for sleeping, but used the downstairs shower as much more powerful than the upstairs en-suite. There is adequate parking on the driveway to the cottage, shared with the hosts, Robin and Rosie , and although next door to them, only saw them twice, once to ask whether we would like the cleaning lady to come in and change bedding for week 2, and once when we were returning home from a day coastal walking and they were tending to the flowers, both are lovely people. The welcome pack left for us was gratefully received. Would recommend certainly to couples, and would return to Nectan if basing at Mevagissey any time

• "We had a lovely stay at Nectan."

  Comfortable and everything we needed. The owners Robin and Rosie live next door. They were friendly and gave us some good tips about things to do. I walked into Mevagissey every morning to get newspapers. Just had to buy a coffee and cinnamon bun which I enjoyed sitting on the harbour. The walk back up the hill is a challenge. Loved Megavissey and our stay at Nectan.

• "What a great find!"

  Everything you need, quiet, clean, comfortable and warm! Great garden for Ralph (the dog). Set up the hill above the most beautiful quaint harbour. Daily walk down the hill (it’s quite a hill!) for a coffee to sit and enjoy the view. We met the owner/s just once to make sure all is ok and then left alone to enjoy our week. Would not hesitate to recommend this property and area. The most lovely week.

• "Lovely week's stay in a very wet and windy November!"

  Comfortable warm house, home from home atmosphere with extras like games, jigsaws, board games, books, DVDs. Kitchen very well equipped. Welcome pack of milk, bread, butter, beans etc was a lovely surprise. Great south facing patio overlooking fields. Robin and Rosey really welcoming and helpful. Hill down to the village centre really steep and would be too challenging for those with mobility issues. Recommend driving round the back lanes rather than the single track road down (unless you like reversing up round a steep bend!). Very dog friendly pubs. Highly recommended.

  The owners were very friendly and they gave us good places to visit in the area. Bedding was a good quality and the towels were perfect, they were big enough to fit around the average human and some spare!! The walk to the harbour and back is on a very steep hill so please be aware of this as this could hinder your enjoyment if your mobility is impaired. All in all a fabulous holiday from the booking process to checking out.

• "Perfect little getaway with adequate facilities."

  Tv remote didnt work very well though and I found the bed a touch too hard but these are small things that didnt affect the holiday. Great shower very powerful. Nice little welcome pack from the owner who was very helpful and friendly. I would warn anyone who struggles a bit with fitness to be wary of tregony Hill where the house is. Its incredibly steep from the town centre to the house. Walking is best though avoid driving in the town as the streets are tiny and there is nowhere to go if you meet another car. We used the other end of the road which are tiny back roads but found those better and less dangerous than the town with its tiny streets and vast amounts of tourists. Overall a lovely place but tricky for cars.

• "We had a great week at this property."

  Our stay coincided with Feast Week which was great seeing locals having fun. The only downside is the walk up the hill which is difficult for anyone with dodgy knees or backs. We found it easier to drive the long way down to the village car park, walk to the harbour and shops and then drive back! Definitely take the longer route to the property as the village streets are difficult to navigate. This is a lovely place for exploring and so dog friendly. The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owners are very friendly and left a lovely welcome gift.

• "We had a lovely stay at Nectan."

  The owners were welcoming, and helpful when asked anything. Though they are living next door, it didn't feel intrusive or awkward. The accommodation had everything we needed for the two week stay. Our only problem, and it is a minor detail, we struggled to reach anything in the wall cupboards as they are placed unusually high on the wall. I am not of short stature, and I could barely reach, because of this we were limited with storage options for our food. Could have done with a step stool. Overall it was a very pleasant stay. The garden was great for our two small dogs. We were blessed with fantastic weather. Mevagissey didn't disappoint on any level. Virtually everywhere is dog friendly, and there were lots of the furry beasts wherever you ventured.

• "The cottage is beautiful, cosy, clean, well equipped kitchen, spacious- we stayed with our two greyhounds and never felt cramped."

  View of the sea from the side and countryside at the back is lovely. Location is great, just a short walk down the hill to mevagissey, walk back up is a bit of workout! But it’s so quiet and peaceful. Owners were really helpful, on hand if you need anything but not intrusive. The only fault really, and it’s not a massive issue is that if you have bigger dogs like we do, the garden isn’t as enclosed as the photo shows at this time of year. I’m sure it’s fine when all the plants have grown. The side gate is a normal small gate and the wall at the back of the garden is 2-3ft high and runs across the back of 2-3 properties so we had to keep dogs on leads in the garden in case they saw something and hopped over to chase, as the weather wasn’t great it wasn’t a massive inconvenience, but it could have been if they weather had have been better and we wanted to spend more time out there. other than that, a lovely cottage!

  Fridge was a bar size one, not full size Fridge/Freezer as shown in the listing. The interior is well appointed. From the back garden the sea can only be seen when standing looking over the fence to the side of the cottage. It cannot be seen when sitting on a garden chair on the patio or lawn. We walked several times from the town up to the cottage. Note: it's a 15 min steep uphill. Hope this feedback is helpful.

The location was excellent as only a 5 - 10 minute walk into Mevigessy town centre where there are plenty of shops and a beautiful harbour.

  Spoke to the owner Robin on the phone before we travelled and he emailed me directions to avoided going through the centre of Mevagissey. He also gave me tips on places to visit. This is a really nice apartment / extension with two good sized bedrooms attached to the main owners home. There was suitable parking for two large cars. Both bedrooms had en-suite bathrooms. One bedroom had a large double bed with the upstairs bedroom having a king size bed. Comfortable living area with seating for 4 to 6 adults. Kitchen was fully functional with electric cooker, microwave, toaster, filter coffee maker etc which was fine for our stay. Outside private garden with table and chairs to enjoy the sunny weather. We really enjoyed our stay. There are some very narrow roads around this part of Cornwall I advise those with satnavs to turn off quickest route selection and don’t follow the route without checking the roads are suitable for your car. Some roads are are very narrow just a bit wider the your wing mirrors with few or no passing points. Be prepared to reverse.

  Robin, the owner, was really pleasant and helpful. Mevagissey is a really nice Cornish fishing village with plenty of eateries to suit all tastes and a couple of good pubs. The only downside of getting there from Nectan is the extremely steep hill (I think Robin's 100 yards from the village is more than a little optimistic!!!), however, we managed it on a number of occasions but if you are older or have small children I would suggest you think carefully before booking. That said, if you want somewhere to stay in Cornwall that has a parking space you have a price to pay!! All things considered, it was a lovely holiday home and we had a great stay.
