• "Perfect location for walking the south coast tracks, the main reason we were in south Cornwall."

  Very cute home with cool view. Great having dishwashing tabs, dish washing liquid and clothes washing powder supplied, but odd body wash and facecloths were not, and less than 1 roll of toilet paper in each loo supplied.

• "We had a fantastic stay here!"

  The pictures don’t quite do the view justice. The property was as described. There were a few very minor issues (the cold tap in the upstairs bathroom was loose and there was a hole in the floorboards in the upstairs double) but nothing that would put me off staying again. Check in was super easy and we had everything we needed as a home away from home here. The location is prime for sightseeing and Mousehole is a wonderful place! Thank you for your hospitality and thanks to Sarah for sending the bits we left behind.

• "What a lovely spot!"

  The views are breathtaking. Wooton Gray its a great house in the charming village of Mousehole. The house is very comfortable with a scandi feel. We had everything we need for a lovely week. Having a parking space is a big plus in Mousehole and Cornwall in general. Great area for touring around and there's plenty to see. Loved it!

• "The property was exactly as advertised."

  Excellent location and amazing views from the living room. Off road parking a bonus and a nice garden area too. However, some general maintenance issues were apparent. The cold tap in the main bathroom is loose. The corner kitchen base unit door hinge is broken. The freezer compartment in the fridge freezer is dirty. The tap in the downstairs shower room when in use is stiff and difficult to use. One of the lounge chairs collapsed due to loose bolts. This issue was dealt with when the house keeper and owner were contacted. We are highlighting these issues, not as a criticism, but because they have been highlighted before. If attended to, would enhance the property even further.

• "Wow..."

  We couldn't believe how lovely the accommodation was and that view. We loved the art work, garden and the beds have a great nights sleep after a hard day's hiking. One of two little loose bits ( bathroom cold tap and cupboard) but at the end of the rental season we always expect those from wear and tear of holiday use . Will definitely recommend to friends heading in the Household direction and might well be back ourselves in the future.

• "The view from the living room is just amazing- even better than the pictures."

  It is a very comfortable and well equipped house. The location is also fantastic- a short stroll to the bars and cafes in Mousehole, which were all great, and a great base for exploring the area. Being picky- the upstairs bathroom and the garden furniture are a bit tired. Also the drive is tight for a big car and then plants really need cutting back a bit for access. We loved the house though and had a great time.

• "Beautiful views from the sitting rooms overlooking the bay."

  Well equipped and comfortable. Very short walk to Mousehole harbour from the house. We appreciated the parking at the property, as parking in this area is quite difficult.

  Our only criticism was an overgrown garden although a gardener arrived during our stay and went round with a strimmer. Had it been neat and tidy would have given full marks!

  Thank you for your feedback, we are glad to hear you had a lovely stay and that the gardener arrived during your stay. We hope to see you back again soon. Property Owner

  Really clean and comfortable, with a view you could never tire of! Lots of space too, and two bathrooms, which was great! Really comfy beds, sofa... Really warm, and very peaceful! We loved it! Highly recommend. Massive thanks!

• "Will be booking again."

  Lovely house. Sea view means that if you want a lazy day or weather is poor you still have a beautiful space to be in. Easy walk to centre/ harbour. Parking space is a luxury in Mousehole and not a difficult park at all and I’m rubbish at parking. Outdoor space also a luxury for cottages here . Had everything we needed for a lovely stay, Would recommend highly

• "I wonder how often the owners check this house and whether they are satisfied with its general condition and cleanliness."

  We found it was distinctly random, with some basic work surfaces cleaned and many other areas completely neglected, resulting in many cobwebs, dirt and dust. Sadly for this reason alone, we would not rebook. We also found the house and garden neglected, needing care and attention, eg broken garden furniture, no door hooks at all for wet coats, etc. very thick dust on the fire surround and covering all the utensils, broken bathroom door handle, shower control sticking and often hard to turn off, random old, not working, or out of date items/ornaments, broken or incomplete telescope…… We felt, given the local shop has closed, at least a pint of milk would also have been welcome on arrival and note that house details, eg wifi info given, in the earlier email, no longer applies. All of that said, the house is in a good position, has private parking and really wonderful sea views. If you feel on balance, that is more important, then it does provide economical accommodation.

  Thank you for your feedback. Our usual cleaner has not been available since December, and it appears that our high standards of cleanliness and instructions to leave milk have slipped. We will try to address this. We have replaced the picnic bench in the garden following your comments. We were asked to remove coat hooks as the front door hallway is too narrow. Hooks are available in the hallway cupboard, and there is a boot room in the downstairs entrance. We will make this clear for new arrivals. We appreciate your feedback and are glad you were able to still have an enjoyable stay. Property Owner

• "All in all was 10 out of 10."

  One point I would mention is getting into the parking space is a little tight. Going back this year, views are amazing, property cosy

  Thanks for your feedback. I will put in the welcome email that the best way to park in the space is to drive past and then reverse in. Property Owner

  Fantastic views, warm and comfortable with ample logs provided for the woodburner. Perfect for us as an able bodied couple. A bit challenging access for the elderly or very young.

• "We have stayed at Wooton Gray several times."

  It's a comfortable, welcoming property in a stunning and convenient location and it has parking - a real bonus in Mousehole! The recent innovations downstairs are excellent, particularly the shower room. The only reservation I have about the shower room is that there are no grab rails, which for older visitors (such as us) makes it a little difficult to use. A couple of minor points: clothes hooks on the inside of the shower room door would be good and a rack for shampoo etc. fixed to the wall in the shower. Unfortunately, this was our last visit to WG - not because of anything wrong with the property, we have loved staying there, but this time we found the journey down and back, the hill and the steps challenging. So, with regret, we have said "Goodbye" to Wooton Gray and West Cornwall. We shall be scouring your property list for something nearer to home.

• "Have stayed in this wonderful property on several previous occasions and enjoyed the great views and facilities."

  It has actually been enhanced on this occasion by the recent addition of the excellent wet room, utility room and lounge, leading out to the patio ‘sun trap’ in the garden. Will hopefully return in the near future for another relaxing break. Thanks to Sarah, who does a great job looking after Wootton Gray.

• "This cottage is well equipped but facilities are dated, paintwork is grubby and kitchen cupboard doors were dirty."

  It was surface clean but things like the cooker hood and light fittings etc were very dusty. There were cobwebs in every corner and in the main bedroom, there was a cobweb that extended across the whole width of the bed head!! The toilet bowl in the downstairs toilet leaked and had apparently been a problem for a long time looking at the faults book! The main reason I booked this cottage was it’s position and the views which were decidedly marred by the fact that the picture window in the lounge had blown and the telescope that was featured didn’t work either. Being health care professionals, we are very aware of the covid requirements and we didn’t consider this cottage to be covid ready. It is a shame that the owners did not take the opportunity of lockdown to address some if not all of the issues that I have outlined. This cottage is up a fairly steep bank and, along with the stairs is really not suitable for anyone with mobility problems.

  Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry that you felt the property fell below your expectations. I have passed on comments regarding cupboard doors, cooker hood, light fittings and cobwebs to our normally excellent cleaner. She has assured me that she will pay particular attention to these areas in future. The toilet bowl has been repaired recently and the leak now appears very slow, but I have arranged for a replacement to be fitted as soon as possible. I’m afraid I was unaware of any problems with the main picture window. I have arranged a date for a specialist glazing company to come and address the issue. The telescope is unfortunately a very sensitive instrument! It does work well but does require careful focusing. We have taken the current situation with Covid very seriously indeed and can fully understand the anxieties and concerns that our guests may have which is why we have taken multiple Covid precautions at the property and these should have been outlined in an email sent before arrival. The property listing on Sykes states ‘Steep steps to front door make the property unsuitable for guests with mobility issues’. We hope to complete our usual schedule of necessary updates during the winter months and will ensure to address the areas you have highlighted. Property Owner

  Wootton Gray was very well equipped and it felt very much like a home from home. The milk, sugar, tea and Cornish fairings were very welcome after a long journey. The flowers added that wonderful welcoming touch. The beds were super comfy with high quality bed linen. Informative letter from the owners really helped us get the most from our stay, as did the folders and leaflets at the house. We would certainly have no hesitation is staying here again!

  The owner kindly emailed details to familiarise ourselves with the property and location which was very helpful. The house is clean and thoughtfully appointed with comfy beds. It has stunning views and off street parking which was useful, as the roads became parked up during the regatta. Easy access to supermarkets and restaurants in Penzance and a good base for the area. Would stay here again.

• "We have many years of experience of renting property all over the world and Wootton Gray comes high on our list but there is stiff competition in the South West."

  Before we would go there again there are some things we would like to see changed. The location is superb but the house needs someone to go through it to clear the clutter of superfluous kitchen and dining equipment, non perishable food, extra cleaning materials and old brochures and leaflets, etc, including a non-working monocular with a stand. The instructions were clear and helpful. Pillows and cushions were tired and lumpy in some instances.

  The owners are delighted that Wootton Gray is high on your list of places to stay in the South West. The owners will ensure that all brochures are current and that any lumpy pillows are replaced. Property Owner

  It was difficult to park with a long car the space is very tricky to get into. The house suited our needs very well. Because of the very steep hill we had to drive every time we went out.
