"Lovely, well maintained and equipped cottage."
Maybe a bit of a squeeze for more than 4 people as limited seating at the breakfast bar but there is a fold up table if needed.
Beds and sofas a little soft but that’s personal preference.
Has the advantage of its own parking space, much needed as parking elsewhere is not easy. Close to transport links, shops and restaurants.
Would definitely stay there again.
Thanks for your lovely review, we are pleased to know that you would be happy to stay again.

"Lovely house in an excellent peaceful location."
Spotlessly clean and thoughtfully appointed. The house doesn’t have enough downstairs space for 6 people to eat together unless several several eat on their laps, but this wasn’t much of an issue as we mostly ate out (try the pizzeria at the end of the street!). A great stay in beautiful Cornwall!
Thank you for your review, we’re glad you had a great stay.

"We found ‘Riverside’ to be a first class place to stay for the week."
There were only two of us but it would accommodate 6 comfortably. The facilities and information left by the owner made it a foolproof stay and we enjoyed the TV set-up in the evenings. Everything was clean, cheerful and thoughtfully arranged. If we were to return to Cornwall we would hope to stay at Riverside again.
Hi Christine
Thank you for your first class feedback, it's much appreciated. Hope to see you back again un the future.

"Our time at Riverside has sadly come to an end, after a most comfortable 3 week stay catching up with our Cornish families."
We certainly felt at home. Everything had been thought of to make our stay seem like a home from home and immaculately clean. The owners go above and beyond and when a hot water problem arose [through no fault of their own - these things happen], the issue was promptly rectified with apologies all round. Thankyou Glenn and Debbie for your hospitality and we hope to return in order to feed the swans who visited us at high tide.
Hi Kath & Ken, thank you so much for your lovely review, we're pleased to hear that you liked Riverside so much. We look foirward to welcoming you back on your next visit.

"A lovely house, as can be seen from the accurate photographs."
We came out of season, and it was cosy, as well as comfortable and practical. Beds, fixtures and equipment are all good quality. There are generous amounts of everything from storage and sockets to towels, coat hangers and dishwasher tablets. The friendly owners have clearly put a lot of thought into the property - we particularly appreciated the helpful labels for using the shower etc.
Penryn is an attractive, historic town, with a variety of good places to eat and local shops. Bus and train links are good, and there is plenty to see and do locally. It is also very handy for Falmouth University, if you are visiting anyone there.
We would thoroughly recommend this property, and hope to return before too long.
Thank you for your fantastic review, it makes us very happy to read it. Look forward to seeing you again in the future

"A comfortable, compact and clean property."
Well-maintained and well-equipped. The lounge/kitchen and master bedroom have a pretty view over the Penryn River. The allocated parking space is very useful. There's a small breakfast bar instead of a dining table and trays are also provided. There isn't a downstairs loo and we found the double beds a little small for two adults. It's in a quiet yet central position next to the town centre, harbour and bus routes. Within easy walking distance are a good farm shop (Bailey's) and two nice eateries: Muddy Beach and Pizza Pls. The owners were helpful and responsive. We enjoyed our break in this property in this lovely part of Cornwall and would recommend.
Hi Rebecca
Thank you for recommending our property. We’re very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay. See you again.
The two double beds in the property are of the standard 4’6” size.

Having a Stair gate for the top floor single bed room and some child friendly plastic plates would also be a bonus!

Tasteful decor, comfortable and well equipped. Dedicated parking was a bonus - easily accommodated 4x4. Superb location for Penryn marina and excursions to Falmouth and Roseland peninsula. Bus and train services good, boat trips from Falmouth. Penryn has a great little museum, eateries and shops - larger supermarket is 10 minutes walk.

"The property is a town house, so is over 3 floors."
This means that the top floor has no bathroom and the 1st floor has 2. This is slightly irritating for whoever has to go on the top floor but the owners have made great use of the space available.
Beautifully furnished and decorated, with very high quality white goods.
Do note that the parking is opposite a private site which has pop-up parking bollards. These are difficult to avoid in order to access the allocated space, and they damaged our car. Not at all the owners' fault but a shame nonetheless. Parking is Penryn is tricky so the allocated car parking is a godsend.
Hi Victoria
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review and thank you for acknowledging the quality of the accommodation! We have put a lot of effort into making it a top quality holiday let, so that’s really good to hear!
Yes, the two bathrooms are located on the first floor, one being the en-suite and the other being the family bathroom for the two rooms upstairs. Hopefully this wasn’t too much of an inconvenience.
Personally never had an issue with the bollards as they are usually lowered flat, but I can appreciate that drivers of larger vehicles would have to be more careful when manoeuvring than drivers of small to medium cars if/when the bollards are raised.
Hope to see you back at Riverside in the future and thank you for choosing to stay with us on this occasion
