• "This was our 9th stay at this lovely cottage, we have booked it every year since 2019 coming twice on a couple of years, even had our honeymoon here."

  It is comfortable, well equipped and in a beautiful setting, it provided us with an excellent base to travel all over Cornwall. There are some good eating places close by which we have used. The Punchbowl and Ladle, The Pandora and The Heron at Malpas. The enclosed back garden was good for our 2 dogs who knew where we were going when we got close on our journey down. We would certainly keep using this cottage if it was available

• "Lovely place to stay."

  We really enjoyed our break in spite of the bad weather. The bungalow was so comfortable. The views were great from inside. The shrubs need pruning to be able to sit outside and enjoy the view. A sitting area in the back garden would be good as this area is dog secure.

• "This was our 2nd stat at Creek View."

  The property is perfect. It has everything to make your holiday comfortable and enjoyable. The garden is beautiful with a stunning view of the river and countryside beyond. Situated in a great location with many lovely walks also within easy reach of some spectacular Cornish coastline, beaches, places to visit and other amenities. We already have plans to return in 2026.

• "Wonderful stay at Creek view, beautifully situated with stunning views."

  The welcome pack was really appreciated. Sitting out on the patio, overlooking the Creek was a real treat, despite the weather! Plenty to see and do, highly recommend Lost Gardens of Helligan. We would recommend at least 2 visits which is easily done by upgrading your ticket to a weekly pass at no extra cost.

• "A beautifully sited, spacious bungalow with a wonderful view, lovely garden and comfortable beds."

  It was spotlessly clean and well equipped (though a spare loo roll would have been welcome!). Our only (minor) criticism is that the arm chairs were not particularly comfortable but that is a very personal thing. We would happily return; such a wonderful base from which to explore a beautiful part of the world.

  We love the location with its lovely views over the creek, although the weather didn't allow us to chill on the patio this time. The house, as normal, was immaculate, clean and comfortable with everything needed for our stay. We are looking forward to our next holiday here in September

• "Our first stay at Creek View and we hope to come back next year with kayak and bikes."

  We loved almost everything about it. The view over the Creek is beautiful any time of day, the peace and tranquility, comfortable beds, lovely quality cotton bedding, white fluffy towels and lots of hot water. We loved to eat our breakfast at the table looking out over the Creek with the changing tide and big sky. A massive bonus were the blackout blinds and curtains in the bedrooms, these really helped keep the rooms cool during the day and the early sunrise from waking us too early. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you could need with a welcome pack on arrival, though not to our dietary requirements - very welcome and appreciated at the end of a long drive. I loved how clean the cottage is/was, a real bonus as usually I have to wash a few things and clean before use. We were very sad to leave, a week is too short to explore the beautiful Fal River estuary and river with its little coves and wooded sides...so much to see, do and offer. Creek View was a perfect base, close to Truro for supplies and not far from many stunning beaches and places of interest. If any improvements were to be suggested it would be to have a big squashy sofa or two as the current one and armchairs are a little uncomfortable for any lounging after a shower and long day out. We thought the pond might have a leak in the liner as we filled it daily, sometimes morning and evening but still noticed the water level drop. I can see why people return again and again to Creek View as it has so much to offer. Thank you for a lovely first stay.

• "We found the property in Excelllent condition as usual [we have stayed many times with you before] the only small problem was the front door key was missing, not in the box."

  I reported this to housekeeping as soon as possible as did not want to be blamed for loosing it and charged the fine. Now a lost key has two reasons as you will well know, if it was taken away fine but if it was dropped near by the finder could walk in any time of the day or "night" My wife and I are both over 90 and that is why we have always booked with you before, If we had been informed sooner it would have helped. but I had to to find out myself from housekeeping by the "Thursday" that the key had been taken away by the previous occupant.

• "We arrived to the sound of a constantly dripping kitchen tap and discovered from the property maintenance book, that this was reported early in September plus there were number of other ongoing issues recorded by visitors over the past 4 months."

  An additional annoyance was that we had not been left any hand soap for kitchen or either of the two bathrooms plus a bathroom caddy that had become so rusty, mould had started to appear, disgusting. We immediately phoned the property manager who asked that we wait until Monday, to which we reluctantly agreed. After persistence on our behalf the tap was replaced on Wednesday and hand soap provided the same day. We had also reported the microwave making a hissing noise when not in use, apparently this tested electrically safe and we were told the owners were not prepared to replace it. This and a number of other issues remain unresolved for future guests. However despite the above we loved the property and regret the issues were not addressed more urgently.

  We were very sorry to learn that Creek View recently failed to meet expectations, a most unwelcome blemish on our long-held record of meeting or exceeding expectations. We have of course taken all steps necessary to remedy the problems noted. We would like to add that as one more part of our on-going maintenance and improvement, we are now in the process of widening the old 1960s driveway to make it easier for today's larger vehicles to negotiate. Our aim with all of this is to ensure that our guests enjoy a thoroughly relaxed stay, without worries or difficulties of any sort. Property Owner

• "This is the 2nd time that we have stayed here & the only thing that lets it down is the garden."

  The gardener does attend but does not cut back the plants right outside the back door or where the steps & walking area is. It means you get wet if its damp or attacked by spiders! Its is always clean & tidy & has everything that you need. An outside light at the back would be good.

  Many thanks for your feedback. Your comments in relation to the garden have been fully taken on board and fed back to the owners of the property. We hope that you enjoyed your stay, and we hope to welcome you again at Creek View! Property Owner

• "We booked 2 weeks at Creek View, we had stayed here the year before and loved it, such a lovely cottage and location."

  It has everything you could want. We got married 6th March 2020 and the 2 weeks booked from 21st March 2020 was to be our honeymoon. We arrived on the Saturday and unpacked then spent a lovely sunny Sunday on the patio chilling as the weather was gorgeous. Managed to walk the dogs on a beach Monday but unfortunately, Monday evening the lock-down was called so we had to pack up everything that night and we left early Tuesday morning to come home. Expensive 3 days!! Luckily we managed to defer the 2nd week and booked another week with it so we could have 2 weeks in March 2021 hoping we will get away near our first anniversary. Fingers crossed

  Feock is a beautiful, unspoilt area of Cornwall and the views across the creek were idyllic. Lots of lovely walks too with plenty of well-marked public footpaths, which our dog loved. We found the property managers, Hayley and Mark, very helpful, friendly and communicative. The bungalow is very accessible and extremely comfortable throughout. We particularly appreciated the log burner on the two windy/rainy days we had.

  The location was lovely and the views were amazing. We did pick the right week with the weather, sunny every day☀️ and were able to sit and watch the sun go down on the patio with a drink, we had to keep reminding ourselves that it was March. There was plenty of places to eat, The Punchbowl and Ladle and The Pandora being just 2 of the places visited. We had been through 5 tough months due to bereavement and needed to recharge the batteries, we have certainly managed that. We have lots of good memories and loads of photos to look at. Thank you
