• "The cooker needs replacing."

  It works, but you can no longer read the oven and grill temperatures. Also we had to buy a pan from Tesco as they were too old and dirty to use. You need to supply another medium saucepan,as there is only one huge one and one medium one apart from the milk pan. The knives and forks are also tatty. When I stripped the beds to leave I noticed how old and grey the duvets were,they need replacing as well. However the shower was good. You have the hot water set perfectly,we never had to boost it. The extra fridge in the garage was very useful. There was lots of storage space.

• "We enjoyed our week in Polzeath."

  The house was perfect providing everything promised and more. The views from the house were stunning. The walk back up to the house from the beach is very steep and not a suitable walk for everyone.

• "Our stay of four adults at Godolphin was in the first week of June."

  The first thing to note was how super clean the property was when we entered, as a first impression it couldn't have been better. The location is perfect, very near the beach and shops. Godolphin is well appointed and comfortable with an absolutely super view of the bay. It has a good sized back garden and which has the sun in the afternoons. The bedrooms were a reasonable size and the beds were comfortable. All in all an ideal holiday let, many thanks.

• "I think it would be helpful to know that the walk to the beach and from the bungalow is quite taxing."

  We enjoyed the fantastic view from the bungalow and recognise that in this case the bungalow is in a prime location.

  Many thanks for your feedback which we really appreciate.This feedback has been passed on to the owner which will help with future bookings. Property Owner

• "The cottages was very comfortable , the shower was brilliant and the bedrooms were also very comfortable."

  There are steep steps to encounter especially those leading down to the garage. The garage was very useful to store our bikes. We found the the cooking facilities rather basic with an old fashioned hob which was slow and difficult to use since it was difficult to read the numbers on the dials.

• "Had a great week at Godolphin."

  Very comfortable and great views. Ideally situated for good access to the coast path and beaches. Many thanks to the owner for arranging the cleaning of the property in time for us access the property to meet our supermarket delivery at 4.00pm. We hadn’t been made aware that check in and check out times had changed to allow thorough cleaning of the property. Entirely understandable. We particularly appreciated the new and clean flooring throughout the property. We would definitely book here again.

• "There were a few issues."

  Time of arrival stated as 3pm on all paperwork but were told on arrival by cleaners it was 5pm. Difficult after long journey and one of the party suffering from ME and looking forward to lie down. Beautiful views but not stated anywhere that property on steep hill and 5 min access to village and beach gained only by going up and down steep hill - again difficult if you have ME. Niggles with front door lock seizing which was notified but not resolved 3 days later. Property pretty tired and little issues like showerhead not keeping in place but kept dropping down when used. Also several light bulbs not working. Summary - I think it would be beneficial to state that property is on hill and access to beach/village when walking is via steep hill (holidaymakers aren't always young and fit). Also the arrival time should be accurate to allow better travel planning. Property would benefit from a bit more maintenance.

  Thank you for your feedback in regards to your stay at Godolphin (918894). The check in time for this property is 5.30pm, this is to allow for additional cleaning due to Covid-19. Regarding the property being on a steep hill, Polzeath is a hilly village, however, we have now added an additional note on our website to state this. In terms of the light bulbs, we also leave additional bulbs in the property as you can never determine when a bulb is going to go, as soon as you made us aware of this, we were able to send someone to the property to resolve this for you. We are sorry to hear that you had difficulties during your stay, although we do hope you enjoyed your holiday to Polzeath. Property Owner

• "Close to the Polzeath beach and a 30 min walk to Rock."

  Wonderful views from the house and garden.

• "The views from this property are outstanding I could of just sat all day in the lounge at the window."

  The property is in a great location and in a lovely quiet residential road. The owners have left a garage full of beach equipment which is useful for youngsters and there is a large garden At the rear of the property though it does require a bit of t l c, but there is a nice private seating area. Parking on a flat drive for two cars which in this street is a bonus as it is on a hill. The house has all the utensils you require and the beds are very comfortable and made with lovely soft bed linen and you are provided with lovely hotel fluffy towels, I would not hesitate in recommending this property, And the area of Polzeath.

• "We had a good stay."

  In general the cottage was in a rather unloved condition. We were very pleased to discover a separate toilet as well as the one in the bathroom. It would be worth mentioning that in the listing. There was a chair in the sitting room that was actually totally broken but they had shoved a pillow underneath it to keep it alive and the chair just sheds foam all over the floor. The cottage was in a great position with lovely views. We suspect that the cess pit needs emtying as the loos behaved rather strangely often seeming blocked. Overall we had a great stay but this cottage could do with a bit of tlc.

• "A lovely property - clean, well-equipped and comfortable with good access to the beach (5 min walk along road into Polzeath) and beautiful views."

  Ample storage for boards, wetsuits, etc and pleasant garden to sit and enjoy view and/or sunshine! Would certainly return.

• "Might be worth mentioning that the driveway / parking are not for the faint hearted."

  OK for the young, but not so easy when aging. We really liked the bungalow and would go again.

• "On arrival at property it had not been cleaned and had no linen or towels."

  Good initial contact with sykes customer services then I felt it was left to me to chase. Eventually got into a cleaned property at 1830. On complaining I was eventually offered £50 a week later which equates to less than half a days rent which I reluctantly accepted.
