  • "The cabin was ideal for the 2 of us."

    Great location. Good facilities. Thank you for speedily providing a replacement kettle when needed. One suggestion. If a relatively small area of the garden could be levelled below the cabin, one could enjoy views of the sea.

    Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and would love to welcome you back anytime in the future. All suggestions/comments can be viewed by the property owner so these are appreciated. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

  • "Thank you for your brilliant little holiday cabin."

    The photographs in the listing do not do the cabin justice. It's a lovely place with everything a couple or small family needs. The location is also amazing: literally 2 minutes walk from the local beach and pub; 10 minutes walk into Port Isaac; and perfectly placed for short distance drives to other beaches and villages along the coast. Hopefully we'll be back soon!

  • "Location was perfect!"

    Mattress was so comfortable I had straight nights sleep which I never do at home. I had everything I needed in the prettiest of places. It won't stop me coming back but on arrival there were several dead flies on the floor. I also had a lot of trouble with the key safe which was very stiff and difficult to access.

    Thank you so much for providing us with your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Cartway Cabin. We have noted your comments and have referred them to our housekeeping and maintenance teams who will address the issues raised.

  • "Another excellent stay at Cartway Cabin, all was in good order, exactly as last time."

    It is wonderful to see the little garden develop, the seedums and agapanthus are perfect. Really appreciate these touches. Also, a massive thank you to all at John Bray who helped deal with my forgotten (and very valuable) luggage. It arrived today and I am extremely grateful that this was dealt with so swiftly and carefully. We will be booking again!

    Thank you for your lovely comments, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us again. Happy to hear your luggage has arrived home with you safely and we very much look forward to welcoming you again very soon. John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owners. Property Owner

    We felt very good there. The location is great and very quiet. The beds are unfortunately not good, because in the bedroom downstairs very small for 2 people (about 1.30m wide) and upstairs only suitable for very small persons like children.

  • "Lovely cosy little cabin perfect for one or two would be difficult with two couples due to the issues discussed elsewhere with only one toilet off the Master bedroom."

    I was very fortunate with the weather and the patio was very nice for doing yoga in the morning. A Sun lounger would’ve been nice. All in all Good value for money.

  • "'Position is good."

    Outside deck south facing so sunny and with great view of Gaverne valley. Compact space but good for a couple but not 2 couples. Reason is bathroom only accessible from ground floor bedroom. Obvious problems therefore if toilet needed during nightime. The use of lights on, doors creaking, ceiling light on cord pull that clicks, flushing cistern, embarrassing noises etc, all this will wake up the couple in bed who might not even have been sleeping anyway! Could all be very awkward and takes privacy and intimacy away. The listing states there is a fridge and on next line a fridge/freezer. There is no photo of it on the restricted pics available. In actual fact there is only a fridge below worktop with a small top freezer box. Ok for fishfingers but not if you take frozen food with you, as we do so as to avoid cooking to much. There are no cupboards to store food so it all has to be clogging worktop space. New fridge would be good due to the door tray falling out every time its opened so milk & wine etc hits the floor. Wall cupboard to left of sink easy to fit for food storage'.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused by these issues. Your comments have been passed on to the team at John Bray Cornish Holidays and to the owner. We hope you still managed to enjoy your visit despite these issues and would love to welcome you back to North Cornwall in the future. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner.

  • "Good location for access to Port Gaverne and Port Isaac ."

    Steep climbs but lovely walks . Had all we needed for the 2 of us for the week . Nice design and layout . Having parking is a bonus in this area. Only downsides were no upper bracket to have a shower . Clothes line falling apart . Garden is a wilderness overgrown with weeds and thistles . The Cartway Cove next door has beautifully presented gardens . With a little T L C to the outside area this could be perfect .

    Thank you for your comments on Cartway Cabin. We will look into the items that you have raised. John Bray Cornish Holidays Property Owner

  • "This was a lovely cottage in a extremely picturesque location."

    Only a short walk down to the harbour and then on to Port Issac. The only two comments were; the shower, you had to sit down in the bath to have a shower! Quite a few previous customers have commented on this before. The garden, we felt like the poor neighbours compared to the house next door with their lovely lawns. I am all for the wild garden but just a little tidy up along the path and the front of the decking would have been good. I would have done it myself if there had been some shears left. However would definitely recommend this cabin for comfort and location.

    The property is in a gorgeous spot and, once our legs were acclimatised to the hilly terrain, the walks into Port Isaac and along the coastal path were really enjoyable. The Cabin was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The ladder to the mezzanine bedroom was very steep and should be highlighted in the description. We look forward to a return visit

  • "This was a very nice cottage and we loved staying there."

    However it is short of storage space and you should advise clients to use soft luggage rather than suitcases particularly if there is a party of 4 in the family. There is nowhere to store food and the owner might consider putting another cupboard to the left of the sink.

About the location

PORT ISAAC

Polzeath 6.5 miles; Padstow 16 miles

Port Isaac; one of the true Cornish treasures. A beautiful fishing village nestling in a steep sided valley, the old village in the valley remains unchanged from its days of fishing, slate export and smuggling in the previous century. An abundance of small character properties complemented by larger cliff-top retreats, can be found with easy access to the numerous restaurants and shops of the village. The sandy harbour provides an abundance of rock pools as the tide retreats. There is ample parking at the top of the village and the village is a popular tourist destination with plenty of attractions including the dramatic Doyden Castle, the beautiful Lundy Bay and the famous Doc Martin's clinic. There are also plenty of pubs, restaurants, and shops in the village. Just a short drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike.
