  • "We loved staying here."

    The cottage is really spacious and cosy and brilliantly located centrally in Port Issac. We were a family of four with 2 young kids and it was perfect for us and was immaculate too. It was so handy to have a garage and parking with the cottage too. We loved making new memories in Port Issac as a family.

    Thank you so much for your kind words. It's great to hear that you had such a fabulous stay and had the perfect base to explore the local area from. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

  • "The cottage is lovely and has all the amenities."

    My only dislike was the bed was so lumpy and old, although it had a mattress cover. I think it needs to be replaced.

    We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Temple Cottage and thank you for your feedback. We will be sure to replace the mattress. Safe onward travels from the owners. Property Owner

  • "Very comfortable , would recommend but the sitting room is dark and need to keep lights on, if maximum people were staying it would feel crowded."

    Dear Helen, I trust you are well and had a safe journey home. Thank you for taking the time to complete the feedback from your recent stay at Temple Cottage. I'm glad to hear you found the property was comfortable for you. Unfortunately, due to the nature of some of the old fishermens cottages in some of our locations, I appreciate the rooms can be a bit dark. Their access to natural light is more limited due to the way they were designed historically - and therefore add to the character of the original building. We hope you otherwise had an enjoyable stay and that you choose to book with John Bray Cornish Holidays again as we would love to welcome you back to Cornwall in the very near future.

  • "This fantastic cottage has sooo many great aspects."

    It's perfectly located - truly just steps from town. You can be to the Chapel Cafe for their delicious Cornish Sweet Tea in moments, or to the Golden Lion for a wonderful dinner. The cottage itself is adorable and comfortable. I typically have mediocre expectations of the furniture and beds at rentals, but I slept like a baby in the beds and enjoyed relaxing evenings in the downstairs living room. I loved this rental, and LOVED Port Isaac.

  • "We love this cottage and once again we had a great stay."

    The trek up the to the garage hasn’t got any easier, but is getting a bit much for our 70 year old legs. I would also like you to give some consideration to installing a hand rail towards the end of the bath as stepping out gave me some cause for concern.

    Thank you very much for your feedback on your stay at Temple Cottage. We are glad that you continue to enjoy Temple Cottage and its surroundings. We take all suggestions seriously and will be sure to look into the hand rail. Property Owner

  • "Very good cottage inside with a high standard of fittings - tried the iron on Saturday and it leaked out of the base so assume someone had dropped it before me."

    Outside it would have been nice to have some pansies in the hanging baskets rather than rusty brackets with stains on the wall but this is minor really - lovely cottage and very warm and cosy

    Hello David, thank you for taking the time to leave some feedback. I will have the iron replaced immediately, the leak had not previously been brought to my attention, so thank you for letting me know about it. As for the rust marks on the exterior walls and the lack of hanging baskets, this is being rectified this weekend with a coat of paint and professionally prepared baskets which we always replace around this time of the year so they last the season. I am pleased that you found the cottage warm and cosy. Kind regards, Jacki (owner) Property Owner

Port Isaac; one of the true Cornish treasures.

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.
