  • "Had a lovely stay at Penlaurel."

    Very comfy and plenty of space to relax, cook, or enjoy the lounges in. Also a nice welcome of bubbly & chocs. The garden was large but due to some wet weather I found some flagstones very slippery underfoot. I kept my dog on his stretchy lead as parts of the garden seemed less secure for my dog and animals were entering overnight and toileting. However the garden is so big, my dog still had plenty of space to play in. The hot tub was large and welcome after a day of walking and exploring Cornwall. The hot tub is set back in amongst trees and shrubs, which was nice and private. But as the light fades in autumn we found there was not enough garden light to clearly see the entrance to the hot tub and tripped against steps partially hidden by an overgrown bush on the first night. Defo grab a torch from the property or use the one on your phone if going into the hot tub during the evenings. A garden broom would be useful so visitors can sweep away fern leaves etc away from the hot tub as we tracked some back into the house. On the last morning I found the neighbours gardener in our garden using an electric saw at height chopping down tree branches, with our side gate open. Thankfully my dog was on his lead, or he would’ve run straight out of the gate. The bloke didn’t seem remotely concerned with his behaviour and I had to quite firmly tell him to leave and shut the gate. He hadn’t even knocked at the property to ask if it was ok to come into the garden. I was fuming. I would recommend a lock for the gate to prevent another near miss. Overall we had a fantastic time, in this beautiful property. It is well located for visits to Tintagel, Bude, Padstow, Bodwin moors to name a few. I would recommend.

    Thank you for your feedback which is greatly appreciated - Penlaurel is a fabulous property and so we are so glad that you enjoyed its location and the lovely comfy lounges, local facilities and surrounding areas. The flagstones do get slippery from time to time especially after prolonged rainfall and so after checking we have had a good Jet wash all round to make this a bit better. A garden broom has now been added to the property - the trees around the hot tub are a constant headache but they do create a lovely secluded spot and so its bitter sweet. I had a word with the gardener who is very apologetic as he was under the impression that there were no guests in that week but should have checked. Property Owner
