• "Interior a little dated and tired."

  No hot water only lukewarm. Sink In bathroom slow to empty and strong smell of sewerage outside some days. Chairs in living room not very comfortable. Bed however was very comfortable and towels were lovely.

  Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry if you felt the cottage was a little tired inside. We have just had new flooring throughout and we do try to keep things up to standard. The sink in the bathroom has been plunged and is now draining freely. We are looking into the hot water as the thermostat was changed earlier this year! The sewage smell may in part have been due to local farmers muck spreading but again, this is being investigated. Property Owner

• "Honeysuckle cottage was a lovely place to stay, with everything provided you could want - except no corkscrew!"

  Not having a smartphone or satnav it took me a while to locate Trevalgas cottages but friendly natives pointed the way and then another resident told me how to reach the A39 really easily, after that getting about was plain sailing. The only downside for me and my very old dog was not being able to walk off the site to a good exercise area as the surrounding lanes were narrow and not very safe so we had to actually drive somewhere. This wouldn't worry most people.

  We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your feedback and apologies about the lack of a corkscrew. We actually replaced it a month ago so not sure where its gone but another replacement purchased today! Property Owner

• "There was more included here than I had been led to believe from other reviews."

  Cupboards had egg cups and all other utensils one might need There was even complimentary tea and coffee and loo roll. There was washing up liquid and cleaning materials too. (Cork screw broken however fyi). A small sofa would be my only suggestion. Two chairs in Honeysuckle cottage perfectly adequate but I do love to put my feet up. Site was very well kept. Location ideal to get to most places. Wifi was as advertised a little dodgy. But did use it when possible. Indoor Pool was a real bonus!

  Thank you for your review. The corkscrew has been replaced! Regarding the sofa, we did have a sofa previously however visitor feedback was that two chairs would be better! Just a matter of personal preference I guess. Property Owner

• "A clean and comfortable little cottage in pleasant surroundings."

  The dogs were made welcome with throws provided to put on the bed or chairs if the dogs like to go on them, instead of a list of rules saying they’re not allowed and the enclosed garden was good for them. The cottage was well equipped with everything you would need for a week away and the bed was comfortable. The only thing I would suggest is more hangers in the wardrobe as there were only 4 but that is a minor point. We would definitely stay again.

  We're so pleased you liked our cottage. I visit at least twice a year and every time I buy more hangers! Will be taking replacements when I visit next month, thank you for the heads up. Property Owner

• "Nice quiet cottage in rural setting, the use of the swimming pool was a bonus."

  the accuracy of the garden image was very deceptive, only big enough for a tortoise. The directions were very difficult to follow, thankfully with the help of locals we arrived eventually. even the locals that helped us said they were poor

  We're sorry you found the directions unclear. As for the garden, it is small however it is perfectly adequate, with sufficient space for the table, two chairs, bbq , a small lawn and flower bed. It would have to be an extremely large tortoise! Glad you liked the pool. Property Owner

• "The property had everything we needed and was very comfortable - especially the bed."

  The property inside was clean but the outside door /window / patio frames/ guttering etc could do with a clean - they are full of cobwebs. The handle on the inside of the bathroom door needs some attention - it comes off in your hand when you close the door. I think it could be made clearer that if you want to walk anywhere from the property there is only one way in and out of the complex and the road that you have to use is not very wide and there is no pavement. We enjoyed our stay here but won’t be returning.

  Thank you for your feedback. I can confirm that the window cleaner has visited and carried out the external cleaning. We are attending to the bathroom door handle too. We're sorry you will not be returning. Property Owner

  It's so peaceful. The added benefit of the enclosed garden was perfect for our little dog ! The cottage was comfortable and well equipped with everything you would need. Although we didn't use the onsite facilities we were ensured by our neighbours in the next cottage that they were great. We would definitely book Honeysuckle Cottage again

  We had the most enjoyable week, The cottage had everything we needed, although it was smaller than I expected, if like us you are only going to use this as a base and intend to be out and about for most of the day it is perfect, it is perfectly located for visiting many tourist sites and less than a 10-minute drive from the beautiful Summerleaze beach & the town centre with plenty of shops & bars, there is also a lovely walk down by the canal, all in all, we had a lovely, relaxing week and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys long walks in tranquil surroundings

• "We arrived last saturday 14/09/19, after unpacking and getting settled we sat down to watch tv for the evening, after about an hour i started to itch and scratch till we went to bed."

  the next morning when i opened the curtains the sun shone on to chair i was sat in, the whole chair was covered in dogs hair, i had to brush the hairs on to the carpet and hoover it up. The rest of the holiday was very uncomfortable plus we were finding flea,s on us. I know you have a welcome pet,s policy but should dogs be allowed to sit in the chairs that we have to sit in after. The location of the cottage was excellent, pool was great, everything else was fine.

  I was extremely disappointed to receive your feedback via Sykes,particularly as in recent weeks we had received two 100% responses. I had already been alerted by our caretaker, Renee, who had found your note on Saturday. We always strive to provide a clean and welcoming cottage and I am upset that this did not happen on the day you arrived at Trevalgas - I have asked our caretaker to ensure that this does not happen again. With regard to fleas, during the summer months many of the cottages suffer as the result of fleas being picked up by dogs on beaches etc (or bringing them on holiday with them) however my sister had recently given all of our cottages a treatment as a precaution even though no fleas had actually been reported in our cottages so that they should not have been present! Our caretaker is carrying out another treatment to make sure there are none remaining. She would, of course, have been more than happy to carry out additional cleaning and to spray for fleas during your stay had she been aware of the problem. Finally, I note your comment regarding dogs on chairs and I certainly would not allow it, but unfortunately we cannot control what other guests do whilst they are on holiday or indeed in their own homes. I apologise that your stay was not as comfortable as it should have been and trust that despite this you did enjoy your time at Trevalgas. As you can see, your valuable feedback has been noted and appropriate action taken. Property Owner

• "The cottage is in an ideal location with all local supermarkets and the town centre being a short 5-10 minute drive away."

  There is very little sound of passing traffic due to the location of Trevalgas cottages. As a result, the sheep and birds can be heard all throughout the day which is very calming. The cottage itself was extremely clean and comfortable. It had everything from cutlery to a fully equipped picnic basket! The on-site laundry room is especially handy and the heated swimming pool is a bonus. I would highly recommend Honeysuckle cottage to those looking for an alternative to a hotel and wish to be a little closer to nature. My partner and I, and our 2 dogs, will definitely be returning! Thank you to Reneé for the cleanliness and upkeep of the property ♡

  at Honeysuckle cottage, Poughill, again. So comfortable, clean & equipment first class. Our only disappointment was the heating system at the swimming baths which is letting everyone down again. The swimming pool, Games room, outside surroundings & access to Town & beautiful coast line walks are a real asset.

• "This is our third visit to the property so we obviously really like the Cottage and the facilities which includes the indoor swimming pool."

  If I could have one plea it would be to replace the vacuum cleaner, its an outdated model and in need of a filter change; but the main factor is that its such hard work to try and clean up dog hairs to ensure we can leave the Cottage clean. Poughill is a lovely village, very friendly with plenty of eating places that welcome dogs. A thoroughly recommended break.
