We stayed in Tamarisk for a week in September. We enjoyed our visit and the way in which the apartment was so well equipped. Little touches like a pint of milk in the fridge, tea, coffee and biscuits left for us mean a great deal when you arrive after a long drive. We had in fact brought everything we needed as previous experiences with self catering accommodation have required an uplift of my kitchen cupboards or a very expensive first shop in the locality as soon as we arrived. One such stay needed us to bring toilet rolls!!
Not so Tamarisk - there was salt, pepper, vinegar,sugar,kitchen rolls, cling film, tin foil, washing up liquid, tea towels etc all provided. Some people may wonder why I am listing this but when you are heading off it is the little things like this which you need. They also supply a hairdryer.
The apartment itself was beautifully presented as regards decor - nice paintings, furniture in a Cornish Coast theme. It is obviously an old building and there are some cracks in the walls and damage to skirtings etc but it was certainly very clean. The carpet gave us some misgivings at first as hard floors would have appeared more serviceable but presumably the noise issues in apartments prevent replacing the carpet - there was in any event a very good hoover in the cupboard.
When we arrived we thought the fridge seemed quite small if there was a family staying but a quick look around the corner revealed another fridge and freezer.
The beds are very comfortable and both they and the towels (of which there were plenty) were of excellent quality. One previous reviewer mentioned that there was nowhere to dry beach towels and this is true - I brought a small airer from home but this is perhaps something the owner might consider investing in.
All in all we considered Tamarisk a very enjoyable experience
