Warm, comfortable, lovely situation

Lovely and quiet with wonderful views across the sea from the picnic area opposite. The Smithy just what we wanted and very comfortable for our needs. I'd happily go back. The owners were on site if there were any problems. They were very welcoming and happy to help out.

given false information

We stayed at the Summercourt Cottages (Smithys) on the 15th of August for 1 week. We came home on the 19th which is 3 nights earlrier than we should have. This is becasue there was numerous things wrong with the cottage we stayed at as well as the location. The cottage was damp and foisty downstairs which was where we were sleeping which lead to our clothes and bedding to be damp and wet. The tiles in the shower were covered with black mould and my daughters room was filled with woodlice which we had to get rid of as much as we could. The furniture such as the couches were very uncomfortable, low to the ground and weren't suited for 3 people. We payed extra for a COVID-19 cleaning bill and clearly it had not been done. There was a thick load of dust upon the furnurture and stair rail and cob webs were prominent all around the cottage. We were told the location to the nearest pub was a 10 minute walk however, we were not informed that we had to climb down a CLIFF to get to the pub which is also where the beach is. We are all for seclusion however, this was far too secluded as the nearest place was atleast 15 minutes drive which would have took longer to walk due to the roads. We have travelled down Devon and Cornwall many times and spent most in cottages and lodges and this would be by far the worst cottage we have stayed in and the first time we have shortened our holiday because of how disgusted we were in the place.

Smithy Cottage

Pleasant "upside down" cottage with all the facilities you need. Sheltered, quiet area and convenient car parking. Nice country and sea views and walks close by. Good recommendations for local hostelries and restaurants across a wide range. Get used to narrow lanes for driving, but that's Cornwall!

Knusse cottage in een mooie omgeving

Super genoten van ons verblijf! Hoewel in begin een beetje klam. Met openen van ramen gaat dat beter! Miste hier en daar wat haakjes, planken. Een tweede dienblad zou handig zijn! De omgeving is prachtig! Strand is goed te bereiken. In tien minuten! Terugweg is een goede klim.
