Warm and Cosy

Warm and Cosy. Our host Senan was kind and helpful, he stepped in and provided his Mobile charger. Due to the poor internet (Cornwall Problem) a DVD player would have been most welcome. Don't let the tight access to parking put you off booking.

Absolutely gorgeous as usual (5th stay). Amazing walks - amazing beaches. Only thing is, if you can't live without the World Wide Web then it's probably not for you (download speed about 0.3MB/sec). For us that was the best bit!

Everythings OK

We had a nice stay in beautiful Cornwall. You can't have a better place to stay in Cornwall if you like walking in beautiful, windy nature. The cottage is a perfect place to stay, with its charm from the past combined with up-to-date modernities. So we gladly give this cottage our best recommendations.

Cosy cottage

We had a lovely stay at the cottage. It was all cleaned on arrival. We found the cottage very cosy and warm. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well equiped. The garden had a little sitting area and BBQ. A nice pub with playground just a cross the street and a shop not far away.

Cosy little cottage

My husband and I stayed in this cottage for a week and we found it very comfortable. It has anything you could possibly need for staying in and cooking your own meals, which we loved! I also have to mention great wifi, which was a saviour on rainy days. The owner was communicative and helpful. Their son lives in the property next door and that also was very convenient when we had some questions. The best thing about the cottage is the location - a nice family pub is just across the road, there's a lovely cafe just 8 mins walk from the cottage, Fish and Chips place and a small shop for essentials is also down the road. Lands End Visitor Centre is just 15 mins walk (or 3 mins drive) and the beach at Sennen Cove is also about 5 mins drive. The cottage feels like you are in a quiet and isolated spot but you are still not far from civilisation. Great stay!

Mix feelings on Ivy Cottage

Our initial impressions of the cottage we’re good. We felt it was basic, but clean and suitable for our week away. We have read that turning into the parking space was tricky, but we both managed it with minimal stress in our estate car. We have visited the area nearly every year for 20years so we know the roads and beaches relatively well. We were overjoyed to learn that the weather was set to be warm and sunny all week and we managed 8 days on the beach. The cottage is well placed for both surf at Sennen and calmer beach days at Porthcurno. Lands End is a short walk and St Just a quick drive up the road. On our fist evening I found the previous occupants dirty towels hung on the bedroom door, which then set doubt in our minds as to how clean the accommodation actually was. During the week my husband swept the downstairs floor and found several items of rubbish behind the sofa that didn’t belong to us. A mug had been replaced in the cupboard that hadn’t been washed up, and several plates had food crusted on them. We were never told about the recycling system until the 6th day we were there. I couldn’t find any information in the cottage on what I should’ve done. The bedlinen in the second bedroom was of very poor quality. The kitchen had what I can assume was once a chopping board but was in such a poor state I had to chop meat and vegetables on a plate, and given how blunt the knives were I’d guess I wasn’t the first. None of the mugs or plates mugs matched which gave the place a run down feel. The immediate area around the cottage although ok, was plagued with a smell of fishing equipment which was coming from the property lived in on the site of the cottage. The Rayburn although lovely to see meant that the cottage was so hot it was almost unbearable sleep at night. We were told it burns all the time and to just open windows. This made very little difference. My family won’t return to Ivy Cottage, for the price we paid for a week it needs a big overhaul and some care given to the finer details. We have stayed in other cottages for less money that have been spotless and well cared for.

Cornwall wie im Bilderbuch

Wir hatten eine tolle Woche. Die Sonne strahlte (fast) jeden Tag. Haben viele Wanderungen (Coast-Path) unternommen. Das Cottage war für uns einfach toll. Es war alles vorhanden. (Sogar ein kleiner Gefrierschrank) Gegenüber ist ein sehr guter Pub inkl. Essen. Auch der Bus hält direkt vor dem Cottage. Alles in allem ein wundervoller Urlaub.

Was exactly as expected

Our stay in the cottage was lovely and relaxing and the cottage had everything we needed. Often when staying away from home you expect to find things a bit lacking in the kitchen and you have to compromise meals to fit with what's available but that wasn't the case here. Towels were nice and big. Location was great. We found the cottage to be nice and clean. Owners son lives on site and although we didn't need anything I'm sure if we had he would have sorted it.

Wir haben sehr schöne Tage in diesem gemütlichen und hübschen Haus verbracht. Das Haus ist hell und freundlich. Sehr schön eingerichtet. Mit Kamin und Gasofen… die Holztreppe, Meerblick, schöner Garten, nette Unterstützung vor Ort… die Nähe zum Pub „ First and Last Inn“. Ausgangspunkt zu einigen Wunderschöne Wanderungen… die Landschaft ist bezaubernd… Wir haben die Zeit genossen und würden gerne wieder kommen 😀

Nice Cottage

The cottage itself was fine a bit dated, but access was very tight to drive in, almost impossible. The host Sennen was helpful and a happy man but the area around his bungalow was very messy and unattractive to new guests.

Well Equipped

The cottage was well equipped, and a short drive from Sennen Cove. As mentioned in some of the other reviews the soft furnishings are a bit tired. It could do with new sheets and towels. The sofa and armchair could do with replacing. The listing detailed a BBQ, but we couldn't find it.

We all enjoyed our stay in this lovely bright and cheerful cottage last week. Thanks to Senan for making us so welcome. Cottage is on a quiet lane but very close to local pub shop and bus stop. Open top Atlantic Coaster is recommended for stress free travel around the area with fantastic views.

Perfect Holiday

Spent a wonderful two weeks at ivy cottage. The cottage itself is all you could ask for, clean, well equipped and comfortable. Situated close to a wealth of fantastic walking, amazing coastal villages and coves and numerous attractions. The owners son Senan (who lives next door) is a wealth of information and could not do enough to help. If you're looking for somewhere to stay in Cornwall check this place out. I will certainly be returning!
