Amazing location, but just a bit too remote. One of the roads near Constantine was closed for the first few days, so there was near gridlock at the bottom of the headland every time we left or returned to the cottage. Also, the lobby area, bathroom and kitchen had loads of woodlice that I had to catch every time I went into one of those areas. The cottage was beautiful, but I would be put off booking again based on the above.

The cottage was in a superb location with magnificent views from the sitting room and the dining room out to sea, something we really enjoyed and appreciated. It was near a whole range of fabulous walks and Padstow was a short drive away. The kitchen was extremely well kitted out (a particularly good dishwasher with a wide range of programmes) and the bedroom was comfortable. We were surprised, though, by the hamper where we thought several items which we had assumed would be there were missing. Unlike the hamper in the only other Rural Retreats cottage we've stayed in there was no wine, cheese, biscuits or marmalade and we assumed the very large chocolate cake and the scones and jam were provided as a substitute (though not at all what we'd expected or planned for). Fortunately we were able to replace these items ourselves with a visit to the stores at Constantine. I've since talked to friends who've stayed at Trevose Head who registered surprise and I noticed one comment in the visitors' book commented on the the superb hamper, "the best we've had" so we have to assume there'd been some sort of glitch. In every other respect it was a highly enjoyable holiday and we shall most certainly book again with Rural Retreats.

The view is stunning. Standard of cleanliness and comfort in the cottage was really good. The hamper was above our expectations and i have now changed my type of coffee based upon this! The cottage was very well equipped other than provision of a sharp vegetable knife! The occupation of the other 3 cottages was booked with a single sex party which surprised us a little although overall, we were not bothered by them

We had an amazing time/ experience at the lighthouse over Xmas. Only downsides, tired/ grubby carpets in entrance hall, blunt knives in kitchen, no cushions on sofas and hamper of local produce was a box of 6 Tesco mince pies (not really as advertised). This was a slight disappointment bearing in mind cost. Regardless, it was an amazing place to stay for someone who loves the sea and we did not let it spoil our time. If I could give 3.5 stars I would.
