Pelorus Cottage

Very satisfied with all our holiday.

Magnífica elección, más si tenemos en cuenta que en España todavía estamos en pañales respecto al aprovechamiento turístico de los faros y sus dependencias anexas (la oferta es mínima).
Faro, Cornualles, océano, viento, lluvia, niebla, nubes, sol, arco iris, gaviotas... Y, si la suerte acompaña, podrás ver algún mamífero marino desde tu ventana.
¿Quieres más? Que la instalación esté recién reformada, con encanto y comodidad. También lo tienes. El Trevose Head Lighthouse es una finca que incluye una construcción en forma de flecha con el faro situado en la punta. A ambos lados hay dos plantas bajas con dos apartamentos en cada una. Aparcas el coche junto a la puerta de tu "cottage". Padstow estará a unos 15 minutos en coche y junto al faro pasa el sendero de la costa del que puedes disfrutar a discreción.
¿Todavía más? Sí, más. Tienen el detalle de dejarte un cesto de bienvenida con pan, mermelada, té, café, galletas, "scones"... Que si lo añades al zumo, leche, queso, huevos, mantequilla y fruta que encontrarás en el frigo pues ya tienes el desayuno encarado. No creo que eches de menos nada de menaje.
Ahora paso a nombrar qué mejoraría.
Wi-Fi algo regulero. Iba y venía. Además la cobertura 3G es cortita y los muy enganchados a la minipantalla pueden acabarse haciendo daño con un libro, conversando o, simplemente, contemplando el paisaje.
Entrega de las llaves. Supongo que las celebrities y alguien más lo prefieren así pero no es mi caso. Eché de menos una persona que te diese las llaves al mismo tiempo que te muestra la instalación. Encontrar un llavero en una cajita encajada en la fachada con un código secreto para los que no estamos al servicio de SM es algo frío.
Corolario: experiencia de las que no olvidas y con ganas de repetir e, incluso, plantear una ruta por la pérfida albión alojándote en sus impresionantes faros.
(Perdón si se te ha hecho largo, hoy me ha dado por extenderme)

Sehr gute Ferienwohnung. Eingeschränkte teure Bezahlmöglichkeiten.

Great to to see the kitchen has been updated,

First class very clean and wonderful fittings and with a great view

Amazing. Lovely helpful staff. One of the most special spots in the world. I'll definitely book there again. Thank you .

Lovely new kitchen and beds. These cottages are in such a fabulous location, the views are stunning.
Personally, I'd prefer a better bottle of wine and be happy without the cream tea stuff. My sense is if I want a cream tea I'd go out and have it in town (adds to the experience).

The extra touches for the Xmas period made our holiday extra special

an excellent well maintain property will definitely choose again in the very near future

Perfect location, excellent accomodation

An excellent cottage, with a wonderful welcome hamper that set us up wonderfully for a great short break. Very well looked after cottage, which was spotlessly clean and tidy.

The housekeeping was very good and we appreciated the basket of goodies The apartment was clean and in good order. The bed was comfortable. The road to the lighthouse was long and lonely and the place was a bit spooky after sunset.

wonderful place & very welcoming service

Victoria always has the cottage nice and clean. The, new kitchen utensils were a welcome addition as we like to cook. One thing that we thought could be improved was the length of the shower screen, it's really impossible to stop the water getting out and the bath panel has been springing out for the last few visits so it goes behind
there.
Pelorus cottage.
This may a be trinity house issue , the outside drainpipe by the dining room
has about 5 cm missing in the middle and you can see there's water ingress to the wall, I only mention it to save a costly repair at a later date ( it's been like that the last 2 visits) someone knows as they've attempted to put Gaffa tape round it, which has now washed away.

Beautifully clean. All essentials bin bags, toilet rolls etc. were fully stocked. Welcome hamper and flowers were a lovely touch.

Property fantastic but roads nearby are horrendous,only wide enough for 1 car and hardly any passing places our car was nearly damaged on several occasions so we were forced to walk everywhere. Clearly not your fault but maybe people should be made aware - if you care about your car beware!!

the property was spotless and on our arrival we were greeted by a wonderful hamper, we once contacted the housekeeper with a query and she was very helpful

The house keeping was excellent, unfortunately the kitchen units are looking a bit tired, one door had nearly fallen off and was held on with one screw, the bed frame slats had been rebuilt but have been left too long and squeaked every time you moved, the drainpipe was held together with Gaffa tape. etc basically poor maintenance and repair work, which will damage the building eventually.

Housekeeper excellent and very helpful, very clean and cosy cottage. However cottage itself failed miserably on health and safety. I was unable to use bathroom because no grab rails over the bath which are imperative to me as I am a stroke victim. Did take my own grab handles but they would not stick to grooved tiles on wall.
Notified housekeeper who immediately reported this to Rural Retreats.
The rubber seal on the inside of fridge door kept coming off so door did not close properly.
Kitchen cabinet door near the sink came off its hinges when opened so couldn't use it and contents has to be stored on work surface.
Have been with Rural Retreats a few times now but this was well below their usual high standard, expect a lot more from them and would welcome a response regarding these comments, especially regarding the bathroom.

Cottage reached our expectations and the housekeeper couldn't have done any more for us. She was cheerful and informative about the area.
