“The cottage was lovely.”

Parking is actually easier and more convenient than suggested on the description. There is a dedicated house car space just 10 meters from the front door. It is tight but nonetheless convenient. The sleigh bed frame has a hard end and is 6ft 3in. I am 6;4 so could not lie out straight in the night. Shame. Similarly light fittings in the hall and living room are head bashers.

“Lovely clean house, kitchen fully equiped, once the guy next door had straightened up we managed to park out quashi no problem - could do with a number 5 plaque on the parking bay.”

We stupidlypicked up the back doors keys and couldnt get back in, this was 8pm on a sunday night, but it was soon thankfully rectifyied. Would definately rent again.

“The locks on the doors and windows and also the key safe badly need some maintenance.”

Also some directions to the supermarkets for when you first arrive would be helpful. Somewhere to dry your clothes . No use having a washing machine if nowhere to hang them out . Otherwise 5 Summer Court accommodation very good. ****Owner Response**** Thank you for your feedback, we have addressed the issues about the key safe and locks. We are sorry that you did not find the clothes drying rack; its location is stated in the house information folder.

“The location is excellent and the property is well maintained and comfortable.”

Lovely welcoming touches on arrival were also appreciated.
Mr Waghorn April 2018

“Well presented and comfortable house in very quaint/nice location.”

Only quibble is the size of the reserved parking space. Very tight for larger cars meaning car cannot be loaded/unloaded in the space and made worse by inconsiderate parking of others making it impossible to turn in and out without shunting forward and back several times. OK for Astra/Focus sized cars but tricky for an SUV/people carrier.

About the location

PENRYN

Falmouth 1 mile; Truro 9 miles.

One of the oldest market towns in Cornwall, the pretty port of Penryn boasts a wealth of historic architecture and harbour heritage with attractive granite buildings steeply sloping along the cobbled streets down to the sea. There’s a good choice of restaurants, cafes and pubs in the town, along with a museum offering free entry, and the tranquil Enys Gardens on the outskirts of the town, providing a range of grounds and a peaceful haven. Further along the Penryn River, just one mile towards the sea you’ll find the famous seaport of Falmouth, with a host of things to keep you entertained including harbour-side pubs and eateries offering spectacular views, stunning Blue Flag beaches and a bustling town centre. Visit the National Maritime Museum for a taste of Cornwall’s sea-faring history, or the fine Tudor fortress of Pendennis Castle, superb set gazing out to sea. You don’t have to venture far from Penryn to discover Cornwall’s many sights, delights and stunning coastline, and this is the perfect character base from which to see it all.
