“We had an incredible stay at Five Elements!”

The cottage is absolutely beautiful, a true home away from home with everything one could wish for. The owners were incredibly accommodating, and there was plenty of space for us and our two dogs. The views were breathtaking, and we especially enjoyed the beautiful log burner and hot tub. The central location allowed us to easily explore the entire south coast of Cornwall, and the local walks with our dogs were nothing short of amazing. We can't wait to come back again.

“The cottage is beautiful with a serene surrounding, secluded and private so just ...”

The cottage is beautiful with a serene surrounding, secluded and private so just what we were looking for It was excellently equipped with everything you needed and could want And the cottage itself is beautiful and quirky However the hot tub was a big disappointment for us as we always book somewhere with a hot tub and this was the worst hot tub we have ever had in the most expensive property we have ever stayed Alot of the jets don't work and for such a beautiful accommodation that sleeps 7 I would have expected a top of the range hot tub or spa bath However it is a basic range hot tub with only 1 pump attached when it can have 2 We walk in excess of 20,000 steps everyday and usually make extreme use of a hot tub It does not comfortably sit 4 people let alone 7 A few things bothered me that I noticed which could make this property even better, as it feels like the love is missing since the award was won in 2017 I had to clean the grill before using it as it was dirty, there was a disposable razor in top of the mirror from Previous people, the tops of the wardrobes are filthy discovered when we got our bags down at the end of the holiday so I wasn't looking for dust And the artwork around the house is not from the local area but from Zealand which I guess is a connection to the owners but it would have been nice to have local artwork Overall we enjoyed our stay very much it was a lovely private location with lots of great information for local walks and activities which we did, the cottage is a stunning building and you probably won't be disappointed

“Five elements cottage is absolutely beautiful, it was everything I expected and more.”

We were looking for a really memorable accommodation and holiday to celebrate my 30th birthday and this was it! It is clean, well equipped and well maintained. It is also quiet and peaceful with a gorgeous view yet a great location to explore all areas within a short drive. We will highly recommend to all!

“Five Elements Cottage is a nice property in a great location, handy for many places.”

It has a lovely kitchen and bathrooms. However, some more details of the layout and a floor plan on the website would be useful. For instance, it would be good to know that the utility (where the freezer is located) is at the opposite end of the cottage to the kitchen, and that the ground floor bathroom is not near any bedroom (including the ground floor twin, which is directly off the living room). The stairs are steep and there are steps up or down- some of them high- to access every room, as all the rooms are on different levels. Also, there is a long flight of shallower steps plus 5 steep steps down to the front door from the car park, which makes moving heavy luggage a real task. None of this is really clear from the description. I don’t think this cottage would be suitable for those with reduced mobility, as even the ground floor bedroom and bathroom are both down two steps from the living room. It would be great to have a welcome folder in the cottage with recommendations for local eating, places to drink etc, and instructions for the various appliances. This is the first place we have stayed that hasn’t had such a folder. Also, the hot tub is a great addition, but all of the jets do not appear to be working, so it maybe needs servicing.

- Shelley, March 2023

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback. The cottage is a 400 year old cob building, which we restored back in 2015/16. There is only so much we could do regarding the layout and stairs/steps. We do mention this in the description, noted at the end. We apologise if you missed this. Since COVID, we have attached the welcome folder to the emails we send out to guests before their stay. Granted, a written version will be beneficial to those who prefer to have a physical copy. In response to your feedback, we will reproduce the welcome folder so there is one on hand in the property. The folder with user manuals for appliances etc are kept in a drawer in the utility room. We will make sure to mention this in the welcome email. We are sorry to hear that the jets on the hot tub didn’t appear to be working (we have since checked and in fact two jets are not working, therefore we have called in the hot tub maintenance). We hoped you would have mentioned this earlier in your stay when you had massage treatments with us; this could have been resolved sooner and you could have enjoyed the hot tub to the fullest. All the best, The Five Elements Team Property Owner

“Had a lovely relaxing stay, spacious rooms comfortable beds.”

Lovely cosy living room with log burner. Would highly recommend staying here you won't be disappointed.

Barry February 2023

“Fantastic cottage, clean, spacious and well equipped.”

Sari the host was so helpful and also runs yoga / massage sessions which was brilliant. Would definitely recommend!

Susan January 2023

“Lovely surprise of the christmas decorations, great central heating and comfortable bedding extra wide beds upstairs with plenty of wardrobes and chests .”

The hot tub was a bonus for long winter days. The cottage was very spacious with plenty of room for guests. Really enjoyed our stay . The gardens are very large with lots of outdoor furniture .The owner was a friendly nice helpful person . The hot tub area is surrounded by paved wall around and if you have a dog that part is enclosed so it was good for our dog to have his little walk about and stay safe.

Philip December 2022

“There was a problem with the heating on arrival, due to weather conditions.”

We contacted the owner, she responded immediately. The problem was sorted the same evening.very helpful and very pleasant to talk to. Would love to spend Christmas at the cottage! Thank you

- Philip, December 2022

Thank you for your feedback, I’m so glad that you had a great time, we were more than happy to provide you with heaters and extra logs to keep you warm and cosy while we quickly fixed the issue. Luckily we were able to resolve this within 2 hours, the problem turned out to be a frozen gas valve due to the weather. We hope to welcome you back sometime in the near future! Property Owner
Denise November 2022

“Beautiful cottage in lovely location,owners very good at communicating.”

Very well equipped to a high standard. The only thing I would highlight is that there are a lot of steps both outside and within the cottage which could be problematic for anyone with mobility issues.

- Denise, November 2022
Lisa October 2022

“Lovely cottage and beautiful surroundings within reach of great local beaches, attractions and places of interest.”

Justyna August 2022

“The cottage and its facilities are absolutely fantastic, we really enjoyed the hot tub, huge kitchen for food prep and barbecue.”

The beds were fantastic and comfortable for a decent night's sleep and the location is very central, close to local amenities and the A30 to get to different towns. On the other hand we were disappointed by the delayed responsiveness of the host as sometimes it would take more than a day for them to get back to us for requests especially as we had infants with us. The house needed additional cleaning, we found a half eaten dog bowl under the sofa and there a stagnant smell of dog in the sofa with hairs sticking to clothes after sitting there. The bathroom door upstairs could have done with a lock too. The steps going down to the property are stoned and pose a health risk as some of us lost grip on a few occasions. Watch out for low ceilings too in some places! On the whole it was a lovely stay however feedback to the host/property owners would be to be more accessible and follow up when checking in just to make sure guests have what they need. The house is lovely and the additional touch of service going above and beyond would be icing on the cake.

- Justyna, August 2022

We would like to thank you for taking the time to leave feedback, especially highlighting the positives but also drawing our attention to your individual issues. Regarding following up after check in, we are usually around to meet and greet. We apologise for our slower than usual response to communication. It was bank holiday weekend and we were on and off site in poor reception areas, which is why each of your requests were dealt with at the end of that particular day. In regards to cleaning and cleanliness, we had new staff doing the changeover and this will be raised with them. Sincerest apologies this was missed. Property Owner
Ali August 2022

“BBQ and oven had to be deep cleaned before we could use them.”

Hot tub took 2 days to cool down enough before we could use it, then it rained so couldn't use it because it had no pergola or any type of roof over it. This was really disappointing because the hot tub was what made us choose this property over others. The cottage was in a great location and other facilities were good. We enjoyed our stay but still feel like i could of got somewhere alot cheeper that didn't have a hot tub because we only used it once due to the above

- Ali, August 2022
Anne May 2022

“The cottage is lovely and we really enjoyed the private outside space and hot tub.”

If the wi fi could be improved that would be good especially for teenage guests. There could be better instructions for the heating (we couldn’t find any) but we did use the log burner instead, we also donated a bbq as the fire pit/bbq one would be quite difficult to use as it was so low. Overall none of this would have prevented us from booking so are just options to make it even nicer. Would recommend regardless as the area and Cornwall is just great to visit.

- Anne, May 2022

We appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback. We have added information regarding how to use the central heating to the email we send out. The BBQ was in the shed due to the weather, sincerest apologies. Since then we have bought a new BBQ and cover that stay on the patio outside the kitchen. The wifi is as fast as it can be for our area. This will be upgraded soon according to BT! We are so happy you enjoyed your holiday. Many thanks. Property Owner
Stephen March 2022

“This is a delightful old cottage in a very quiet location.”

Very well furnished and equipped. We went with our two small dogs and had a lovely time.

- Stephen, March 2022
Tiffany February 2022

“Lovely cottage, really pretty set in a lovely location.”

Cottage was extremely comfortable, really enjoyed putting the fire on and the hot tub was a great addition. Kitchen was a good size for the 5 of us, with plenty of workspace to prepare dinners and a great size dining table. Utility room was really handy for hanging wet coats, drying dog towels, it also had an overspill fridge which was great to store all our drinks. Great location, the Millers Arms in Mithian did a great Sunday roast - booking essential. The nearby Cyder farm was a great afternoon out and thoroughly enjoyed sampling the various cyder.

- Tiffany, February 2022
Colin January 2022

“Beautiful property and surroundings.”

Nice and peaceful. Will absolutely be booking again. Only negative is the road into the property. As my car is low, coming in and out caused damage to the underneath.

- Colin, January 2022
Sally December 2021

“We had a wonderful stay at Five Elements Cottage for a family Christmas, the extra touches with a Christmas Tree and few decorations were great.”

The location of this cottage is perfect, very easy access to all main routes, and also close enough to reach wonderful coastal walks and villages, St Agnes was lovely and visited a few times plus if in need of more amenities not far to Truro. There were 7 of us (adults/teenagers) which worked well with the sleeping arrangements, a little snug in the lounge though but we managed. The Hot Tub was an excellent addition and one of the reasons we chose to stay here, and can imagine this lovely private spot to be great in the summer too. It does have steps down to the cottage and lots of steps inside too, so to be aware of this with much younger children or elderly relatives. Sari the owner was excellent with all requests, very friendly and quick to sort anything out if needed. The WIFI was a bit intermittent which was mentioned on previous reviews. The week we had here was excellent and exactly what we were looking for and would definitely return again to this cottage and the area.

- Sally, December 2021

“We stayed in December it was beautiful, everything you want and need.”

Was so relaxing, we just didn’t want to leave. We would love to come back and stay again.

Lindsey October 2021

“The cottage was lovely very clean and all you the kitchen was very well equiped, beds really comfy.”

Its in a perfect location to visit all areas of Cornwall. However there were a lot of steps inside the property and low celings we had an elderly person with us with poor eyesight and a couple of tall men that kept catching their heads. The steps down to the property were no problem until it rained then they became very slippy. We did have a lovely holiday but these are a few snags we found.

- Lindsey, October 2021
Susan July 2021

“Location was quiet and peaceful away from the crowded beaches.”

The cottage was very well equipped with hot tub and BBQ and plenty of outside chairs. The weather was very hot but the cottage was cool especially the lounge. We all slept well. Special thanks to Sari for ringing after we left to say that we had left 2 bags behind. We were able to return to collect them. A great holiday enjoyed by all.

- Susan, July 2021
Hazel July 2021

“Nice cottage with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.”

Cosy living area and a large dining table for family meals. Nice patio area with plenty of seating and we enjoyed the hot tub. The property is part of a complex of a few other properties but still felt very private. All spotlessly clean. Pretty much everything we needed in kitchen although a couple of smaller saucepans would be nice and there were loads of champagne flutes and not many wine glasses which seemed odd. Two fridges and a freezer which was great. Great location, close to st Agnes which had the most beautiful beach. All in all a pleasant stay with just a few minor niggles - As per another review we did struggle a little as we have a 16 month old and the floors are quite up and down so we spent a lot of time chasing her to stop her falling down steps. Would be helpful if listing mentioned this, pretty much every room has a step or two into it. A stair gate to go between lounge and hallway would be useful so we could have caged her in! The beds and pillows were feeling a little tired and weren't particularly comfortable, although they did have good quality bedding. The upstairs bathroom shower area would benefit from a refresh, some tiles looked a bit rusty or something. Would benefit from a tumble drier or at least another clothes airer or washing line as difficult to dry a whole load. All minor things really which didn't detract from an enjoyable stay

- Hazel, July 2021

Thank you for your lovely feedback and we are glad that you enjoyed your stay. We can confirm that there is now a stairgate in the utility room for guests to use during their stay. Property Owner
David June 2021

“We were disappointed the cottage details did not mention the amount of steps inside the cottage and that it was on different levels.”

We had an 18 months old baby in our party and it was difficult. We also were concerned to find that there were no food recycling bins and the only recycling available was for glass and cardboard surely in these climate conscious times this should be provided not all going to landfill. Perhaps the owners could rethink this point. The property was very well equipped and very clean.

- David, June 2021
Hazel June 2021

“Lovely cottage in a very quiet location.”

Shops and pub within reasonable distance. Very comfortable overall the only down side for us was the wifi. The wifi was very poor and we were seldom able to access it during the day. In the evening it would re-appear about 2030 but was quite slow.

- Hazel, June 2021

“Beautiful house and a quite spot with view over field with Jersey cows.”

Enjoyed the hot tub and evening around the fire pit. Kitchen fully stocked to enable some great cooking and family fun. We wanted to eat out a few times great local taxi company to get you the few miles into St Agnes.

- Denise, August 2020
David July 2020

“This cottage was superb.”

Fixtures and equipment all top rate. Five adults and two children had a fabulous time. Can highly recommend Five Elements Cottage. Only missing item was the bike/surfboard storage room advertised, but that may have been available at one of the other properties had we asked. Didn’t need it, so didn’t enquire. Will undoubtedly visit again.

- David, July 2020
Ben March 2020

The cottage is wonderful and the support and the range of activities we were offered were fantastic. I highly recommend a break away to the five elements.

Lisa November 2019

“Five Elements Cottage is a lovely holiday home.”

The rooms are large enough to accommodate all of the people that could stay there but small enough to feel cosy. The beds are very comfortable as are the sofas. The property is well equipped, the separate utility room was very welcome, as it meant we could enter through a rear door and dry our dogs properly before entering the main house. The jacuzzi bath downstairs was a delight and the hot tub outside was fab, especially when it rained! The location is idyllic, very quiet and even though you are near other properties, you don't feel overlooked at all. The grounds available to walk in are very pretty and enclosed. Our bulldogs loved the stream. The only niggle we had was that there was no salt and pepper or oil left for the use of guests. This has been available at other cottages we have stayed at but if we had known in advance, we would have brought them with us.

- Lisa, November 2019

“Excellent property in an excellent location.”

Made for a great surpirse weekend away for my father in-laws birthday :-) Easy to find with the excellent instructions sent by the owners. We had a group of 7 6 Adults, and our 2 year old son and also our 11 year old Chocolate Labrador and everyone had a great time. Exceptionally clean and really top notch facilities. The Hot Tub was great to sit out in during the evening and look at the stars :-)

Kate February 2019

“This is a must book holiday!”

! So comfortable and relaxing. The owners are really lovely, we arrived late due to bad weather and they came to say hello and hoped we were ok. That was all we saw of them, friendly and not intrusive at all. The location is amazing, so close to beautiful beaches and stunning walks. Perfect for exploring or staying put! The cottage is beautiful!!! So welcoming and comfortable. A very well equipped kitchen too! The tub it a great bonus, after walking all day! Also just for relaxing in. We enjoyed it that much in a week in cold, wet February that we would like to visit in the summer. It would be even more stunning!

- Kate, February 2019
Paul January 2019

We will definitely go again it is perfect just to relax and is also a perfect base to go out and discover what Cornwall has to offer.

Stephen November 2018

“Great cottage, our second time at Five Elements and a good time was had by all including the dog !”

We would highly recommend the experience and no doubt will visit again. The owners have done a great job with making it homely, comfortable and relaxing. Lots of walks on the beach and along the cliff paths and beautiful scenery all around any time of the year.

- Stephen, November 2018
Colin July 2018

“The cottage is great although we had virtually non-stop sunshine so we are maybe a little biased!”

Every meal there was taken outside and we found everything we needed at the cottage. We particularly wanted to be close to,St Agnes so it’s situation was great. It was very peaceful and quiet. We would definitely recommend it but you need to be reasonably able bodied as there are many steps down and up from the property. Great holiday, fabulous beaches, good food, would happily return.

- Colin, July 2018
M June 2018

“Five elements cottage was a nice quiet place to stay in Cornwall.”

The Farmhouse and Studio are also holiday lets so some noise was expected but this is a rural part of the county so most times all you hear is birdsong and a local cock crowing. The road to the cottage is unpaved and very rough and bumpy so we were glad of our four wheel drive. The Cottage is at the side of steep hill so it can get windy at the cottage even if its warm at sea level. We did an onsite Yoga class with the owner which was excellent. We used the hot tub a few times which was a lovely added feature to the cottage. The cottage was clean and tidy when we arrived. We cooked all our meals in the well equipped kitchen and there are two sets of tongs in the drawer now in response to customer feedback. We did not use the BBQ but it comes with a full set of BBQ tools. The freezer and washing machine are in the utility room and all we longed for was a tumble dryer as the weather was not great for drying our cycling kit outside . But there is an rack to hang clothes on that can be put up indoors and outdoors. Our main issue with this cottage was the interior design which we would have liked to have known about in the marketing brief from Sykes purely for health and safety reasons. The doors frames upstairs are very very low and there are some steep steps up to the two double bedrooms and one step down to the bathroom and single bedroom off the upstairs landing. We kept banging our heads or missing a step. We are not tall but anyone over six feet will struggle at this cottage. Likewise toddlers would find the steep staircase and steps from the lounge to the dining room and then again from there to the kitchen difficult to navigate. For this reason we would not rent this cottage again.

Karen May 2018

“It would have been nice if the owners had come and introduced themselves.”

Its the first cottage that ive stayed in and never met the people who own it. We only had one issue the front door wouldnt unlock from the inside so my daughter had to go out the kitchen patio door to climb over a small wall to unlock it. It would have been hard work for an older couple. Again if we had seen the owners we could have told them. All in all we had a lovely stay at Five Elements Cottage.

- Karen, May 2018
Louise April 2018

“5 elements cottage if a beautiful house in a very peaceful setting.”

We had a wonderful relaxing holiday. Our dog was very well catered for with a safe enclosed garden and and a handy field for those early and late short walks. The hot tub and a super addition, one we didn’t think we needed but turned out we did taking a dip most days helped us unwind. Great pubs and restaurants not too far away plus a superb take away pizza in St Agnes. Thank you Sykes for offering this gem!

The property

This detached cottage is situated in the village of St Agnes, set in a peaceful seaside location and only 6.9 miles from Truro.

Ideal for a family or a group of friends, everyone can come together to enjoy the village attractions, before returning to this lovely holiday home.

On the ground floor, you will be welcomed by a homely kitchen, where you can wander outside onto the patio area at your own leisure after dishing up some deliciously appetising meals.

There is also a utility room, a dining room with a feature fireplace and a cosy sitting room with woodburner for those cooler evenings.

The four bedrooms have been arranged with the family in mind.

Two super king-size doubles provide a peaceful sleeping environment, along with a single room and a ground floor twin room so everyone can benefit from a good night’s sleep.

The bathrooms are thoughtfully designed, from the wet room to the ground floor bathroom, which even comes complete with a signature Jacuzzi bath.

Outside, you can relax in the hot tub admiring your surroundings, or make the most of the long summer nights whilst enjoying a BBQ by the fire pit.

Just a short drive will take you to the beaches of Cornwall, whilst St Agnes also offers a choice of excellent restaurants and pubs to suit all.
