    “We enjoyed our stay but it was not quite what we were expecting.”

    The house is very well equipped with plenty of space but it is on the corner of the main road through the village and the traffic is quite noisy. It was impossible to sleep with the windows open. Also, the 'garden' is a small paved area and the 'summerhouse' is a shed containing beach equipment. It's a bit of a trek to the beach and more so up the hill coming back! Had I seen a map of the position of the house before I booked I would not have chosen to stay there. We had a good time, it was just ...

    The house is very well equipped with plenty of space but it is on the corner of the main road through the village and the traffic is quite noisy. It was impossible to sleep with the windows open. Also, the 'garden' is a small paved area and the 'summerhouse' is a shed containing beach equipment. It's a bit of a trek to the beach and more so up the hill coming back!

    Thank you for your review Jan, we are very pleased you enjoyed your stay and found the house well-equipped with plenty of space. All our guests have been delighted with Carpe Diem, giving it top marks and returning regularly. We can appreciate that the central village location may be slightly noisier than a secluded countryside location however, the joy of being in the village, close to the shops and amenities and being just a short walk to the beach has been something our guests absolutely love! As the photographs highlight the garden/patio is paved and we explain that the summerhouse is used to store the beach equipment that is provided for our guests. The beauty of North Cornwall is that the villages sweep down to the beach, therefore, inevitably, there will always be an incline back to the village. Glad you had a good time overall and wishing you all the best for future holidays. Property Owner

About the location

CRANTOCK

Newquay 4.5 miles.

Crantock is a small Cornish village, just a short walk from the beach, close to the popular resort of Newquay. If you want to escape the crowds, yet still be close to the action, this is the place to be. There's stunning countryside all around and lots of pretty villages to explore; however, it is the coast that dominates. Enjoy superb walks along the coastal path over dramatic cliff-tops, or magnificent surfing on beaches stretching from Watergate Bay in the North to Fistral beach in the centre of Newquay and on down the coast. There are a number of golf courses in the area, as well as National Trust properties, traditional pubs and outstanding restaurants. Newquay itself is a visitor's paradise with a wide variety of shops, pubs and restaurants, plus attractions such as the Sea Life Centre, Newquay Zoo and nearby Dairyland and Eden Project.
