“We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Quarry cottage as we usually do.”

Appropriate action had been taken to safeguard us and we had a great two weeks, thanks. Found several new places to visit in Cornwall, and enjoyed some old favourites.

“The cleaning at the cottage was not very good especially around the log fire.”

Burner thick dust around settees and under. Garden needed attention front door lock very hard to open with the key just one yale lock apart from that good location and we had a good holiday. Oh yeah the kettle broke but was replished with a new one very quick

We are pleased to hear that you had such a lovely holiday. Thank you for the helpful pointers on cleaning in these difficult times - we will attend to this. Sorry to hear about the front door lock and rear garden, these issues have not been highlighted by our recent guests Owner relations

“Beautiful setting and fantastic place to be.”

This was a lovely Christmas for myself my wife, our son and our little doggy. Peaceful and quiet.

“Comfortable, clean and welcoming cottage in a peaceful and historic village.”

The Seven Stars pub round the corner is a great spot to sit outside in the evening sunshine. There’s a handy village shop and the Falmouth passenger ferry which runs every half an hour is a fun way to reach all the amenities of the town. I would particularly recommend the lovely coast path walk around to Café Mylor which overlooks Mylor harbour.

“Not the cleanest of properties on arrival, bathroom not clean and previous guests towels behind the door.”

bathroom requires an update and extractor fan - signs of damp. flushing is a lovely quiet location, friendly locals and good pubs. ideal place to explore local and further afield areas.

We are very glad that you enjoyed the location of the cottage, the friendliness of the locals and the many amenities of Flushing. Thank you for the heads - up about the cleaning. We have obviously slipped up on this occasion and hope it did not spoil your holiday. Rest assured, the matter is in hand and at the first opportunity a deep clean will be done. Owner relations

“We did not have WiFi the entire time we were there.”

The owner tried to rectify the situation without success. He did offer us a small reimbursement for the inconvenience. It is difficult to plan a vacation without the internet to book activities. The WiFi problem seems to have happened before so not an isolated problem. The home is lovely and nicely situated. Would definitely book again if WiFi is corrected.

Thank you for taking the time to complete your feedback following your recent stay at Quarry Cottage. We have spoken with the owner who confirmed that following a fault with BT the wifi is now up and running and working perfectly. Owner relations

“The quirkiness added so much charm to the cottage.”

Surprisingly a lot larger than it looks from the outside. The homely touches (dog treats, dog blanket, cleaning products, Cornish biscuits, tea, coffee and fresh milk in the fridge) were a lovely added bonus. Good sized towels were also appreciated, a big bug bare of ours is these titchy towels you often get in hotels! Two great pubs in the village serving good food. Cornwall is very dog friendly. Falmouth and St Ives are must see visits.
