  • Two inviting bedrooms, each with a stylish en-suite
  • Stroll to the beach and across the causeway to St Michael’s Mount

Property code: OC-P00805

Marazion is perhaps best-known for its proximity to the island fortress of St Michael’s Mount, the two linked at low tide by an ancient, cobbled causeway. But this historic market town has much to delight those who stay awhile, including high-quality restaurants and cafes, a selection of galleries and gift shops and a safe, sandy main beach lapped by the clear waters of Mount’s Bay, one of the South West’s premier water sports locations. Less than 6 miles east, busy Penzance is home to sub-tropical gardens and the UK’s largest Art Deco saltwater lido, while idyllic St Ives is 9 miles north.

This stylish and contemporary property is in a quiet residential area just a stroll from the beach and village centre. Timber cladding to the upper level gives a barn-style look to the exterior, while inside, everything is sophisticated and finished to the highest standard, making this a holiday home which, though family-friendly, could also be ideal for two couples to share. On the ground floor, there’s a light, bright kitchen/diner with every home-from-home essential plus extras such as USB sockets. Contemporary flooring, a large L-shaped sofa and a wood burner feature in the lounge, where there’s also a Smart TV with soundbar and floor-to-ceiling sliding doors that flood the room with light. A cloakroom completes the layout on this level. Upstairs, there’s a hotel-like sense of luxury, with two bedrooms each boasting ample storage space, a Smart TV, USB sockets and a super-king-size bed which could, if preferred, be unlinked and made up as twins instead. There’s an en-suite shower room off one of the bedrooms and a similarly styled en-suite bathroom off the other, complete with a spa bath with a rainfall shower above; both have an LED mirror, shaver socket and integrated Bluetooth speaker.

The property stands back from the roadway and has privacy fencing to the front. A gate to one side gives access into a fully-enclosed rear garden, where there’s a well-tended lawn and patio area, BBQ, table and chairs and an outdoor shower – perfect for rinsing off wetsuits and sandy feet!

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 super-king-size zip-and-link (can be arranged as twins on request), and 1 twin zip-and-link (can be arranged as a super-king-size on request

A really well equipped and comfortable property with everything you need. Garden needs attention and we were unable to sit outside due to lack of furniture.The access to the drive can be a bit challenging if youve got aN SUV or a van as opposite the resident has a disabled parking bay which makes it tight to turn in or out without manoeuvring back Read moreand forth.

We really enjoyed our stay and the inside of the property was beautiful. Lovely features such as the use of driftwood as shelves and the bannisters and the Bluetooth mirror in the bathroom was a hit. We played some of the board games and enjoyed the cream tea provided. Just enough tea and coffee to last the week too! We did find the oven was realRead morely slow to cook for some reason. Hide

You need to check that light bulbs are working as several were out throughout the property. The one in our bedroom was too high to reach to even change ourselves. You have a washer and outside line but no pegs. No change of bedding or towels half way through and we didnt have the facilities to wash and dry ourselves. This is the first time in 10 yeRead morears visiting Cornwall this has happened and is unacceptable. There were no instructions for the cooker. The back garden is poorly kept, has weeds coming through the artificial grass, neighbours trees growing over the fence and is pretty grubby windows. We were unable to use barbecue as it is very rusty and had a bag of rubbish in it. Only 2 high rusty seats which meant we couldnt use the garden. Its clear from other reviews that they received cream teas and we received a pack of biscuits which is the worst welcome pack we have had. Nowhere to hang coats as this had clearly been broken but never put back up which was just two screws but left inside the cupboard downstairs. This meant our coats smelled of cooking as they had to be placed on chairs in kitchen.The 5 coat hangers in a talllboy is not enough for 2 people for two weeks so we lived out of suitcases for the duration of our stay. There were clearly enough space in both bedrooms for proper wardrobes. Again this is the worst we have experienced with other cottage providers. You have a soundbar and speaker yet the TV is not even HD. The whole house had cobwebs throughout especially in the wooden lampshades, around the fire, on the walls, ceilings and beams. Finally please invest in proper pillows as they were cheap and uncomfortable. We The amount of money we paid was a lot for a disappointing stay. It seems that too much emphasis is on aesthetics rather than basic comfort, and amenities. It seems like a minimum in and maximum out mentality is at the forefront of this cottage. Hide

Lovely modern house with all mod cons. Very well equipped with everything that would be needed in the kitchen. Welcome pack of scones, jam and cream was a lovely touch. Also fresh flowers on the table. In a good position not far from the centre of Marazion. Takes about 15 minutes to walk but uphill coming back I managed it although Im not good at Read morehills! Also walked over to St Michaels Mount. We were very lucky with the weather. Would definitely recommend and would stay there again. Hide

Sorry to say that we were very disappointed with this property and do not consider it as value for the money we paid. There were numerous problems, notably the spa bath was unusable as the pop up plug was u/s, front bedroom window could not be fully closed leaving a gap which was not good with the strong winds that were encountered during our visitRead more - plugged gap with kitchen roll. Kitchen plinth heater had been switched off, this made that area very cold. Eventually found isolator to switch it on. We were not confident enough to use the freezer section of the fridge freezer as we found defrosted ice cube bags and the circulating fan was iced up. During the stay we also became aware of there being several loose balusters at the top and bottom of the stairs. Owner did pay a visit at the beginning of our stay, we pointed out the problems which we had found at that time, being the window and freezer, he did look at the window but could not fix the problem and for the freezer he said it needed defrosting. In general we consider that the property now needs a little bit of TLC to repair the cracks and flaked plaster and redecoration. Have given a 'good' ratings for equipment and comfort, these would have been 'very good' if everything was fully functional. Hide
