What a beautiful house in a wonderful location. So well equipped, and great for a group of four older ladies to relax and spend a fantastic weekend together. We were warm and cozy and the property was spotlessly clean with plenty of towels, and very well equipped. Thoughtful touches like the basket of throws in the lounge were appreciated, andRead more having a bathroom for each bedroom is just fab. Would happily stay again. Hide

Its all about the view. A party of two had an excellent week. Location exceptionally quiet, bed and bedding very comfy, lovely big towels and super en-suite to master bedroom. Kitchen great selection of equipment and very communal with big open plan a joy to cook in. For me really needed a tumble dryer. Items like salt & pepper not provided and limRead moreited other supplies. Missed not having a mirror in bedroom, limited in having to use wardrobe mirror in dressing room/ cupboard. Key safe is ridiculously placed and very very hard to access and use. The 2 x 2 seat sofas ideal for 2. But I cant see how this seating would work for any more than 4 people. 2 great comfy chairs separately and well placed to enjoy the view. Would recommend the rental for up to 4 people, due to sofa seating. Unless youre not bothered about sitting together as a group. Had an issue and management company very efficient and helpful. Response from Travel Chapter - Thank you for your kind comments regarding the comfort of the bedrooms and the well-equipped kitchen. We are sorry that you feel the seating to be inadequate for 8 visitors, as you quite rightly point out there are 2 x 2 seater settees plus 3 armchairs. There is also an additional armchair located in the bedroom to provide seating available for all. On the strength of your comments the key safe has been relocated. Hide

Beautiful and well appointed cottage above Porthcurno beach and close to the Minack theatre. Amazing views, stunning location, beach just a short 5 minute walk down the hill. Good ratio of bathroom's to bedrooms which suited us as a group of friends walking the costal path. Would highly recommend this place.

An exceptional property in beautiful surroundings, loved the views. So many walks, to the beach, Minack. We all enjoyed staying in Bracken Bank, so comfortable, the owner has obviously given a lot of thought into design, furnishings making the house welcoming, in fact best property weve stayed in over last five years. We enjoyed Sunday lunch in SeRead morennen. Visit of Sausage the pheasant on the patio was good and we experienced fantastic sunrise across the bay. Hide

Bracken Bank is a fantastic home with stunning views. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back in the future. The house is very well equipped, everything you may need has been considered. We had a home delivery from Sainsburys and we ordered our Gousto for a few meals during our stay. Cooking in the kitchen overlooking PorthcurRead moreno beach was a pleasure. There is a large American Style Fridge freezer and also two under counter fridges. The stairs lead down to a large bedroom, shower room and kitchenette. A great base for exploring Cornwall. Hide
