We had an enjoyable stay at Menehay and it's a comfortable and well-situated accommodation. We were a family of two couples and one teen. We had the larger of the beds and it was comfortable but the other couple said the double was quite small. It's light and airy upstairs with nice features and coastal tones. There is everything you need to cook aRead moret the property and two fridges, that we found helpful. We needed to wash our white towels every other day and felt they were a little small to cover a decent-sized adult. It was nice to have some milk on arrival with tea, coffee and a biscuit too :) Fabulous large TV screen and lots of seating, overall we really enjoyed the week here. We have been to Mawgan Porth before and this part of the area is quiet and easy access to everything with two car parking spaces. Hide

I wouldn't say it was fully appropriate for people with dogs, no gated outside area. Not outside tap for after the beach to wash them down or wetsuits etc which we have always had with any beach retreats properly we have booked. We felt the rooms were quite small for us personally, although appreciate the cosy feel. I would recommend for people whRead moreo don't have dogs or want a certain type of holiday- not ideal for bigger families. Hide
