A lot to love but needs some TLC. Our second visit to this property. We love the layout of the bungalow and the location which is a great base for exploring the surrounding area. Its in a very quiet area so we always had a good night sleep on a comfortable bed. Although the property appears to be clean on the surface it desperately needs a deep cleRead morean and the kitchen needs a complete refurb. It was dusty inside the property and we noticed a lot of cobwebs. We love St Merryn and the property is within walking distance to all the local amenities. We love the Farmers Arms, delicious pub grub and polite and friendly staff with a lovely beer garden. We visited some fabulous dog friendly beaches and enjoyed some lovely walks. Hide

The local bakery is well known and sells all you need for a day out with a choice of rolls that you can chose the filling for, all types of pasties and sandwiches plus cakes and coffee's. There iRead mores also a local store for newspapers etc plus general groceries, beers, wines and spirits open from 7.30am till 7pm. There is also a filling station. Hide

Whilst comfortable and clean, some areas could do with painting such as the skirtings, there are several carpet threads which look unsightly. No sharp knives or scissors.
