Thank you so much for your lovely review Gary, we really do appreciate your positive feedback and we are super pleased you loved Pencroft!

Thank you Dave for your review. I'm a little concerned that you have given the actual property 3 stars yet talked mainly of the area and not the house itself. Part of the description of Pencroft on VRBO says the following: Carbis Bay beach is a 15-minute walk away down a footpath that leads directly downhill to the beach. Carbis Bay train station is a 10-minute walk away and it takes you regularly into St Ives along a very picturesque route. The trip into St Ives is just 5 minutes. There is a private enclosed garden where there is a mixture of morning sunshine and dappled shade. An ancient and protected tree provides much needed shade. You have the choice of a decked area with outdoor seating, landscaped gardens and a private fenced off lawned area too. We don't feel that this describes the outside area or the fact the beach isn't on the doorstep incorrectly. We are sorry you were affected by wind. We are unable to control the weather sadly! There is tall fencing around the garden to two sides which offers protection from wind but it would seem that it must have been breezy from the direction coming other than the fences or house which also provides protection from the wind. It may have been an idea to ask us about the local area before booking? Perhaps St Ives may have suited you better if you wanted lots of choice right on your doorstep? Carbis Bay has wonderful restaurants to choose from and we have a lot of information in our local Carbis Bay guide on our website too. It does seem harsh to penalise Pencroft with a 3 star review when it seems your biggest frustration was the area and its amenities.

Hello Rhian Thank you so much for your review and we are very pleased you loved the house. There is a lane that accesses the house and, at the entrance of the lane, it is steep. Low cars and cars with front wheel drive just need to be driven a little more carefully. As for the two spaces and turning around, we can understand how it is not a two berth car parking space, instead one behind the other having said that, we have had a landrover freelander parked there and our BMW X3 and I have been able to turn around in the space as long as the first car is parked at the top of the space. Yes, it does take a few more turns to be facing the other way but you do have the luxury of 2 parking spaces right outside the house after all. We have also mover our VW Amarok in the space and area there with a housekeepers car parked in the drive and successfully managed it. It just takes a little patience.

Thank you so much for your review, it's exceptionally detailed and I'm certain others would appreciate it hugely. I just wanted to say that we have a VW Amorok and have no problem getting up to Pencroft or negotiating the parking. It is a very large truck and we have also had guests stay with a VW transporter with no issues. I would counter by saying that it is down to how confident a person feels driving a large car and how used to negotiating lanes or parking bays they are. So, please don't be put off.
