The Love Shack is a lovely place to stay. You couldn't possibly get any closer to Maenporth Beach if you tried! You literally just cross the road and you're on the beach!The property is clean and tidy with all the facilities neccesary. The host was excellent with his communication and help.We loved being here and have booked up again for next year!

We really enjoyed our holiday here with our family. The location is very nice, especially the small cove with the sea just in front of the house. It is a pleasant place to relax, and you can also enjoy activities such as paddleboarding.The small wooden house is well located. It is simple and reminds us of the bungalows you often find at holiday campsites. It had everything we needed for a comfortable family stay.

This review is unfair and exaggerated, as demonstrated by Guest Reviews following this one, but it does sound like The Love Shack needs some love. When I'm made aware of issues, I deal with them promptly. Otherwise, the property is as described - one step up from camping. Please read ALL details thoroughly before booking, including the proximity to the sea and resulting minor damp issues, if not kept ventilated. Thank you.
