Clean comfortable and good for dogs

We had a lovely, restful time. The living room space was warmer than a few years ago as the heating has been updated. Nice area for dogs to be outside Comfy, king-size bed. Quiet at night

Property was well kept, maybe make the air vent closeable on the conservatory by the sofas to help keep it warmer when electric rads are on in the colder months.

A lovely annexe

A lovely annexe in a great location, beautifully furnished and very comfortable, with a lovely courtyard. However, the only sitting area is the conservatory, which became unusable during the hottest part of the day as there were no fans provided at the property. We did request fans, but were told they were unavailable because they were out of stock. Given that the hot weather had been ongoing for some time, it would have been helpful if fans had been sourced before supplies ran out, as they would have made a significant difference to our comfort during our stay. This was the only downside to an otherwise enjoyable stay.

Love this little hideaway

This is our second visit and we have already booked again which says it all . So comfy and convienant location. The sofas and bed are fab , which isn't always the case in self catering .Easy walk to stunning Carbis Bay with all its amenities .Fab restuarants and cafe ,and the beach or to access coastal path in either direction . Buses at end of road and parking on site .Una resort just round corner where you can swim in pool and outside lido at a cost and use resturant which is worth a visit . Has privacy but can be wherever you wish within minutes . Love it .

3rd time of staying which speaks for itself

Lovely location , within wandering distance of Carbis bay and coastal path . Great to see shower has been refurbished and sofas and beds very comfortable . Only downside was attached property was occupied on this stay and they had a dog which was a bit barky , our own pup is not reactive thankfully so there wasn't an issue and thats not the fault of the property owners.That said it didnt distract us from enjoyment of stay and Cornwall turned its lights on for us and we were able to sit in the dog friendly garden ,so we had a beautiful week . Would return again , which is endorsement in itself.

Lovely hideaway gem

Loved location , property very comfy , although bathroom is small and could do with updating , albeit I appreciate it is a rustic property . Slight smell from septic tank with drain at end of garden but it was very hot when we stayed ,so appreciate that added to issue . Secure and private garden which we enjoyed and loved conservatory and sofas , which were very comfortable, which we do not always find in hol lets . All in all would recommend and will return .

Really nice and light location

It was a little difficult to find the house by using provided address in Google Maps. We have been routed to another house about 200 Meter away at the same road. The weather was very good. We have had breakfast and even diner outside on some days. And we enjoyed going to Carbis Bay Beach in the morning with our dog. Dogs have been allowed at the beach before 10 am and after 6 pm (at least end of June). But what we have missed was a pub nearby. Of course it was also a nice path at the coast to St.Ives where you can find so many good pubs, places to eas and nice small shops.

Peaceful Property

We loved staying at The Annex. It was myself and my husband and the location was perfect - outside of the hustle and bustle of the seaside towns but an easy walk into Carbis Bay or St Ives (about 45ish minutes into St Ives which is the perfect length for us but I reckon quite long for a family with small kids). We enjoyed sitting in the conservatory to relax during the evenings. We did have an issue with the shower not draining and someone came out same-day to fix it. It did start to clog back up the morning we left - perhaps something the management company can look at further as we head into the offseason. Overall, we'd definitely come back and would definitely recommend a stay here.
