The Shack is a wonderful place, with great views. Right near the beach . Clean, tidy and everything you needed for your holiday. We will be booking again

Rated by Mrs Hiscock reviewed on 5th February 2016

This was our fourth time at The Shack as we enjoy the relaxing views and being so close to the sea. It is also an ideal base for walking and travelling to other locations in Cornwall.

Rated by Mrs Nash reviewed on 3rd February 2016

Excellent location, so close to the beach and lovely coastal walks. Really appreciated the fact that everywhere we went was so dog friendly. Just perfect, thank you!

Rated by Mrs Shears reviewed on 24th May 2015

Rated by Mrs Simpson reviewed on 22nd February 2015

This property is in a lovely location, just a short walk downhill to the beach and local shops. The Shack had everything you need for a holiday including games for children. I would definitely recommend this property and would stay here again.

Rated by Mrs Gibson reviewed on 17th August 2014

A fantastic property in a great location.

Rated by Mr Chiverton reviewed on 27th July 2014

A very quiet location and the property so lovely. Newquay and Padstow are a few minutes drive away. It was really nice to sit outside the cottage in the evening and watch the rabbits.

Rated by Ms Fowles reviewed on 8th June 2014

An excellent location to explore Cornwall's Atlantic coastline. Very secluded setting with a superb south facing outlook and pleasant short walk down to the beach.

Rated by Mr Wilkes reviewed on 18th May 2014

The situation of The Shack was delightful and the rabbits playing in the garden were lovely to watch. The beds were very comfortable so we slept well thanks to the Cornish air!! Watergate Beach being so near was lovely too - a lovely place for a game of 'footie'. We loved sitting on the verandah in the warm sunshine - then at night we were able to enjoy the stars - felt we could almost reach out and touch them they were so bright.

Rated by Mrs Tipler reviewed on 6th March 2014

The Shack is secluded yet only a 5 minute walk away from a lovely beach and a short drive to coastal walks. We shall definitely look forward to going again.

Rated by Mrs Nash reviewed on 8th December 2013

A well equipped holiday home in a great location. Lovely views across countryside, and a short walk to the village centre.

Rated by Mrs Everett reviewed on 11th September 2013

This was our second visit to The Shack and certainly will not be our last, we look forward to returning next year. Nothing to dislike at all, it was exactly as described. It is very convenient for the beach and walking and was very dog friendly. It's location is also private whilst still being close to all the local amenities.

Rated by Mrs Limbert reviewed on 5th August 2013

A well presented property just as described. Located in a quiet area of Mawgan Porth with easy access to local shops, pub/restaurants. A delightful village with a very friendly population. The Shack is situated within easy driving distances for Cornish Tourism attractions. Beaches are first class as are the coastal walks. A most enjoyable holiday break! Even some bad weather did not distract us.

Rated by Mr Skeldon reviewed on 21st May 2013

We loved the location of property, close to the beach.

Rated by Mr Pepper reviewed on 7th October 2012

Lovely location, great scenery and good surf. Mawgan Porth is a pretty town, great for families. We loved the location of the cottage looking down on the town and the scenery from the garden was superb. Cottage is very well equipped. Great place for a family holiday.

Rated by Mrs Fowler reviewed on 11th September 2012

The cottage was in a fantastic location to walk to the beach with our surf boards yet retain the privacy we love. Even our 2 teenagers were happy to come with us on this holiday. The cottage was just as described in the brochure and had everything we needed.

Rated by Mrs Limbert reviewed on 25th July 2012

The location of the property is only as a five minute walk to the beach, making it an ideal location. Very dog friendly, both the The Shack and Cornwall in general.

Rated by Mr Watkins reviewed on 27th October 2011

Very nice view from the side of the garden. Only 500m to beach & restaurant and great hiking along the coast track.

Rated by Mr Loennecke-Gabel reviewed on 3rd October 2011

We loved our stay at The Shack. It's a real gem, and the location is great. Excellent contact with the owners beforehand.

Rated by Mr Jackson reviewed on 21st September 2011

The location of the accommodation is excellent - only five minutes to the lovely beach! Gorgeous panoramic views from the garden, very quiet! Every home comfort included! All in all, it was enjoyed by the whole family. Cornwall is very dog friendly and our dog gives a huge paw up! We would recommend it to anyone!
