Dale Cottage, Crantock

Charming and tasteful semi-detached cottage. Unusually spacious although the kitchen is a little cramped. No door on attic bedroom. Superb location for the best beach in the UK and pretty village centre with convenience store. A bit noisy in the morning due to being opposite the bus stop. Excellent wifi. Mobile phone reception almost non-existent but a land line is provided for guest use. Recycling arrangements are somewhat random. The two pubs are not great but there is a small cafe-restaurant opposite that is sometimes open in the evening. Parking outside is difficult so parking permits are provided for spaces about 5 minutes walk away. Overall, very pleasant and recommendable.

Dale cottage is as beautiful as the photos show. It is in the heart of the village, close to two pubs and walking distance to the famous Crantock beach. The good: Beautiful, very clean, large, 4 bedrooms, quiet location but a great spot to be for touring around all of Cornwall. WiFi is great! Laundry washer on site. Beautiful, peaceful backyard. Bathrooms are very clean and modern. Parking spot is secured for the cottage. Large fridge and the kitchen is well supplied to make meals for 6 people. Morrison's grocery store is very close which has everything one needs. The manager of the property, Tracey, was very friendly and helpful! Was able to stop by in minutes if we needed anything. The not-so-great: The furniture coverings are tired. A bit stained and in need of replacement. A couple of the cabinets in the kitchen have a damp smell when you open them. The cottage connected to us had dogs which is fine but my daughter had some trouble getting to sleep at night. We were on the top floor and didn't hear a thing but she did complain about noise from the dogs next door as she tried to go to sleep. This is a top-notch, family friendly cottage that was perfect for our vacation! I would come back and stay again in a heartbeat! Great value for money with this property.
