Overall we were pleased with the property.
We underestimated the steepness of the stairs to top floor which became a bit of a drag.
The patio outside was full of weeds and was in need of a general tidy.
The beds were all comfortable and clean.
All other aspects of the property were more than adequate.

Loved our stay. Just a couple of points: microwave really does not work very well, and drain in shower on first floor slow running, we were not able to lift cover and investigate. Also light bulbs above dining room table flickered a lot and we could not find correct fittings to replace.

The Captains House provides everything we need for a wonderful beach holiday in Cornwall. This was our second stay and will hopefully not be the last. To be able to look out at the sea from the house and the verranda is,to me, everything I could wish for. Add to that, being able to walk to the beach and sleep in comfy beds we didn’t need anything else.
