This was a great find-spotlessly clean, warm, lovely shower, fabulously comfortable bed with lovely duvet/pillows/bedding. Lovely woodland walk just outside, ideal for the dog
Location beautiful, cleanliness absolutely spot on. I would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in the bungalow its in an amazing location within the holiday village.

Well equipped & very good location
A lovely well equipped modern property to stay in. Tastefully decorated throughout. A vast array of cooking and serving utensils. Washer/dryer too!!! Loads of wildlife visited daily. An unexpectedly quiet bungalow to stay in as its located on a holiday park. This has been our third visit and we will be returning 🙂
We have just got back from a week's stay at leafy hollow and had an amazing time, the bungalow was modern and well equipped and for the price was outstanding, very clean and well looked after, everything you needed for your holiday stay was provided for. The hosts Sam and Jon kept us up to date with everything we needed to know.The bungalow is located at st Ives holiday village but you would have thought you where in the middle of nowhere, it was so quiet and peaceful ( just what we wanted ) but only a short bus or car journey into st Ives if you wanted a more scenic route you could get the train from st erth which is only 5 minutes away by car. Would highly recommend the beautifully presented bungalow.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay with relaxed atmosphere which was helped by good weather.
We found the slope to the chalet challenging as we are both in our late seventies and my wife has mobility problems, but we coped.
We were unaware that Wi-Fi was not available.
The lodge was exceptionally clean, maintained and well equipped. Heating was very good so great for a year round holiday. Great location and very convenient having a bus stop on site - great when walking the South West Coastal Path as you can hop on and off for all of the southern route. Great site but wouldn't recommend eating in the restaurant - overpriced, poor quality and a long waiting time.
The bungalow was perfectly fitted out with everything you would need for a relaxing stay. Smart fitted kitchen, excellent shower in bathroom and a lovely comfortable double bed in bedroom and all tastefully decorated. Our host’s Sam and John were very informative and helpful and we look forward to staying in Leafy Hollow again. Would highly recommend for any couples looking for a relaxing stay in comfortable surroundings .!!
Excellent bungalow for a couple with all that you may need.
I would only add a percolator or coffee machine.
The location is excellent to visit the villages around and Mount St Michael among other things.
You have to use the car to go everywhere as the path from the park is very short and takes you nowhere.

About the host
Hosted by Sam Thomas & Jon Facey
We are a couple who have lived and worked in Somerset for many years and as we spent so much time in Cornwall at the end of 2022 we made the move to relocate to Cornwall. I was born in Cornwall and have family nearby in Hayle and the surrounding villages and Jon is a water sports enthusiast so spends as much time as work permits kitesurfing at Gwithian, Sandy Acres and Marazion
Why they chose this property
We bought Leafy Hollow in 2006 as it's an ideal base for us, especially as we like to bring our dog on holiday with us. The holiday village has lovely woodland walks and many of the nearby beaches are dog friendly all year around.
What makes this property unique
When we purchased the bungalow in 2006 it was a 2 bedroom standard layout with a very small bathroom which didn't work for us. Jon worked hard to improve the internal layout to a larger 1 bedroom with larger bathroom which gives a more comfortable living space for a couple. We have equipped the bungalow to a very high standard to make your stay a 'home from home' experience.
