Hi Shirley just touching base to let you know we checked at 10.30. Thank you for letting us stay it was great. A couple a things to let you know, The mail box appears full, We couldn’t find the iron or ironing board. The kitchen sink tape has a drip it needs washer replacement. You’re obviously aware the tikes in the bathroom by the shower are cracked. There was also a couple of chipped plates ( large ones) We run rental properties also and just thought you’d like the feedback. These things didn’t bother us and we weren’t sure if you were aware. We had a great time. Thanks for letting us stay. Wish you all the best

Morley’s Cottage, Port Isaac!

Incredible spot, so close to harbour, lovely to hear the sea lapping at the slipway at night. Seagulls singing all day .. views from the windows right in the heart of Port Isaac, the Old School house at night! The early morning hustle and bustle at the Fish Market, Pints in the Golden Lion.. Scenic walks and runs, beautiful countryside.. Lovely friendly people, local and holiday makers.. just the best!

Lovey cottage, great location

The cottage is in the heart of Port Isaac and is typically quaint for the area. Parking spot is at the top of the hill and instructions were not accurate so was hard to find initially.

Little Gem

We loved Morley Cottage, the location is amazing you can see the harbour & Mrs Tishell’s Pharmacy from the lounge & bedroom window. Fab decor & lovely linen / towels / white robe. Lovely that it is also dog friendly. Communication with Shirley the host was great. Cottage is well equipped.

Good but needed a refurb

Nice cottage but small and overpriced.cottage looking tired.bathroom tiles cracked and shower didn't drain.cottage clean.what put my wife and I off we were asked to allow a plumber access to fix broken washing machine. The owner then asked if she could let estate agent in with a prospective buyer whilst we were on holiday! Not a good look!

Great location but designated parking miles away

The cottage is in great location but it does need an update. For the price paid I would expect everything in working order, but unfortunately it wasn't. The tap was dripping, broken tiles in the bathroom covered just with the towel, downstairs floor and the rug could do with an update, stains on the sofa . Big disappointment was finding out the “designated parking “ is outside the village - 20 mins walk uphill to get the car every time we wanted to use it, and god forbid you forget something in the car - it does get tiring, especially when not everyone in the party is able to make this walk every time. This should have been “mentioned “ in the main description so people can make informed decision before they book. And not as property manager suggested to ask about prior making the booking.

Horrible experience

We were told there was washer dryer and WiFi and television. When we arrived, there was no WiFi and the tv needed a code. The only way to communicate with the host was by email which I had to leave the property and go to a restaurant to use their WiFi and then await a response. My husband and I were tired and wanted a few days to rest, watch tv, and clean our clothes. Someone came by at 8:45 at night to drop off trash bags and he was nice enough to give us the WiFi code. This should have been provided. Then we had washed all clothing and were told that the advertised dryer was actually an air dryer. Thus would have been useful to know prior to Washing all Of Our clothes. The stairs were very thus in length and had to Be used sideways. Not a great experience. We left after 1 night never to Return

Cute cottage

The location is perfect for travelers looking to stay in “downtown Doc Martin” as my son put it. Another review suggested that the place could be cleaner and I have to agree; the property owner needs to come for a few days and do a serious cleaning beyond what normal cleaners do, but aside from the cobwebs it was decent. We loved being so close to the harbor, but it's a little noisy if you're trying to sleep late. All that being said, we loved it and would stay there again.

Perfect location

The cottage needs a refresh… there is a rank smell downstairs. The doctor a bit tired.cracked floor tiles in the bathroom. The upholstery in the sitting room a bit dirty and it needed a better clean. Overall a good base for a couple though the master bedroom mattress was hard and the bed a bit short if you are tall….

Lovely spot in the centre of village

Great spot. Cottage could do with a bit of an update but a pleasant stay nonetheless. It is a bit of an ordeal to drop off but the benefit is a traffic free village. Sadly the promised car park space at the top of the village was not available which was disappointing given this was one reason for booking. Comfy bed and well equipped (lacking cork screw and wine glasses). Great place though with pet allowed too which was a bonus!
