"The accommodation was in an ideal location for travelling to Padstow with it being a 5 min walk away and the camel trail on your doorstep.The surrounding beaches were also within easy travel time.Tesco just up the road for your shopping, although it does tend to be busy in the peak season.The internet was intermittent, may have been running out and for a further 12.00 we could have increased the budget? The property was basic and in need of TLC, but it had all you need.The garden is secure for your pets, but again could do with TLC same as the garden furniture.The host was friendly easy to contact if you had any issues."
