A lovely very large and very comfortable house which was very clean and very well equipped We had a great holiday and the house was very much the centre of it

- Kevin, July 2024

Thanks so much, Harry. Property Owner
Sue July 2024

“Very disappointing.”

The place was 'tired' and shabby with poor facilities i.e. no shower gel or tv's in the rooms. Parking for two as advertised was impossible as everything overgrown and access to to property was outrageous and dangerous especially for small children or the frail. The furnishings were just old without being in keeping with age of the house. Beds were comfortable and the place was clean, but the burn hole in the living room rug and the fact that my daughter had to defrost the freezer added tor a fairly uncomfortable stay

- Sue, July 2024

I’m sorry to hear you felt that. It is a traditional house with traditional furniture as can be seen from the photographs. The gardener comes regularly and I think does an excellent job of keeping the garden well maintained. Nobody else has had any difficulty parking two cars in the space in front of the garage. Harry. Property Owner

“The house was large and clean and tidy.”

Poppy the cleaner and liaison between customers and owners was very helpful. We all enjoyed our stay here and will try to book again.

Jayne May 2024

“Well what can I say, Penare house is the perfect place for a family get together.”

Very spacious, very clean thanks to Poppy and books galore. It was great for dogs the garden is enclosed, we had 4 dogs they all slept in the utility room. Mevergissey is a short walk away and is a lovely quaint little harbour. We have an electric car and there is a charger in the car park in Mevergissey which was useful. We can recommend the sharksfin for Sunday lunch. We had lots of days out tintagel castle, lost gardens of Heligan, Charles town, Falmouth (to see family), Fistral beach and Crantock beach. We all throughly enjoyed our stay and we will definitely be going back next year

“Found contact with Sykes very difficult, never get to speak to anyone , seem to like Apps and messages so problems did not get solved.”

- Mark, May 2024

I'm sorry to hear that. Guests are advised to contact the housekeeper Poppy direct with any queries or problems. She is very attentive. Her mobile number is emailed to all guests and is also available in the information folder in the kitchen. Best wishes, Harry Property Owner

Maxine March 2024

“Had a great week at this lovely property.”

Loved the period features and there is so much room for a family to be together without treading on each others toes. The welcome pack was much appreciated and a thank you to Poppy too, the house was very welcoming.

- Maxine, March 2024

Thanks so much. Harry Property Owner

Really enjoyed our stay at Penare House and all those books!

Thanks so much! Harry Property Owner
Maureen July 2023

“Lovely character home for our family reunion.”

But the house desperately in need of some TLC. Damp a problem. Access not great for elderly, disabled and toddlers. But big thanks to housekeeper Poppy. House was clean and showers hot and kitchen was well appointed. Sofas definitely needed replaced. We had brought our own stair gate for 22 month old toddler. But we had a wonderful holiday and saw a lot of Cornwall.

- Maureen, July 2023

Thank you for the feedback. I’m so pleased you enjoyed your holiday and I agree that Poppy does a fantastic job. As it’s a big, old house the staircase is rather grand and so not really suitable for a stair gate - though we do have a cot and a high chair. Some tiles fell off the roof during a storm. These have been replaced and we are replastering and redecorating. Also we have bought new cushions for the sofas. Property Owner
David June 2023

“We had a lovely stay at Penare House.”

The house was well equipped and a perfect size for our family of six. Very close to the coast path and for walks to the nearby beach and into Mevagissey. So many books to read and board games were a great addition. Our only negatives were that a little TLC is needed, there is some patchy damp on a few of the internal exterior walls and the sofa as others have mentioned could do with updating, and pillows replacing but these didn't hamper our stay. We hope to return.

- David, June 2023
Beverly May 2023

“The house was well equiped, clean and very comfortable and Poppy was very helpful.”

The holiday was made better by lovely weather and a bonus of seeing dolphins on our ferry trip to Fowey. We would love to go back there.

- Beverly, May 2023

The house was beautiful, downstairs toilet seat wobbling and dangerous, wet walls in main bedroom and small bedroom a crack in window in little bedroom, but great location beds comfortable and all towels clean, use of all facilities, would definitely stay again the dogs had a great holiday mine are not allowed upstairs so I bought a gate with me, did think sofas uncomfortable but it was a lovely place, will book again as I have a daughter who lives in Truro and has a child who is limited life so nice to spend time with them so thank you again

- Judith, May 2023

Thanks, Judith. I'm so pleased you enjoyed your holiday and that you will be coming again. We are getting a new sofa and will fix the lavatory seat and investigate the other matters. Harry Property Owner
Andrew April 2023

“We loved the house, full of character.”

Unfortunately character means rattly windows during a windy night. Sofas could do with updating along with a slightly larger TV. Other than that we had a great time exploring the local area and coming home to this great house. Andy

- Andrew, April 2023

Thanks, Andy. So pleased you enjoyed your stay. Sorry about the windows rattling when it got windy. Some of the rubber window wedges seem to have gone missing so we are getting replacements. The TV is a pretty modern "smart" TV - flat screen with an array of channels. I think it's a normal size screen. The sitting room in the property has a traditional beauty and I think a really big TV screen would be unsuitable there. But I take the point about the sofa being due to be replaced so we will look into that. Harry Property Owner
Barrie December 2022

“We had a lovely family Christmas at Penare House made even better by the character and charm of the house.”

Everything we needed was there, making it a real home from home. We love the area having been coming to Pentewan Sands and Mevagissy for many years on summer holidays but Christmas was very special with all the family and dogs with us. Our own children and grandchildren loved it and thought the house was very “Christmassy”, thanks to Poppy for the decorations and beautiful Christmas tree. A perfect Christmas, thank you from all of us!

- Barrie, December 2022
Euan October 2022

“Penare house couldn’t have been more perfect, Poppy was extremely accommodating and we very much enjoyed our stay - we will be back!”

- Euan, October 2022
Sophie October 2022

“We had a lovely stay at Penare House in Mevagissey.”

The shower in the main bathroom was amazing, and the highlight of the house for us was the beautiful open log fire. We had the fire on every night, and with the lounge door shut, it made the room wonderful and cosy. The house was nice and clean, and well equipped for our needs. We really appreciated the secure enclosed garden for our 3 dogs, although it's worth noting that the fence at the end of the garden is quite low, so for any particularly 'springy' dogs, it's worth supervising them whilst outside. We also loved the sheer amount of books that the house has to offer - it felt really homely! The house is a short walk down into the town of Mevagissey, which is beautiful and has some lovely shops and places to eat. There are plenty of vegan food options which was wonderful too! Poppy was very helpful and welcoming, and was on standby should we have needed anything (which we didn't!). We hope to be back soon!

- Sophie, October 2022
Lisa September 2022

“Great location for walking to the beach and into Mevagissey.”

The house is spacious and well equipped and a new load of wood arrived during our stay. It was very clean and Poppy was very quick to help with any of our questions. Sadly our only gripe is that for a large room and for the number of people it can accommodate, the TV is too small and is a struggle to enjoy.

- Lisa, September 2022
Nigel September 2022

“It’s a lovely property full of character with everything you need for a fantastic break”

- Nigel, September 2022
Clare August 2022

“We have stayed in many properties handled by Sykes in the past 11 years and felt this one fell short due to the following 1.”

A deep clean is required as there was spiders webs and dust, dead insects. 2. The decor is dated and rather sad looking. 3. The TV in the sitting room is far too small for such a large room. This comment has been ignored as it has been written in the house comment book on several occasions. 4. Overpriced!

- Clare, August 2022
Russell July 2022

“Had a great time, house is lovely.”

Poppy is attentive and very helpful Many thanks

- Russell, July 2022
Vytautas June 2022

“Great place to stay”

- Vytautas, June 2022
Karen June 2022

“Spacious & comfortable property, lovely garden.”

Beds comfortable. Helpful assistance from Poppy who was keen to make sure we had everything we needed. Would recommend. We will be returning.

- Karen, June 2022
Gareth April 2022

“Nice spacious property, well equipped.”

Just a short walk from the coastal path and stunning views. Well placed to visit lots of beautiful beaches and attractions. Just worth noting that if you fancy a walk into Mevagissey itself although it's not far it is quite steep coming back. Any issues we did have were dealt with quickly by Poppy who couldn't have been more helpful.

- Gareth, April 2022
Karen February 2022

“We had a lovely week, house was easily big enough for the 7 of us (all adults) and two large dogs.”

reading some of the previous reviews, we took the kitchenware we thought we would need, but there was enough of everything. house was not so perfect that we felt uncomfortable, but perfect enough for us. I actually loved all the books, the whole place reminded me of holidays when I was younger - couldn't recommend enough. Shame about the weather, and that we had to leave early because of the upcoming storm

- Karen, February 2022
Jacqueline December 2021

“The house has a relaxed feel to it which makes it enjoyable for large groups (there were 8 of us - 3 families and a dog) but the pictures are out of date as Sykes market the property as being modern inside and light and contemporary.”

This is not the case at all and the property now appears to be filled with contents from an elderly relatives deceased estate - being 1000s of very old and musty smelling books and dark book cases that are often falling apart. These books have been put everywhere - literally in every space possible - and that includes even in kitchen drawers, meaning that there is only 1 cupboard that can be used in the kitchen for a house that sleeps 9. The property has no drying rack or airer available for clothes, yet it offers a washing machine and tumble dryer. The towels given to guests are also very thin and old and there are no additional ones for the communal areas, like a hand towel in the bathroom. As with the other comments, the house keeper is very helpful and friendly and the property was left clean so in that regard it was good. The house itself would also be good if it was at a price that reflected the condition and the pictures told the true state. It was those two factors against the reality that has caused my disappointment. If the owner spent just a few pounds on a drying rail (as has been suggested by other guests several times) and left some storage (or even bought some more shelving) for the paying guests, then the house would be worth the rental, or possibly even more. There was also an large deep wooden chest full of someones dirty clothes left in the house, presumably the owners. I only opened it whilst looking for a dustpan and brush (also not provided) but I'd suggest to the owner that personal items like these are padlocked.

- Jacqueline, December 2021

Thank you for your feedback. As a result, we are getting new, thick towels. There are a lot of books in the house which some guests appreciate. But I agree we should update the photographs to show the bookcases. The dustpan and brush is under the sink. The drying rack is under the stairs. I'm sorry you had trouble finding them. We will add a note in the guide book for guests about this. Our housekeeper, Poppy, is always very happy to help guests with such queries. Property Owner
Cassandra December 2021

“Panare house had everything we would need.”

Very comfortable, warm, spacious and homely. The owner was so helpful and even decorated the house ready for us for Christmas which was lovely. Would definitely recommend, we would book again.

- Cassandra, December 2021
Melanie November 2021

“We had a great time.”

Lovely place to stay.

- Melanie, November 2021
Kelvin November 2021

“Excellent all round especially dealing with poppy”

- Kelvin, November 2021
Adele October 2021

“Cottage has most everything you need for a home away from home stay, although I would recommend a larger indoor airer for those holidaying in the winter months when laundry items can't be tumble dried.”

Possibly some larger pots when cooking for a crowd. However all in all fabulous accommodation needs a bit of tlc here and there but with back to back bookings finding the time is proving difficult I suspect. It didn't detract from our stay and Poppy was extremely helpful would book again.

- Adele, October 2021
Robin September 2021

“A large property with all facilities that you need for a comfortable stay.”

The lady that hosts the property (Poppy) is lovely and cannot do enough to assist. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.

Caroline August 2021

- Caroline, August 2021
Jane July 2021

“A great house for families.”

Large spaces and not too precious to enjoy it. A large, lived in, comfortable family house that we all enjoyed.

- Jane, July 2021
Deborah June 2021

“Linen and towels rather tired.”

Sofas totally flat so sitting in the lounge was uncomfortable. Otherwise a good location , lovely welcome pack and enjoyable stay.

- Deborah, June 2021

Thank you or your feedback. The linen and towels have now been replaced. We hope this did not impact on your stay too much. Property Owner
John May 2021

“Fabulous house and Poppy was very helpful.”

- John, May 2021
Christopher May 2021

“Very spacious and well located house.”

However, the furnishing is rather tired and the huge volumes of old and dusty books were a little excessive. During periods of wind and rain, the house is very draughty and the kitchen is particularly cold. The living room carpet in fact was levitating in response to the high winds which was a unique experience

- Christopher, May 2021

Thank you for the feedback. I know the wind was exceptionally strong during your visit. However, we are taking measures to improve the insulation - including providing curtains for the French windows in the kitchen. Property Owner

Georgia September 2020

“Amazing property with lots of character in an excellent location.”

Every part of the experience excelled our expectations and we can't wait to hopefully return soon.

- Georgia, September 2020
Maureen December 2019

“The property was very nice, clean and provided a good sized living space.”

We were a party of 6 adults which worked well, more adults may struggle with the bathroom facilities. The house is an easy walk to the town with it’s numerous pubs and restaurants, but the return is up a very steep hill, which may cause problems for those less able. The welcome pack of basic essentials was very helpful. The Eden project is a short drive and the Lost Gardens if Heligan a 40 minute walk.

- Maureen, December 2019
Tracey November 2019

“House may be much better in the summer but as a winter stay it needs some upgrading.”

As it was cold and windy the front door didn’t do much to keep the draught out. My son & partner have a 5 month old so had the master bedroom, the wind was blowing the window that rattled & the curtains were moving which kept the baby awake. It could be a lovely house but needs upgrading. The electric also cut off on the Saturday morning & after a few phone calls was sorted but overall the holiday was spoilt.

- Tracey, November 2019
Adrian September 2019

“Penare house was as described, very spacious, comfortable and well equipped.”

However the house in general needs some maintenance,there is obviously a leak in the roof and as a consequence there are damp patches throughout. Also some of the cooking equipment needs renewing ie frying pans.

- Adrian, September 2019

Thank you for the feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay at Penare House. We will get a new frying pan and hope you would agree that the kitchen supplies are extensive and of good quality. There wasn't actually a leak in the roof but our builder has treated the damp patches. The climate in Cornwall does make this a perennial problem in period houses. We are pleased that despite the points raised you aenjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Pamela September 2019

“To be fair, we weren’t misled, but made assumptions about accessibility of bathrooms and that the house was suitable for nine adults.”

There was a huge disparity between the master suite and all of the other bedrooms. I’m sure it’s fine for families with small children but not for adults all of whom had paid the same rate. We had a problem with the boiler which was fixed immediately. We would have appreciated rinse aid and salt for dishwasher, more toilet rolls and washing powder but perhaps this is to be expected. All in all, if the welcome pack had included these items it would have been appreciated.

- Pamela, September 2019

Thank you for the feedback. While all the bedrooms are generously sized it is quite true that the bedroom with the four poster is the largest. We provide "all in one" tablets for the dishwasher and so salt and rinse aid are not required. While we do provide washing powder and lavatory paper - as well as dishwasher tables - guests will sometimes need top up on supplies during their stay Property Owner
Catherine June 2019

Deanna April 2019

“Really enjoyed our stay at Penare House, lovely comfortable house with all facilities.”

We had some plumbing issues but these were quickly dealt with by the housekeeper and maintenance guy. Loved Mevigessy. Thank you for a great stay.

Thank you for your kind comments regarding your stay. Property Owner
Sarah March 2019

“Maybe in the listing making people aware of the steep incline from the village back to the property.”

It wasn't too much of an issue but may be for others.

- Sarah, March 2019
Charlotte November 2018

“I wasn't too sure how I would find Penare and was delighted that it exceeded my expectations.”

I was very spacious and despite it being the end of November it was toasty warm. It is at the top of the hill so it is a very good work out to get home after going to Mevagissey if you are pushing a pram! It does have parking, which is a treat in Mevagissey. It was a fun house for a two and three year old who were confident on stairs. Poppy could not have been more helpful and welcoming. Really enjoyed it and would stay here again.

- Charlotte, November 2018

Mark July 2018

“The house was lovely and clean and comfortable, it had everything one could need.”

The welcome pack was a very nice touch and much appreciated. We and our 2 labs thoroughly enjoyed our stay there

- Mark, July 2018
Kim March 2018

“The house was great in general except the heating in the top three rooms didn't work, they were very cold .”

And as the weather down in Cornwall was very cold and windy with lots of snow from Sunday the !8th which remained for two days, those three rooms couldn't be used, in fact we didn't bother to use them as they were so cold. bit of a waste really. The front bedroom with the four poster and the living room were so draftee from around the windows I had to go round all four windows stuffing the gaps with newspaper to cut the draft, once I had completed this the two front rooms warmed up nicely. Unfortunately there was nothing to be done to reduce the draft through the front door. The rest of the house was fine and the log fire was great, although we did get through some logs. We would return to Penare House but only during the summer months.

The property

A grand coastal residence in every sense!

Penare House offers a high specification interior, generous proportions and a hill top position with sea views and convenient access to the beach and coastal footpath in the fishing village of Mevagissey on Cornwall's golden Riviera coastline.

It is a handsome property for large parties but equally great for couples looking to enjoy a romantic break.

Arranged over three levels and newly refurbished throughout, the interior smolders with an understated elegance.

Perhaps the most striking feature is the master en-suite bedroom with its ocean views, antique four poster bed and chaise longue or, if it is an atmosphere for entertaining, then the kitchen/diner which boasts a wood burner beside a farmhouse dining table, every conceivable appliance including a range cooker and doors to the enclosed rear garden equipped with a brick barbecue and patio furniture.

Adults can retire to the comfy sitting room and the warmth of an open fire in the cooler months and for children there is an entertainment room on the top floor equipped with a second TV, wireless broadband, hi-fi, games and books.

Mevagissey village and harbour, which still operates a small fleet and pleasure boats, is a ten minute walk along narrow streets lined with fishermen cottages, old inns, restaurants and galleries.

Convenient for the beaches at Polstreath (about 250 yards away at the foot of the cliff) Pentewan (2.1 miles) and Gorran Haven (3.8 miles) and within a 10 mile radius of the renowned Eden Project, the award winning Lost Gardens of Heligan, the exclusive waterfront town of Fowey and harbourside village of St Mawes.

Flexible with five bedrooms, practical with three bathrooms and convenient with parking for three cars, Penare House caters exceptionally well for families and offers bespoke pricing for couples during the low season.
