“Lovely house, nice to find a house that can fit 2 families with enough table space, chairs, crockery etc!”

Really comfy beds, parking (which could be more clearly marked as one of our spaces initially had been taken by the farmhouse next door) Short walk to the beach with options down the road or on footpaths. We will certainly be back.

“We absolutely loved our stay, cottage spacious, comfortable and well equipped with amazing sea views.”

Great location with lots of beautiful dog friendly beaches and walks nearby which were very much appreciated by our border collie. Will definitely be back.

- Liz, September 2024

Thank you so much for your lovely review, Liz! I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. Mary Property Owner
Janet September 2024

“Porth Farm Annexe is a delightful cottage in a fantastic location, it is quaint and quirky as you would expect with a property of this age.”

It is well equipped and provides comfortable accommodation with a large open plan living area with wonderful views from the huge windows. The first floor bathroom would benefit from an upgrade (to include a shower) to reflect the same quality as the ground floor bathroom. Our host was very friendly and quick to respond to any queries.

- Janet, September 2024

Thanks so much for your feedback, Janet, I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. Yes, the first floor bathroom is next on the list for an upgrade! Mary Property Owner
Paul August 2024

“The house was good for a family with 4 small boys and the location was perfect.”

However we had a few minor issues:- Both toilet seats were loose and not easy to use for the boys. Very limited space to wash and dry washing, as we had 4 boys and 4 adults having a beach holiday we had lots to wash.

- Paul, August 2024

Thank you so much for your feedback. The toilet seats are now tightened, and a second washing line put up. Kind regards Mary Property Owner
Graham July 2024

“There was no property manual to tell us what to do with the rubbish and recycling or how the heating system worked.”

I understand that there is underfloor heating downstairs but there are radiators in all rooms which seem to be redundant. We survived a couple of cold days with the woodstove, but no matches so took a while to get going. Otherwise it is a good location and a very friendly neighbourhood.

- Graham, July 2024

Thank you so much for your feedback. I do apologise for the lack of information and matches! I send out an email to guests with directions and information prior to their stay, but it appears this did not reach you. I will now also make a physical property manual which will be kept in the house. Kind regards Mary Property Owner
Dina May 2024

“My 8 children, husband and I had a wonderful time at The Anexe.”

It is only 10 minutes walk from the beach, which is one of the best beaches I’ve ever seen. From the living room you have lovely view of Mawgan Port. We enjoyed a lot the fire place, the kitchen is well supplied and the beds are clean and comfortable. Bathrooms are nice as well. There is nothing fancy about this property but the coziness and homeiness of this place is making us want to go back.

- Dina, May 2024

Dear Dina, thank you so much for your kind review, I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Hollie December 2023

“Absolutely loved the house, it was perfect for my family and our friend’s family.”

Lovely location and everything was brilliant. Our only issue was the property wasn’t ready with the cleaner at 4pm and we received no apology which really grates on me, had there been an apology from the woman cleaning we’d have not even made a comment.

- Hollie, December 2023

Hi Hollie I do apologise for this! I will follow up with the cleaner and find out what happened. Many thanks for your feedback. Kind regards Mary Property Owner
Jonathan September 2023

“We had a great time staying at the Annexe, we had a couple of minor issues that Mary the owner sorted for us very quickly.”

Our only other comment is that the garden wasn’t enclosed at all and our 7month old puppy led 3 or 4 escapes. So we had to use a combination of garden furniture to prevent further escapes. In addition a light that faces onto the garden area would also be a good addition to light up this area for those who let their canine friends out late at night.

Deborah August 2023

“Porth Farm Annexe is a wonderful family house.”

The kitchen is well equipped and the big living room is perfect for multiple activities. We loved our stay there.

- Deborah, August 2023
Louise July 2023

“Loved our stay at Porth Farm Annexe, lovely property and very comfortable, great location.”

We are looking to book again for next year

Cl October 2022

“Fabulous stay at this beautiful place.”

Loved the upside downiness so we could appreciate the wonderful views. Very confortable beds and quality linen - much appreciated after our long days out & about. Everything you could need in the kitchen. Thank you!

- Cl, October 2022

Thanks so much for your lovely review! I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. Mary Property Owner
Ken September 2022

“The location is superb, the beds are comfortable and the house is warm.”

There is a need for a shaving socket in the bathroom and a microwave oven in the kitchen as 40 min to heat a ready cooked meal is waist of energy.

- Ken, September 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We can't put in a shaving socket but will certainly consider a microwave! Kind regards, Mary Property Owner
Alice September 2022

“Had a fantastic week in September in the Annexe.”

The open plan kitchen sitting room is lovely. There are windows on three sides and the light and the views are stunning. It was very comfortable and relaxed and very well equipped. It manages to have an old fashioned quality whilst still providing mod cons and has lots of thoughtful touches. Location is great, just up the (steep) hill from the shops/beach. Lovely walks all around and lots of other places to visit within a short distance.

- Alice, September 2022

Thanks for the lovely review, Alice! I'm so glad you enjoyed your holiday. Property Owner
Steven August 2022

“A lovely cottage in a great location.”

Our family of 5 had an amazing fortnight here, and Mary couldn’t have been more helpful. Our only minor comment would be that it could have been cleaner when we arrived, but overall we were very very happy.

- Steven, August 2022
Effie July 2022

“Brilliant property.”

Great location and a great space to spend time together as a big group (particularly the open kitchen/diner/living room area). The property had everything we needed and we absolutely loved staying there. Would definitely go back

- Effie, July 2022

Thanks so much, Effie! I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay. Mary Property Owner
Lesley May 2022

“We had such a great holiday but there were a couple of things we would have changed.”

There was hardly any outdoor space for the children to play considering the size of the property. All the windows didn’t have curtains so when there were people staying in the caravan they were able to see into the living room. My daughter had a few privacy issues and that is what she disliked the most. We could have done with another shower as it’s not always practical to have baths all the time so there was always a queue for the downstairs shower. The annex was really comfortable, well stocked for catering for big parties, dishwasher, washing machine and drier all a godsend with four mucky children!! Mary was a fabulous host (even thought we didn’t actually meet) but the one issue we had she sorted it and phoned me to apologise. All in all I would recommend this property with no hesitation. So worth the 6 hour drive.

- Lesley, May 2022

Dear Lesley Thank you so much for your feedback. We took down the curtain in the living room window last year to make space for coat hooks, but will now look to block it in altogether after your helpful comment. We also plan to convert the upstairs bathroom into a shower room longer term. I'm so glad you had a lovely holiday! Kind regards Mary Property Owner
Magdalena April 2022

“Fantastic place, great host.”

THANK YOU!!!

- Magdalena, April 2022

Thanks Magdalena So glad you enjoyed it! Mary Property Owner
John April 2022

“Property is in an excellent location and although a little dated in the kitchen and living room area, suited our needs.”

With some small adjustments to front garden and trees parking could be made bigger and easier. Some confusion about how many adults the property catered for was clarified (we believe the property description had changed after we booked) and also check in/out day was gratefully resolved. Would be happy to stay here again and recommend to others.

- John, April 2022
Nicola October 2021

“We have just returned from Porth farm annexe after a wonderful week!”

Wow.. What can I say, the property is fantastic! Lovely open plan kitchen/living room with a beautiful log fire, perfect after a long day walking. Beds are so comfortable and plenty of space for storage in the cupboards. My two dogs loved the little garden and with the beach just a short walk away the location was perfect for us. We particularly loved the large windows in the living room where the views across Mawgan Porth are beautiful. Mary the owner was lovely and sent me lots of information about the property and the area. We will definitely be returning to Porth Farm annexe!

Boasting spectacular views of the sea and sprawling valley, this is the perfect dwelling for a large family of 10 and two pets.

Park in the two handy off-road spaces in front the house, before ascending the stone steps to a delightful front lawn space with ample seating for you to stretch out on and a convenient barbecue, along with those gorgeous sea views.

Be welcomed into a spacious open-plan room, where everything you need for your holiday is at your feet; the space showcases large windows that bring in the rural vista and flood the space with natural light.

Unwind on the leather sofas in front of the TV as the woodburning stove crackles away in the background; superb for those chilly evenings.

The country style kitchen is a charming spot, whilst also being well-equipped with metal appliances for the designated chef to rustle up culinary delights with; there are additional laundry facilities within the property, for extra convenience.

When dinner is ready, gather your group at the window dining table and catch up about the activities you’ve been getting up to on the coast!

In the evening, choose between five appealing bedrooms to rest your head in; the first floor plays host to a pretty double room, with a close-by bathroom – ideal for those wanting a bit of privacy.

Descend the stairs to find four more well-appointed rooms, two are bunk beds that are perfect for the kids to rest in, along with two more doubles and an additional bathroom that boasts a separate bath and walk-in shower.

After enjoying a well-deserved rest, make your way into Mawgan Porth to find your amenities, with a convenience store and pub located less than half a mile away from the annexe.

Wander along the River Menalhyl to find the extensive sands of Mawgan Porth where you can paddle in its waters or simply catch the sun’s rays on the shore; venture further into town to partake in a game of golf at the Merlin Golf Course or walk your furry friends on the Mawgan Porth & St Mawgan trail.

Head to Newquay, a place hosting Britain’s surf scene on its plethora of beaches; the town is additionally home to fascinating attractions for all the family, including: Blue Reef Aquarium, Newquay Zoo and the Trenance Gardens.

Venture to Padstow and immerse yourself in aquatic wildlife, with its National Lobster Hatchery, Padstow Sealife Safari Tour and the nature-rich walk along the South West Coast Path.
