Jacobs Cottage

The location is obviously what sells this property. It's a few steps to the Platt and most of the restaurants. A short walk to the main coastal walks and lovely to dip in out of the small alleyways that make up this village.

The host is a shocking communicator blaming the signal for not being able to get hold of me for 5 weeks! We booked the whole cottage but only one bed was made up; I was told that house-keeping would make the others but they didn't. I phoned and got hold of the host who directed me to the linen to make my own beds up. The shower is sooo small for the size of the property and the bathroom sink is tiny and splashes everywhere you run the tap. We couldn't get hot water for the whole time that we were there. There was a musty smell throughout and I'm sure there were fleas in the rugs in the kitchen as I got bitten on my ankles every time I went down down there. There wasn't anything to wash up with although there was 3 tea towels. The cupboards are full of mismatched items with no full dinner plates. The decor looked tired and faded, the settee covers need a good wash and freshen up. The blinds on the windows are very worn and they don't have the safety lock to tie them up; this property is not suitable for children at all. There are few mirrors and none that are full length and there's no hairdryer nor torches (despite saying there were in the lacking 'Welcome Folder')

Breakfast SC, top location 👍

Nothing it was all fine

Location

This property is in need of complete renovation. The carpets and furniture are old and not in good shape- all needs replacing. The house smells unclean and carpets are visibly dirty.

Great location and cute decor.

Plumbing issues and inadequate cleaning.

Great location and superb contact with host.

Fabulous location 👍 also great to have a log burner

Perfect position in Port Isaac to explore from. Jacob's Cottage was a very authentic and charming place to stay. Locals were lovely throughout the Port Isaac and The Golden Lion was really lovely to have a drink in. The Port Gaverne pub had an opening night under new management which we can highly recommend to visit. Absolutely loved our stay.

My family are all over 6.2 feet tall, they regularly hit their heads, but I was perfectly fine 🙂 👍. If you are on the tall side, maybe reconsider your options. The charm of the place was great and was very warm once we worked out the heating. The shower was a bit tight for taller people.

Location is excellent. Right in the middle of Port Isaac 5 metres from the pub, the slipway and not much further to all other facilities. You can also it in some of the scenes of Doc Martin :-)

Really well located.

Lack of communication before our stay, questions left unanswered.. Lack of care, unmade stained duvets and towels, no toilet paper provided.
