A woodland retreat - Apartment in converted mill

Location

It was dirty, the property was in a very poor condition, windows and doors didn’t open or shut properly, the bathroom was a joke, you could hear everything said from upstairs, massively overpriced for the state of it, the fridge was actually rusted through its paint, cobwebs everywhere. There was no WiFi, the tv wouldn’t work, it’s very embarrassing that booking.com has allowed this property on their website.

Everything except the luck of proper TV signal

It was in a woodland

I booked that morning and booking had been accepted. 30 minutes before check in the landlord called and asked why I was staying which was because I was having a staycation with my kids, we were going to use the bath and cook dinner He said just pop on the heating and will be fine, On arrival it was freezing so put on the heating, Which it never actually heated up, We all stayed in the one bedroom, The kitchen wasn’t very well equipped and was filthy, There was mould all in the fridge, There were empty wrappers in the cupboards, The bathroom didn’t even have a plug for the bath, The beds smelled like they had been slept in. I felt so bad and my kids teeth were chattering they were that cold. I’m not one for a bad review so I contacted the owner which he apologised and said he would refund me half the cost which he won’t pay the cleaner and give it to me, Been about two months and Iv messaged him and no refund. Really unhappy with this stay and definitely won’t be returning. Would have been better off and a lot warmer and cleaned in the premier inn

We booked this lovely apartment for one night during our trip to explore the stunning St Michael’s Mount area, and it exceeded all expectations. The town itself is absolutely gorgeous – picturesque, peaceful, and full of charm – and this apartment was the perfect base. From the moment we booked, the host was incredibly kind and helpful. They sent detailed and very useful information straight after confirmation – clear directions, check-in instructions, parking tips, and even local recommendations – which made our arrival completely stress-free. The apartment was spotless, beautifully presented, and felt warm and welcoming right away. Everything was thoughtfully equipped, comfortable, and stylish – a real home away from home. We couldn’t have asked for a better host or place to stay. Thank you so much for your warmth and hospitality – we hope to return soon for a longer visit! Highly recommend to anyone visiting this magical part of Cornwall.

Location was good, close to town and amenities.

Not soundproofed, too noisy from neighbours in surrounding apartments until 2.30am so interrupted sleep for the whole stay!! Cobwebs and spiders in most rooms and doors didn’t close properly. Noisy pipework and squeaky floorboards. Would have been a nice touch to have had a small welcome pack especially when you can’t arrive until after 5pm.

Lovely location, pretty town

Could do with a sign at the bottom of the small turn off for those arriving in the dark to know which way to go
