Lovely place
Bass Cottage is absolutely delightful, very nicely decorated and with plenty of space. It has everything you could need and is so comfortable. The beach is seconds away, great for walking the dogs. We did a lot of sightseeing and walking but it was always lovely to get back to the cottage. Really wonderful place, would highly recommend.

Feedback from the chamberlains
Really enjoyable break in this lovely cottage. Very tastefully decorated with every thing you would need.
A real home from home. I would recommend this property to my friends and family however the location was rather remote and as it is early May there was no beach bistro or pub open.

Nice property relaxed lication
We enjoyed our stay. The property was ideal for the two of us and two dogs. The location is very peaceful. Only downside was the the pub had lost its chef so there was nowhere to eat out within reasonable walking distance. They were working on that so hopefully not an issue for future bookings.

Lovely cottage
The cottage was well equipped and the garden opposite was a little place to escape from the family. Port Hallow was remote and the pub opening times were erratic and the Beach cafe simply wasn’t open despite information to the contrary when l emailed them prior to our visit.
Beds were very comfortable. The cottage is a short walk to the beach and the whole area is dog friendly. It took me a while to get used to the small Cornish roads and reversing skill is essential. I would recommend the Fat Apple cafe that is 0.4 miles away - brilliant friendly service and excellent food.

A hidden gem.
Just a lovely property in a great location. It's obviously on the small side being a Fishermans cottage but it's bigger than it looks in the photos as was big enough for the 4 of us. The dining table seats 4 easily.
The decor is lovely, really calming and the upstairs bedroom are lovely and light with the high ceilings.
The beach is great for swimming, snorkelling, kayaking etc.
The Fat Apple Cafe is definitely worth visiting as well.
The thing we liked the most was how quiet is was compared to even the surrounding beaches. Will be staying here again and would definitely recommend it. Thanks Jon!

A wonderful peaceful holiday
This was just a beautiful place to stay. The cottage was amazing and had everything we needed.
It was so quiet and with the perfect weather also, it was just heaven.
The cottage is of a very high standard and we would recommend to anyone. We are so glad we found this place and will definately return.
Beach was super especially early morning when dogs could rome free which they loved.
The pub was fine and the food good.
Overall a perfect stay.

Beautiful cottage in peaceful coastal location
We had a wonderful stay at Bass Cottage, all the communication with Jon, the owner was excellent- he replied to any queries super quick and was extremely friendly and helpful. The cottage was very well equipped and tastefully decorated with great linen and towels, it was spotlessly clean on arrival and you can tell a lot of thought and care has gone into the design and layout. It is snug for 4 adults, especially the second bedroom and the seating in the lounge but wasn’t a problem for us. We didn’t realise beforehand that the garden was over the road but this was fine and is very private. The only improvement we could think of is providing 4 outside chairs instead of 2 - even a couple of fold-up camping chairs would have been useful and personally we don’t find the picnic bench outside seating very comfortable- a table with chairs would have suited us better. We loved sitting out the front of the cottage with a cup of tea and watching life go by in Porthallow. Lots of great walks from the doorstep a friendly pub with good food in the village and the sea a stone’s throw away. We LOVED it!

Bass Cottage is the best holiday cottage we have stayed at in the UK. Everything is top quality and it lacks nothing at all. Very friendly village with a great pub and cafes. If we holiday in the UK again we will definitely be returning. Just perfect.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Bass cottage. The location is excellent. We enjoyed that fact that the beach was so close which made it easy to set off with our kayaks! The property itself is finished to a very high standard. Kitchen was very well equipped although the fridge/freezer was on a small side.
We loved it and can’t wait to come back!
