Porthallow Reviews

Deborah
Weve just returned from a lovely holiday at Tresooth Cottages. The owners of these cottages are so helpful and friendly, it was a real pleasure to meet them. This property is due to be upgraded shortly there were areas that need an upgrade, however the facilities were brilliant and everything was in relatively good condition to say it is due to be renovated. The on site games room and swimming facilities are wonderful, my kids were in there all the time. I would definitely recommend and would also return for another visit. Thank you so much
A lovely two bedroom cottage in a small development of other holiday properties of different sizes. The cottage was well equipped it is due for refurbishment but is just a little dated currently and certainly did not stop us and our dog Millie from having a fabulous stay. The on site swimming pool was a lovely extra and the shared hot tub was always warm. We went to stay outside the school holidays and the area was quiet but it may be a bit noisier and busy by the pool during the summer. All areas were kept very tidy. The cottage is close to two lovely pubs the Red Lion and the New Inn food was great and staff friendly at both. Would definitely recommend to couples and families hoping to visit again soon.
