Gillyweed was lovely - in a beautiful spot, with easy access to the water (if using kayaks etc) and with two adequate car parking spaces in front of the building (which was invaluable, given the narrow roads).

The property was beautiful with quirky spaces in its lay-out and presented in a modern, cosy style with lovely taste. Although it was well presented, it could have been a bit cleaner (but this could've been that it was end of season and awaiting a 'deep clean'!) We would definitely stay again and were very impressed with just how lovely Noss Mayo is (a real find!) Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay in a beautiful location.

The accommodation was lovely throughout & very comfortable. Only slight issue was that the shower was unusable as it flooded the room. We did report this to the caretaker but didn’t hear back. Also the fridge door needs some maintenance as it gets caught on the worktop each time you use it. It would be easy not to shut it properly accidentally. Overall we had a great time though and woods stay again

Lovely comfortable and clean property with gorgeous views of the tidal creek.

Kitchen fully equipped and large open plan living area from which to watch the boats passing. Upstairs bedrooms a bit hot but temperatures were in the 30’s outside! A fan would have been nice - otherwise everything you need is there. Helpful guest book and maps etc for details on local beaches and pubs/shops. Loved it and will be back.
