We had a wonderful stay at Cowslip Kabyn. Peter the host made us feel very welcome. The property is clean, comfortable and quiet making it a perfect place to enjoy a relaxing break in Cornwall. We will definitely be back!
Great property in a super location. The lodge is clean, really well equipped and the outside space is perfect t if you are bringing children or dogs. The location is great for access to town and a short drive to all the local beaches. Peter and his wife weâre great hosts and really communicative ensuring we had an easy booking and check in process and that we had everything we needed during our stay.
Great little wooden cabin with everything you need for a relaxing getaway.A warm welcome from Peter and Caroline with plenty of tips on local amenities.Very clean and comfortable.
We had a wonderful time at Cowslip cabin , the property was well maintained and the photos didnât do it justice as the property was larger than what we were expecting . The garden was perfect for little humans to run around on and release some energy . Pete the host was very responsive to our queries . Would recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing holiday
We had a lovely stay! The property was exactly what we needed, was family friendly, well located, and interaction with Peter was always very helpful/positive.
On location, we had lots of green space safe for the kids to play in, we were really well located for amenities in Hayle, Carbis Bay, and St Ives. We also had miles of beautiful coastlines, wonderful beaches, and lots of walks to choose from.
Our only criticism is that quite a few of the plates, pans, and cutlery items appear to have been left dirty (presumably by the previous occupants) and this necessitated a bit of unexpected cleaning.
However, this is relatively minor (there is a dishwasher too), we wish we had booked a longer stay and would definitely go back.
The holiday flat (Cowslip) which was our home for 2 weeks was a super little flat, very clean on our arrival with everything one needs. As described in a prior preview, we also received a nice little "goodie" basket. There is enough storage room to pack shopping away etc and plenty of fridge space. The bedroom cupboard had enough shelf and hanging space for all
our clothes. As someone else wrote that the bedroom is a little dark, but didn't bother us. The fire alarms in both holiday flats are interconnected with one another so one is safe should a fire break out in either flat. The washing room was right next to our flat which was most convenient. There is also a washing basket with pegs for each flat to use. We locked our bikes to the fence infront of our flat, probably not necessary because the place is very safe. There is a huge lawn infront of the flats, so plenty of run around space for the kids. A reminder to all visitors that it is a non smoking area on the entire premises, we didn't read the fine print, but Peter and Carolyn allowed us to smoke once we asked.
The only negative point, well 2 actually, is the distant noise from the highway situated about 500m away, it is not that loud, but is mostly there, depending on wind direction. The other is the Gas cannons that go off in the fields to scare birds, sounds like someone wacking a carpet with a broom stick. That is a little disturbing but one gets used to it, not Peter nor Carolyns fault.
We had a great time and super chats with Peter who also gave us stacks of tips on what to see, where to eat, pubs to visit etc and much more.
Thankyou both very much and we look forward to staying again.
Perfect for a week break in south west Cornwall close to some of the best beaches in the uk. Highly recommend for a family of 4 with two young kids for a great value self catering option.
Kabyn was wonderful, the grounds were wonderful and so were the hosts, so friendly, good people with tips on where to eat etc, loved that we were away from the hustle and bustle and that family could visit us anytime, kabyn facilities were spot on and plenty of soft towels, can't wait to book again! Nice outside wood furniture too ;o) Thank you for a wonderful week in HAYLE
Lovely place ,owner was very friendly .Ideal location if you have a car , and had most things you could need. Lovely welcome basket of biscuits crisps, and coffee pods for the coffee maker as well as a pint of milk.
Only very minor niggles , no full length mirror ( this could be rectified by attaching one to the back of the bedroom door. The bedroom is very dark, even with both bedside lamps on, and the two wall lights , really struggled to see to do hair or makeup ( I know first world problems) the natural light from the window doesnât really help.on a dark morning really struggled to see anything .
The fire alarms are linked to both properties, and twice we had to endure the next door neighbour setting hers off, later into the evening .
The front door to the cabin has no blind or curtain on it, which I think it could benefit from especially as the laundry room is right next door, and the view is clearly visiable from here , which I felt un-nerving especially when dressed in bedroom attire and wanting to sit on the sofa( looks directly out)
That said just minor things which I think could improve the place. Would happily rent again , nicely done , close to Hayle village and a great fish and chip shop.
Perfect from start to finish. Stayed twice now. Will definitely be back next year. Perfect hosts for a wonderful stay. Well equipped and wonderfully clean.
It was a great stay and we would like to go back. The only little problem was that the property was not completely child safe. It was necessary to look after our son, 23 months, all the time.
A lovely, clean cabin with all the facilities You could possibly need. Property manager was friendly and always available with any queries we had. Would definitely recommend staying here!
Reccomend it for a week stay as we only managed to stay for 3 days. The cabin is great, very clean and cosy. You have everything you need plus a nice terrace and views. The owners were also nice and friendly. We would definately come back to recharge our batteries.
We had a great time.
The property standards was 10/10 from the bedding to towels etc, all mod cons.
Very clean and everything worked as it should.
Lovely views and the owners were very nice people.
Definitely recommend as a great place to stay.
We stayed here last year to be able to spend time with sons and families. Great that we can use the grassy area to play with the children. Plenty of space to picnic. Also very secure and private.
When on our own we love the peacefulness of the location. Thanks Pete and Karen
This is a very lovely 'Kabyn' set in some beautiful grounds. Everything was spotlessly clean with crisp white bed linen and soft white towels. We found everything we needed in the accommodation. A very quiet and peaceful place to stay, but also within easy reach of Hayle and St.Ives. I would definitely recommend Cowslip Kabyn.
Property was all we could wish for! Little touches and friendliness from our EXPERIENCED Hosts, proximity to the beach & amenities; were all a welcome bonus.
A lovely, cozy and clean cabin, set in beautiful grounds. Met with warm and welcoming owners
Very good. Owners are warm and welcoming. The welcome basket was a nice touch and the cabin was well catered for. I would recommend this cabin and stay again
Lovely cabin very cosy & great location. Peter was a great host very welcoming & ensured we were settled etc. We was even welcomed with a basket full of tea coffee, crisps and biscuits which was lovely! Everything was perfect and considering itâs December the cabin was lovely and warm, heaters warmed the cabin up in no time! We have two toddlers and it was very child friendly! We all Had a lovely New Yearâs Eve break and will definitely be returning! Thankyou for having us
