House holiday rentals in Isles of Scilly

The property matched the description provided, though the photographs give the impression of a larger space. Nevertheless, it perfectly met our requirements. Chris was exceptionally responsive to our inquiries, addressing various questions we had. The area was clean and filled with ample natural light. Our children thoroughly enjoyed the surrounding land for play, as well as the small game room stocked with toys, which was a welcome respite during a particularly rainy and windy day. The on-site washing machine was available for free use, and the washing line proved to be quite useful. Although the outdoor pool was not heated, it did not deter my children from taking a dip and having fun. I would certainly consider staying at this property again.

Great place to stay and was clean and tidy! Responsive and friendly host who helped with recommendations!

We stayed for a weekend and it was perfect. A beautiful property in a very quiet and relaxing setting. Hosts provided all of the information we needed. We will certainly return for another visit in future!

We really enjoyed staying here as a group of five adults and 1 toddler. Plenty of room for us all and having 2 bathrooms was really great. The cabin is comfy and cosy, with beautiful views of the Cornish countryside. We used the cabin as a base to explore Cornwall as it is located centrally within easy reach of many popular towns. We loved coming back to the cabin in the evening and using the hot tub and waking up to the very friendly alpacas! You do have to drive up a very narrow and steep lane to reach the cabin but we were lucky that the lane is very quiet and so we never met any oncoming traffic. We would absolutely recommend and would love to return one day.

Nicola and her husband are such welcoming hosts. It was a truly wonderful place for a break a wholesome experience. Has so much to offer from dog walks, animals, night log fires, relaxing

We didn't spend alot of time there, due to the activities we had planned, but very comfortable and accommodating. Would stay again.

We had such a lovely stay here, it was really clean, in a great location to travel around, lovely amount of space. Would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to stay 😊

We loved our family stay at William’s place! It was loaded with all the amenities that we needed. The kitchen was very well stocked. The heated pool was a great addition when the ocean was cold. The location was amazing…walk into town or take the Ferry across to Padstow for lots of great shopping and eateries. We would definitely stay there again.

Great little place in an unspoilt fishing village. We loved Mousehole. Pros Felt at home. Super comfy beds, great linen & soft towels. We all slept extremely well. Some beautiful lounge chairs. We loved the leather chair in the lounge. Perfect for a morning coffee and the papers! Peaceful and great views of St Michael’s Mount etc. Cons Not many. Very uncomfortable sofa. Few chipped plates Not related to the house but Mousehole. The parking was very tricky. To the point we were unable to park on 2 occasions and my partner had to park quite far out of the village and walk home in the rain very late at night. It’s something to bear in mind. We wish we just got the local bus or taxis everywhere.

We had a wonderful stay. The house and its surroundings were exactly as described – it really does have the feel of a luxury hotel, but with the warmth and space of a home. It’s beautifully decorated, spacious, and welcoming. The views are stunning, and the beach is just a stone’s throw away – perfect for our 4.5-year-old to walk to. Town is also just a short five-minute stroll away. We’d also highly recommend Highlanes Fish & Chips – only a five-minute drive and well worth it. All in all, a lovely stay. Clean, spacious, fantastic views, and a brilliant location.

A blissful retreat, with absolutely stunning views. The Bothy is cozy and well kitted out, and the hosts are incredibly thoughtful.

The most beautiful getaway. The views over the meadow to the sea and St Michael’s Mount are incredible any time of the day and we loved spending time on the terrace. Perfect location for walking, sea swims and east to get into town and explore the Cornish coast. The decor is also amazing with so much attention to detail. Will be back!

Just back from a lovely 2 nights . Rosie’s communication was excellent and let us know when the cottage was ready so we were able to check in an hour earlier. Rosie had supplied , tea ,coffee,sugar some lovely Cornish biscuits and a pint of milk . Also plenty of loo roll , dishwasher tabs , washing up liquid and cloths were provided . ( thought this was worth knowing for future guests ) We took a trip to Marizion and then we walked from the cottage into Mousehole which was lovely , even spotted a seal along the way . Loved sitting in the window seats and reading my book while sipping a glass of wine . We truly enjoyed our little escape . Thank you Rosie

I had the BEST stay in The Hayloft! Beautifully decorated, I felt like a queen in the cosy bed. It was incredibly peaceful, being able to wake up, then sit in the sun with a cup of coffee listening to birdsong 🎶 Susie is a wonderful host! Responsive and friendly, and made me feel right at home 🧡 I love walking and there was the most gorgeous bridlepaths to walk down into Mousehole. I’m feeling wonderfully refreshed after 5nights, thank you so much Susie!! 🩵🩵🩵

My husband, myself and our dog had a fantastic holiday staying at Thimble Cottage. The cottage is beautiful with all the amenities we needed for a relaxing stay. Its location is perfect for local walks and exploring and there is a lovely pub two doors down with extremely friendly staff and good food. Places like St Ives were just a short drive away. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring such a beautiful part of Cornwall and would happily stay here again.

We stayed in the Big Barn for three nights and had an incredible time. The accommodation was incredibly clean and tidy and had everything we needed. Harriet and Sylvain also provided us with some fresh local bread, eggs and milk to settle us in, and left us some handpicked strawberries on the porch which was a lovely surprise! The barn was quiet and private and was just a short walk to Porthcurno Beach and the Minack Theatre. We'd definitely love to stay again!

Corri’s cottage is fabulous, beautifully decorated with comfortable sofas and beds. Kitchen was kitted out with everything we needed to cook on the few evenings we didn’t eat out. Lovely garden with sofas/chairs to lounge on which we did get to enjoy despite some mixed weather. Mousehole is a perfect place to set off on some stunning costal walks which is what we spent our week doing. We also enjoyed dinner at 2 Fore Street, Mackerel Sky & the Tolcarne Inn.

What an amazing find! Utterly private and feels very rural. Even though the lovely village of St Agnes and glorious beaches and towns are only a short distance away! Very cosy and eclectic home with some delicious treats and a bottle of fizz left by Kate and Simon. If you do stay, you HAVE TO use Sunny Spice, whether it’s for takeaway or eat in. Best South Indian food and yummy dosas I’ve had outside of London or Kerala! Thank you for making us so welcome and for the brilliant recommendations of places to go and local eateries.

We had a wonderful time at Rachels cottage. The space is neat, clean, and spacious, yet still incredibly cosy and inviting. Everything is so well thought through – from the comfortable bed that guarantees a great night's sleep to the well-equipped kitchen. Also, a wonderful shower! Rachel is a great host – friendly, attentive, and full of great local tips. It’s clear how much love and care she puts into the cottage, which really feels like a home away from home. The little touches, like books, and cozy blankets are great. The location is perfect, only about 10-15 minutes away from St. Micheals Mount on foot, but the location of the cottage is peaceful and remote enough to fully unwind, yet close enough to explore nearby villages, stunning coastal paths, and countryside walks. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a restful, charming escape in Cornwall!

What a gem! The upper beach house is a fantastic find with the most wonderful scenic view to look out to. The house is spacious, homely and full of all the amenities to feel home from home. The outdoor terrace is a wonderful spot to relax and enjoy the view of the beach. With just a one minute walk to the beach and costal path, the location was perfect. Gareth was a great host, responsive and clear instructions. A brilliant stay!!

Brilliant place. It’s remote but we wanted that. The beach below is beautiful and quiet, a lot of steps so you need to be fit to use regularly! The house is otherwise so spacious and each room having its own en-suite is a huge bonus if you are a big family. It’s also really soundproof so was handy to be up with my young kids and not wake the rest of the house up. If you surf it’s a brilliant spot as Gwynver is a great spot that works well when it’s small everywhere else. And the footpath over to sennen cove is about 30-40 minute walk and completely stunning. All in all a really incredible home, perfect for an active family of wanting to be among the beautiful nature of the far south west. Thanks so much for a really memorable trip

We had a brilliant stay at Lisa's place. The house is perfect with amazing views out to sea and everything is super clean and comfortable. We loved using the hot tub and sitting on the terrace. The garage is very narrow so might not be suitable for a large car, but manageable with a small/medium car. The location in Mousehole is great and Lisa was a brilliant host. Would definitely recommend!

We recently returned from an amazing three-night stay at this stunning home and cannot express enough how impressed we were. The décor is beautiful, with every detail in the home reflecting a high standard of quality. As a group of six, the house was perfect for us with it’s fabulous mix of comfortable/relaxing social spaces and split level bedrooms. We enjoyed relaxing in the beautiful living area with its gorgeous sea views and enjoyed leisurely breakfasts in the lovely dining/kitchen space. The house is incredibly well-equipped, offering everything we could need and more. Although we couldn't explore some of the recommended local restaurants due to being in the local area for a music festival, we wholeheartedly recommend this property to anyone visiting the area in search of a luxurious stay. Communication with Iveta before, during, and after our trip was excellent, providing all the necessary instructions that we needed. Overall, we had an amazing time in this beautiful home!

The road in and out of Golant takes nerves of steel. Just as well River Retreat is worth the drive. A beautiful, comfortable home with a fantastic view. It is beautifully decorated. Claire has an exceptional eye for detail. Everywhere I looked there was something of interest. Kitchen brilliantly equipped for meal prep. Another lovely week in Cornwall. Thank you Claire.
