The location is wonderful, affording us different activities every time - from culture to culinary to cliffside. The house is always reliably clean and welcoming, furnished beautifully and with every utensil one could need. There are lovely thoughtful touches too, such as flowers in a vase and good quality linen sheets. We met the professional cleaner at the end of our stay, and she couldn't have been kinder to us. We joined forces with another family for our stay this year, so there were three children between 1 and 4 years old staying in the house, and it was perfectly equipped for them. The internet is powerful and reliable too! We wanted for nothing, and had the sea and sunshine pouring into every room.This is a house to fall in love with. ##### Daisy B.

Katherine, the host, was brilliant at quickly replying to my many, many queries and (as someone who has lots of allergies) it was great to find a truly dog-free house. The house is beautifully situated, with nature so close by - we saw a charm of 26 goldfinch in the hedges one day and a badger on several evenings. Even though a few days were stormy the house was lovely and warm, clean and comfortable, with everything we needed for a perfect holiday. We would love to return some day. ##### Michelle T.

Sep 14, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A glorious get-away Vessacks is situated in the most beautiful spot: perched on the edge of the village, overlooking the sea, it has a big place in our hearts. It only takes a few minutes to get to the little cove from the house (harness your inner mountain goat!) and there you are, on a very uncrowded, sandy beach. It is easy to walk to a larger beach, down the hill at Porthcurno (or across the clifftop path) and of course Penzance, St Michael's Mount, St Ives, all are within easy reach. It's an absolute gem, sadly now extremely expensive, but a truly lovely place to stay. ##### Catherine B. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maggie W.

The owner was unbelievably attentive, kind and communication was first class. Views are incredible, the sea, wildlife, the most wonderful place to unwind and relax. Clean, modern, top class tranquil accommodation with every facility you could ever wish for. Rooms having stunning views, are very spacious and luxurious. Walks are just a step outside the front door. We will, without a doubt recommend to friends and family, and hope to return very soon. Thank you very much Vessacks. ##### Maggie W.

Furnished to very high standards with lovely details all over and very spacious (the kids played being trains and postmen running marathons around the staircase and the "inner rooms"). Didn't need the TVs since the stunning view had us transfixed from day one. It is the perfect place for - days at the beach (seals might pop by!) - long (or short) hikes - visits to Minack Theatre or just hanging out reading a book. We hope to be able to come back! ##### Ingo G. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### NICOLE J.

We and our friends, a total 8 people between the age of 14 and 52, had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful house with these lovely and stunning views for 2 weeks. Eveything was perfect, from the very well equipped kitchen to the clean and modern bathrooms and the bedrooms with most comfortable beds. The communication with Katherine was always uncomplicated, very friendly and extremly helpful. Exploring Cornwall and its many picturesque villages, coves and beaches made our holiday a very special and rememberable one! We recommend the Vessacks to all who are looking for a relaxing and unforgettable vacation, away from the hustle and bustle of this world :-) Thank you for a wonderful stay and till the next time!

Aug 22, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Simply Beautiful Exactly like the pictures, the cottage has magnificent views. Lovely and clean and Peter, the owner, was most attentive, calling us to check everything was working and as we expected.Vessacks is in an ideal location for the Minack Theatre, which we visited for two performances, walking there quite easily. Porthchaple Beach is nearby and requires sturdy shoes to access. We also visited Pedn Vounder beach, which requires your inner mountain goat skills to get down to! The roads are not for the feint hearted and can be quite challenging depending on the size of your car. All in all we had a lovely week here and have made lots of fond memories ##### Susan W.

Jun 24, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Glorious Vessacks We have been returning annually to this property for over 10 years and it never fails to inspire with its special magic. It is the perfect setting for our many memorable holidays with glorious expansive sea views. For us time stretches out here and we never want to leave. This house is most comfortable with every amenity. The three separate sitting rooms provide generous space for our large family. There is always a place for peacefulness and solitude as well as noise and fun. We found the bedrooms spacious, clean and so comfortable. Three of the bedrooms provide those wonderful views into the turquoise waters below. The large picture windows in the main sitting room and the sun room with windows on three sides are favourite spots to commune with nature, the weather and seascapes. But the views, comfort and tranquil space are only part of the reason we return regularly. Badgers, foxes, birds, glow worms and other wildlife are always close by. We saw basking sharks on three successive years in the Porthchapel waters just below the house. Seals and porpoises are regular visitors as well. I enjoy the beauty of the wildflowers along the coastal paths, so profuse in June. Our binoculars are always to hand and there is always a great deal to see and observe. Vessacks is real Cornwall and we love it! P.S. The owner kindly organised free entry into the Telegraph museum which gave a very interesting picture of local and telecommunications history. ##### Stephanie S.
