The safety steps we have taken & how you can help

During these strange times, our primary aim is to ensure that you have a thoroughly enjoyable holiday and both yourselves and our staff are safe throughout your stay.

With this in mind, we have set new cleaning protocols to sanitize the house and contents during each changeover.

We politely request that you arrive after 4pm, which will allow the property to be cleaned, disinfected and our changeover team leave the premises prior to your arrival.

To give you peace of mind, here is a quick round up of the steps we are taking:

Arrival

A key safe is outside so that no face to face reception is necessary. We will telephone you on the day of arrival to ensure that you have found everything you need.

Hand sanitizer stations are located by the key safe, inside at the front & back door & inside the games room, together with one in the loft, should you be taking the 5th optional bedroom.

Undoubtedly soap and water is the safest option and antibacterial hand wash is supplied at each hand basin.

Kitchen

Sorry to say there will be no welcome basket, ie milk, eggs, juice, biscuits etc or laid up tea tray. Please bring your own tea, coffee, sugar and all culinary paraphernalia

We have also been forced to remove the contents of the larder. We do have two sets of salt & pepper grinders, so will alternate these weekly – that is one thing you can tick off your list!

Leaflets & Tourist Information

Again these have been removed, however if you visit our website www.cornwall-luxury-holidays.co.uk and click on “What Shall We do”, there is a link to Falmouth based activities. Alternatively see the Welcome document that will be emailed and see all the local attractions. It might be a good idea to visit the sites listed to find out their opening hours and if you need to pre-book or take any necessary precautions.

Books/CD’s/DVD’s

We believe that removing these items takes away from the homely feel we have endeavoured to create. Please do use them and then place in the plastic quarantine box that is kept in the hall. We will then remove at the end of your stay and replace a week later.

Bed Linen & Towels

There are two complete sets of all bed linen/towels therefore before your stay, we will change pillows, duvets, and protectors, that are all non-allergen. The set that you are using will have been untouched for at least 7 days. Valances have been temporarily removed from beds. All covers are sent to a professional laundry that has their own cleaning protocols in place to ensure that your bed is ready to provide a gloriously restful sleep.

Games Room

Again, there are two sets of table tennis bats & balls and darts so you can enjoy games during your stay. At the end we will swap for another set. Unfortunately, all the board games and outdoor games have been removed so please feel free to bring your own.

BBQ

As in the past, the gas BBQ is provided for you to enjoy delicious al fresco dining. However, we ask that if it is used during your stay, please clean it – our staff will disinfect the handles etc, but sadly time will not allow us to offer a full clean.

Health & Well Being

If anyone is taken ill with suspected Coronavirus during their holiday, the guest should be driven home immediately for self-isolation. Please inform us, as a matter of urgency, and we will arrange to undertake a deep clean of the entire property. We are not able to offer an extended stay at the property.

At the end of your holiday we will ask you to strip the pillowcases, protectors, duvet covers and mattress protectors from each bed and place them together with the towels in the laundry bags provided in the utility room. This safeguards our staff and saves time in order that they begin the next changeover.

We really want you to enjoy your stay and have put the above protocols in place to ensure, to the best of our ability, that you are kept safe.

If you need any further details, please do contact us.

It is even better than the photos. It was just the right size for a family gathering of 10. The views from the house are amazing and it is in a good location for exploring the Lizard Peninsula and nearby Falmouth.

The Lummis Family – July 2020

A beautiful house in a fabulous location. Carol was really helpful throughout the process from booking to checkout, and we had the most relaxing week. Thank you!

The Pearce Family – October 2020

The property is perfect for a big family and a dog. Recommend it to anyone who wants to visit the Falmouth area! We would love to come back

The Smith Family – August 2020
Great property for a family celebration
We were a party of 9 comprising 3 generations and the house was a perfect venue for a special celebration – quiet location, good outdoor space, brilliant facilities for self catering, comfortable rooms and plenty of space. The house was comfortably warm for early March, and the wood burner was a lovely homely addition. The relatively open plan of the ground floor was ideal to ensure children could be observed at play but there was adult space for conversation. Everyone found it a very relaxing place to stay.

Dreher Family – March 2020

A lovely property and fantastic garden. Communication with Carol the owner was second to none. We even had a courtesy visit a few days into our stay to see if everything was OK. Cannot recommend this property highly enough. It is perfect for a getaway from it all stay, especially during this Covid19 pandemic when you can relax in the garden without fear of too many people being around. Just lovely.

The Lavigne Family – August 2020

It was wonderful to arrive at the house after a long journey and find everything in perfect order and just ready for us to move in. The location was beautiful and extremely peaceful. We were blessed with wonderful weather but the house would have been a great retreat whatever storms blew in.
