This great village has it all – a great atmosphere, fantastic restaurants, wonderful coastal walks, lovely people. We recommend you try eating at The Halfway House and The Cross Keys. You’ll get a friendly welcome at The Rising Sun (opposite). Many thanks Chris and Ninon, we’ll be back soon.

Had a wonderful time in lovely, well equipped house. Kingsand beautiful and unspoilt. Extra keys an advantage.

Wonderful house. Beautiful place. Great time had by all. Parking a nightmare.

Thank you! We have had the most lovely week, helped by superb weather and extremely comfortable accommodation. Proximity to The Rising Sun is a definite advantage for finding your way home! And “Who Wants to be a Millionaire” provided hours of entertainment!! We hope to be back very soon, yet again.

A very happy weekend spent in a very comfortable and well-equipped house. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Thank you.

A lovely week spent at Algoma. Lovely house. Had a wonderful wedding at the Fort. Thank you.

We were delighted by the house, villages and views. Having arrived in the dark, the sea view in the morning was a great surprise!! A perfect stay for our friend’s wedding at the Fort. Thank you. 

We had a fantastic time in this great house. Location to The Rising Sun proved very popular with the five blokes in our party!! Actually all the pubs came in very handy! Great location. Great wedding at the Fort. Great company. What more makes a great holiday. Thanks so much. 

We have been to Cornwall many times but this has been the best holiday ever! The house and location were perfect – even the weather was fantastic. All the pubs were spot on (except for the miserable hairy guy who runs The Devonport. Wouldn’t hurt him to go and let his hair down a bit!!!!) The games and videos came in very handy for the children, so much as they don’t want to go home. Hope to return soon. Many thanks. 

Thank you for a fantastic house and holiday! It was amazing to wake up and see the sea! The house has everything you need and is very well situated. The beaches kept us busy every day – especially Freathy and Port Wrinkle. Thank you! 

A fabulous house with great views in a glorious village. Plenty of fun had by all and plenty of room to do it! Thank you very much indeed. A truly charming house which accommodated all our needs. A splendid weekend was had by all. Ta very much from the Wedding Party. 

House nice but parking awful. Cornish people OK but had a nice time. Would come again. Man in shop excellent!!! 

Nice ironing board – shame about the iron. Nice house – shame about the guests! Thank you for everything. Mental pain will ease with time. Been lovely. 

Who cares about the iron – we’re on holiday! Great walks, great wine, great food, but make sure you actually go to the pub that you booked your table at! Can recommend The Cross Keys Scallops. This house is perfect. We are definitely coming back! 

Had a fab week, will be back to explore more in the future. 

 We came for a Wedding to join S & A.  The weather was super for their special day.  We filled the house with fun and laughter.  Good food and drink and trips thereafter. A fishing trip the chaps did make. But not a fish leapt to their bait. So off to the trout farm we did go. Where catching the fish was a lot less slow. After the gutting and bloody mess. A washing machine would have been a bless(ing) ! Never the less we loved Algoma’s bricks and mortar.
And will return come hell or high water? 

We’ve had a lovely time in this beautiful house. Even the weather improved every time we went out! We couldn’t have a found anywhere better for a family wedding. 

A brilliant house for preparing for the Wedding – the dining room table was put to good use in making table decorations, orders of service etc. A wonderful peaceful home with space to both socialise and get away from it all!  From the bride and groom – thanks a lot. Our friends and relatives enjoyed it as well. It’s also handily placed for “The Riser”   

Everything was perfect for our 2nd visit to Algoma, including incredible weather. Good food at Cross Keys, and The Rising Sun offered home delivery service for supper on our last night! Wonderful. Can’t wait for October when we’re back again. And, may I add, the whole family adored being here – especially those of us who used to be householders here!! 

The house was perfect – loads of room and very comfortable. We fell in love with Kingsand and the whole area; it is a well-kept secret. Hope it stays that way. We will definitely be back. It would be helpful to have a “Private Parking” sign outside, as a couple of times we had a problem with someone parking in our space. Just to add…we had a lovely time, especially with our grandchildren – weather was spectacular all week. 

A great house for our large family. (The best of the 3 we have rented in Kingsand/Cawsand). We found and used the washing machine and tumble dryer (not much as the weather was mostly OK). Another front door key would be useful, but we still managed to enjoy ourselves with two! 

We have had a really lovely time. The beds are really comfy. We had a wonderful time and we would like to come back soon!! 

Really lovely! Thank you very much! Just a small thing but is it possible to leave the telephone number somewhere so that people can call us, as mobile phone signals are not good. Other than that – absolutely fabulous! 

First week of Easter school holidays, our third visit to Cawsand but first to this house, clearly the best so far, so thank you!! The weather has been superb, very sunny with clear blue skies. Beautiful coastal walk, Edgcombe Park glorious yesterday. Lots of “chilling out” outside Devonport Inn with G&T in hand watching the world go by. This is a lovely home. 

A great place to stay for our family holiday. The house is spacious and very well equipped. This is a part of Cornwall that none of us had visited before and we loved Kingsand/Cawsand. Many thanks.

A very nice and spacious house in a lovely setting.

It’s a lovely house and it’s got a brilliant view. I love it here and I don’t really want to go!

Nice house, amazing views, lovely beaches. Thanks.

A lovely big house in a very nice neighbourhood. The views are fantastic! I love the beaches too! Thanks a lot.

Beautiful house, stunning views. We to’d and fro’d from Devon farm to seaside. Weather getting better and better – seems a pity to go home! Great place for all the family.

We had a wonderful time in a house that could accommodate us all with ease. Thank you so much!

Lovely accommodation – full of character. Beware the yellow peril!

Family week much enjoyed by all in a lovely, well equipped home. Thank you.

What a wonderful week-end! A beautiful happy Wedding – great weather. Thank you to Kingsand for your hospitality and kindness. Such a beautiful part of the world, so unspoilt and tranquil. Hope we can come back soon. 

The accommodation is the cherry on top. We know Kingsand/Cawsand as we have stayed here before. We were thrilled with Algoma. Thank you so much, it really made our stay away from the urban jungle extra special. We were very comfortable and happy with Algoma, so if you ever want to give it away – keep us in mind! Many thanks. 

Of all the houses we’ve stayed in over the years, this is by far the best. We have had a wonderful two weeks. Thanks you.

We had a great time in Kingsand and the house is fantastic. The house is massive and this is the first house I’ve seen with three floors. I’m having a great time here – thanks a lot.

Great house, great village and really great body-boarding in Whitsand Bay (park by the Fort/ Military Range). 

It is over 30 years since we first visited Cawsand and Kingsand, when the children were about 6 and 8 years old. Since then we have spent many happy weeks in August and October half terms when we met up with an old school friend and her family. Needless to say as the children grew up they had other ideas for holidays, but we adults still came to enjoy the delights of this area. Now, this year they are all back – the children and their children. What fun it has been to watch the grandchildren enjoying the same simple pleasures their parents enjoyed – rock climbing, investigating rock pools, collecting shells and “jewels”- a new era – we will be back!! 

A great week enjoyed by all. The peace and quiet, the friendly residents, sunbathing and one evening watching the waves crash against the sea walls either side of The Institute sending spray the height of the clock tower – the shop photos are real. Our pub recommendation: The Cross Keys (previously The Smugglers) in Cawsand Square. Good food, service and company. 

Wonderful cottage, lovely setting for Christmas with our family from Warwick and Bovey Tracey. Great house – wish it was mine! I have enjoyed myself immensely and feel set up for the New Year. If only we were here longer. “Happy New Year to you All”. (Bigger Teapot required!!) 

Thank you very much. The perfect stay and a lovely location to meet up with old friends and family from the area. The house was very comfortable and everything working fine. Patio a lovely morning suntrap. So many things to enjoy about the house. Top bathroom and annex very nicely done. Thank you again and really hope to be able to book again this year if you get a slot. Best wishes.

A wonderful home where the different generations can disappear, to do their own thing…..   fantastic when there are teenagers and rainy days. A television in each room!! The girls…….and husband have been in their element. It really has been a relaxing week and even more special to be able to share your special home.
Thank you. 

Lovely spacious house. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you for re-homing us at such short notice! 

The house was lovely, very clean and spacious. We especially liked the farmhouse kitchen table. Great evenings drinking with food served from the pub. Three very satisfied men stayed here after discovering Sky T.V.  Thank you for allowing us to stay here, I am sure we will be back. 

Thank you – a wonderful base for a great week. The house and space has been a real treat. Wishing future visitors well. 

4th year back in Kingsand for our annual weeks holiday with the family. Love it. Algoma is a lovely house for a family get together. 

My family has been visiting Kingsand for many years, each time with me missing out due to the dull responsibilities of work and humdrum. However, this year, I now enjoy the trappings of self-employment and what an excellent choice I made to take up my parent’s offer. This house is wonderful. I began to relax the moment I arrived. The layout is spacious (although I have bumped my head on the doorframes times too numerous to mention) the house cannot be blamed for my height. The number of bathrooms means no queues in the mornings or evenings. My two nephews loved the fact that they have their own “suite” at the rear of the house, complete with their own flat-screened TV. The peaceful location; its proximity to a great pub, allowing me to enjoy a pint while cooking dinner is a must for any future resident. The views each morning over breakfast; the walks through the village – all very calming – just the ticket! I look forward to a longer stay in the future. Two and a half days is not enough. If I have any negatives to report it would be the scurge of the motorcar. Where can one park one’s car without having to catch a bus to where one left it?

In conclusion:

                        The house – beautiful and spacious.

                        The proximity to all you need – excellent.

                        The comfort of the rooms – excellent.

I hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did. 

Thought the house was great two years ago and think the alterations have made it even better. 

We have had a wonderful stay in Kingsand. We have had glorious weather and the beaches are great! Would recommend the Cawsand Ferry across to Plymouth. It’s great – just for the boating experience! We have had a great stay here in the house, although the spiral staircase is a slightly scary experience with small children! We look forward to visiting again!!!! 

This holiday was great! Especially the beaches!! We swam in the sea nearly every day. We found lots of things to do around the house. The house is amazing after the few changes and was very homely. I thoroughly enjoyed this holiday and we will be coming back next year! Thanks! Bye Kingsand!

This home is perfect. At one point we had 13 people living in this house. I like what you have done to the house and I like the baby grand. I like the new telly and the bar. I think you have really done well on adding to the house….and yeah! We went swimming in the sea, sometimes in Whitsand. I really like that beach. We found a starfish in one of the rock pools. I love it here! And we will be back soon!

P.S. My Dad liked the fact that the pub is right across the road!  

We have had a wonderful few days in Algoma and our best New Year in Cawsand!! We’ll be back! Fantastic house and location. Thank you. 

Thanks a million. This is a great house. It’s so well equipped and comfortable. We had a great time and will hopefully be back. Please also pass on our thanks to the brilliant staff at The Rising Sun. 

We know Kingsand very well. Loved the house – comfortable, stylish and such a treat to come back to after a blustery day on the beach. We hope to come back again and again. I liked the Sky TV by S.A. Age 7 I liked the keyboard, it was really jazzy by H.P. Age 8

We came down for my daughters wedding at Polhawn Fort and have been delighted with the whole area. The accommodation have been superb, house is brilliant and The Rising Sun will even deliver tea if required – what service! 

Algoma is a wonderful house – spacious and clean and suited all our needs. Kingsand/ Cawsand is an area we have not visited before but I’m sure we will be back. We visited The Eden Project, The Lost Gardens of Helligan, Looe and of course, the Gin Factory in Plymouth. Great time had by all. 

Great place to visit and Algoma is in a delightful position – somewhere we have never discovered before. Hopefully we will return. 

 Beautiful cottage, beautiful location, beautiful weather (mostly!). We loved the big kitchen diner – perfect for a big group. The piano is a novel idea but a little more comfy seating would have been great for lazy evenings. Rame Peninsula walk to the Cliff Top Café is a must (turn off left 50 yards after The View Restaurant). The Edgcumbe Arms was well worth the walk – fantastic food. Locally would recommend The Cross Keys and The Rising Sun.

Thank you – great holiday had by all. 

We came down to Kingsand on Saturday for a family wedding at Polhawn Fort. Algoma is a great house, very spacious and in a great location.

Large table also great for communal dining and also for making our fancy dress costumes for the wedding party.

I liked the big Sky telly – M.M. Age 27

I want to stay another week – C.

I liked the piano, can’t play, but the “demo” button is fun!! L.

I liked looking out of the top window and watching crazy people swimming in the cold sea. The coastal walk to Rame Point Head Chapel is also well worth the walk – beautiful views and not very hard. M. Age 23 

We have had a super stay in this lovely house. Everything was spot on and we have been so comfortable. The weather early in the week was superb – deteriorated towards the end, but we were still able to enjoy this lovely area and hope to be back before too long. Thank you.

A wonderful and spacious, well equipped house in a superb setting. Had meals delivered from The Rising Sun opposite. A great place for large groups and families. Close to the beach. Nice little café down on the front. Would recommend to anyone. 

We all had a fabulous week. Lovely house, all the comforts of home and more! Friendly, pretty village. Unspoilt and peaceful. We came to celebrate my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary and an 8th Birthday and we would all like to return one day. Thank you – we all enjoyed ourselves. 

Fantastic house – ideal!! Had a fantastic time. Kingsand/Cawsand is a beautiful area, although the sea is very cold!! Ice supply in the freezer came in very useful!!! Would definitely come back again.

Such a comfortable holiday home. We have spent the past week exploring the surrounding area – loved the coastal paths either way and the view from Rame. If you love seafood we can recommend a visit to The View restaurant near Whitsand. Lovely quaint village. The Rising Sun pub across the road had a live band on Saturday which was well supported.

I want to live here! I love it! The view is great! This house is too good. I was on the top floor and it was great! The pub kept us awake but I enjoyed peeking through the curtains and watching everybody. I loved the piano.

A lovely holiday enhanced by the lovely house and all the amenities. Thank you. 

Yet again – a fabulous week in a very special place!  Thank you a great house and place. M. 
Great house. The beaches are really nice. I stayed in the top room and it was really good. The big TV is really good. The table is really good for playing games. We have had lots of fun. Thanks. E. Age 12. 

Came with all my lovely family to celebrate my 50th Birthday. Wonderful venue. Never stayed so close to a pub before! Enjoyed running, walking, cycling, canoeing, plenty of eating and the odd drink!! Enjoyed meal delivered from The Rising Sun. 

Wonderful week in Kingsand/Cawsand celebrating our fantastic 50-year old sister’s birthday. Loads of fun – fabulous treasure hunt on Friday. Wonderful daily ritual of coffee and cake outside the Outlook Café – getting soaked by the waves. My mobile hasn’t recovered.

Fantastic atmosphere in house- would love to return!! 

LOVED the house and village – lovely pubs and beaches. Great bar and piano, good kitchen facilities – we managed to have a “fairy cake-off”. We used the boulle set provided, the SKY was well used, the second living room was great, comfortable sofa in main living room and pillows, good that bedding and towels were provided. Rising Sun’s proximity to the house was great – ordered meals which were delivered, went to the pub quiz at The Devonport – ALL GREAT.

A great week had by all – would love to come again – is it available for New Year?!

Algoma and Kingsand were wonderful. Thanks for a great holiday – Party on !! Fantastic house – we all really enjoyed it.

Beautiful and interesting house – pleasure staying in it and great location.

Fantastic house, powerful showers, lovely views and perfect for adults and children. Will definitely visit Kingsand/Cawsand again.
