Sustainable Property
Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.
The owners were very welcoming and cleaned the cottage to a very high standard. Place was warm, great layout for a family of three, with off-road parking for one vehicle.

"Had I known the route to the cottage involved navigating a mile of single vehicle track every single time you left the property I would’ve found alternative accommodation."
I drive a large vehicle and this daily challenge took the shine off the holiday. Also both pathways both front and rear are overgrown meaning the front entrance could not be used at all and we had to use the lawn to enter the property from the rear. Aside from this issue the cottage itself was lovely as were the owners

"Lovely cottage and the hosts were very welcoming."
You won’t regret booking this one. It’s quiet, clean and the beds were very comfortable and we found it a really good base to see Cornwall. Kitted out with all the stuff you may not have brought for cleaning, etc..
Only thing to note, the 2nd room has a sky light which hasn’t got a blind to prevent morning sunlight coming through and to high for a black out blind - meaning the kids were up even earlier! Apart from that the cottage was perfect.

Step down from garden to back door large which can make it difficult for people with mobility issues.

Didn't feel very dog friendly with the number of restrictions in place despite paying a lot of money for the privilege of bringing our dogs..

"In the details of Halvasso Cottage, it should explain that the second bedroom with two single beds is particularly small!"
The two beds are against the wall on each side and space down the middle for you to access your bed is about 5/6 inches! Therefore only one can get into bed at a time! There is nothing in the details of the cottage to say that there is no wardrobe and no cupboards or drawers! The only hanging space is one hook on the back of the door. The room is also so small that you actually cannot shut the bedroom door as it cannot get past one of the beds. We had to share our friends wardrobe and drawers in the main bedroom. Very difficult as we had to ask our friends if it was ok to come in and put our clothes away and, in the morning, to ask if it was ok to come in and get out our clothes in the morning. There is no room at all to leave clothes on the floor, not that we wanted to do that! Our shoes we left in a bag in the lounge to try and make life a little easier! I would suggest that the cottage is only suitable for a family with small children or just one couple. If a family has two children of age, say, 11 or over, it would be too small.
As the access to the cottage is from the back where you park the car, the path down the garden to the back door is overgrown with lovely roses and flowers but, if it has been raining you either walk through the wet grass or brush past soaking wet roses and bushes to get to the door. It is a small thing but annoying if raining. We did mention it to the owners when returning the key but the gentleman said that his wife loved the beautiful bushes, roses etc. Access can be made at the front of the cottage but as the car is parked at the back, it makes more sense to use the back gate.The lounge and kitchen are absolutely fine, comfortable and clean, it is just the upstairs and maybe some garden maintenance would help! I hope this feedback is helpful to you and would appreciate your comments.
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. The owners carefully monitor the comments from their customers and will always take
the appropriate action based on the general consensus of opinion.

The cottage itself is well presented with a good selection of items to make it feel like home from home. We particularly appreciated the efforts the owners put in to accommodate us having a baby and also the Covid related measures necessary at this difficult time. The bottle of wine, milk and chocolates on arrival, together with the owners both popping round to check we were OK were also greatly appreciated. In terms of location, if you stay here, the Pandora Inn and Herron Inn are both relatively close and good pubs to visit. Kynance Cove is further away but a must if the weather is good. Trelissick Gardens and Trebah Garden are also both close and great for a picnic in the sun. I'd also say book early and rent a boat on Helford River. It's a great way to see the stunning Falmouth estuary which is on the doorstep of Halvasso. Thanks for a great stay. Best.

The property
Halvosso is one of four traditional quarrymans terraced cottages situated in the tiny hamlet of Halvosso.
Peaceful and secluded, yet a mere mile to the main road to Falmouth.
This cottage has timeless charm, is decorated in a modern country style and enjoys first floor views over the countryside towards Falmouth Bay.
Scenic, rural walks can be enjoyed from the front door or head out for a walk along the coast paths.
The port of Falmouth is less than a 10 minute drive and as well as daily provisions, offers independent shops, restaurants, traditional inns, galleries and wonderful beaches.
Renovated to a high standard, by the owners that live across the lane, Halvosso offers a cleverly designed kitchen, a wonderful living room with enormous inglenook fireplace with welcoming wood burning stove and dining table.
Stairs to the first floor lead to the family bathroom (bath and shower over) and two well presented bedrooms, a well appointed double and small, snug twin.
A gorgeous well screened sun trap of a garden is to the rear of the property along with parking for one car.
The really ancient town of Penryn, now home to the Combined University of Cornwall, is 10 minutes away and if interested in architecture, is worth a visit - there are many ope ways with pretty cottages to view and a dinky town museum.
The hidden coves and fishing villages around the Lizard Peninsular will fascinate, and closer by, the stunning sub-tropical Trebah and Glendurgan gardens are a must.
Halvosso is a great choice of holiday home at any time of year and would suit a small family or group of friends wanting a peaceful relaxing holiday.
Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

Further along the Penryn River, just one mile towards the sea you’ll find the famous seaport of Falmouth, with a host of things to keep you entertained including harbour-side pubs and eateries offering spectacular views, stunning Blue Flag beaches and a bustling town centre. Visit the National Maritime Museum for a taste of Cornwall’s sea-faring history, or the fine Tudor fortress of Pendennis Castle, superb set gazing out to sea.
