Superb customer relations


Harbour Holidays pulled out all the stops to accommodate us when we arrived in Cornwall to find the cottage we had booked with another operator was unsuitable. Despite it being five minutes before the office closed, Aimee found us alternative accommodation which was ideal. Superb professional customer relations. 5, Trevibban Barton Barns is very well furnished and equipped and we would thoroughly recommend it.

Cider Cottage in Padstow with Harbour Holidays

We rented Cider Cottage in Padstow through Harbour Holidays. The cottage was beautiful and spotlessly clean. Harbour Holidays communicated really well with us before our trip and provided an excellent digital information pack about the cottage and local area

Another Fab holiday in Padstow.

We have booked with Harbour Holidays for many years and find them to be helpful, efficient and great to deal with.
The most recent property we stayed in was called Stowaway.
A great place with everything you would need. Great Camel Estuary views.
Highly recommend Habour Holidays for your Cornish stay.

Harbour Holidays Trenoder

We have booked through Harbour Holidays before and were confident to book another holiday with them. Trenoder was great. Immaculate property, super clean with a great view of Trevove and the sea from the first floor living room balcony. The property could do with a full length mirror and a few cleaning products for the kitchen. Small things but important. We are already looking to booking our next trip to Cornwall

Comfortable well equipped and affordable accommodation

We've been booking our holiday in Padstow with Harbour Holidays almost every year since 2003. The price has remained reasonable throughout that time. Each time we've visited, often twice a year, the house has proven spotless and comfortable on arrival, with all the facilities you could reasonably expect. The cottage (Dingly Dell) is set on a hill some distance from the harbour and Camel Trail, but is quiet and affordable as a result.

It was okay

It was okay, nice property and great location. Shame that the outside area has been neglected, not very inviting. It would have been nice if a few extra bits that we normally get such as kitchen roll, cling film etc and some cleaning products would have been included.

The house we stayed in was ideal

The house we stayed in was ideal, a quiet area but not too far from the harbour area, very clean and tidy and all the amenities you could wish for, if we return to Padstow again we would definitely look to stay at Stowaway once again.

Highly Recommended

We’ve been using Harbour Holidays for many years to secure a property to rent in Trevone. Always found them very easy to deal with and go above and beyond to accommodate our needs. They keep us informed when payment is due and provide a comprehensive guide to the property we stay in. The house suits our needs perfectly and always clean and tidy. Would highly recommend Harbour Holidays.

Perfect week in Padstow

Just back from a week in Padstow, staying at a house on Duke Street. We’ve been to Padstow 2/3 times before and always booked through Harbour Holidays. Communications is always good, the properties have all been great and the new mini portal is excellent - everything you need to know about the property, local area, access and departure information all in one spot. We even made use of the discounts HH secured.
We were very pleased with this years property, everything was provided and the kitchen was exceptionally well stocked with utensils etc, beds were comfy and we were just 1 or 2 minutes walk from the harbour front. Perfect location, great holiday. We didn’t want to come home.

Third trip, excellent as always

We’ve just returned from our third holiday booked with Harbour Holidays. Once again our entire experience was positive. The holiday cottage (Sundance) was perfect for our family of four needs and Harbour Holidays were organised and efficient throughout the process of booking, arrival and stay. Thank you.

We had another absolutely wonderful experience with Harbour Holidays and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!
We come back every year and are definitely serial returning customers, which really says it all about the consistently high standard they provide. In fact, we’re already booked in for 5 weeks next year… and maybe even more!
From start to finish, the customer service is excellent. The team are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always quick to respond to any questions we have. What really stands out is their personal approach – it genuinely feels like they care about making every stay special, and that makes such a difference.
Communication throughout is clear, warm, and thoughtful, making everything completely stress-free. It’s rare to find such a high level of service combined with such a personal touch.
The whole experience is always made even more memorable by the stunning surroundings – especially the glorious sunset we enjoyed during our most recent stay. It truly topped everything off and made for another perfect getaway.
Thank you again to the Harbour Holidays team – we can’t wait to be back again later this and next year!
