FLUSHING HOLIDAY COTTAGES

'We arrived at the Blue House after our journey from the West Midlands with our 2 children aged 9 and 14 and our cocker spaniel Maisy. We entered the Blue House and were amazed at the cleanliness and standard of furnishings and appliances. Stuart has an exceptional eye for detail and the property was what you expect to see in a Homes and Garden brochure. Children loved PS3 and the films available. The log burner was perfect for those chilly summer evenings watching films with a glass of wine. The setting of Flushing was an idyllic getaway from our busy lifestyles. Perfect for crabbing off the quay. Use bacon for bait - we caught over 100!!! We went on a scenic coast walk to Mylor, perfect with children and a dog. Upon arriving, we had lunch at Castaways Bistro which was excellent and not too expensive, also dog & children friendly. We jumped across to Falmouth on the ferry and walked to Pendennis Castle. Rick Stein Champagne & Oyster Bar by the Maritime Museum was fantastic. Courtyard garden ideal for dog and a great suntrap. All in all the perfect holiday in Cornwall. '

'We have just returned from a fabulous week at the Blue House. Living in a large city, driving into Flushing Village felt like we were entering a different world...picture postcard gorgeous. Having rented privately owned holiday homes on many occasions, I am all too aware of how the reality of a property can differ hugely from what is promised in the marketing blurb. Not this time...the Blue House was fabulous! The location of it was fantastic and the house was too. The owners have obviously spent a lot of time and money in making the property a 5* holiday home and it shows with top quality modern fittings & furnishings. The character of the property hasn't been compromised though and it has a lovely, homely feel to it. We were fortunate to have a week of glorious weather whilst we were there and the courtyard at the back of the house was great, having the sun from early morning right through to early evening. Flushing itself is lovely & the food at the Royal Standard, Seven Stars & the Quayside Cafe are all to be recommended (all dog friendly too). In summary, I would say do not hesitate to book this property - I guarantee you will not be disappointed!'

'From the moment we set eyes on the Blue House in Flushing is was obvious that we were going to be in for a real holiday treat. Open the front door to be greated with a fantastic modern seaside feel. The recently re-furbished property offers a real seaside theme inside from the excellent choice of decor and fixtures and fittings, beautifully combined with modern appliances such as sky plus, plasma television and modern kitchen appliances. The upstairs of the property was just as impressive with clean bright bathrooms on 2 levels, with a superb shower on the top floor. All storage space was clean and accomadated all our requirments. The beds were very comfortable and the bedding continued the seaside feel whilst being great quality and clean and fresh. We slept like logs. Customer service from the owner was excellent from the booking of our holiday, to the instructions to collect the keys. The house is the perfect holiday hideaway whilst being 2 mins away from the harbour, shops and fantastic local pubs.'

'I spent 5 fantastic days in the Blue House with my friend and her 10 year old daughter. Quite often pictures of a property rarely live up to expectation, but this definitely did! It was extremely clean, well furnished and comfortable. All the information given on the website was accurate and the owner was very accommodating and friendly both in email and on the phone. My friends daughter was really pleased to find a PS3 and a good selection of dvd's!
We ate out at the local pub a couple of times, who had a very good fun Easter party for children, and also in a nice restaurant on the Quay. A few nights we simply stayed in and played cards and relaxed! We took a ferry to Falmouth and had a nice cream tea, and also had a wet but great walk to the beach-you haven't lived until you make sand angels on wet sand in the pouring rain!!! I would highly recommend the Blue House for friends or families. We will most certainly be returning later in the year!'

'The Blue House proved to be perfect for five adults in their sixties. Every modern convenience is provided, including two lovely bathrooms. The house is tastefully decorated and furnished and we all fell in love with it.
We were lucky to have a week of relatively good weather and, as we sat in the courtyard garden on our last evening,
we drank a toast to our return some day.'
