Notes & Stories

The Classic Guide is our comprehensive guide to things to do, places you must visit and beaches you shouldn’t miss in the South West – in essence our inside line with reviews only from people we know or who have stayed with us.

Holidays are all about memories so we’ve devoted a section of our Web site to holiday stories. As well as recounting some of our guests’ experiences, we also try to give the inside line from staff and local experts on places, events and the best things to do in our area.

Cornwall | Far West Lamorna Cove | Land’s End | Marazion | Mousehole | Penzance | Porthcurno | Sennen | St Ives | St Just Come, let’s walk the loveliest loop on earth. This is the Far West, festooned with hush-hush coves and sand-to-fall-asleep-upon. From St Ives, board a boat to Seal Island, or sing to Sennen from the open-top double-decker to Land’s End. Catch some drama at the Minack Theatre, carved into the cliff by Rowena Cade over 80 years ago. 200 feet below, the sand of Porthcurno and its turquoise duvet rate among the world’s top ten beaches. Meander inland and all three coasts salute you from atop Lanyon Quoit, a prehistoric giant’s table. No matter where you roam, you can’t escape the delirious light.

Linked by lighthouses, the South West stretches from Godrevy on the north coast, over three miles of ochre beach, through lazy lanes to the Lizard.

Surrender to names as sweet as Gunwalloe, Garras, Gillan and Gweek. And when in Gweek, do as Gweeks do, and sponsor a seal at the sanctuary.

There is a large dining-room, a downstairs bedroom (or snug) and steps to the two living-rooms; these offer something for everyone – home cinema, Nintendo Wii and satellite television in the sitting-room, and peace and quiet in the drawing-room.

“ This is our third stay with Classic Cottages (in three different cottages) and it really is the best company to deal with – the Web site is superb, easy to navigate and filter, and the whole booking process is remarkably easy. The follow up services (Reception Details etc) are splendid and very helpful and straightforward. Certainly, I won’t be looking elsewhere when we come back to the West Country again (after our next Classic Cottages stay in September). Faultless.” Mr P J Harris, 23rd to 28th March 2014

More About Your Holiday Picking the Best To ensure our holiday cottages are the best, we spend a great deal of time assessing each one and talking to the Owners before we take it on. We also visit at least once a year and analyse the questionnaires you return to us after your holiday. They are an invaluable part of the process and really help us to stay one step ahead of your expectations. We log every questionnaire received and opposite are the results gleaned from the 4,710 questionnaires returned by 19th August 2014.

Things you should know

The Property

Bed Linen and Towels are included at all properties. A change of linen and towels will be provided weekly for bookings of two weeks or more. Towels must not be removed from the property so you should bring your own beach towels. Also, please bring your own bedding for cots.

Old Properties are full of character and charm but please remember they were built before the days of damp-proof courses and cavity insulation so can sometimes feel damp and, despite the fact that we take special care when inspecting an old property, the occasional damp patch may appear – particularly after a long wet spell. The West Country climate means the air can be very warm and moist at times, leading to heavy condensation, especially in properties featuring natural stone walls. Leaving one or two windows open and letting the air circulate will help and if a dehumidifier is provided to help combat this, please use it. However, as a general rule, we would advise against taking elderly people, young babies, or anyone else particularly susceptible to damp, to an older type of property.

Open Fires and Wood-burners will always have at least the first basket of fuel or logs provided. Satellite Television is available in some of our properties, but the number of channels will vary according to the subscription package. Mobile Telephones may not receive reception in some areas as many of our properties are in locations where coverage is variable. WiFi speed and service can vary and, at some properties, bandwidth is restricted so may not offer sufficient capacity for downloading films, television programmes or music. Please respect download limits and do not exceed a reasonable level of usage. Smoking is not permitted under any circumstances where properties are specified as non-smoking. If any of the above is important to you for your holiday, please contact the office for specific information. Discounts are sometimes available for late bookings and we may be able to offer substantial discounts on last minute cancellations. Please refer to our Web site www.classic.co.uk to see any offers. Many Owners are prepared to offer a 5% discount to those who re-book the same property for a week or more within a period of 18 months.

Dogs (and other pets) are allowed in many of our suitable properties at a cost of £25 per dog per week or short break. Other pets may be welcome at the Owner’s discretion, so please check with our Booking Office for more information. No more than two dogs are allowed unless otherwise specified and are only accepted on the strict understanding that they are kept under control, exercised off the premises, and not permitted in the bedrooms or on the furniture. They should not be left in the property unsupervised as this can result in considerable damage to the property and distress to the dog. Before bringing your dog in the summer you should bear in mind that they are not permitted on many beaches at this time. For further information please contact the local tourist board. Flea treatments should be up-to-date and you should clean up after your pet, including in the garden or any outside areas. The description will state if a property has an enclosed garden, but this does not mean that it is totally escape-proof to all pets – very few gardens would pass this test. We should also point out that pets, possibly the Owners’ or a guide dog/assistance dog, may have been in a property where pets are not allowed, so please do check with us if anyone in your party has serious allergies.

Your Party

Access

Total Number in the Party must not exceed the number accommodated as stated in the property description in any circumstances. Each property can only handle a certain number of guests and only those listed when booking may occupy the property. A cot may only be occupied by a child aged 24 months or less at start of holiday.

Arrival and Departure Times are usually 3pm on the first day of your holiday and 10am on the day of departure unless otherwise specified in the property description and on the Reception Details. This ensures that there is enough time to prepare the property for incoming guests and your co-operation in this matter will contribute towards a trouble-free changeover.

Composition of Parties and Age Limit restrictions apply. We are essentially providing family holidays and we reserve the right not to accept bookings from groups of young people under the age of 18 and/or large all male or all female parties. This policy is not intended to be discriminatory, but is merely to protect our Owners’ interests. Losses and Damages. The occasional accident is bound to happen and any losses or damages during your holiday must be paid for. Before you arrive, your property will have been cleaned, the inventory checked and any missing items noted or replaced. If you find any deficiencies or damages on arrival which have not been noted, it is in your own interest to notify the Owners or Housekeeper, or failing that our own office, as soon as possible. You should also be aware that you have a legal liability to pay for any damages you may cause to the property during your holiday. We ask all Owners to insure the property in respect of the usual risks covered by a building and contents policy and, whilst these policies will vary in detail, the major perils should be covered. However, in certain circumstances, if you should cause any loss or damage by negligence, you could become liable and you would probably not be covered by the personal liability section of your own household policy. Equally, the Owners’ insurance is unlikely to cover your personal possessions. You would therefore be well advised to check on these points with your insurers and you may find that, providing they are given notice, they will extend your normal cover to include your holiday home.

Your Rental Agreement We take great care in selecting the properties we market and in working with Owners who share our views. However, as with all holiday cottage agencies, your rental agreement is directly with the Owners. In the unusual circumstance that the Owners or Housekeeper are unable to sort out any problems you may encounter with the property, we are on hand, but our role is that of an arbitrator. In that capacity, we will do our utmost to ensure that any problems are resolved quickly and to your complete satisfaction.

Access and Parking. If the parking is a bit tight we will include a phrase in the property description such as ‘Private parking for 1 medium-sized car’, a medium-sized car being equivalent to a Volkswagen Golf. Equally, many of our properties are in unique settings, so the access may not be on a metalled road. If the access to the property is down a track, we will state this in the description. Some tracks will be challenging or unsuitable for vehicles with low ground clearance. Please ask to speak to the relevant Property Manager for specific information about your property access and parking. Access for All requirements are accommodated where reasonably possible. Please notify us if you have any special requirements, for example, if one of your party has mobility problems. Each of our properties is very individual so please draw on our personal knowledge so that we can provide you with the relevant information to help you to choose a property that is suitable for your needs. Our property Owners are happy to accommodate the needs of guests with a disability wherever possible.

Privacy Policy Any details you provide will only be used by us. We will never share this information. For more details please refer to our Privacy Policy www.classic.co.uk/privacy.

Quick Reference Icons To help you choose the perfect cottage for your holiday we have added some quick reference icons to the property descriptions in the Brochure:  Classic Green property  Open fire or wood/multi-burner  Dogs welcome  WiFi available

Classic Green We have looked hard at how to reduce our impact on the environment in every aspect of our business. We have created the Classic Green scheme, which identifies environmentally-friendly properties within our portfolio. The Owners of these properties have put a number of green measures in place ranging from composting and buying local produce for the welcome tray to subscribing to green energy tariffs and installing energy efficient heating systems, as well as meeting a core of basic requirements. Find out more at: www.classic.co.uk/information/aboutour-holiday-cottages/green-holiday-cottages.aspx. In addition, we have retained our Green Tourism Business Scheme Gold award (www.green-business.co.uk) for a second term. We are members of CoaST, the One Planet Tourism Network (www.coastproject.co.uk) and have also developed a Green Guide and Web site (www.classicgreen.co.uk). Locally, we take a hands-on approach and run a volunteering scheme so staff can get involved in local conservation projects, including those affiliated with the National Trust, Natural England and the Sustainable Trust.

Our Commitment In all our business activities we will aim to: – Monitor and minimise waste, and reuse and recycle as much as possible. – Use Forestry Stewardship Council 100% recycled paper internally and in our publications wherever technically possible. – Use energy responsibly in our business operations, buildings and vehicles, and use an energy supplier that actively invests in new renewable energy sources. – Promote environmental efficiency in our business travel and transport. – Carbon offset by directly contributing to initiatives like the Woodland Trust and Cool Earth. – Promote best practice to holiday home owners within and outside our portfolio. – Support initiatives aimed at raising the profile of environmental issues. – Use local suppliers wherever practicable. – Encourage our visitors to consider their environmental impact and to support local producers and attractions when on holiday.

What can you do? – – – – –

Keep it local. Winkle out local shops and farmers’ markets. Our Classic Guide Web site (www.classicguide.co.uk) gives ideas for your area. Recycle. Please use recycling facilities where available. The Recycle Now Web site (www.recyclenow.com) details recycling centres near your cottage. Be energy aware. Simply closing windows and turning off heating and appliances when you are out makes an enormous difference. It is good for the environment and will delight your hosts. Leave the car at home. Lots of the loveliest parts of the West Country are best explored on foot or by bike; again, go to www.classicguide.co.uk for inspiration. Please leave only your footprints and, if you see any litter and are feeling brave, put it in the bin.

The prices are specified for Saturday changeover dates. For weekly holidays or short breaks beginning on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday the price for the following Saturday applies. For those beginning on Sunday, Monday or Tuesday the price for the previous Saturday applies. Where two price bands are specified in the description, the higher price band also always applies for Christmas and New Year even though this is not stated in the description. Bed linen and towels are included in the price. In addition, most cottages also include central heating within the price and this should be taken into consideration when comparing prices. There are no extra charges for cots or high chairs where they are listed in the Brochure description. Where an open fire or wood-burner is available, at least the first basket of fuel or logs is provided free of charge.
