Sea side perfect
Lovely beach at Millendreath. Lots to see at Looe. Not so much to do when it is raining. A visit to Polperro is a must. Nice accommodation, well appointed, but avoid if allergic to pets hair.

Hillside Villas Millendreath
Had a fantastic stay, we all loved this place! And shall return. The Apartment was clean, bright and cosy with everything we needed. It has a double room and a room with 2 single beds. The Balcony was great for sitting and admiring the stunning views of Millendreath Beach and surrounding area. Only small things are no gate to stop pets (we used our dog crate to block this) and small children as other reviews mentioned so we knew about this. There is also a grassed area halfway down the steps to take dog out early morning and last thing at night if needed. I would also recommend a torch for night time as there is not much site lighting but it is a very safe place. Approximately 34 steps and a 3 minute walk to the beach with its Beach bar open till 10:30 pm and Beach cafe serving food from 9am till 6pm...both very nice and welcoming. Just a note dogs are allowed on the beach before 9am and after 6pm.

Lovely villa, clean and tidy. A lovely home from home.
We loved our stay here. The host very friendly and helpful. The people are lovely willing to help anyone. 2 Minutes walk to the beach which was great for our old dog. Dogs can go on the beach before 9am and after 6pm in the summer. It’s also not to far to walk in to looe , the walk is not for the faint hearted it’s has lots of stairs and hills it is well worth it, we walked in to looe nearly everyday. Lovely views where ever you look. Would definitely go again

What a fantastic 2 x week stay at this homely chalet. It had every utensil you could possibly want or need for making wonderful meals, comfy sofas, wonderful open plan kitchen/living room(so you can watch tv whilst cooking and have a chat).The double bed is so comfortable you feel completely enveloped in its fluffy duvet and marsh mallow pillows - simply divine. I will definitely be going back and must thank sally and Jane for their coordinated communication. Overall - Excellent holiday home. Many thanks Kaz Xx

How to relax
Upon arrival the site manager was rather elusive and it was a cleaner who was more help in answering any questions we had. With no Internet access owing to low or no signal she helped find us wear we were staying and I can't praise her enough. Now apart from this I can only recommend this holiday Village. It's as it says right on a private beach, has a cafe which isn't great but adequate, and a beach bar which is really nice with good and friendly staff and a good range of drinks. The accommodation is comfortable with a good size terrace to relax and just look out to sea.

Great location…fabulous views…lovely resort.
We had a great week in this lovely, friendly, quiet (but popular) resort with fabulous views of the sea and woodland. The coastal walk to Looe became an almost daily ritual. The only negative was the accommodation which was pretty tired and shabby and really not very clean. I’d read reviews that had mentioned this but hoped that during a global pandemic, this would have improved. I didn’t contact anyone as felt that if that was the standard during a time of having extra precautions and protocols, there was little hope :-( We took our own bedding which we were glad about. Would suggest taking a clothes airer too as the one provided is weeny.

Millendreath is an absolute gem
Fantastic break staying in this hillside villa. Views are fantastic and the valley is just gorgeous. We've stayed in the holiday village previously and just love it. So peaceful and beautiful. The villa itself, is a little tired but seems like maybe its a work in progress, hopefully the bathroom is the next priority. Point to note, if you're taking your canine friend, as we did, there is no gate on the balcony so we had to use the patio table to block the gap but also very conveniently located for his bedtime pee is a patch of grass just a few steps down from the villa. Overall though, everything we needed was on hand and we had a wonderful stay. Thankyou.

Fab location , right next to beach , elevated position so great sea views, huge balcony brilliant for the dogs, digs allowed on the beach before 9 and after 6 without a lead , so it was great at 6pm all the dogs playing together on the beach , doggy heaven , but Seaton beach and downderry beach close by allow dogs without leads day and night, perfect size apartment for us , it's not a 5* apartment but you don't want that if you have dogs in there , it's perfectly adequate and comfortable, had a fab stay , would stay again anytime 👍♥️

Major issues with cleaning
Before booking I read the reviews including the ones that mentioned issues with cleaning, but I thought that they were written by people who like to find fault. I have never before in my life written a negative review but on this occasion I feel like I have a duty to inform others so that the cleanliness issues don't ruin anybody else's holidays,l. This is especially important during this time of Covid 19 were cleanliness is even more important. Upon arrival at the chalet I found very large cobwebs in all rooms around windows, curtains, corners of the rooms and even in the kitchen food cupboards. We also discovered a tangerine on the floor between the sofa and the setee. I also found that one of the bedrooms has a sweaty smell and later discovered dirty socks left by previous guests in the inches of dust down the side of bed. I also found inches, yes inches of dust behind the bed. With the amount of dust found I would estimate that it had been years since it was throughly cleaned. I took photographs and sent them to the owner so that they could see the extent of the issue but the owner did not seem bothered and failed to get back in contact with me. The chalet is in a fantastic location and could be a brilliant holiday rental if the cleaning issues are resolved. Unfortunately the cleaning issues ruined my holiday and I did not even receive any apology from the owner. I would not recommend the apartment and I certainly will not be staying there again.

Relaxing week at Millendreth
On our arrival to the property there was a little confusion with our check in time and unfortunately the villa was not ready and had not been cleaned from the previous guest who had left it rather dirty, this was rectified with a simple phone call and 3 ladies arrived within the hour and cleaned the villa to a very high standard. The whole area is lovely with access to the private beach a short walk away. This property is advertised as suitable for pets, the only drawback was there was not a gate on the patio area. Although the Villa has fantastic views of the sea this does come with the drawback of being on the second level with around 30 uneven steps with no lighting at night can be very dangerous. Anyone with small children on the beach be aware we did find several dinner plate sized clear jelly fish believed to be Moon jellyfish. We would very much like to stay here again and enjoyed our week.

Disappointed
After booking I experienced bad hip pain which made the 30+steps to the property difficult. We found that almost all of the equipment in the kitchen had to be washed before use, and one cupboard had mouse droppings in it. There were no mixing spoons, plastic or wood. The undersheet, when we stripped the bed before leaving, was filthy.
