Pros:

It was isolated and quiet. Attractive room. Had everything we needed.

Cons:

The room had no windows to open and let air in at night ( we left the front door open which didn’t matter because nobody walked past )

Beautiful accommodation in a very peaceful setting.
Pros:

It felt like a home away from home from the minute you stepped in the door. A very generous living space with separate beautifully appointed bathroom and lovely bedroom. A very generous continental breakfast was delicious. Wonderful hosts

Cons:

We couldn’t fault anything about this property.

Wonderful
Pros:

The Junior Suite was awesome, very clean & comfortable. I didn't want to leave! The check in was also very professional, warm and welcoming. Really enjoyed my stay! The property is really large and it was so quiet and peaceful. Also the cats are adorable and friendly, and I loved having pats with the tabby.

Cons:

There was a gym and games room onsite apparently, but we couldn't find them which was a bit disappointing. There isn't much in the way of signage, and it's unclear which buildings contain what and which ones are still under renovation or where you're not supposed to go.

See above.
Pros:

The location and environment. Good size rooms.

Cons:

Very disappointed that there was only a small shaving mirror in the bathroom that could not be used by a short person. A room with a large mirror will be required next visit.

Perfect stay and place to unwind.
Pros:

It was really lovely staying in an accommodation for adults. (NB: I do have and love children however it’s just nice to adult in peace). It was a very tranquil location and a wonderful way relax after travelling for a night. Our hostess was extremely welcoming on arrival and made sure we were settled. We had a welcome drink by the pool and a good continental breakfast package in our room.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

Enjoyed the breakfast fresh milk and juice. The security of the premises.

Cons:

Arrival was a little awkward. Would have been good to have the pin before arrival and not worry the host. May be I didn't receive and see my email as I was travelling weeks before arrival.

Fabulous stay that exceeded expectations
Pros:

Kernot was fabulous and exceeded our expectations. It is a huge estate that feels like a country club and is very quiet. The rooms are beautifully appointed and very comfortable and we were able to use the kitchen to cook meals. We wish we could have stayed longer so we could have enjoyed all the facilities - gym, golf range and pool. We look forward to staying at Kernow again - it will be amazing once all the planned projects are completed.

Cons:

The property is a little out of town but that didn’t bother us.
