We are anxious to get it right so welcome feedback from you stay. We have had a fabulous first year of letting with wholly positve feedback, we hope to welcome back many who booked in 2011. Feedback is mostly about comfort and amenity, however we have been suprised how many comments we have had about the situation of the house, its convenience & quietness.Chy Kembro is a non smoking property and we regret to say we do not accept pets.

Harold & Lisa Johnstone MI USA 13th-20th May
Our stay in Chy Kembro and the locale of P Isaac has been pure pleasure, lovely house, amazing views and a charming village to explore.
We have been very pleased in how thoughtfully and how well the house is furnished and equipped.
The Redman Family, Dec 2011
Thank you so much - the house was perfect for our week's stay, and we have had a great week in Cornwall. It is great to know you have somewhere warm and snug, with a great shower and warm fluffy towels, to return to after a wet and windy walk on the beach! We will definitely be back..

About the owner
We bought this house with the proceeds of the sale of our family home after our father's death. We named it Chy Kembro, Cornish for "House of the Welshman" in deference to his roots, and know he'd be tickled pink. Our association with the village started many years ago in 1965, when we spent our first magical holiday here...and never looked back. I now live in Port Isaac & run an Interior Design business, which skills have been put to good use project managing the reburbishing of this house to meet the high standards we aim for.
We love the area, and still spend nearly all our leisure time here together! In all we think its perfect for a family holiday!
Year purchased: 2010
Why the owner chose a home in this location
Fabulous cliff top walks, endless sandy beaches and teeming rock pools number among our reasons for choosing this stretch of the Cornish Coastline. Its still possible, if you don't mind a stretch, to get away from the holiday crowds even at the height of the season. But the evenings in Port Isaac buzz with people enjoying the sights, sounds and the excellent food. Port Isaac has lots of interesting shops and galleries including a lovely Pottery set in an old Chapel. Fresh seafood can be bought in the cellars, there is a bakery and a well stocked Co-op 5 mins from the house where there is a cashback service.
Unique benefits of the property
As the sun drops down in Port Isaac it's quickly hidden behind the hilltops. Our house is set above the village, with wonderful surround views and gets the best of daylong sunshine. Whilst very picturesque, the tiny crowded streets of the lower village can be very noisy for a small family. Yet we are within 5 mins walk of the busy harbour! The house does not have a parking space, but has an unloading bay, parking is in the garden of the house four doors down the road, we pay the fee.
