Painters Cottage 2-Bed Chalet Free Leisure Passes

The property was clean and comfortable, lovely location and scenery, and value for money.

Nothing

Painters Cottage is in the heart of the John Fowler St Ives holidaying site, surrounded by woods. The chalet itself is cozy and has everything you need for a family of 2/4 (depending on age). 2 smaller sized bedrooms, toilet/shower and kitchen/living area. It was quiet and snug, hot water on tap with a good shower. WIFI was good and strong. We stayed for 7 nights, 2 adults, 1 child (12), and 2 dogs. (August 2025) There are various places to eat locally, as well as a stables (my daughter rides), shops and cafes. Local supermarkets are close enough too. We didn’t use the onsite entertainment as John Fowlers are notoriously not good, but we don’t bother with that stuff really anyway, did use the pool which we had to book through the John Fowler app. Great place for walking and to walk the dogs. Lovely and quite site with plenty to do. Onsite laundry facilities too, as well as a little shop which is a bit pricy.

No freezer…. Which is essential for a longer stay. We managed for 7 nights. The TV could have been bigger, and needed a better location/bracket. TV channels need re-ordering (remotes need sorting out, 3 for 1 telly that all do different things 🤣) Door was a bit stiff to shut/lock.

Very cosy and comfortable

Nice setting

A bit small and damp
