Month of birthdays

Its July.

And a rash of birthdays have blighted many mornings in the office. So beware if you drop by – or call the office hoping to get sense – it might be another birthday morning.

All the new team members are getting use to the peculiarities of starting their day with an enormous slice of fresh cream cake and a glass of sparkling wine, before heading off to 6 or 7 hours hard labour in some of the most spectacular houses in Cornwall!

Latest was Eva – or Rusty as she has been named by Caroline – well done, and happy birthday to her!

Now lets get down to some work…..

Our Beach Barbie

A couple of weeks ago, we had our ‘start-of-the-season’ BBQ. This year we went to Trevone and had a great warm evening on the rocks.

I was responsible for food – but left things rather late, and had to rely on Eva and Chrissie to ensure everyone had something to eat.

So what did we eat?

Chicken, sword and monkfish sate with peanut sauce – yum.

Followed by home-made burgers. Perfect. Or that’s what everyone assured me.

A carefully rationed stock of wine and beer ensured the evening went well. With no time for any fun or entertainment over the next 10 weeks (no really!), it was good to get everyone together. Some foolishly even tried to surf!

We have now welcomed our team of enthusastic ladies to join us over the summer. Welcome to Chrissie, Eva, Tania, Rachel and Kat. They join Sam, Annmarie, Caroline and Mark.

And best of luck to Dean and Lisa – who unfortunately have had to leave us after a month, due to illness – we wish them both well and are sure all will turn out perfectly!

Early July PRICE reductions

We just can’t bear any houses to be empty when the weather is so great!

So we are encouraging everyone to make a dash down to North Cornwall and take a few days in one of the great beach side houses still free over the next couple of weeks. Read on… Read the rest of this entry »

Word of Mouth

Raintree rely on recommendations, with families telling their friends and relatives all about Trevose and Padstow, its beaches and area.

When the weather is right, a week at Treyarnon, a long weekend at Trevone, or 2 weeks at Constantine Bay really can’t be bettered. And we thought we would share some of the comments we have received in June.

June and early July really can be pretty amazing!

‘we loved our stay, the house and garden are beautiful – particularly liked having the cake and tea on arrival, and cleaning materials. Very well equipped and good condition.  Thank you’

‘very nice house.  I wish I lived here!’

‘had a great stay, lovely house, perfect location, really well equipped.  Would love to return’

‘have had a wonderful time, loved the house, will definitely stay again, Thanks for the cake!’

‘had a very enjoyable stay and the weather was great.  One of the best houses we have stayed in and is very comfortable.

‘very comfortable house, nice touch with the cake, very impressed’

‘beautifully clean, tea & cake lovely welcome.’

‘the house was just perfect for the four of us and we loved the location. We will definitely be back.
