From the housekeepers to the maintenance staff, every member of our Cornwall holiday home management team has been hand-picked and trained by us for a service you can trust.
With our 24/7 emergency contact number, we’re always only a phone call away. Not only do we make sure your holiday home gleams, we also carry out a thorough double-check before guests arrive – guaranteeing absolute peace of mind. Our team creates tailor-made house books for each retreat, brimming with insider knowledge.
SUPER-SMOOTH CHANGEOVERS
To achieve that ‘first-ever guest’ feel when
a visitor walks through the door, we:
- Never use agencies or outsource our
changeovers and cleaning. - Recruit, employ and train every one of our
housekeeping staff, allowing us to uphold our
rigorous standards. - Assign your place a dedicated housekeeping team
and property supervisor, who’ll get to know every
nook of your holiday let. - Provide mid-stay cleans for longer breaks and
deep-cleans over the winter months. - Always ask our property supervisors to carry
out a thorough post-changeover, pre-arrival
check of your place. - So you can relax in the knowledge that the key will
be in the safe, the doors locked, the heating set, the
towels fluffy and the welcome pack waiting.
SAFETY FIRST
Guest safety is at the heart of our service. We’ll carry out regular checks on smoke alarms, co2 alarms and fire extinguishers – ensuring everything is in excellent working order. No guests for a week? No problem. We’ll conduct weekly checks of your retreat when it’s vacant (often required by your insurer) – guaranteeing your place is spotless, safe and secure all year round.
We’ll make sure you’re up to date with current legislation for holiday home, including:
• Fire safety and risk assessments.
• Annual PAT testing.
• EICR certificates every five years.
• Gas safety certificates where relevant.
Relax. With Beach Retreats, your haven by the
coast is in good hands.
MAINTENANCE
Electricians, plumbers, TV engineers, locksmiths: a trusted network of skilled tradespeople supports our in-house maintenance team. Whether it’s a hairdryer that won’t work or a broken door, we’re quick and efficient at replacements and repairs. Ensuring minimal disruption to your guests during their holiday, our team always acts discretely. Even outside of peak periods, we’re proactive at maintaining your property inside and out, from decorating and carpet cleaning to power washing and landscape gardening.
We’re also on hand to arrange ad-hoc services for you: think tree pruning, window cleaning, hot tub servicing. Keen to install new features or carry out interiors improvements? Leaf through our little black book of local tradespeople to get the job done right.

your guests, we’ll provide them with a welcome pack

see if everything’s up to scratch – setting the tone for
a relaxing and revitalising retreat.
