Lovely location and a homely house, would be happy to stay again.
Ms Bevan-Cotton July 2019
Above expectations. Fabulous place. It was expensive, but it was perfect. Loved the peacefulness of the place. Although the owners live on the same site, we didn't see them. Lovely cream tea on our arrival... much needed after a 7 hour journey there. We were a family all arriving from different parts of the country and at different times. My sister arrived earlier and was allowed access earlier than stated, so always worth asking if you arrive earlier. The weather wasn't great - UK weather, but the lounge was huge and we spent nights in playing board games. We had taken our own, but everything there, including books etc. Scored satisfactory for reception services as not sure what this is. If it's about how we were greeted then this would be excellent as stated above. ...

The cottage was Perfect. literally 10 out of 10! Fantastic setting and gardens, equipped to a very high standard, and nothing was overlooked. The owners are lovely and totally approachable - and the cream tea on our arrival was a lovely touch. I couldn't recommend it highly enough - and we hope to return very soon! ...

Perfect location to explore this side of Cornwall, within easy reach of many starred tourist attractions such as The Eden Project, Pendennis Castle, Trelissick Garden, The Lost Gardens of Heligan and many more. The owners of this cottage have clearly given every consideration to the comfort of their guests. This was evident from the outset as we were greeted with the most delicious Cornish cream tea. The bedrooms are airy and bright and adequately furnished for holidaying visitors, with the inclusion of a hairdryer in the master bedroom. A spacious enough property to allow for everyone to be together if they wanted, or to spend quiet time to themselves. An abundance of jigsaws provided evening entertainment, along with a few board games too which were supplemented by some from home, a raucous time was had by all!! The kitchen is equipped to the highest of standards with a utility room at the other end which not only had a stand alone cooker, but a very necessary extra fridge/freezer and space to feed the dogs. The hot tub was a particular bonus after some hard days of walking to relieve tired muscles. The dining area by the kitchen was perfect for family meal times and a good place to play card/board games. It was a joy to be able to see a very busy bird feeder outside of the kitchen window and numerous species visited. It took us a while, but we quickly worked out that the bird noises we were hearing were coming from the kitchen clock which marked the hour by a different bird call. Some might find this a little annoying, but on holiday it brought a smile to our faces!! The outside area is perfect for all, plenty of space for children and dogs to run around. The owner keeps the grass well maintained and the landscaping is delightful. The walk down into the valley and lakes from the property was so peaceful and tranquil, such a joy to hear the birds sing in the stillness of the countryside. The testament to this property is that everyone wants to come back again for a family holiday; everyone got along with each other which isn’t always easy when your ‘children’ are grown up,in their 20s and 30s, with grandchild in tow too!!...
