The house is beautiful. A very well equipped kitchen, spacious bright rooms throughout and very clean. We loved the selection of board games and puzzles, the games room with dart board and table tennis table and the garden space. Close to shops, a few pubs and cafes and the beach only a 25 minuet walk or a 5 minuet drive to get to. We loved explorRead moreing from the house and went on lots of coastal walks to r6ake in all the sights around the area.

We had a superb stay. The house was fully equipped and lacked for nothing. The location meant we did not had to travel far for a beach or town - Padstow, Wadebridge, 7 bays, Trevone Golf Club were all easy to get to. We really liked the easy walk down to to Constantine bay and given it was February, it was wonderful to walk on the beach and the cliRead moreff tops. We spanned three generations and each of us felt very relaxed at the cottage (great for teenagers - they were fully occupied by table tennis and darts). Normally a stay can easily miss small details, it was hard to find anything missing at Bodlowan, even the amount of games to play each evening gave too much choice. We hope to stay again next time in the area. Hide

Bodlowen is ideal for us, its spacious, clean and comfortable and very well equipped. This is our second stay in Bodlowen and well probably return again next year. Our grandsons aged 5 and a half years and 3 and a half years both enjoyed playing on the PlayStation and our 11 month old grandson mastered climbing the stairs for the first time whileRead more we were there. Bodlowen is ideally situated for some lovely beaches Treyarnon being our favourite and is close enough for an evening out at The Fish House on Fistral Beach and Barnabys at Trevibban Mill vineyard and orchards both of which we thoroughly recommend.
