This cottage is fantastic. If you love the traditional country cottage theme then this is certainly for you! The cottage is simply beautiful , its cosy yet has plenty of room throughout. (I felt the pictures on the website didnt do it justice) The welcome Hamper was a really nice touch and the children wasted no time in devouring the fudge! The lRead moreocation is absolutely perfect with beautiful Cornish Country side all around and yet only 10 min drive to a supermarket. Emma and David are such lovely people and they genuinely want you to enjoy your stay . My wife and I and our 2 children had a wonderful week here and we will certainly be returning. Hide

Our hosts, Emma and David, were very welcoming, and helpful when asked things, but otherewise left us to enjoy this lovely cottage in a blissfully tranquil location. We will return and have already recommended to family.

The cottage was a home from home. A peaceful country setting, with walks nearby for exercising. Goose our dog. We plan to stay again in the future and will be recommending the cottage to friends and family.
