Spacious enough for 6 people .No outlook so cottage is dark. Enclosed garden area good for dog . Whole property although comfortable, tired and in need of tlc. If you want to cook bring your own decent knife. Lane to property is very narrow with few passing places but we only encountered 5 vehicles. Close to St Merryn .

Very spacious rooms with well equipped kitchen and lounge TV. Shower excellent and bed comfortable. Location is via a very narrow farm track that has no lights so need to go carefully. Front garden space ideal for outside dining when the weather is nice.

This cottage is ideally positioned for easy access to the 7 bays, Treyarnon being our favourite and just a 10 minute drive. It is very comfortable and much larger than expected. Well equipped with an excellent shower! Small but very sunny garden. No pubs or shops within walking distance but that suited us as we love the peace and quiet.

Lovely property to stay at. The route to property is narrow and to be taken very slowly, but it's hardly used. Only came across one other car during the week. The place has all the amenities required for a relaxing stay including a large lounge area. Very quiet area and no light pollution either. Fantastic for clear nights viewing the sky at night.Read more Hide
