Churn Cottage is a delightful little hideaway. Its small but very well equipped and comfortable, and easy enough to find. Unfortunately the weather was awful while we were there so we couldnt enjoy the outside, but in better weather the garden, complete with wild rabbits, would be beautiful to sit in and enjoy the views.

The cottage is in a great location, making access to the whole of Cornwall easy. It is in a hamlet of only a few houses so is very quiet with rabbits and birds in the garden. There is plenty of space to park off the road. The cottage itself is well equipped, the kitchen having everything you need, a modern bathroom and it was clean and tidy. The owRead moreners kindly left milk in the fridge and scones, jam and cream on our arrival. We had a great stay and would recommend this cottage to others Hide
