This is a wonderful cottage in a beautiful location. Really well positioned for access to both north and south coasts of this area of Cornwall. We really loved the peace and quiet. The enclosed garden was great for the dog. The kitchen facilities were fabulous and we really appreciated the goodies in the welcome pack. There are so many places to viRead moresit within a 30 minute drive - St Ives, Porthleven, st Michaels mount, Lizard peninsula to name a few. Highly recommended. Hide

Nicely presented cottage, very clean and well equipped. Also very quiet except for owls calling during the night. Centrally placed giving easy access to both North and South coasts.
