Perfect stay in a remarkable cottage!

We had a very pleasant stay in a topnotch clean house. Yes, the environment doesn't look hospitable the first moment you arrive but the neighbours are very friendly and we had a 100% great stay. Absolutely recommendable!

Exactly as described

Beautifully appointed exactly as per the photos. Extremely well equipped. The host has thought of everything you might need. Truly a home from home. We had a dog with us and even his needs were taken care of! Would certainly stay here again if we are in thr area 😊

Absolutely lovely

This was a lovely cottage equipped with everything you could need...even a 1000 piece jigsaw that was a great occupation on a really wet and windy day. I felt straight at home there. Also really well located for visiting that part of Cornwall. Very handy Co-op just over the road. Recommend highly. Thank you

Fantastic Holiday Accommodation

This property is a great place to put your head down before venturing out for the day. It is extremely well presented. Parking 2 big cars will be tight but doable. We had a c-max and a polo so not a problem really. Set back off of a main road so not much noise at all. Stones throw from local shops and a pub, what more could you ask for. My dad is 81 and the fussiest person alive, so for him to say he really loved the cottage is a real testament to the quality of this property. Thanks to the owner Yolanda for making our family holiday something special.

Sehr liebevoll eingerichtetes Häuschen

Wir haben uns direkt wohlgefühlt, das Häuschen ist liebevoll eingerichtet und liegt ruhig und in unmittelbarer Nähe zu Restaurants (hauptsächlich Take Away) und Supermarkt. Der Kontakt mit der Vermieterin war problemlos und nett.

Sehr nettes "cornish" Ferienhaus

Wir waren als fünfköpfige Familie eine knappe Woche in diesem Ferienhaus und haben es sehr genossen! Es verbindet klassische britische Reihenhausarchitektur eines kleinen Arbeiterhäuschens mit moderner Einrichtung, bequemen Betten und einer Ausstattung, die es an nichts fehlen lässt: Von Pfeffer & Salz über unterschiedliche Kaffee- und Teesorten bis hin zu einem Fön, Badesalzen für ein entspanntes Bad und sogar Hundehandtüchern war alles da, was man brauchen könnte. Durch die zwei Kaminöfen im Erdgeschoss war das Haus schnell warm und gemütlich, sodass wir auch zwei Regentage gut hier verbracht haben. Da das Haus in 2. Reihe steht, hört man vom Verkehr der Durchgangsstraße nichts. Die unmittelbare Nahbarschaft wirkt zwar nicht ganz einladend, wir haben uns aber zu keiner Zeit unsicher oder unwohl gefühlt. Einzig das Einparken mit einem großen Auto vor der Tür war anfangs etwas experimentell, hat dann aber gut geklappt. Die Kommunikation mit der Besitzerin war stets schnell, sehr freundlich und unkompliziert. Wir würden dieses Ferienhaus jederzeit weiterempfehlen und wieder besuchen!
