Lovely visit

A wonderful stay in this part of Cornwall. Property was lovely and we had the comfort of the garden being totally enclosed for our two dogs. A great Pub within a 2 minute walk and location was perfect for nearby Polperro, Mevigissey, Fowey, Charlestown etc

Fantastic cottage - spacious, light, warm and has everything we needed for a great holiday. The kitchen had a rangemaster which was really nice to use, and the large family room (dining room/lounge) was a really lovely space. There are enclosed front and rear gardens which was perfect for the dog, and nice walks/runs right from the door. We met the hosts a few times and they were lovely and helpful. Would love to come back

Beautiful holiday cottage

We had a wonderful week at Brookside cottage. It was comfortable and peaceful and the garden was very beautiful. Having the Polgooth Inn a short walk away was an added bonus too! Perfect location for the Eden Project and exploring the local area. Our hosts, Geoff Jeanette were very welcoming.

A lovely family home from home

Were all really impressed with the property, rooms much more spacious than the photos suggested, and exceptionally clean. Very good location with many activities and tourist attractions within easy reach. Geoff's communication with us was great, as well as both he and his wife Jeannette being friendly neighbours on hand if needed. We will definitely be looking to book with them again when next visiting Cornwall.

Stunning cottage, wonderful hosts - highly recommend!!!

We genuinely cannot recommend this cottage enough. It is a beautiful property, with stunning gardens. The house was spotless and had everything you could need. It's much bigger in real life than it seems in the photos and felt very spacious for four of us. The hosts are very friendly, helpful and went out of their way to ensure we had a comfortable stay. We are so grateful to have found this property last minute - it really is a gem. Absolutely will be coming back!!!!

Outstanding stay

Geoff and Jeanette are warm hosts who go out of their way to ensure you have a comfortable and idyllic stay. Cottage is outstanding - I was immaculate and beautiful. The garden is magical. Pub 200 yards away and a cute small holding adjacent. Tranquil and private setting. We took our dog and the stair gate they installed helped. We had a wonderful stay. We will definitely be back. Thank you.

Nice spot for our familiy holiday!

We enjoyed our two week stay at Brookside, a peaceful place with a beautiful green closed garden, a nice house with a large kitchen, a nice design of the interior and enough space for 5 people. From here we started our visits to the next beaches and gardens. Dear friendly and helpful hosts, thank you!

An incredible stay

We cannot fault this cottage and the hosts. The cottage itself was immaculate when we arrived, you would not know there had been previous guests there that morning. The welcome pack was very generous and well received. The cottage and gardens were beautiful and in a lovely, peaceful location. The hosts were incredibly kind and friendly, even getting our washing off the line for us while we were out which we were very grateful for when it started raining! The cottage was lovely and spacious with everything we needed. We would 100% recommend and would love to go back soon.
