The house was clean and spacious. We also really enjoyed the grill outside. The parking was easy. The owners (Claire and Derek) were welcoming and friendly. Thank you so much for a fantastic stay, and for the eggs they were lovely. We hope to see you again in the future.
Donna
A beautiful home from home plus more - a roaring warm fire, scones, tea, milk & more on arrival! Welcoming hosts who catered for every need. Definitely be booking here again.
Patricia
Beautiful wished we stayed longer. Exceptional hospitality and just a dream that will be heartfelt. Gold stars from entering being welcome to leaving. The cottage just star quality and the scenery of the landscape garden delux. Fell in love and never seen anything so amazing. Definitely returning at some point and a gem and worth while booking. Highly recommended just to unwind from the pressures of a busy lifestyle or just for anyone seeking the Cornish magic within a short distance of coastline, historic places at the end of the day you can have peace within the beautiful landscaped garden of incredible dragonflies and elegant goldfish/koi fish. Artist paradise.
