Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests consistently report that the cottage is spotlessly clean, with only one review mentioning issues with cleanliness. This indicates a high standard of cleanliness is typically maintained.
The location is frequently described as peaceful and excellent for exploring Cornwall, with easy driving to various attractions. The secluded setting is appreciated, although one review mentioned difficulty finding the property in the dark.
The majority of guests find the cottage comfortable, with a cosy wood burner and a lovely bath. However, a couple of reviews suggested that the space might be better suited for solo travellers or that the seating could be more comfortable.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with the property being well-equipped and the garden praised. Some guests mentioned minor issues with maintenance, such as a dishwasher not being clean and chipped crockery.
Many reviews mention the thoughtful gestures of the hosts, including welcome treats like scones, cream, jam, and fresh eggs. While these gifts are highly appreciated, it should be noted that such personal touches, though common, are not guaranteed.

Hosts couldn't have been more considerate. The view of the stars at night in the garden was something else and it was lovely having the wood burner on in the evenings after a relaxing bath. Thank you! We will definitely come back again x
