Nataliya
Very comfortable for a family of 4 - our kids at the time of our visit were 2 years old and 8 months old. The playroom and little playground were excellent additions to the property. The cottage itself is bright and very thoughtfully decorated with everything necessary for a lovely stay. We could have easily stayed another week or more even! It was amazing.

I can honestly say that this is the nicest place we have ever stayed in. We have two children aged 4 and 2 and the facilities for them were fantastic. The play area outside was ideal for them to enjoy themselves and for us to be able to relax and watch them play. Then an added bonus was the playroom which again the children loved.. So much so they didn't want to see anywhere else in Cornwall!! The cottage is lovely and central for visiting the wide variety of locations nearby. It was immaculately presented and the welcome gifts left for us were much appreciated. The owners were very helpful in giving up information on the best places to visit especially with the children. We will definitely be returning and hopefully very soon. Thank you!
