Guests say
The Kilns in St. Austell, Cornwall, is a well-received cottage, praised for its cleanliness, friendly management, and spacious living areas. It is a recommended choice for large groups and family holidays, with some thoughtful touches like provided bread and milk.
The property is generally described as clean and well looked after, with only a minor mention of cobwebs.
There is insufficient information to accurately score the location, as reviews are mixed or lacking detail.
Comfort receives mixed reviews due to the firmness of the beds, which were too hard for some guests, although others found them comfortable.
Facilities are adequate with a well-equipped kitchen, though some guests noted it was small for a large group and there were issues with hot water and water pressure.
Guests appreciated the thoughtful provision of essentials like bread and milk, but as these are not guaranteed for every stay, expectations should be managed.

Roche and neighbouring Lanivet both have a small selection of shops and taverns and are located six miles from Bodmin, close off the A30. Agriculture is the main industry in the area, and the terrain is lush, green, and undulating. With the wild open spaces of Bodmin Moor just six miles away and the ruggedly gorgeous north coast with its rocky coves, steep cliffs, and superb surfing beaches just thirty minutes by vehicle, it's ideal for seeing the rest of Cornwall. The resort town of Newquay, with its new Fistral Beach surf centre, and the fishing village of Padstow, with its narrow streets, quaint harbour, and renowned restaurants, should not be overlooked, as should the fabulous Eden Project, with its spectacular biomes full of tropical plants, just four miles away.

Stayed in the Linney a few times previously under previous owner, this was first time in the Kilns. The only negatives I have is that the ensuite downstairs there seemed to be no hot water to the basin and the poor water pressure in the shower of the ensuing. Otherwise we love the property .
