An exceptional cottage!
What a find! Definitely the best cottage we have ever stayed in! It was warm, comfortable and well-equipped. Kev and Sue had left scones, jam and clotted cream plus a pint of milk to be enjoyed with a pot of tea when we arrived. There is plenty of space and it was very clean. Centrally situated for the coast of north and south Cornwall yet in a very quiet and peaceful location. We could live here easily! Didn't want to leave! Would not hesitate to recommend and will definitely be returning.
