Lovely cottage

We had a great stay at the cottage - it was clean and warm with a comfy bed. It's location is ideal for people looking to explore Cornwall - only 10 minute drive to Falmouth and a 45 minute drive to most places further afield like St Ives, Lands End or the Lizard. I would stay here again!

Lovely little cottage

Very convenient to be able to rent 2 cottages side by side to holiday with friends. Small but with everything you need and in a lovely quiet location. Recommend the New Inn pub down the road for a nice pub meal too.
