The cottage delivered a fantastic Cornish experience which we will cherish for years to come. It has authentic character and charm while still having all the essentials for a comfortable stay.

What an awesome place! It was much larger than we thought split over 3 levels. Middle one has the front room and kitchen, downstairs twin room plus sun room and bathroom. Top floor twin room and king bed plus shower/bath and separate toilet. Beds were extremely comfy too. So close to all the amenities.
