The accommodation was lovely, very secure for the dogs and lovely large enclosed garden. It is a lovely location but is quite remote in the sense that nearest shop and pub are a drive away. That said there are wonderful walks from the property through Cornish Mining heritage.Check in an out was simple and the hosts are lovely.

Ideal chill pad quiet with nice grounds cosy living room lovely bathroom and comfy bed. This place is ideal in summer and I imagine would make a great winter retreat We needed to stay an additional night as the cottage wasn’t available the owners offered us the option of glamping next door which we tried they were very accommodating and the guy onsite was more than helpful I would recommend this to anyone with it’s central location it’s ideal for roaming about without to many long journeys

Cornwall break

This property was in an ideal location for us. Rural , peaceful and outdoor secure space to let our dogs out. The interior balanced character such as the fire place with modern design like the under floor heating which made the rooms very cosy without direct heat. The finishes looked very modern and new and the property was very well equipped. Thanks for hosting 👌

The cottage was lit with fairy lights & a Christmas tree, a lovely touch. the welcome was amazing, with bread, milk, cereals, spreads, clotted cream, butter, tea, coffee, sugar & mince pies. There are TV's in the kitchen, bedroom & living room. The main bed was the comfiest I've been in. There's heating, but also the option of a log fire. The only small issue was it was hard to find in the dark. A beautiful place, dog friendly with a large enclosed garden.

Wow, the accommodation was lovely everything you need home from home, only downfall there was no freezer!! but that wasn’t an issue. Lovely big garden for the our dog to wonder around. Fresh eggs straight from the farm at the end of the drive. Very quite location, easy access to Truro, Redruth, and surrounding area’s. Only down fall we found was you had to travel to find a takeaway, so it’s best to have dinner out, and just something light in the evening. .

A great base for exploring the county

The cottage was great and a perfect base for exploring the region. Very clean, well stocked and Jules and Phil are on site to help with anything if needed. If anything the pictures don’t do it enough credit. A sunny garden with bbq and seating? The cottage itself was warm, modern and cozy but plenty of room for a family of 4 & the pooch In an 8 day stay, we took in st.Ives, Padstow, Fistral, Newquay, Perranporth, Crantock, Mevagissey, Falmouth and Treyarnon…All of which were within 15-60 minutes from the cottage Couldn’t fault it

Enjoyable Cornish summer vacation

Jools & Philip both provided a warm welcome and were always available should there have been any need. Communications to finalise arrangements and answer questions prior to arrival was excellent and always timely. The property was ideally located for our family holiday with travel times of 30-40 mins max to Newquay, St Ives or Falmouth, as well all our favourite beaches along the north coast, with closer facilities for shopping and food in Truro and Redruth. The property itself was clean, comfortable and had everything (and more) that we needed to make this our home from home. The garden was a good size, with ample space to play and relax, as well as enjoy a few BBQ’s. Would happily recommend and would definitely return in the future.
