a quiet retreat
We have stayed here on previous occasions. The cottage is ideal for dog owners who want a quiet cottage with ease of access to the walks in the area.

Peaceful and relaxing
This cottage has everything you need for a peaceful and relaxing holiday in a wonderful place. The garden is enclosed so safe for your dog and there are lots of great walks from the door. I’d say the cottage is rustic which means you can feel relaxed there with your pet. There is no welcome pack which was fine for us as we always bring our own supplies but worth a mention so others can bring their own milk etc. Nicky was great and made sure we were looked after especially when there was a Powercut which was out of their control. We’ll definitely go back!

St Anthony's cottage
Really enjoyed my week at the Lodge. Plenty of walking to be had from the front door, left my car standing the whole week.
Good shopping to be had at Portscatho and St Mawes, also Pub at Portscatho worth a visit, staff pleasant and food very good, this is the Plume and Feathers, The Standard was closed on the day I went so can't comment.
My hightlight was having a Buzzard visit me in the courtyard at the cottage on several occasions, truly beautiful, would just sit on the back of one of chairs quite happily.
Everything in the cottage was very good and compy,
First time I've been anywhere with no welcome gift but Ah Oh, would not stop me from going back
