Patrick and Tracey were the perfect hosts and welcomed us on arrival , and with flowers and Cornish Fairings on the big kitchen table. Lots of room for 7 of us Took a bit of getting used to driving around single track lanes( with pull ins) but it added to the experience. We had read about Annie’s Pasties and we tested them out twice and they were certainly the best we had ever tasted. Visited St Ives , where we had been many times, but had not experienced so many people, and social distancing was impossible .

“A very roomy and tastefully appointed old farmhouse.”

Patrick and Tracy are very friendly to humans and extremely dog friendly. Set in a quiet location with wonderful views, there are many enjoyable walks from the farmhouse all dog friendly and lots of garden and land on the farm for a dog to run around safely. Many dog friendly pubs, restaurants and attractions nearby. Wonderful! We shall be back.

“A beautiful cottage with so much space.”

The facilities were immense as we're the grounds. Patrick & Tracey are a lovely couple and always there if we needed anything. When we arrived there was some delicious scones, jam and cream waiting. We saw the two dogs Alfie & Herbie, and a beautiful white cat called Nev often through the week. We strongly recommend this beautiful cottage to anyone who is thinking of booking it. There were lots of games to play in the cottage, so on the rainy days the children still had fun. They also enjoyed the table tennis. Patrick took our youngest granddaughter to see the chickens and she was so happy to have such a fresh egg for breakfast. We aim to book one of the smaller cottages next year. Thank you Patrick and Tracey for such a lovely week in the best cottage we have ever stayed in.

“Patrick and Tracy made us very welcome and were friendly and helpful.”

We all had a great family holiday and the children loved the huge garden.

“Old farmhouse is amazing we loved it!”

It’s in a good location not far from anywhere. The owners have made it a real home from home - we always have scrabble championships when we go away but realised half way there that we’d forgotten it, when we arrived there was a cupboard with loads of board games & scrabble was one of them!
