Mrs Hozack
June 2021

“The cottage was super clean and very well equipped especially in kitchen.”

The swimming pool is clean and well maintained. A real bonus facility and good system in place for allocating swimming time for each cottage during Covid so no-one need share pool with anyone else. In lovely setting with great outdoor facilities for children and adults. Good base from which to explore Cornwall. Would certainly return here and recommend this cottage.

“Would definitely recommend.”

Although we could not get any internet connection for the majority of the time, it did mean that we totally turned off but worried about not being able to get calls due to the current situation and ageing parent. Loved the lambs, kept us entertained and plenty of wildlife to observe. Swimming pool was great.

“I understand that the current situation with Covid-19 has meant changes were needed.”

Some of the changes just seem inconsistent and much more red tape than those applied by other similar businesses.

Miss Micallef August 2019

Mrs Rule August 2019

“Lovely welcome & gifts, clean & everything you need from home to home.”

Swimming pool & sandpit was great to have, lovely location to do lots or as little as you want, with lots off information on eating out & places to visit. We all enjoyed getting the fresh milk from the local farm in walking distance. They had a pizza night which we missed as we had plans, but if we had more notice we would have gone as it sounded like a good night. Would recommend this place & if to stay in this area again we would look to book here again, lovely holiday had by all.

“Swallow Barn was terrific and ideally located having the po and play area so close was great for the grand children.”

Very peaceful location with lots of wildlife nearby. The hosts were excellent and not was too much trouble for them and the pizza nights were great. The cottage was so lovely we booked for next year already.

Mr Noertemann July 2019

“Great location.”

Extremely warm welcome by owners, very nice cottage, great facilities (playground and heated pool were amazing, kids loved it). Would definitely book again if we'd spent another holiday in that particular region.

Mr Henry June 2019

“From the very warm welcome and the thoughtful 'gifts', the vast array of leaflets on things to do and eating out recommendations, the swimming pool and loads for children to do, the owners couldn't have been kinder.”

We had a wonderful stay and our dog, Bobby, had a great time (his first holiday). We would definitely return.

Waterloo Farm boasts spacious accommodation with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere and is centrally located for visiting all of Cornwall and Devon, within very easy reach of the sandy beaches and rugged cliffs of the North Cornwall coast. There are numerous award winning restaurants, local food festivals, gardens and golf courses to visit, among many attractions easily reached within the area, such as The Eden Project, Plymouth Aquarium, and King Arthur's Castle at Tintagel, providing fun-filled action the year-round. Alongside the farm with its magnificent livestock and amid colourful hedgerows and flowers, live an abundance of wild birds, butterflies and animals such as foxes, otters and badgers. A wildlife hide overlooks the River Ottery for peaceful viewing outdoors, or should you wish to stay within the cosiness of the interior, the natural beauty can be viewed from the TVs based in every cottage. Webcams have been carefully set up around the farm, so you may just behold swallows eggs on the verge of hatching or baby bats leaving their nursery. There are lots of fun-filled activities on the farm as well as acres of lush Cornish countryside and two miles of riverside walks to explore. Try clay pigeon shooting or river fishing and enjoy the wonderful outdoor heated swimming pool, games room and giant sandpit. Meet the lovely farm animals on-site, to your surprise there may be calves and lambs to feed or eggs to collect, depending on the time of year you visit. Consider a stay on Waterloo Farm for an unforgettable family holiday.
