“The cottage and location were brilliant!”

. A few minutes walk to a lovely cove which out of season allows dogs so a great start to the day. The cottage had everything you needed, lots of thoughtful extras, clearly the owner really cares and this was much appreciated. We had a superb week and a much needed rest.

“We thought that the location of Driftwood Cottage was particularly good having a very rural feel (with the beach and country walks right on the doorstep) but with all the facilities of St Austell less than 5 mins drive away.”
