“Fabulous accomodation.”

Well equipped and exceptionally clean. Our second visit to Talverne and hopefully we will be able to return, as as it is well situated for visiting the Lizard Peninsular and and the rest of West Cornwall. Unfortunately the second lockdown was announced just after our arrival but we still managed to really enjoy our holiday.

“Nice, comfortable and clean. Some signs of wear showing”

It's in a nice quiet location at the top of a small hill which gives views overlooking the area. The living room and kitchen are on the top floor and the bedrooms bathroom and ensuite on the lower. Kitchen has all the utensils, crocks, glasses etc you could need, just missing pint glasses. Dishwasher, fridge freezer, double oven with the top oven incorporating a microwave oven which may not be obvious on first glance. Small dining area with enough room to seat 6. Living room has a good sized LCD TV and 2 comfortable sofas, internet connection is reliable and is high speed with full coverage throughout the property. Master bedroom with double bed, dresser and wardrobe and is spacious with a nice view from the windows, ensuite has a jacuzzi bath that runs for a few minutes before cutting off for a while. Also has a shower above the bath. Second bedroom with double bed is much smaller and has a lot less light due to the outside retaining wall. Has a wardrobe and dresser. 3rd bedroom has 2 single beds a wardrobe and dresser, again less light due to the outside retaining wall. Lower level bathroom has a toilet, small sink and double sized walk in shower. Both showers in the property have good pressure. Plenty of parking for 2 cars maybe 3 if the neighbours are ok with this. Patio area is a small area sunken into the ground with gravel under foot with a plastic table and chairs, a BBQ and parasol is provided. Although the property is nice, clean and comfortable it could do with some attention and would benefit from a lick of paint and perhaps a new carpet or 2. There's a strange smell of damp in one of the bathrooms around the sink which is probably due to the tap releasing water from a joint at the side when in use. If you use the app What 3 Words then the following will take you to the front door ///bypassed.reshaping.broom otherwise fire station in front of you then turn left up the hill to the top and you're there. We did look to book again next year but see that the prices have gone up considerably and didn't feel it was worth the current price levels.

“Talverne was exceptional.”

A very well equipped and clean holiday home with very friendly and helpful hosts. The Covid considerations were extremely good.Talverne was ideally located in St Keverne, only a 20 minute drive to the Lizard Peninsula and close to the beautiful Helford River. A wonderful holiday, thank you.

The owners are really close by and are so lovely and helpful. The village has 2 pubs,a shop, butchers, post office and restaurant and is a short walk away. We would definitely return,thankyou .

“I have just come back from 2 weeks in Cornwall and yet again this beautiful place didn't disappoint.”

The accommodation was absolutely perfect, the first moment you stepped into the property you felt at home and comfortable. It was so warm and welcoming, as was the owner she had even provided a lovely welcome pack for us which was much appreciated. This house has everything you will need and the washer/dryer came in so useful after a day at the beach ⛱. The living room looks out on to a spectacular view, you can even see across to St Mawes in the distance. I can find no faults with this property and will definitely be returning. I would certainly recommend to any of my family and friends. The White Hart in the village is also worth a visit, the food was really good and its only a very short walk away from the house.

“Wow this is how all holiday let’s should be”

After a nightmare M5 journey that took 8 hours we eventually found Talverne It’s up a hair pin bend by the fire station Plenty of parking, lovely welcome, amazing views of the sea. We felt at home straight away. The decor is fitted out to a high standard with quality fixtures and fittings. The location is fabulous with great pubs/restaurants only a few meters away Cornwall is my favourite place to holiday in the UK and I must say Talverne is my favourite so far. This is how Holiday lets should be. Our pumpkins are carved ready for Halloween so it’s almost November but the weather is still great.

About the location

ST KEVERNE

Helston 12 miles.

On the eastern side of The Lizard Peninsula, the pretty village of St Keverne, lying just 1.25 miles inland, is the focal point for this area, with its village pubs and shops surrounding the village square, and an impressive church spire, at one time used to guide the Cornish fishermen home. From St Keverne, you can easily explore the natural and spectacular beauty of the Lizard Peninsula by car, bicycle or on foot. You will find walled fishing harbours, tiny secret coves, sandy bays and dramatic clifftop walks along the South West Coastal path. Just north is the Helford River, a yachtsman's dream and home to Frenchman's Creek, and picturesque Helford village. A short walk takes you to Roskilly’s Farm, where you can tuck in to ice cream to die for. Further afield, visit Falmouth, with one of the world's largest natural harbours, Pendennis Castle built by Henry VIII, and of course you cannot miss out on a trip to The National Maritime Museum.
