“We stayed for 1 week at Bulls Cottage about a week after England allowed for overnight travel so we were the first guests to stay in the cottage for over 3 months.”

We chose it because it was tucked away and isolated but within driving distance of many villages and attractions in Cornwall. We had a great stay here, the host Richard was helpful and friendly. It is very close to the Camel Trail for those who plan to hike or cycle in the area. When we weren't out exploring, we were able to cook, watch movies (there is a DVD player and a drawer of DVDs), and do laundry here. ...

When we weren't out exploring, we were able to cook, watch movies (there is a DVD player and a drawer of DVDs), and do laundry here. The only minor issue was there was some dust and spiders in the corners, but this is likely because it hadn't been lived in for a few months. The cottage is the perfect size for a couple or a family with one or two kids, and was a great value for a week's stay. We'd definitely consider staying here again in the future.

“The Holiday was perfect and the location was as described.”

The cottage was well presented and the owners were on hand if needed,but everything was there so able to relax and enjoy the week.This is an amazing place for walking and exploring the whole of Cornwall.Can not wait to come again.

“The cottage was extremely comfortable, with everything exactly as we would wish for.”

The owners were very friendly and welcoming. The cottage is in a very quiet and out of the way place and was very peaceful and relaxing. Thoroughly enjoyable and highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet week away from busy life.

“It has been a really lovely holiday away from the normal routine for me.”

I went on my own. I felt so welcome at Bulls cottage, and found the recommendations from the owners such as the camel trail and visit to Padstow and to Fowey -so helpful. I am not familiar with Cornwall nor do I have friends or family in the area so to have the owners on site was great for me. I saw them on occasion when I was going out and about. They are there if you need them otherwise you have the property to yourself. I thought the facilities and the location were outstanding. The beds and seating areas were very comfortable. I had everything I needed. Thank you.

“This place is amazing.”

Bed was really comfortable, everything we needed was there. The dog had a great time too! The properety is ideally placed for walking or trips to the coast and there are some great local Inn's providing good/excellent food at reasonable prices. The lane to the property provides an interesting challenge initially, but we soon got used to the steep incline and blind bends. We will definatley be back.

“We had a lovely short break at Bulls cottage, we only wish it could have been longer.”

We hope to return.
Mr Sullivan September 2018

“We really enjoyed our stay at Bull's Cottage.”

It is well appointed and cosy. We stayed in October so could not sit out in the garden or use the bbq, which must be wonderful in summer. It is well placed and we were able to get to all tourist attractions easily. Cleanliness rating a little down due to cobwebs, but then it is Autumn! The approach to the cottage is not for the faint-hearted. We got used to it, but perhaps it needs to be made clearer, as I could imagine that others might be challenged.

“Cornwall Holiday”

Stopped here 26.08.16 to 02.09.16 after finding it on the Sykes Cottage website in January of this year. Not been to Cornwall for years so this year my husband, daughter (11 years) & I decided this was the place for is & to top it off we treated the dog to a holiday too!!! What a gem of a find Bull's Cottage was. Very, very rural & no pubs or shops within walking distance so it's a case of make sure you have all the supplies you need of a night/day but this didn't bother us as we were out all day & came back at night & relaxed on the patio area & the owners even provided a stake & wire length to attach the dog too as the garden isn't secured. The cottage itself is open plan, lovely conservatory, with a double bedroom in the eaves upstairs & a twin bedroom downstairs with patio doors on to the garden. Very nicely decorated, light & airy & very homely with everything you need. Washing machine was very handy & also the fact linen & towels are provided helps make packing a little lighter. The owner, Richard, a lovely gent, lives at the back of the cottage in a small cluster of cottages & is on hand for whatever you need. Well worth a visit if you're in the area as quite central to all the seaside areas & towns of interest to visit ..... A very pleasant stay & thank you for making our Cornwall holiday one to remember

“Absolutely brilliant place to stay”

We stayed there for only 3 nights, should have been more. The cottage is immaculate, everything one could need was there, it has a beautiful aspect and if you like walking, you'r in for a treat. Richard, the owner, lives close at hand and nothing we required was too much trouble for him.A couple of points which I need to mention though, my wife is disabled and can't walk very far, so for a nocturnal visit to the bathroom the 12 steps down & up from the master bedroom was too much, so we had to sleep in the second bedroom with 2 single beds on the same level as the bathroom. You really do need a GPS/Sat' Nav to get about, as all around the cottage are more or less single track roads (I reckon a Range Rover is about as big a vehicle as you can safely get around in) and I would have never found my way there or back from our coastal visits had I not had one. But these small obstacles, which wont really be a problem for most folk, I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a REAL "get away from it all" holiday.

“Unique cottage in pretty setting.”

This is a very well planned cottage and everything has been thought of to make your stay enjoyable. It is absolutely immaculate. The owner, Richard, lives near and nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommend.

About the location

BLISLAND

Bodmin 5.7 miles; Wadebridge 8.4 miles; Polzeath 13.2 miles; Tintagel 13.8 miles; Padstow 16 miles; Fowey 17.2 miles.

Situated under the western edge of granite-bound Bodmin Moor, the village of Blisland retains its age old character and is the only village in Cornwall to have a village green with trees. Around the green, cluster old houses and cottages, as well as the famous, award-winning Blisland Inn. The village is located less than three miles from the A30, and so provides an ideal central location for touring Cornwall. Nearby, Poley’s Bridge marks the beginning of the Camel Trail, a 17-mile long route, which follows a long disused old steam engine railway line to Padstow. The route is completely traffic-free and perfect for walkers and cyclists. You can even explore the trail on horseback and a purpose-built hide has been constructed between Wadebridge and Padstow, so even birdwatchers are catered for! Pull on your walking boots and explore Bodmin Moor, or venture to the coast with your buckets and spades and enjoy a day on one of the many beautiful beaches that stretch along Cornwall’s northern coastline. A fabulous part of the country for all!

Note: Max. occupancy 4 (including infants).
