“Wonderful property - a true find.”

We went out of season and were able to enjoy the fantastic coastal path which is just a few strides away. The cottage was well equipped, beautifully clean and so convenient for the village. The big bonus for Port Isaac was the parking space - a rare commodity. Loved every second of it.

The cottage is charming. It was so fresh and clean; well furnished and comfortable, a real home from home. Its position within Port Isaac is ideal and of course the parking space was invaluable. Thank you Mary, we had a wonderful holiday.

“Absolutely fantastic little cottage.”

Lived up to every expectation from beginning to end. The owner Mary kept us updated with everything for check in even letting us know when cottage was ready so we could check in early. When she found out we were there for our wedding anniversary she even sent us a card. Would recommend this cottage to anyone and we would definitely come back again

Linda August 2023

“The Keep Pot was an idyllic stay from the flowers, wine and chocolates for us on arrival to the 60th birthday balloon and lovely card which our host left since she knew it was my birthday week.”

The Keep Pot is by far the most comfortable accommodation we have ever stayed in and the bonus was of course being able to park your car at the door in Port Isaac as the parking is extremely rare in this stunning old fishing village. Mary has thought of absolutely everything and the cottage is truly a home from home. The lovely garden at the back of the cottage was beautiful to sit in the evening with all the gorgeous plants in full bloom as the weather was very kind to us for the whole week. We will definitely be returning to this beautiful clean quaint property. Well done Mary and thank you foe a fantastic time

- Linda, August 2023

“Beautiful cottage with everything you could need for a relaxing and comfortable holiday.”

It offered parking which was a real positive. We particularly liked the little “snug” upstairs to sit and admire the view with something nice to drink in hand! Great location with good eateries and great walks along the coast and inland. Perfect!

- Elizabeth, March 2023
Stephen March 2023

“Our first visit to Cornwall and we couldn't have chosen a better location.”

Lindsay January 2023

“Our stay in The Keep Pot was great!”

It was well-furnished, had a comfortable bed, everything we needed. There was a shed available for us to keep our bikes in, and the parking was a real bonus in Port Isaac - our Skoda Octavia was fine parking there. Google maps took us to the door! Mary was very welcoming and we felt at home. Perfect place for a couple, we would certainly go back.

- Lindsay, January 2023
Jane January 2023

“This is the most well equipped cottage we have ever stayed in and all the kitchen equipment was usable and clean.”

The owner has thought of everything. The cottage was lovely and warm and we did not feel the winter cold at all. Port Isaac is a lovely base to stay at and we had a wonderful winter holiday. Very satisfied and would recommend.

- Jane, January 2023
Allison December 2022

“Our stay in the Keep Pot was a real home from home.”

From the first second we entered the cottage when we were welcomed with flowers, a beautifully decorated table for 2 with candles and a bottle of mulled wine. Mary has this cottage decorated to a highest standard, I could not fault it. The kitchen was well stocked, even baking tins! If you fancied you could bake a Victoria Sponge! Or two. The location was just perfect, off the main drag so no traffick noise and plenty of parking space for our BMW 3 series. Mary is very attentive to her guests, in fact I don't think I have ever felt so well taken care of. And would not hesitate recommending this property to anyone wanting to visit Port Isaac. If I could give this cottage more stars I would, and will be keeping the details for this little gem for my future visit. Well done to Mary you have excelled in providing both me and my husband our best ever stay

- Allison, December 2022

“Our third visit ,absolutely love this Cottage, can't fault it ,will definitely return again.”

- Valerie, September 2022
Helen September 2022

“This was a great little place to stay and we were very comfortable.”

So much so that the wet weather didn’t bother us a bit. Its right in the middle of port Issac but with parking and no traffic noise as on a small side road. The little garden up behind was great too for sitting out away from the courtyard. We always looked forward to coming home after a day out as we knew we’d be warm and super comfy. And that’s without the heating on. If there is one thing, ( and this is nit picking) a towel radiator in bathroom just to dry the towels would have been great. The owner clearly loves the place and the extra touches such as flowers and wine were much appreciated. All in all a great little find in a great place.

- Helen, September 2022
Ray August 2022

“Great little cottage.”

A home from home. Beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. Very clean and comfortable. Would love to return sometime. Highly recommended.

“The Keep Pot was a home from home.”

We had everything we needed to enjoy a perfect stay. Hopefully we will return again to enjoy another wonderful holiday.

- Deborah, July 2022
Barry July 2022

“Although the cottage was very homely we were very disappointed that you had to leave the cottage via the front door and walk a fairly steep slope to enter the back garden , for that reason we did not use it sadly and secondly the presence of dozens of grown and young seagulls around the whole courtyard area was not good to be fair .”

...the noise was 24/7 and EVERY day my car and the surrounding area was covered in seagull pooh , with the weather so hot you could not leave any windows open ......sadly the points we have raised are not mentioned in your booking description , for that reason we would not stay at this property again regards Barry Gorman

- Barry, July 2022
Robert June 2022

“This is a super cottage with parking right in Port Isaac.”

Mary the owner has thought of everything you could possibly want for your stay and you can feel the love she has for this place. The only negative from our stay is the constant racket from the nesting seagulls on the roofs opposite. They can keep up the din all night !

- Robert, June 2022
Linda May 2022

“Our second visit to this cottage.”

...Well looked after cottage with everything you could wish for........Cant fault it.....The only downside of our stay,is that we didnt see any filming of Doc Martin...But this little gem is my Happy place..

- Linda, May 2022

Kevin December 2021

“What a superb cottage Mary has Faultless condition and facilities and tastefully decorated for the festive season The private parking, which accommodated our Ford Mondeo estate, was a real bonus.”

Being at the top of Fore Street the location could hardly be better with just a couple of minutes walk to pubs, restaurants, and shops. 10/10, we would stay again

- Kevin, December 2021
Peter December 2021

“Great location, beautifully decorated and extremely well equipped.”

Cottage was tastefully decorated for Christmas, down to cushion covers and towels, and bottle of sparkly in the fridge. Would highly recommend.

- Jackie, September 2021
Diane August 2021

“The cottage was perfect and everything you could want was to hand.”

You have to be a bit patient with the TV but that was explained. No WiFi but again that was explained and was a bonus to get away from. A wonderful stay in your wonderful village. Many thanks.

- Diane, August 2021
Robert July 2021

“What a beautiful stay in this lovely cottage.”

We arrived early and had already had a text from Mary saying it was ready from 1.45pm .it is the best equipped place we have stayed in . So homely , parking is a massive advantage as Port Isaac has limited space . PORT Issac itself is quaint but with so few pubs or restaurants you need to book places before you travel . The Old School House restaurant was a fantastic meal if a little piece. Plenty of places to visit within 10 miles . Tintangel,Wadebridge, Boscastle all with visiting . Just over the top of the hill is PORT Gaverne which has an amazing beach and 2 great pubs , and you get a free Tuk Tuk back up the hill in the evening. All in all a fantastic holiday .Mary is very responsive to all messages . No WIFI in the cottage if that suits you but you can get it in pubs .

- Robert, July 2021
Samantha June 2021

“The Keep Pot was everything we wanted the owner Mary is a credit.”

Everything was spotless, location excellent and parking such a bonus in Port Issac. Meals in village and Mary's recommendations were spot on, but you absolutely have to make reservations, don't rely on the pub as this does not open every day and sometimes stops serving food. The only minor thing for us was the bed was to firm, lumpy and creaked every time you got in and out or moved, so a new mattress is definitely needed.

- Samantha, June 2021
Robert June 2021

“Great location with bonus of parking.”

The attention to detail in this cottage was way above what you expect in a rental property and shows how much the place means to the owner. The only negative was the lack of mobile coverage (Voda) so felt a little cut off.

- Robert, June 2021
Susan May 2021

“Lovely cottage in great location.”

.very high standard of cleanliness and comfort..can definitely recommend the keep pot .port Isaac and surrounding area is beautiful with lovely walks,beaches and pubs...

- Susan, May 2021
Charles May 2021

“Lovely cottage in a brilliant location.”

The owner has decorated it superbly with sea-side themed ornaments and decor - charming! Did miss having wifi as the mobile signal was also non existent but can soon pick up urgent messages on visits to restaurants and shops. Only improvement would be a stronger flowing shower, ideally. Otherwise all absolutely lovely and disappointed it was not available for the same week the following year.

- Charles, May 2021
Wendy April 2021

“Everything about this cottage was faultless,comfortable,clean,and everything we needed was there!”

We’ve even booked to go back next year!keep up the good work Mary and you’ll never be short of holiday makers visiting you in this wonderful cottage in this idyllic location!

- Wendy, April 2021
Valerie October 2020

“The cottage was beautiful, loved the decor ,it was clean and very comfortable, we were left a bunch of flowers and a bottle of wine which was a lovely touch .”

Port Issac is a lovely place with everything we could want within walking distance, we will definitely revisit .

- Valerie, October 2020
Susan October 2020

“A beautiful well equipped cottage.”

Furnishings to a very high standard.Attention to detail by owner excellent. This is our 3rd stay here and have already booked for next year. A rare find.within a cul de sac with private parking area. Ideal location for visiting the North Cornish coast. Would highly recommend .

- Susan, October 2020
Margaret September 2020

“Our second stay at The Keep Pot and as previously we would'nt hesitate to recommend to others.”

It exceeded all our expectations especially during these surreal times! The owner is a credit to her exceptional high standards.

- Margaret, September 2020
Stephen September 2020

“This is a perfect cottage for a couple.”

Everything is provided, and the owner has gone to great lengths to provide cleaning materials and appliance information. The cottage is ideally situated, just off the main road but within 5 minutes of the harbour. It goes without saying that anyone visiting Port Isaac will no doubt be aware that the harbour is at the bottom of a steep hill, and cars are not allowed. This is why the Keep Pot location is so good. Parking outside is a real bonus in this location. We would throughly recommend.

- Stephen, September 2020
Jackie August 2020

“The cottage was excellent, for location, comfort and cleanliness.”

Mary had all you needed in the cottage for a stress free holiday. hand gels and cleaning antibacterial sprays to help with covid guidelines. all in all a perfect retreat.

- Jackie, August 2020
Glenn March 2020

Charlotte February 2020

“I would have liked the option once paid the deposit to pay in installments, or even by a different card prior to the full balance needing to be paid The Cottage, and the owner however, are amazing, and we can't wait to go back.”

The best cottage we have ever stayed in in fact, from any company. Mary must be congratulated on her outstanding home.

- Charlotte, February 2020

Teresa November 2019

“The Keep Pot is lovely, brilliant position in the village.”

Superb facilities. Everything done so that you feel welcome, even wine and flowers waiting on arrival. Excellent information booklet and everything we could need. Couldn't recommend it more. We will go back.

- Teresa, November 2019
Jeremy October 2019

“The booking process and the accuracy of the accommodation listing were perfect.”

But the property itself is something very special! A great home from home for us, with every facility catered for, every little thing provided for, and the wonderful thoughtful touches by the owner made the Keep Pot and our stay simply wonderful. A lovely "welcome pack" when we arrived after a long day's drive in traffic made our arrival so welcoming, and the many little touches, such as the basket of DVDs (very useful on wet afternoons!) meant we would stay here again in a flash, and would recommend the Keep Pot to everyone. Yes the mobile signal and lack of WiFi could be inconvenient, but I can confirm that, as in the "Fisherman's Friends" film, there is great reception at the end of the sea wall! A fabulous stay, despite inclement weather (it is Cornwall!), and great value for money. Excellent thank you!

- Jeremy, October 2019
Kate October 2019

“The Keep Pot was the nicest place we have stayed in Cornwall.”

There were so many touches to make the place unique. The only way to improve it would be a bigger bed as there is definitely room for it.

Adam September 2019

“The Keep Pot is clean, homely and thoughtfully equipped with everything you could possibly want.”

The parking space is a real bonus in Port Isaac. We had a fantastic week and hope to return soon.

- Adam, September 2019
Peter August 2019

“Overall a very highly rated experience.”

The only real area for improvement is the need for wi-fi or at least a decent 4G service. I suspect that both of these are beyond the owner's control, and indeed that a lot of visitors would be happy not to have them

- Peter, August 2019
Hugo August 2019

“We absolutely loved staying in The Keep Pot.”

It is by far the nicest cottage we have ever stayed in and we are desperate to return! It has everything you could possibly need while on holiday and staying right in Port Isaac, with parking, was absolutely perfect. We enjoyed the short and easy walk to Port Gaverne, as well as making the most of the various places to eat near to the cottage. The little sitting room upstairs was perfect for reading and looking out over the rooftops. The owner made sure that we were settled in and extra little touches made our holiday really special. The only niggle would be that the bed could do with a new mattress. Absolutely recommend this cottage.

- Hugo, August 2019
Peggy July 2019

John June 2019

“A very comfortable cottage situated in a good position in Port Isaac.”

With the added advantage of having a parking space, this is the ideal spot to benefit from the sights and sounds of this part of North Cornwall. Everything you need is to hand, and the facilities at the Keep Pot are very good. We have visited on a number of occasions, and it never fails to please.

- John, June 2019

“The cottage of Keep Pot was fantastic, every convenience was catered for and the attention to detail was outstanding.”

It is extreamly clean and well cared for. It is situated perfectly in the centre of Port Isaac, and has its own parking space, which is a great asset.

“This was our fourth stay at The Keep Pot, the cottage is superbly equipped with everything you could possibly need for a relaxing holiday.”

Situated in a quiet corner at the top end of the village with superb sea views just around the corner. My wife and i love it, highly recommended.

“An extremely comfortable and clean cottage in an excellent location.”

I cannot fault the facilities and the attention to detail. It is far better equipped than other more expensive cottages we have stayed in over the years.

“A wonderful spacious and beautifully decorated cottage in an excellent location, just off the main road into Port Isaac.”

It is a home away from home, an absolute delight. We will be booking next years stay shortly :-)

“The cottage was very well fitted out, with everything to self cater, even down to a pizza cutter.”

Great care had been taken to help guests work the TV, Satellite tuner, DVD player, kitchen and bathroom equipment and the storage radiators. There were boxes of games, jigsaws, recent DVDs and some music CDs etc for relaxation. Pots of flowers welcomed us to the property and there was also a private garden area behind the property, though other than an initial exploration, it wasn't warm enough to enjoy that. It was clear that the owner wanted everything to go well for the holiday, with information on local walks, maps and leaflets for sight-seeing. Port Isaac is a charming unspoilt fishing village, and much as I remember from my first visit 60 years ago, even with the 'Doc Martin' connection of recent years.

“We were thrilled to find the Keep Pot at Port Isaac beautifully decorated with little touches all around, making it so comfortable to come back to each day.”

The owner had thought of everything, eg torch, pen & paper, and had left full instructions for working everything. Moreover, she was kindly in touch with us at any time - and has even send us a parcel with a few things we had inadvertently left behind. We can't remember a better cottage we have ever stayed in.

About the location

PORT ISAAC

Polzeath 6.5 miles; Padstow 16 miles

Port Isaac; one of the true Cornish treasures. A beautiful fishing village nestling in a steep sided valley, the old village in the valley remains unchanged from its days of fishing, slate export and smuggling in the previous century. An abundance of small character properties complemented by larger cliff-top retreats, can be found with easy access to the numerous restaurants and shops of the village. The sandy harbour provides an abundance of rock pools as the tide retreats. Only ten minutes drive from the beaches of Polzeath, Daymer and Rock, it is perfect for romantic and family holidays alike. There is ample parking at the top of the village.

Note: Babies and children from 2 year to 18 years not allowed Note: For any holiday starting between 16th September and 27th May, a heating supplement of £15.00 will be added to the cost of your holiday.
