“The accommodation was very comfortable and clean with everything you would need, even down to a dishwasher and washing machine.”

The apartment did smell musty, maybe due to it being a converted old chapel. The owners did provide a dehumidifier and we bought an air freshener but we were hardly there for it to be a problem. The area was very quiet, overlooking the countryside, within walking distance to a local pub and small shop only.

Thank you for your positive comments. What a shame that you didn't tell us of your concerns regarding any smell during your stay. We are always ready to address any issues and find remedies where possible. In our opinion, any perception of a musty smell would have been more likely caused by the extremely heavy rain and strong winds from Storm Callum that unfortunately coincided with the first part of your holiday here. Only the external walls of the Chapel remain, all internal walls and fixtures are modern. Owner relations

“This was a very well equipped and welll furnished holiday flat with the friendly and helpful owners resident in the same building.”

The house was siuated in a rural private road and therefore peaceful and free of traffic.Our stay was very enjoyable. We had no difficulty in finding the property; your directions were spot on.

“Fourth visit to this wonderful place and hopefully not the last.”

Everything clean, comfortable and all you need for a fabulous holiday is there on your doorstep. All the little added extras make it even more special.

“Beautiful, Peaceful, Perfect.”

Couldn't fault this excellent apartment. Located about a 3 minute walk from Mithian which is close to St Agnes. Our delightful hosts Serena and Jim were so helpful and on hand to give advice. The apartment is exactly like the photographs. It has a sitting room with TV, double bedroom, fully equipped kitchen, bathroom,sofa bed, childs cot We were amazed at how much was provided. Home made cake, tea, coffee, hot chocolate, fresh milk, fruit, fresh flowers, toiletries, towels, an array of cleaning accoutrements, a dish washer and washing machine. There are beautiful walks by the coast and the local pub which serves nice food is 3 minutes away. There is a delightful deck with tables and chairs which has you sitting facing the sun and the quiet countryside...an oasis. Everything was spotlessly clean. There was tons of reading material about the area and there were lots of board games and films also. Highly recommend. Will we go back? Definitely YES.

“The cottage was in an excellent location with a very friendly village pub just a 10 minute walk away.”

Could get on the coastal path very easily. Comfortable and very clean cottage with all amenities. Lovely touch of homemade cake, tea/coffee milk to welcome us. No trouble for the owner that we'd been stuck in traffic and arrived later than planned. All in all a superb holiday.

“Our second home”

This was our seventh stay at Secret Garden and have never been disappointed. The accommodation is spacious, clean and well maintained. We find it very peaceful away from traffic noise, sitting on the veranda watching the birds feeding, it is ideally situated for lovely walks, beaches and a great pub down the road. Looking forward to our stay next year.

“Lovely cottage in a nice location”

Had a great stay, well equipped and comfortable cottage. Peaceful setting, near to the coast, good pub in the village that serves food and has a little shop. Excellent base to explore the local attractions.

“A lovely cottage for stay in Cornwall”

A great little place that is good value and close to some lovely beaches. Was a real treat to sit outside on garden patio in sunshine with a coffee and some breakfast to start the day. Flat is good sized for two people and kitchen is well equipped - we cooked properly one night for dinner as well as going out for meals. All in all a very comfortable stay and will hopefully be back soon.
