    “Kitchen is well equipped, miss a good skillet.”

    The house is suitable for families with small children. Above an adult cannot stand upright. Interior very dated and much used. Beds uncomfortable potholes and springs felt. The outdoor area is not suitable for sitting. It is unappealing, rubbish bins in front and a house is being built next to it. No privacy due to scaffolding and generator sound from 8 o'clock in the morning. Not good value for money

    Thank you for your feedback following your recent stay at Cider Cottage. Firstly we do sincerely apologise for the noise from the building being carried out in our neighbouring field. We had not anticipated this and thankfully it has now ceased. In relation to the other comments, we have recently installed a complete new kitchen, furnished the lounge with two new sofas and completed some decorating work. We have never received complaints regarding the comfort of the double bed and on checking, found nothing untoward. With regard to the ceiling height in the upstairs bedroom…it is stated clearly on the description that the headroom is 4’7”. Children do love it but we have also often had teenagers and even an 80 year old lady sleep there with no complaints! The rubbish bins are well covered with high fencing and have never caused a problem to any of our guests in the fourteen years we have been letting out our cottages. Whilst we do understand and apologise again for the builders noise which understandably would have made it uncomfortable to sit out in the small cottage courtyard we must point out that there are three acres of gardens and meadow together with a large patio area and garden around the outdoor heated pool for our guests to enjoy. Lastly, if you had asked for anything you needed but were unable to find, such as a skillet we would have immediately supplied it for you. We have since supplied two of different sizes to the cottage. Property Owner

The property

Situated in the Looe Valley in the peaceful hamlet of Trewidland in the lovely grounds of Trehalvin is this delightful cottage.

Cider Cottage is an idyllic countryside retreat close to the exclusive waterside town of Looe (5miles), the charming fishing port of Polperro (9 miles) and Whitsand Bay (11 miles) and benefits from a shared 40ft outdoor heated swimming pool complete with a southerly facing patio and garden with a pond and water fountain. Approached along a leafy drive it inhabits a private corner on the grounds away from the Georgian country house occupied by the owner's and offers a private and enclosed patio and the shared use of a large meadow overlooking scenic countryside and woodlands that is suitable for ball games, exercising dogs and is equipped with a children's swing and picnic tables.

Also available to book individually, or for larger groups, are Smugglers Cottage, Daisy Lodge and Sam's Cabin.Ideally located for exploring the diverse coastline of the Cornish Riviera, the expansive surfing beaches at Whitsand Bay, Seaton and Downderry, the secluded sheltered cove at Lantic Bay and the scenic South West footpath are within a short drive.

Fowey is a designated area of outstanding natural beauty and holds a special interest for visitors of all ages whilst the vibrant naval city of Plymouth, the awe inspiring gardens at the Eden Project and The Lost Gardens of Heligan and the National Trust owned Lanhydrock, Cotehele and Antony House present opportunities to string together a varied and memorable holiday experience.

An idyllic rural retreat, Cider Cottage is an excellent choice for couples and the second bedroom set into the eaves is particularly loved by children.

Beautifully furnished, the rustic character and charm of this converted stone farm building is thoughtfully balanced with the comforts of modern living, providing plump settees, high quality mattresses, full central heating and a traditional wood burner.

There is ample parking.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

About the location

LOOE

Polperro 5 miles.

Looe is Cornwall’s second largest fishing port and hence there is always a lively maritime bustle around the quay area of East Looe, which is connected to the quieter West Looe by a seven arched 19th century bridge over the River Looe. You can also catch the river taxi between East and West Looe. East Looe has narrow cobbled streets, twisting alleyways and plenty of tourist shops, whilst West Looe has a lovely outlook across the harbour. Looe’s viewpoint, Banjo Pier, can be reached from the quay and is a great spot to watch the returning fishing trawlers and look across the bay to Looe Island, which can be walked to occasionally at very low tides. The sandy Looe beach adjoins the pier and is very popular with families because of its safe shallow swimming and vast expanse of sand. There is also a great rock pool area at Hannafore that children will love. West Looe has a Heritage Centre that recently opened in the Old Sardine Factory with a climbing wall and a cafe and the delightful Kilminorth Woods have way marked walks through the majestic oak wood, rich in plant, insect and bird life. Apart from beach activities in this part of south east Cornwall, there are many mining remains on Bodmin Moor and in the Tamar Valley and much of the mining landscape has World Heritage status. This area of Cornwall has inspired writers, such as Daphne du Maurier and much of Bodmin Moor has inspired legends linked with King Arthur. There is much to explore in this beautiful part of Cornwall.

Note: steep stairs to twin bedroom. Children must be supervised.
