“We had a lovely break at Treetops.”

The accommodation was clean, tidy and had everything you could need for a holiday. The views are stunning and neighbours are friendly. The pub in the village is very accommodating but they do close the kitchen quite early. But will prepare for you if you order. Lovely place. Will come again.

“We were extremely pleased with Treetops!”

A very well maintained cottage and such beautiful views of river Fowey. Golant is such a lovely little quaint village off the beaten track. Highly recommend the Fisherman's Arms pub, such friendly people and the food was delicious and reasonably priced. We had beautiful weather which was a bonus!

“What a fabulous accommodation!”

I’d read a really bad review (not sure what was going on with that reviewer) just prior to us leaving for the holiday so was quite concerned about what we’d find. But boy what a wonderful surprise!! Apart from being in a beautiful location with panoramic views over Fowey estuary, we found a very welcoming, clean, extremely well equipped and comfortable one level house complete with a welcome bottle of wine and packet of biscuits. As the weather wasn’t the best it was really a saving grace to be able to look out at the beautiful views. We definitely recommend this property with no reservations.

- Janine, September 2025

Thank you for your kind response. I am glad you enjoyed Treetops and everything with your stay was so good and positive. You are always welcome again . Property Owner

“Nice location and views.”

Property requires a lot of maintenance 3 or 4 fogged double glazing units, loft hatch frame looks well rotten(hate to think what is behind). Shower room stinks of blocked drains, which it has especially the sink. kitchen tall food store cupboard bottom of it looks never been cleaned. Used 1/2 bottle of bleach getting rid of black mould in the shower and drain. Too much bedding clutter partially filling bedroom clothing cupboards.. Garden hedges need a trim and weeding.

- Keith, June 2025

Thank you for your feedback. I was disappointed to hear that that you had problems as all my other reviews have been so positive. I did have someone to clean and check the property over the day before you went and friends stayed the week before who were over with moon with Treetops and did not report any problems when I asked them. If you had let me know there were any problems with the drains I would have asked the maintenance man to look at them. Unfortunately guests do put wet wipes down them and fat. I appreciate I have sheets in the top part of the wardrobe, that is in case you need to change them. The loft is constantly used by engineers who check on the boiler and solar panels. There is nothing else in the loft. The gardener is due this week, foliage grows very fast in Cornwall. I have brand new windows in the lounge and kitchen but have noted that the window in the second bedroom has begun to mist which I will deal with. This is very recent so I appreciate you pointing this out. I have sent your comments to the cleaner who is meticulous with cleaning cupboards and as I went in the day you left I could not find any issues you mentioned. I hope otherwise you enjoyed the good weather and the very friendly and sociable place Property Owner

“We stayed at Treetops for a week at short notice after an existing booking elsewhere fell through.”

Pat was really helpful at getting back to us quickly, and was really responsive throughout our stay. The facilities in the house are excellent, and the view is stunning. Golant itself is quiet (but friendly), and the house is a 2 minute walk from the pub! We'd be glad to stay here again.

Aileen March 2024

“Treetops was absolutely lovely.”

The views were amazing. The kitchen was beautiful. We instantly wanted to book again ! but unfortunately the mattresses let it down for us. Too soft and no support, I appreciate everyone has their own preference but imo they need replacing. Truly gutted as we would loved to have returned.

“The property location and view are lovely.”

So relaxing. The new sun loungers were very welcome this year with the fantastic weather. We had another fantastic stay and we have already booked again for next year. Thank you

- Tania, May 2023
David May 2023

“Delighted with the accommodation - spacious, comfortable and pleasant, very light and a lovely view.”

Only drawback was being on a steep hill which is difficult if you have mobility problems, but well worth a stay.

- David, May 2023
Peter April 2023

“Wonderful cottage with absolutely everything we needed for our stay.”

Comfortable, roomy and accessible for older, less mobile visitors. Well equipped. Perfect outdoor space with ever changing views over the river. Ideal location with lots of local places to visit. Very helpful owner … thank you Pat!

- Peter, April 2023
Jennifer March 2023

“We had a great week staying at Treetops, the house as pristine and comfortable as the last time we stayed four years ago with a generous welcome pack.”

Beautiful views over the river and despite not the best weather, we enjoyed sitting on the balcony several mornings in the sun. Had a lovely Sunday roast in the Fisherman's Arms down the hill, very friendly staff. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend and will stay again. (Four year gap due to Covid cancellation s)

Stephen October 2022

“A fabulous property in an ideal location to explore Cornwall.”

The view from Tree Tops is wonderful and there are all the facilities you need in the bungalow. Golant is a lovely village and the Fisherman’s Arms does excellent food. This is one of the best properties we have stayed in and have rebooked for next year.

- Stephen, October 2022
Joanne October 2022

“When we arrived at Treetops, we were overwhelmed by the tranquility of Golant and the beautiful views overlooking the creek and the river from the property!”

Treetops was everything we wanted for our holiday. It was lovely and clean and the kitchen was very well equipped and of course the views were to die for from the kitchen, lounge and two double bedrooms. The village of Golant is very quaint and the village pub The Fishermas Inn, serves lovely food and overlooks the creek and river and has a very large garden with plenty of seating. It’s best not to leave your car on the road in front of the pub at high tide, because it is likely to flood. It is only a very short walk from Treetops to the pub, but it’s very steep and I am disabled and couldn’t manage the walk unfortunately ☹️ We can definitely recommend Treetops and hopefully will come back for another holiday there if finances and health allow!

- Joanne, October 2022
Janis September 2022

“This was our second visit to Treetops this year, we love the bungalow, the village, the pub and the whole area.”

We have booked again for next year so that shows how much we enjoy it.

- Janis, September 2022
Sharon September 2022

“The bungalow was absolutely fantastic, very spacious and nice and clean.”

Didn't want for anything while we were there. The view is amazing, just sat with my morning cup of tea watching the boats on the river was just wonderful, I am going to miss that view. I really can't find any fault with my stay at treetops, cornwall is a lovely part of the country and I look forward to going back one day.

- Sharon, September 2022
Iain August 2022

“The location was excellent, great view just as per listing, pub fantastic a 2 minute walk from the property.”

Parking good fro property once you get used to the narrow roads. Ideal place for visiting Eden project, Lost gardens of Heligan and other tourist attractions. Fowey really lovely not far away once you get used to parking and waling the steep steps. Property had everything you needed for a holiday, things that could be improved would be a place to eat out on the decking, the sofa in the living room has seen better days really uncomfortable as was the bed in the main bedroom. One if us ended up sleeping in the spare room, as mattress too uncomfortable. The fridge door also needs addressing, as a note saying shut the door is fine, but I am sure could be fixed quite easily.Those things never spoilt the holiday, however would be good to address for future guests. Still would recommend visiting.

- Iain, August 2022
Ruth July 2022

“A very well equipped and comfortable property.”

The kitchen was fantastic and we enjoyed many meals on the patio overlooking the river below. Having two bathrooms was a bonus for a family stay. Once you've got the hang of the very narrow roads in the village, a relaxing holiday is assured.

- Ruth, July 2022
Neil July 2022

“What a fabulous accommodation, the views were amazing and the home was very well appointed.”

The local pub is well worth a visit, the woodland walk to Fowey is quite a challenge. A couple of minor issues dealt with immediately by the owner Pat..10/10!!

- Neil, July 2022
Catherine May 2022

“Probably the best equipped self catering accommodation I've stayed in.”

Wonderful views. Very quiet and peaceful - you could hear a pin drop in the evenings. The local pub is friendly and only 2 min walk. Only 15 mins from The Eden Project. It was so good, I have booked again for next June!

- Catherine, May 2022
Janis March 2022

“Treetops exceeded our expectations in every way, a very spacious bungalow with beautiful views.”

well furnished and equipped with all anyone could possibly need for a good holiday. The stylish kitchen was my favourite, nothing was missing and once again beautiful views. Our only problem was the TV in the lounge it was very hit and miss, sometimes it worked first time and sometimes it didn't and several times it came on again after we had gone to bed so we switched it off at the plug. We loved the place so much that we have booked Treetops again for October, lets hope for a new TV!

- Janis, March 2022
Stephen March 2022

“Fabulous house in a great setting.”

Well equipped, clean and comfortable. One of the best we have stayed in so much so we have booked again for October.

“Tree tops did not disappoint!”

! Beautiful accommodation, with everything anyone could need .we did think a hot tub on the patio was something that would have made it perfection with such stunning views. But we would definitely return!

“What a great find .”

Such a beautiful home in a picturesque village . The views are to die for the pictures really dont do it justice . The local pub 1 min walk away is great , honest home cooked food and good selection of local ale and gins etc . The kitchen has everything and more than you would ever need. Village is so peaceful all you here is birds song all day and with fowey just a 45 min or so walk away threw some lovley woods and x2 nice beeces 10 min dive away this really is the perfect spot to just chill / switch off for a week. Thanks for having us I would 100% return one day fab place .

“Absoloutley beautiful stay at treetops in Golant, Cornwall.”

very clean and amazing views, brilliant for price and a generally wonderful stay in a quaint little village. We will definitley look at staying in again in the future.

- Jade, October 2020
Peter October 2020

“I can really recommend staying at Treetops.”

We stayed in Oct 20 so the village was lovely and quiet and even with some Oct rain we got some great walks in. The views of the river are great and I can only imagine what fantastic evenings you could have outside sipping a glass of wine on the decking in the summer months. I personally loved the kitchen extremely well appointed and very light and airy. We would love to revisit which for us is an indication of how much we enjoyed staying as we generally always choice different places to stay. WRT COVID the house was spotless

Sally September 2020

“The kitchen was one of the best equipped we have stayed in.”

It had everything you could think of and included a generous supply of all cleaning products for the kitchen and bathrooms. I have not given full marks for facilities as 2 of the bedrooms lacked dressing tables.

- Sally, September 2020
Helena August 2020

“Lovely quiet location ideal for kayaking and paddle boarding .”

Robert October 2019

“Perhaps it would be worth mentioning in the particulars that the road leading down into Golant is very narrow, and the even narrower leading up to the cottage, wasn't a problem to me, but could be to someone with a large 4x4 vehicle.”

Also the grill in the Belling cooker does't appear to reach a higher enough temperature to cook anything, otherwise, it's a magical cottage with stunning views, and I would certainly book it again.

- Robert, October 2019
Lorna May 2019

“We had a super holiday in Cornwall and Treetops was pivotal to this.”

Super views, easy access to Fowey and lovely coastal walks. Even went onto North coast as well. Hidden Valley Gardens were a gem a few miles out of Golant. Excellent kayaking club 100 m away. Would certainly recommend Treetops, it was peaceful, private and very clean and comfortable.

- Lorna, May 2019
Patricia May 2019

“The location was perfect.”

...the accommodation light and very comfortable We were made to feel extremely welcome by the locals in what is a relatively unchanged village plenty of lovely walks and lots of places to visit within the radius of a few miles

David April 2019

“We loved staying at Treetops.”

It was so peaceful and we never tired of the beautiful view of the river Fowey. The cottage itself was beautiful, very spacious and very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped, and we loved the welcome hamper including French butter, cherry scones, a loaf of bread, a pint of whole milk and a bottle of rose wine. It was a lovely touch. Having good wifi and laundry facilities were also a great bonus! We'd definitely stay again.

“Fantastic location - a totally relaxing break.”
