Lovely place

Very comfy.

very clean. quiet and peaceful. interior design had many personal touches which were most welcome. Facilities were great ( though we didn't need to use the washing machine or dishwasher.) Fridge-freezer was good. The shower was a bit retro but excellent in use. The sofa was very comfy and the mattress was spot-on for two people with different preferences (Goldilocks would have been impressed!) Possible improvements might include an extra spotlight over the microwave -toaster, some pruning to the shrub outside the window to allow more of an outside view, and maybe a sprinkling of hefty rugs in the bedroom and on the landing to try to muzzle the creaks from the lovely polished floor-boards during nocturnal visits to the en-suite.! All in all a very pleasant cottage for two, we enjoyed our stay, especially as the location gave us good access to the places we wanted to visit. Many thanks to our host for their care and preparation.

A fantastic cottage, ideal for a couple - and a dog!

Very tastefully decorated and very well equipped. Cottage was also nice and cool despite the heatwave! Owner Karen provided scones, clotted cream and jam, along with various items for our dog including treats. You will need transport to get around as it's fairly remote but you can get to Lostwithiel, Liskeard and various pubs serving food within about 15 minutes. Karen is incredibly helpful and went out of her way to return something that we left behind. Thank you so much Karen. The neighbours - Sheila and Peter (and their dogs) - are lovely too!
