“Lovely cottage - clean, well equipped and comfortable.”

We would love to stay again in the future, a proper little 'home from home' on a pretty lane. The garden was another wonderful feature, large and well maintained. Nice to sit out on a warm evening for food and drinks listening to the birdsong. Picturesque half mile walk down to the beach from the cottage which would only be difficult for people with mobility problems but we thoroughly enjoyed it and well worth the effort up and down the hilly path. A wonderful stay!

“Stayed in No 1 Rose Cottage 33 years ago.”

The only thing that has changed is the cost of a holiday. Rose Cottage remains a lovely holiday home in a very peaceful and lovely little hamlet. The character of the property has been maintained but it holds all everything you need for your stay. Lovely touch of tea and coffee makings and some biscuits to welcome you were most welcome after our journey. Beds comfortable and kitchen and living room facilities excellent.

- Peter, August 2025

Thankyou for your feedback. We are very glad that after such a long time ago you came back and enjoyed staying in the cottage. Please come back again soon. Thankyou. Property Owner

“Very pretty traditional cottage with lots of character.”

Quiet location, close to coast path for lots of lovely walks. Well equipped, (but would have liked more tea towels.) Lovely big garden with picnic bench for dining, but some comfortable garden furniture for relaxing and reading would have been nice.

“We very much enjoyed staying here.”

It’s lovely to have a garden. The beds were very comfortable, and the shower was good too. The kitchen was well equipped. For five stars there are some details that need attending to. There is no curtain on the smaller window in the front bedroom so you wake at dawn. The smaller frying pan is not useable and needs replacing. There are garden chairs (not listed) but they need oiling. There was nowhere for glass recycling. That said - we are likely to come again!

“Lovely quiet place very clean very enjoyable .”

The parking is not great if you have a long based vehicle ie a truck doesn't fit in the space over hangs into the road and car park says no over night parking and roads leading in very narrow for few miles.lovely big garden .

“4 Rose Cottage is a wonderful property.”

The location was perfect for exploring the many beautiful locations in Cornwall. It really was a home from home for me.

“Beautiful cottage.”

The hot water needs to be remain hot all day as when you come back from the beach you have to boost the hot water every time someone takes a shower and this can take up most of the evening waiting for the hot water. Parking is tight when one of the other cottages doesn’t park correctly. Could do with extending the size.

- Adrian, August 2024

Thankyou for your feedback. We will look into hot water situation. A little harder to extend parking area. Property Owner

“We had a wonderful stay.”

The cottage is beautiful and we absolutely loved the personal touches showing the property’s history (ie paintings). The beds were very comfy and the facilities were fantastic. We appreciated the little things which you don’t usually receive. The only very small downsides were that the kettle does leak so may need a new one and there were quite a few cobwebs. Other than that it was perfect and we would definitely love to come back! Thank you !

“4 Rose Cottage is a lovely, well-equipped place.”

We really enjoyed our holiday there. The roads into the cottage for approx 2 miles are very narrow so ttake care when driving in. There are sea view footpaths to various places which are lovely but very tasking, especially the one to Polperro but with good shoes, legs, heart, a few breaks and plenty of water they are very rewarding. There is a lovely cove approx 15minutes walk downhill from the cottage (uphill back), its rocky in the sea so probably not safe to swim in but lovely to see. A bus service morning & teatime 481/482 which changes in school hols & on a Wednesday too, is a good friendly service that stops outside the Church practically facing the cottage and goes to Polruan where you can catch the ferry to Fowey (both lovely places) and to Polperro and Looe the other way (again both lovely, especially Polperro). You can also catch boats from most ports, there's info at Polperro port. We intend to return to 4 Rose Cottage in the future :-)

“This is a beautiful cottage, spotlessly clean, and well equipped, However if you are a nervous driver and not used to miles of single track lanes then it is not for you; if I had done my research properly I would not have booked this cottage.”

- Sue, June 2023

“Lovely cottage.”

We stayed here before and will hopefully stay again. Everything was clean and very cosy. Very impressed with the shower. Good to be able to enter the cottage at the earlier time of 4pm.

Andrew June 2022

“Great cottage & ideally located for exploring Cornwall, particularly the Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Heligan.”

Lovely church near by- we went to a service and everyone was very welcoming. Perfect amount of space for us and we found the beds very comfortable. The shower was out of this world - far better than ours at home! Only slight issues (which would not stop us visiting again) was the lack of a large saucepan - none of those provided were large enough to cook pasta for 3, and the listing said there was a DVD player and there wasn't.

Deena June 2022

“What a lovely cottage, so quiet, and surrounded by countryside.”

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and would not hesitate recommending to our friends. We did not want to leave. I would change all the lighting to led, and it would save you on electricity.

Anna May 2022

“This is a lovely cottage in a beautiful location.”

Quiet village and walking distance to a nice beach (Rocky rather than Sandy). The cottage was well equipped and very clean. Large garden which was perfect for relaxing on nice sunny days. Short drive to Polperro and not much further to the next town of Looe. We had a very relaxing week and will be booking to come back. Thank you

Clara August 2021

“We had a lovely holiday, the cottage was perfect.”

The beach was 20 to 30 minutes walk from the cottage not the 9 minutes listed on the advert but this was not an issue for us. We would definitely book this cottage and holiday again.

- Clara, August 2021

Thank you for you feedback. The description doesn’t specify a time frame for the walk to the beach but it is slightly less than 1 mile. 4 Rose Cottages is perfect for ramblers and walk lovers Property Owner
S July 2021

“Great location but not a very comfortable property - sofas uncomfortable, single beds could feel the springs, need proper curtains in the bedrooms not just nets as the light streams in, need a privacy blind in the bathroom.”

- S, July 2021

Thank you for your feedback. The owner will take in consideration your comment and will make some modification to improve the comfort for all guests. We hope you will visit 4 Rose Cottages again for more lovely holidays Property Owner
Pierre July 2021

“We know and love the location and last time (3 years ago or so) stayed at no.”

1 Rose Cottages. Facilities good overall - kitchen very clean and well equipped, property very clean throughout. Shower very good. What was really disappointing about this particular cottage - no.4 - was the comfort. Double bed absolutely shocking in terms of comfort - I slept on the floor every night for the week we were there. Single beds barely any better (on which my wife slept near to the baby). Noted similar comments in the visitor book and this issue is clearly yet to be addressed. A pity as other than that it's a great property in a stunning location.

- Pierre, July 2021

Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear you enjoyed Rose Cottages and that you like the area. We are sorry to hear you had problems with the mattress and the owner is taking your feedback in consideration. The owner will make some modification to improve the comfort for all guests. We hope you will visit 4 Rose Cottages again for more lovely holidays. Property Owner
Stephen July 2021

“We had a very enjoyable stay at 4 Rose Cottages.”

I think double bed rather than a queen size would be preferable & slightly more comfortable lounge furniture would have made it perfect. The property was spotlessly clean throughout The WiFi was good too. Lovely location, if a little tricky for the bigger car to get to. Gladly we took a small car. We very much enjoyed our stay.

- Stephen, July 2021
Claire July 2021

“The cottage is perfectly situated in a very quiet village.”

It has been nicely decorated throughout and is warm and comfortable. I would very much like to visit again

Richard October 2020

“We've stayed in several holiday lets in the UK and this was by far the best equipped.”

It meant that all we had to do was sort out food. Everything else was there. The cottage was warm, cosy, clean and well maintained.
