  Badgers Sett was exactly as advertised, a comfortable barn conversion cottage with all possible amenities.

  Situated on a working farm, it was set in gorgeous moorland countryside and was a welcome peaceful retreat from the busy beaches we visited. The WiFi was good, an essential requirement for my 16 year old daughter, the water supply is from a borehole which, as described in the welcome pack, was some of the best I’ve tasted. The water did have lower water pressure than I’m used to but there was always hot water for showers and washing up without having to put the immersion heater on. I used the shared laundry as we were on the beach every day and swimming costumes and towels needed washing and drying - the tumble dryer is awesome and dried towels within 45 minutes!! Being on a working farm you will hear the farm animals …. The chickens wake early but can only really be heard from the single room at the back of the property. However, as compensation, you are also treated to seeing birds of prey, and as we visited during August, various nesting birds and baby rabbits. Google maps get you straight to the property if you enter ‘Helman Tor Cottages’ and it’s in very easy access to the Eden Project and both the north and south Cornish coasts. Jenny, the cottage host, was lovely and accessible if needed. We had a great time and will definitely look to stay here again the next time we are in Cornwall.

  We had a lovely break in a very comfortable 'tardis' cottage.

  It was small but beautifully formed. I am disabled and my needs were catered for . Everything was supplied but if there was something missing to make your cottage holiday special, Mr and Mrs Williams made sure you were furnished with all the home comforts. The cream tea and pastie welcome pack was a lovely treat. They even made sure my husband had a special birthday supper in the garden. They recommended an excellent fish monger that supplied the delicious lobsters for a special treat. On the whole it was a perfect clean and comfortable base to explore the area of Bodmin. The break was just perfect and exactly what we needed especially when it was the first time away post 'Covid' lockdown. We will definitely add this cottage to our favourite's list.

  We had a wonderful week in Cornwall.

  Bramble Barn was a fabulous place to stay. It was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The enclosed garden was perfect for our Lulu to run around in. Upon arrival, the owners had left Cornish pasties and scones, jam and clotted cream - a nice touch…very tasty and welcoming. The location (Lanivet, near Bodmin) was a great base for us to visit many places - Padstow, Newquay, St Austell, Penzance, Lands End and Perranporth. It was always lovely to come back to the barn each day and relax. Lovely private decking area to sit and enjoy the sunshine and listen to the birds singing. My husband, me and our lovely Cockapoo Lulu, had a really nice time - it was just what the Dr ordered! I would thoroughly recommend staying at Bramble Barn.

  Pretty much perfect really!

  Compact but not overly so, with plenty of open space and good sight lines to keep an eye on the dogs. Nicely furnished, warm and cosy. Clean and everything seemed well taken care of. Really secure outside for dogs too - the parking area is gated, and the little fenced off-leash garden is brilliant. Excellent pasties and cinnamon buns left for us were a welcome treat as well. If I really have to nitpick, a second roll of toilet paper and some basic shampoo/shower gel (even just miniatures) would be appreciated, and the toilet seat doesn’t stay up which was a bit awkward as a guy! Thanks for a lovely stay - we’d love to come back, if you’ll have us!

  We had a lovely welcome of Cornish Pasties and a cream tea.

  There was milk in fridge. The owners were really helpful and lovely people. Although the cottage was quite small it had everything we wanted it was warm cosy and a bed you didn't want to get out of. They say good things comes in little parcels. well this little cottage certainly was a great little parcel. It had a large closed in garden which was wonderful for us as we had our little dog with us . The location was great as It was reasonably close to all the tourist towns and villages, and great for places to walk. If we have another holiday down in Cornwall we would not hesitate to book this cottage again.
