It is very well equipped with everything provided for a very relaxing stay. The hot tub, sauna and outside cooking area were perfect, especially after walking the south west coast path which is nearby. The bed was very comfortable...I wouldn't hesitate to book again

So clean and comfortable, we could not fault it in any way. Beautiful welcome pack the best we have ever come across in all our visits to various places. Every aspect of our stay catered for even down to the supply of dishwasher tabs, washing pods, toilet rolls, kitchen roll etc. The hot tub and sauna were a great added bonus and we took good advantage of them both. Surrounding area great to visit, Lands End, Minack Theater, St Ives etc. Thank you for such a lovely stay in your lovely home we cannot praise it enough.
