It is such a peaceful location to get away from it all. The cottage was very clean, comfortable and roomy. The welcome package was a delightful selection of Cornish goods, including scones and clotted cream, it really is the best welcome package we have ever received. Lots to do in the local area with wonderful beaches not far away. We would definitely use this cottage again.

. It was so lovely and the welcome pack of goodies was a lovely gift to find on our arrival. This barn conversion had everything we needed and more!! It was spacious, exceptionally clean and even had bi-folding doors that we managed to have open a couple of times even though it was April!! Will and Sarah were the perfect hosts on a family farm. We also, had Trevor the peacock and his family visit us most days at the door! There is nothing to not like here and we will be returning again as it was ideal for visiting my sister just down the road.
Deb
The Cornish welcome pack was scrumptious. The enclosed yard was a big plus for us but there is a large gap under the gate which our 9month old lurcher could fit under, on the positive Fred the spaniel came to visit and had a great time playing with Wilfred. As said in previous reviews the lane to the cottage is very bumpy and needs using at very slow speed .
