  We would strongly recommend Sheila's Cottage to anyone wanting to visit Penryn/Falmouth/Truro coastline, or further afield.

  It truly is a lovely 'home from home' experience. Everything, was so cosy, clean and welcoming. Graeme and Gail left us a bottle of wine, fresh flowers, chocolates and treats for our dog, as well as even laying the fire in the log burner ready for us. Central heating through-out, which was timed perfectly, so that we were always warm in October. Even extra niceties, such as fresh milk in the fridge, the little things you might forget to take such as cooking oil, condiments ect all provided. This was on top of all cleaning products provided, including dishwasher and washing machine tabs. Extremely comfortable bed, pillows ect. This cottage has it all, including peace and quiet if you need a restful break. It also has a lovely conservatory, with comfortable seating to put your feet up and enjoy the evenings drawing in, in comfort. Cards, games, CDs, DVDs also provided if you want to fill some time. Our hosts were lovely and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. I mistakenly left my hairdryer and kindle behind and they kindly informed me and posted it out to me the same day, wrapped in bubble wrap for protection. Also, sitiated close to all amenities and dog friendly beaches in half term. Quite frankly, in our experience we can honestly say that the whole week was made for us with such a lovely clean, inviting and cosy cottage to return to each day. Thank you Graeme and Gail for a lovely holiday that we both felt was a breath of fresh air for us, as well as extremely good value for money. This cottage surpassed all our expectations, thank you! It is definitely on our radar for return visits.

  The property looks very tired and in need of some TLC.

  Jet spraying the walls to remove the caked in bird poo would be good The beds were extremely uncomfortable, the springs dug in and infact I tried to sleep in each bed as I could not avoid the springs in the main bed. My son, who is less sensitive than me, also had the same problem. It would be helpful to provide cleaning products, there were no surface sprays or cleaning materials for the bathroom, the toilet brush was broken. I would usually give the shower a quick clean everyday it would be great to have a shower cleaner and a useable toilet brush. This is the first time I have stayed in a cottage that doesn't provide a "care package" of milk tea bags and often other goodies, just to get you going. The skylights need something you can open them with and need blinds as the sun shines in directly, which is wonderful, but not so good when you are trying to keep the rooms.cool. Sorry for the long list, but I would want to know if it were my property. Also storage, we found the hoover in front of the door in the downstairs bedroom and the mop and bucket behind the arm chair! We loved the location and views from the upstairs bedroom.

  We recently stayed at Elm Cottage in Cornwall and it was an absolute pleasure.

  The cottage is purpose built, but it still feels like a home away from home. The owner welcomed us shortly after our arrival and made sure that everything was in order before leaving us to enjoy our stay. The cottage was immaculate and well-equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The underfloor heating kept us warm and cozy in December, and the powerful shower had plenty of hot water. The cottage was comfortable and not overlooked, so we had plenty of privacy. We had great views from the back of the cottage. The wooded outdoor area was perfect for a quick doggie leg stretch. The cottage is dog friendly, rather than just dog tolerant. The only thing that would have made it even better would be a higher rear fence in the back garden as our labradoodle was able to clear it. Overall, we had a wonderful stay at Elm Cottage and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-equipped home away from home in Cornwall.

  A gloriously peaceful Christmas week in Elm Cottage with gorgeous surroundings.

  Well located for exploring the coast. Cottage was spotlessly clean and beautifully finished. Very dog friendly and family friendly with the play park and nearby woodland for walks. We have no particular accessibility needs ourselves but nevertheless very much appreciated the wet room and accessible parking. It would be useful to have a “welcome pack” of types with info of the local area (takeaway, doctors etc), user guide for the oven and instructions on what to do with bedding, towels etc at departure. Although there was cleaning equipment, some products (even just some wipes) would be helpful and enable guests to keep on top of the cleanliness (especially after cooking Christmas dinner!). A couple of teabags & a pint of milk to get you started would also be a nice touch to save the need to get out to the shops immediately after arrival. These are very small niggles though and we would very much like to return to Vose Farm in future.

  It’s the second time we stayed at the Folly, the first being 2 years ago.

  It it perfectly situated and has a very valuable parking spot. But, it is a much unloved property. The flower trough on the pathway is full of weeds (just get rid of the trough). On the corner of the outside steps down to the door there’s a pile of stuff for the tip - old polystyrene a bit of old Lino. The curtains in the bedrooms are thin and unlined - both bedrooms face east so you’re up at 5am; the main wall in the living room doesn’t eve.n have a picture on it. The boiler in the kitchen rattles away making some very odd noises; one of the frying pans lost it’s non stick about 5 years ago……we could go on. As a crash pad (with nighttime eye masks) it works, but it’s definitely not comfort and a little surprising John Bray puts his name to it.
