Dog Friendly Villas In Cornwall

What our customers say about their holidays

• Graham - Verified booking

  Our booked six night stay consisted of one night before we gave the keys back and found somewhere else to stay.

  In 25 years of renting holiday cottages, this was by far the worst. Spartan, poorly equipped, no room whatsoever, no storage space and what we believed to be us having the run of a large garden (as the photos depicted) for our two spaniels, we had a 12 x 12ft patch of grass. The tv is at a 45 degree angle to the settee, so you had to crane your neck to watch it. No net curtains so no privacy. A kitchen without a cooker, draining board or washing machine, the latter essential for a cottage that's supposedly dog friendly. As for the front door..... We were told NOT to turn the car around using the property opposite's drive which necessitated reversing down the narrow lane to get out, no mention of this when we booked. Presumably the cottage owners and the neighbour don't get on? The directions to the place weren't even accurate. If this place WAS converted from a barn, I can only assume that the barn was more comfortable. When we departed on the Sunday morning, the owners weren't in, so I texted them to say we'd left the place and to let them know where we'd left the key. Several hours later they replied to say, "oh dear, thanks for letting us know, we hope you find something more suited to your needs". No apology, no " what could we have done to make your stay better?", essentially, " thanks for your £400, 'bye". I just can't believe the glowing reviews for this place, people must have very low expectations. We will NEVER book through you again, a complete and utter disappointment. Yours sincerely Graham & Caroline Brown

  Little Orchard Barn was a vey lucky find and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

  It is one of the two best cottages we have stayed in. We received a very warm welcome along with some tasty treats. The cottage is comfortable, very well equipped and thoughtful touches make it feel very homely. Please don’t be put off by previous negative comments regarding narrow lane to access the property. It is a very short distance which we managed very well in our Honda CRV, which is not a small car and with due care we were able to drive in, turn round and drive out again with confidence. There is a lot to do in the surrounding area and the shops are close by. Do come and stay at Little Orchard Barn you won’t be disappointed. Many thanks to the owners

  Lovely cottage, ideally located to access centre of Newlyn, Penzance plus the coast.

  Enjoyed Lamorna Cove and nearby Perranthunoe beach for their Cornish beauty and charm. Comfy beds and sofa. Private pretty terrace to sit on - we were out there every morning and most eves. Was secure for our two dogs. Although there is no parking with the property, a car park is around the corner and costs only £15 for a whole week. Friendly pub, the Red Lion, literally at the bottom of the lane. Only problem was with the wifi which wasn’t working and the temporary dongle was intermittent. Minor issue though! Everything we needed was there and scones, cream jam and milk on arrival. Great stay and we’d love to come back.

  We had a wonderful stay.

  Everything was perfect. The property is very close to St Austell and if you’re feeling active then a 35 min or so walk to the beach down quite a wild path. We loved the touch of scones, clotted cream and jam and our dogs loved their dog treats. Other really nice touches were fresh flowers and great kitchen utensils, even a cafetière. It was a very peaceful and perfect stay. My dogs are small and one has a disc hernia, so we bought our dog steps along with us for the step in and used the other for the pretty courtyard garden. We are looking forward to hopefully coming back at a future date. Thank you.

  What a beautiful little cottage.

  We had a lovely week there. The cottage was lovely and clean and everything you needed. Location was good for us. The only thing we had problems with was when we first got there how to get to the cottage. we rang the owner and she waited on the front and once we done it the moment we was fine. The people that owned the cottage were lovely and thank you for the little gifts you left us when we first got there. There was some lovely walks for us and the dog, and there was a few lovely Cafes around. And we will definitely be going again when we visit family at Saint Austell .
