  Absolutely fabulous cottage full of character and charm, in a wonderful location. Many places of interest on the Lizard Peninsular within a few minutes drive. Cottage was extremely spacious, comfortable and clean. everything you needed for your self catering holiday. Added to which was a good size garden with outside seating and a BBQ so plenty of space to relax and dine outside. The hamper was fabulous, the home made lemon drizzle cake was very moreish and wine was very welcome. The setting was idyllic, having access to the Bonython Estate outside of opening hours was a real bonus with many a pleasant morning and evening walks on estate. The Estate Grounds are absolutely beautiful and really enjoyed listening to the Barn and Tawny Owls in the night. We were scheduled to holiday on the Isles of Scilly, but Covid 19 resulted in us having to change our plans and this was a real find, so in this strange world we are in, this was a positive. It was an absolute pleasure to be welcomed to the cottage by 'Tara' the owners dog who visited everyday on her daily rounds. Certainly will be booking again on the estate and cottage are just so beautiful.

  Great family holiday

  Just returned from spending a week at the Catchfrench Manor house. We had a large family group ranging from 2 to 86 and everybody loved it. The house is spacious with enough large areas for groups and lots of quiet rooms if you want to escape. The house is accessible in all areas as it has a lift for those a bit shaky on their feet and was a key attraction for us. The property is in a private rural setting where all you can hear are the birds. The grandchildren enjoyed watching the cows nearby and Albert the duck and his family on the pond. The variety of outside spaces enabled all ages to relax, play and hone their croquet skills - or learn new ones. The youngest ones were able to practise their new found cycling abilities on the tarmac and the grass. The house is well equipped for cooking, eating and playing together. We were lucky to have glorious weather so didn't get to use all of the indoor amenities fully. We were really pleased to have the opportunity to stay in such a beautiful home, enjoying time with our extended family.

  Overall, a spacious, comfortable, quite well equipped cottage in a secluded yet reasonably convenient location midway between Helston and Lizard with limited outside space and no view but free access to lovely estate gardens. Furnishings are essentially fine but the electric Mira showers are rather pathetic and the mattresses on the beds in the twin room feel tired and are not comfortable. The wood stove in the sitting room needs better ventilation as it won't stay alight unless loaded up with rather too much wood. Only occasional helicopter noise (Culdrose is just up the road)but otherwise the only sound is birdsong and wind in the trees. This comment box is annoying because as soon as you start to type your text disappears from sight below your keypad - at least it does on an iPad.

  Beautiful house in a great location in Cadgwith.

  The solid stone built house has been renovated and decorated to a very high standard. A lot of thought and effort has gone into making every room unique and lovely. It is also in a good central location in the village with excellent views but doesn't feel overlooked. There is lots of outdoor space and a large garden area ideal for kids to play games (quite rare in this village which is otherwise generally quite squeezed in). There is plenty of room for a big group with en-suite bathrooms for most bedrooms. The owners were very helpful and responsive. They also left us a wonderful welcome basket of fresh local food from the farm shop.. far exceeded anything we have ever had in any other rental. We have stayed in lots of holiday houses and ths is certainly one of (if not the) best...
