About this property

Ducks Ditty is a well-appointed, single-storey cottage boasting a lovely position between the market town of Liskeard and the village of St Cleer, in Cornwall. Once you have explored the stunning natural beauty of Bodmin Moor or walked the scenic trail along the South West Coast Path, take the weight off your feet in the open-plan living room. Sink into one of the sofas and tune into the TV resting on the solid wood coffee table. There is a bright and airy feel throughout elevated by a neutral colour scheme and thoughtful arrangement of some hand crafted furnishings. You can rustle up a tasty meal in the modern kitchen and gather around the dining table to chat about the adventures you've had so far, or forget the cooking and discover one of the recommended local pubs/restaurants. Sit and relax in the refreshing Cornish air of the surrounding countryside on the south facing patio which is ideal for a drink or two. When the evening draws to a close choose from a double or twin room for your well earned rest, each with bedside tables, lamps and ample storage space. There is also a wet room with a large walk-in shower and handrail, ideal for those travelling with someone slightly less able on their feet. Liskeard is a thriving market town with many shops, pubs and restaurants to choose from. The South West Coast Path is littered with beaches and hidden coves, an inspirational landscape taking you through some idyllic towns and villages. You have Padstow, Port Issac and Tintagel in the North, whilst the pretty harbour town of Looe and pretty village of Polperro lie to the South. Stretch your legs on Bodmin Moor with Colliford Lake, the man-made Carnglaze Caverns and beautiful Golitha Falls to discover. The famous Eden Project offers a lovely day out with special events throughout the year, while the city of Plymouth beckons with shops, bars and a plethora of activities for all tastes and ages. Enjoy a varied holiday at this fine holiday let in Cornwall. Note: This property can also be booked alongside Ref: 962075 and together they sleep 8 guests in 4 bedrooms.

    . only one storage heater that hardly pushes out any heat is not adequate. Fortunately 2 oil heater’s and an electric heater was there and we had to use to keep us warm.. first thing in the morning was freezing and had to wait for the oil heaters to initially give us some warmth, plus put the oven on with the door open to help heat up the room…other than that all good

    Beds clean and comfortable. We were disappointed with the smell of damp dogs but this went after a couple of days. Cushions on sofas smelt ‘dirty’ and covers were dirty with dog hairs. The seat cushions on both sofas were flat making it hard to get up, my disabled husband had so much trouble he had to sit at the table the whole week - tried sitting on the cushions but was unstable. The cold bathroom tap is still fierce, kitchen tap still drips, shower plug holes slow draining. The Pub had closed over a year ago, same for the shop. Will not be coming back, a couple we spoke to said the same about the sofas in their bungalow and said they won’t be back either. Sorry to be so negative but with all the ‘hype’ from other people we felt very let down. After saving for a year we were very disappointed.
