Perfect base for what we wanted to do. Crabbing in Padstow, body boarding in Fistral, watching the sunset on Polkeris beach, adrenaline quarry, Truro, Pendennis Castle, St Catherineâs Castleâ¦.to name but a few things! We really enjoyed the hot tub at night and we were lucky enough to have clear night skies and saw the international space station zoom over and also saw a shooting star. Donna is so lovely and will be on hand should you need. Wonderful week at Crift Farm. Best wishes from The McWilliam Family xx

Crift cottage is a great base to see lots of Devon and Cornwall. When we arrived there was a nice cream tea and bottle of wine waiting for us and the jacuzzi was lovely after a day of adventure. There was a local pub handy for food which we used regularly so confining. The hosts Donna and Ben gave us their mobile number but were not needed but great to know they were there if needed. The only small thing was as dog's are allowed in property there was a lingering small of dog's. Other than that what a brilliant place.
