Oak cottage is part of a small complex of holiday rentals. It is compact but has everything you need for a quiet relaxing stay. We enjoy walking and from the cottage there is easy access to the South West Coast Path around Falmouth. Nearby are many gardens and beaches to visit.

Would suit a young energetic couple. It was fairly quiet apart from the golf course groundsmen arriving for work in the big shed behind, at 5.30 in the morning. The bathroom was great. Advertised with a washer/dryer but a sign said not to use the dryer. There was no other facility to dry wet clothes as the clothes rack was broken and there was no washing line in the garden. The rear garden was a waste as the gras was overgrown and there were only old wooden kitchen chairs to sit on. The rooflight windows open, but the ground floor windows didn't.

Lovely cottage in an ideal quiet setting. Comfy accommodation, very light and airy. Our small dog also enjoyed her stay there.We loved the walk through the gate and around the golf course to the cove. So much to see and do within less than half hour drive although the walk from Lands End is a must from Sennen Cove!! Would certainly recommend this cottage to family & friends.
