The cottage is stylish and comfortable with lovely views across the countryside to St Michael's Mount. A big plus for us was the large field next to the garden where we could walk our dog morning & evening and meant a nice relaxed beginning and end to our days. The journeys to Penzance and St Ives/ Hayle were quick and easy by car. There was a bus but we weren't sure our dog would get on it. A really lovely two-week Autumn break that we would be keen to repeat.
