Situated on a quiet narrow country lane in beautiful part of Cornwall. Easy to find and to get around. The local pub which was a five minute walk served fantastic food and Sunday roast, really friendly staff and dog friendly too. The cottage had everything you needed, well equipped kitchen, even camping chairs and a pop up beach shelter. Plenty of room inside, spacious and bright, the bedrooms were a lovely size and we had a very comfortable bed. If I was to pick fault at all, it would be that the upstairs shower wasn't very powerful. That's it though ! We've never been so happy staying somewhere, and we have stayed at a lot of cottages. Planning our next visit soon and the scones with jam and clotted cream were so thoughtful and thoroughly delicious !

The house is very warm and homely, spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated with quality furnishings and nice artwork. We immediately felt at home and we loved the welcome basket with everything for a cream tea provided, such a nice gesture for tired travellers! The location is ideal for exploring the coastline with nearby St Agnes and Chapel Porth being our favourites, and Perranporth for surf lessons. We would certainly recommend this house for a cosy and comfortable family retreat.
