The Nook is a great place to stay for a relaxing break or as a base to see Cornwall. It's a great sized cottage and has everything you need. It's very clean and comfortable, with beautiful gardens and countryside around it. The hosts Matthew and Helen were so lovely and always quick to respond and happy to help with anything.A short drive to local shops and lovely pub. We had a great stay, Thank you.

Lovely cottage in beautiful surroundings. We stayed for the weekend as we were attending the Mevagisey Shanty Festival so it was a great location as it was les than ten minutes by car. Matthew was very friendly, helpful and accommodating and the cottage was stocked with the esentials. We would definitely recommend.
