About this property
In Lanreath, a fine, Grade II listed, south-facing cottage over two levels, mentioned in the Domesday Book, flanked by equally ancient cottages. Step through the front door into a big hall with a wood-burning stove in its inglenook fireplace, slate floor, leather window seat and pool table; walk through glazed doors into the large living room with polished wood floor and leather sofas, then through to the fitted oak kitchen with dining table and chairs, slate floor and utility room with toilet. Head upstairs to four bedrooms: two king-size doubles, one with en suite shower-room, a twin, and a single with additional z-bed; family bathroom. In front, there is a neat walled garden; at the back, a large, mostly lawned garden on two levels with patio (table/chairs, barbecue) which can be lit at night for romantic dining (from the back door there are 2 steps up to cobbles, then 2 further steps up to first tier of lawn and patio, and 11 slate steps up to further lawn - rope hand rail). A wonderful, well-equipped cottage in every respect with lots to see in the area including nearby popular fishing villages of Looe and Polperro. PO/shop within walking distance. Good walking country. Eden Project, 12 miles.
Lanreath is a village in southeast Cornwall, five miles west of Looe. Lanreath is rural in character with a local shop and Post Office as well as a parish church.

The welcome pack wasnât good, no teabags or milk! We booked the cottage as it was pet friendly and we had two dogs including a support dog for our granddaughter. We thought the yellow âwarning â sign saying dogs are not allowed upstairs was uncalled for. A more thoughtful sign would be nicer. The bedrooms were comfortable and clean and the cottage is well equipped. Only one parking space though.

The Cottage is well equipped (especially the Kitchen) the beds are so comfy & the on-suite shower is amazing. The roll top bath is large and very comfy for a long soak after a busy day. The location is good for discovering Cornwall and The garden is large and well fenced in so the Dogs are safe. There is a good selection of games provided and the snooker table was well used by us all. The only negative things to mention are the pebbles leading up the path are quite raised and are difficult for anyone with mobility issues. The heating is on a boiler which I could not understand how to switch it on/off and didn't know how to set the timer, it would be helpful for future guests if they had instructions on how to use it correctly. The booklet left with helpful advice is quite out of date and needs to be improved to include local shops & Farm Shops, activities and maybe a bus timetable. A list of dog friendly beaches would also help. Overall, we had an amazing time celebrating my Husband's surprise 70th Birthday and the cottage is ideal for a relaxed holiday. Highly recommended.

All the facilities you need, so very well stocked. We stayed as a group of 6 adults, ages from 46 years to 83 years. All had a fabulous comfortable stay. The garden was great for the huskies, with a lovely porch area for them to sleep. The older generation found the garden tricky to walk on, but as we visited during the winter this was not a problem as too cold for them. They took a stroll up to the village shop to grab the paper and were more than happy with that. If doing the same break we would definitely choose Samuelâs cottage again.
