Guests say
Riverside Cottage in Liskeard offers a serene and scenic getaway with ample space for families. Guests appreciate the lovely views, quiet surroundings, and well-equipped villa. While some found the remote location challenging and noted a lack of on-site assistance, the property's charm and the opportunity for exploration are well-regarded.
There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide an accurate score.
The location is described as scenic and beautiful, though remote and accessible via narrow lanes. The tranquil setting is appreciated, but the lack of easy access to amenities and directions for local attractions is noted.
Guests have mentioned that the property is lovely and the villa is spacious and well-equipped, suggesting a comfortable stay. However, no specific details on comfort are provided.
The property offers a lot of space for play and exploration, but there are remarks about the tennis court being locked and WiFi and fuel incurring additional charges. No mention of other facilities prevents a higher score.
There are no mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate the level of thoughtfulness, so this score cannot be determined.

Some properties pet friendly. It has often been said that Rosecraddoc Manor must be the nearest thing to paradise. The manor properties stand in 38 acres of beautiful grounds and woodlands, set around a lovely lake, stocked with carp, roach and bream. Rosecraddoc Manor features a variety of properties surrounding the historic Manor House to cater for all tastes whether classic, modern, cosy or cottage style is what you are looking for. The manor was built in the 1820s on the site of a much older house mentioned in the Domesday Book. It is Grade II listed, along with two bridges in the grounds, and has now been converted into these attractive apartments and cottages, making a perfect base for your Cornish holiday.
On site you can fish on the lake (bring own fishing licence, barbless hooks and landing nets must be used, please) or play tennis on the all weather court (smooth soled tennis shoes to be worn, not squash shoes; please bring your own racquets and tennis balls). If you can bear to leave this beautiful spot, just 2½ miles away in Liskeard there is a superb leisure complex, where you can enjoy squash, badminton, gym, indoor bowls and indoor leisure pools, which include a children’s pool and flume, as well as the main pool.
Within 4 miles you can explore Bodmin Moor, where you can go riding, walking or even try water sports on Siblyback Lake - wind surfing, dinghy sailing and canoeing are available. To the south, lovely sandy beaches and pretty fishing harbours lie along the coast. Several excellent golf courses can also be found in the area; and the Eden Project is only 20 miles away.
The Manor and the Coach House have been tastefully and sympathetically restored to please the most discerning guest. The cottages are refs B6859, CV7102, CV7103, CV17, CV13 and CV44. Some of the cottages are suitable for guests with disabilities (CV44 is designed for the convenience of visitors with disabilities, as well as able-bodied visitors), and ref B6859 boasts an American fridge/freezer. Access to the front door of the manor is by 3 stone steps. The apartments are refs CV14, CV20, CV11 and B4866 which are all on the first floor and ref CV12 is a ground floor apartment. Whichever you choose you will find it immaculately clean, with freshly laundered linen and tea towels. Please bring your own towels. Cot linen is not supplied. Cornwall is well known for its mild climate, but at Rosecraddoc Manor, even if it is cold outside, your accommodation will be warm and welcoming. There are several pubs locally. An ideal venue for all the family. Pub 1½ miles.

Beautiful scenic place to stay. Its a bit tucked in but such a lovely view. Family loved it and the kids had lots of space to play and explore.

The area in itself is very pretty, but you are in the middle of nowhere and have to travel through very narrow country lanes to get to the property. The property isn't manned which is very annoying when you have questions about amenities, the tennis court is constantly locked and we were only able to get the key once much to the annoyance of the lady who got it for us. We would have liked to walk the waterfall one evening but because there was no one to ask about directions we also missed out on this. There should be someone on site to welcome guests and answer any questions they may have. We left a day / 2 days early as we were so disappointed with our stay
