A very well equipped cottage located on a farm in a beautiful countryside setting. The owners were exceptionally helpful and responsive and our week’s stay was wonderful.The swimming pool was a real bonus and is only shared with the adjacent cottage so there is plenty of swimming time available. The 3 bedrooms sleep 7 people, one with a bunk bed, which is best suited for younger children. The lounge is spacious and opens directly onto the swimming pool. It includes a dining table and a serving hatch through to the kitchen. The kitchen has pretty much everything you need. The fridge and freezer are separate and we did find the fridge a little on the small size for 7 people. There is a separate utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer. There is an aga in the kitchen, which we were delighted to find although in reality it made the kitchen rather warm during our summer stay and cooking in it took a long time. However, there is a separate microwave oven which can be used as a standalone oven and is fairly spacious.One or two minor niggles - the downstairs toilet/shower has no lock on the door, some of the hot taps require a little attention and the downstairs washbasin does not drain well. These are all easily fixable and did not mar our stay.

Lovely isolated location, but easy access to local shops, towns and beaches. The house was well equipped with everything we needed and very clean. The swimming pool was definitely enjoyable, we went in every day sometimes twice a day. It was warm and very clean. The owners were very friendly and on hand if anything was needed

The owners simply go out of their way to make your stay here as comfortable as possible. Everything is provided, from towels to dishwasher tablets, to washing machine ones too. Situated on a working farm, down country lanes yet a short distance from Eden Project, Mevagissey, Charlestown, Pubs and Restaurants.Thank you Michael and Tash
