      Lovely property in a fantastic location for visiting the surrounding areas. It was clean and modern and perfect for a relaxing holiday away.

      Beautiful converted Sunday School in the most idyllic countryside setting. Very quiet but not too far from places like Padstow and Newquay.

    • Mrs Chandler

      The location of the cottage was good and one of the reason we picked this property as easy to reach all the beaches. Unfortunately we wouldn’t choose to stay here again. Mainly due to the fact that the dog hated the stairs as it’s open steps and we had to carry her up each time we wanted to use the living space. We also found the parking( which isn’t really a space but on a side of a junction?) and outdoor space not to be that ideal with the children. Something we will think better about next time. It’s a nice enough space. I just think we have stayed in a few now in Cornwall and it didn’t really meet the mark.
