It was musky and damp and very little evidence that any maintenance had been done since our last visit.

We were a family of 5 adults 2 children and a dog amd it was perfect in size for us all. You are within easy reach of beaches and shops but set far enough out that it's peaceful and beautiful. The house had everything we needed and more. The personal touch of jams, cider,wine and flowers made it it so welcoming when we arrived. None of us wanted to go home, we will definitely be back again next year.

House has everything you need and more. If you forget it donât worry, itâll be here. Fresh flowers on the table and milk in the fridge on arrival was a beautiful touch. The house is stunning, comfortable and the enclosed front garden is ideal for keeping dogs & children safe. We loved the games table and became air hockey champions. Owners were in touch by email before our stay and were very friendly and helpful. Really is a beautiful base for any Cornish adventures. We all absolutely loved our stay and will definitely book again if we find ourselves in that neck of the woods.
