We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Nan Tis. A gorgeous, characterful cottage in a fabulous, peaceful location. So much space both indoors and outdoors (we were a family of 3 adults, 2 children and a dog). Andrew and Morwenna were very friendly and responsive. Really easy, short drive to Padstow and our favourite beaches in the area. Minor points for improvement - perhaps a more powerful shower and slightly more comfortable outdoor seating, but this in no way detracted from our enjoyment of our stay or how much time we spent outdoors there! We’d highly recommend Nan Tis and will definitely be back!
