“Family holiday with grandchildren”

Reviewed 17 Aug 2019

Beautiful quaint cottage in a lovely valley - road and driveway are very narrow but so are many of the Cornish roads! Anna and Neil were charming hosts who endeavoured to cater for our every need. On arrival we were greeted by Anna who was so friendly and we were shown around the cottage. The table was set for tea with a cake ... which was a lovely surprise and very delicious. The cottage although remote provided a good base for us touring Cornwall.
