Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviews frequently commend the cottage for its exceptional cleanliness, with numerous guests describing it as 'immaculately clean'. This suggests a very high standard of cleanliness is maintained.
The location is highly praised for its tranquillity, proximity to local amenities, and as a base for exploring Cornwall. The village's charm and the ease of accessing both coasts are noted as positives.
The cottage is generally found to be comfortable, though there are comments about flat seat cushions and a dining table not accommodating taller individuals. The beds are mostly liked, but one guest found the mattress too soft.
Facilities are well-regarded, with a well-stocked kitchen and smart TV mentioned. However, suggestions for improvements such as bathroom privacy, an extractor fan, and refreshed artwork indicate some areas could be enhanced.
While guests mention thoughtful gestures like a cream tea welcome, there is insufficient information to determine a consistent level of thoughtfulness across all stays, and as such, gifts are not guaranteed.
About this property
Picturesque cottage in the grounds of an ancient Cornish manor house, set in a peaceful valley with spectacular mature trees, just outside Blisland village with its famous real-ale pub and Grade-1 listed church. Dick is the middle cottage of the three converted from barns at Lavethan and has bags of charm. The open plan living space is light and airy, a good place to relax and cook family meals to enjoy in the dining area. Head upstairs to bed in the two bedrooms which share a family bathroom and from this level you can head out to one of the lawns. With the lovely coastline close at hand, Dick is an excellent place to stay. Note: This property can be booked with Tom and Harry, together they sleep 15.
Situated under the western edge of granite-bound Bodmin Moor, the village of Blisland retains its age old character and is the only village in Cornwall to have a village green with trees. Around the green, cluster old houses and cottages, as well as the famous, award-winning Blisland Inn.

Cosy, warm and close to the pub! It had all the things you need from a holiday home. The location is lovely and quiet but close enough to lots of things to do. We'd definitely recommend Dick Cottage to our family and friends.
