Elizabeth
The house was lovely and clean and had everything we possibly could need. The sofas and beds were extremely comfortable and clean. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and even a slow cooker which definitely came in handy to make a chilli while we were out exploring Cornwall. The two wash rooms were ideal as there were 6 of us staying. We were lucky with the heatwave weather so the upside down aspect to the house made the bedrooms lovely and cool during the nights. Plenty of games if the weather isn't great and the kids toy box was a brilliant addition, as it kept out toddler entertained in the evenings. Wish we could of stayed longer but we will definitely be back.

The board games were a blessing on a rainy day. Unfortunately downstairs was very damp, our clothes felt damp and the bed linen & pillows didnt smell very pleasant. No fault of the owners, maybe some dehumidifiers may help?? Little extras like a spare loo roll in each loo and hand soap would be nice. Overall, we had a lovely stay and would recommend 35 Tamar for a good central base for visiting beautiful Cornwall.
