Peter and Liz were wonderful hosts and nothing was too much trouble. It was the peaceful picturesque setting we wanted to rest and recuperate from work. Thank you.

The Cabin is cosy, well-equipped and beautifully clean - a real home from home. The location is great for staying locally or exploring the North Coast - we did a bit of both visiting Tintagel and Port Isaac, but also enjoyed relaxing at the Cabin as it is so quiet and peaceful, a fantastic place to relax and unwind. As animal lovers, we throughly enjoyed spending time with the alpacas and helping out with feeding time, watching the chickens' antics (whilst keeping an eye out for the handsome rogue, Douglas the cockrel!) and the company and friendship of Bryn and Mag who greeted us each morning and on our return to the cabin after our days out. Liz and Pete are so lovely and friendly, and our welcome pack of Pete's fresh baked bread (the best bread you'll ever taste!), Cornish butter, milk and bacon, along with eggs from their hens was such a thoughtful gesture. We cannot recommend a stay at The Cabin enough - a little slice of heaven nestled away in the Cornish countryside.
