Well equipped and comfortable cottage. Lovely view from the living area and the external seating area. My dog loved the large lawn. Easy access to lots of places and some beautiful places for a walk (The Lizard to Kynance Cove was my favorite)The supermarket is only a short drive away Personally I like cottages like Badgers Drift that are peaceful rather than in the centre of villages. The host are really friendly and Violet their dog likes to make sure guests get a welcome. I would definitely return
