    There's plenty of storage (Wardrobe drawers) and a nice comfy King size bed. Tv's in both the living & bedroom with free view & Netflix for the evenings of course as you'll be out all day as there's lots to see! The cottage is within 30/40 mins drive from Looe Charlestown Mevagissey Polperro The Eden project Bodmin Fowey and more. Local Spar at Dobwalls and supermarkets at Liskeard 6 or so miles away off the A38. Relax in the evening in the gardens at the rear of the property with a glass of wine and enjoy the peace and quiet!

    Will stay here again. Everything you need for a restful holiday. The owner provided a worktop freezer. This was very useful.

    Sent email to owners asking it to be cleaned on the Saturday but all we got was sheets changed and clean towels.couldn’t walk barefooted as floor was so dusty.no one came to ask if we had settled in ok.took a long time to sort out tv,s as were quite a few remote controllers . This cottage didn’t do my asthma anygood. Also pictures on line made it look bigger inside .outside gutters leaked when it rained which woke me up in early hours very tatty at back door , needs a lot of work done to outside . Would not stay here again
