We had a wonderful week at The Old Sawmill. The house was spotlessly clean and very comfortable, with a beautiful garden. The thoughtful welcome hamper was a lovely touch and made us feel right at home from the start. The location is unbeatable for peace and quiet, but still an easy drive to shops and supermarkets and not too far from places to visit like Polperro, Looe and Eden Project. We appreciated the reliable Wi-Fi and well-equipped kitchen. A perfect place to relax and enjoy life in the country. We will definitely be back!

The Old Mill House is lovely, so peaceful and quiet, especially after days in the busier resorts. Jamie and Louise the owners are a very helpful and friendly couple and gave good tips on where to go and eat. The cottage is spotless and lovely comfortable beds, sofas and chairs. We would 100% recommend this cottage. Lovely gardens as well, we could not fault it.

The Old Sawmill is a beautifully presented cottage. 2 lovely double bedrooms, with really comfy beds and both are ensuite. Comfy sitting room and a well appointed kitchen.It's nicely out of the way for a quiet peaceful break, just the sounds of the country permeating the air on occasion. The owners, Jamie and Louise are lovely people and very helpful. Louise bakes a great loaf of bread by the way. 😋 I would only have one small criticism, as a large person I found the bath towels too small, however we had taken our own large beach towels, so no problem. All in all, a great holiday, but a long way home for us.My personal recommendations to visit in the area would be, Charlestown and the Duchy of Cornwall nursery, gift shop, deli and restaurant.
