A fantastic cottage with all amenities . Very clean and comfortable and the owners were very friendly and helpful for any information required. Good location for access to the South west coastal path and other local attractions. Would definitely recommend a stay there and would consider a return trip myself .

Lovely cottage. Very peaceful despite being on a road. Very much a working village but better for it. Tricky to walk from the cottage but lots of beautiful coastal walks nearby by car.If you like a softer mattress take a mattress topper with you as beds quite firm. Also ignore the instructions from cottages.com. the house isn't white, and there are no new builds adjacent. It's the first barn on the right going down the hill into the village from Penzance.
