Just off the lounge/kitchen/diner you will find the comfy double bedroom complete with TV and en-suite shower room with WC.

Stepping outside from the living area, you can relax and unwind in the delightful enclosed garden with patio area, garden furniture and BBQ.

Very well presented accommodation. Particularly suited for those with a canine companion as there is a small secure garden as part of the property and a generous, secure paddock which, with the kind permission of the owners, is available for safely exercising your pet.

A perfect home from home. Great base to visit all the coast line in north cornwall and over the border into Devon. Quiet location and the garden is a perfect sun trap. Owners were very friendly and gave great advise on the local area. A great holiday.

Great cottage in great location for travelling around. Paddock area was excellent for the dogs early morning exercise and evening run around. Owners were lovely and even arranged to have a couple of jackets parcelled up and sent to us after we accidentally left them behind. Really enjoyable holiday and just what we needed.
