The Old Stable in Cornwall is a quaint and cosy cottage praised for its excellent location near the beach and its overall charm. Guests appreciate the comfortable bed and the property's suitability for pets. While some find the space small and quirky, the unique character and proximity to coastal walks contribute to a memorable stay. The village's friendly atmosphere and scenic surroundings are also noted.

Cleanliness

The cottage generally receives positive remarks for cleanliness, with guests finding it well-kept. There are isolated mentions of dog hair and mould, but these seem to be exceptions rather than the rule.

Location

The location is highly praised for its closeness to the beach and the peaceful village setting, making it an ideal spot for guests looking to enjoy coastal walks and sea swimming.

Comfort

Guests find the bed comfortable and the cottage cosy, although some report the bedroom as small and the property as not practical for longer stays due to its size.

Facilities

The facilities are adequate for short stays, but guests note issues with the extractor fans and limited cooking facilities. Maintenance concerns, such as the need for mould treatment, affect the score.

Thoughtfulness

The provision of tea, coffee, and biscuits is appreciated, indicating a thoughtful host. However, as not all reviews mention gifts, and to ensure expectations are managed, it's noted that such gestures, while delightful, are not guaranteed.

About this property

St Keverne 2 miles. Resting in the small fishing village of Porthallow near the pretty village of St Keverne, is this pet-friendly, detached, stone stable which has been converted into a tiny home: The Old Stable. Sleeping just two guests on a mezzanine sleeping platform, The Old Stable is a quirky, alternative property for those who are looking for something a little different whilst enjoying all that Cornwall has to offer. With the added advantage of an idyllic, dog-friendly all year round, pebble cove beach just a short stroll away where you can imagine romantic walks on the beach with your pooch. Upon entering the property, there is a kitchenette (Note: There is also a microwave and toaster), which is great for preparing a picnic for your long day exploring, and a breakfast bar for you to enjoy a spot of breakfast with your loved one. Cuddle up on the sofa in the evening and enjoy your favourite programmes. Continue through into the utility room with a handy tumble dryer, and then into the wet room which is a great space to freshen up before you head out for the day exploring. The moveable stairs lead to the mezzanine sleeping platform (with limited head height) has a double bed and a Velux window to let in the sea breeze. The ideal holiday destination for dog lovers, The Old Stable is a romantic and picturesque setting for your next adventure to Cornwall and the Lizard Peninsula.
