Gemma
We used it as a base to go visit a lot of different areas of Cornwall on our honeymoon. The apartment was clean and welcoming. Had everything we needed. Our dog loved her stay there as well. She enjoyed the lovely little garden. The one negative about the whole stay was that the bed was quite uncomfortable, and after a full day out, we couldn't get a good night's sleep.

Touches that make all the difference, let alone spotless accommodation, your own private garden and safe parking. We will be re-booking to return, before long. If you're looking for a perfect place to stay, it's here.

Very friendly & helpful owners. A cream tea was very welcome on arrival, & the walled garden was perfect for our Golden Retriever to lay out in. would certainly reccomend this property, easy access to visit all around Cornwall. Weather was good to. Thankyou Cathy & Will we will be back. Barbara & Norman
