We really enjoyed our week at Tom, the cottage is cosy, very comfortable and warm, with an endless supply of logs for the wood burner.. The owners made us feel welcome and showed us the Celtic crosses in their garden and gave us some info about the history of the place, fascinating! The location was perfect, lovely surrounding countryside walks, a short walk away from the village where there is a pub (never made it there) and a very useful community shop stocked with essentials and a post office. My only comment would be that the kitchen is looking a bit tired and could do with some updating, nothing serious, we had everything we needed in terms of equipment and appliances, and the cooker was great, oven worked really well!

General layout was good with plenty of space and in a lovely setting.. However the cottage was damp when we arrived and it took several days for the smell to subside. Part of the kitchen wall was mouldy as were some of the walls in the bathroom. We were particularly disappointed with the poor standard of maintenance in the bathroom, namely: the floor in the vicinity of the wc had structurally failed where the floor depressed alarmingly when stood on, unsightly discolouration of the mastic bath seal, mould on walls, broken blind affording little privacy for a ground floor facility and general deterioration of the window frame. There was no positive air extraction in the bathroom other than opening the window. Elsewhere in the main bedroom there was significant open cracking in the plasterwork, the windows had not been adequately cleaned and appeared to have smears of paint on them. In the kitchen the tiled worktops had stained and missing grout, the oven was not clean. The above reflects the general tired appearance of the property and we noted from the visitors book that we were not alone in thinking this. Similar concerns were raised some two years ago, but no action appears to have been taken. We are surprised that this has not been picked up on through your company's vetting process. Overall we did not feel that this was good value for money and would be reluctant to book with you again.

We chose to stay in Tom's cottage near Bodmin.. The cottage was actually far more spacious than the pictures on the website. It was super clean, really well equipped kitchen and lovely and cosy. The quietness was blissful. The caretaker Krysia and her husband were always on hand for any questions we may have and we were greeted with a plate of homemade scones, jam and clotted cream. It was a fabulous stay and we would go back in a heart beat. My two teenage boys and my mum loved it also as everyone had their own space. It was a home from home and we are actually thinking of booking one Christmas.
