The cottage was perfectly located to enjoy a peaceful holiday, yet within reasonably short travelling distance to seaside towns and villages, Looe, with many shops and restaurants is only 6 or 7 miles away, and we visited other towns and beaches-all within a relatively short distance. A bottle of wine on arrival was a lovely touch , as was the tea and coffee supplies. The owners were really friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay.

Mrs Kemp-ellis

The cottage is clean, tidy and convenient for local facilities and to explore the area.. Set in a lovely position in the countryside peaceful and cosy. The owner's are extremely welcoming and helpful.

Mrs Murrell, September 2020

We were very disappointed with this cottage, cosy isn’t the term we would use but like a little box.. On entering you could smell the damp but tried to ignore it. The first evening went to bed and the springs of the mattress were sticking through so had to sleep on the top of quilt to get small amount of sleep. Karen the host gave us a topper after complaining but even that wasn’t enough as could still feel them. The kitchen part was awful, no work space so couldn’t prepare meal so ended up eating out while we were there. The living part was just a settee which again was very uncomfortable with a tv in front of you, very claustrophobic. We left after a few days as did not feel at all comfortable and could not put up with it any longer. Can not recommend this Cosy Cottage at all.

Cottage was as described - lovely, rural setting.. Owners were very helpful and would recommend.

Mrs Napper, August 2019

Cosy Cottage, cosy by name and cosy by nature.. A wonderful cottage, everything that you could ever expect and more. A beautiful garden to sit out and have meals (the weather was perfect) with the gentle trickle of water from the water ball fountain. A really idyllic place. Everything inside to suit your requirements, fridge, cooker, saucepans etc all looked new. The owner, Barry, was extremely helpful and again anything you wanted you just had to ask (not that I had any need to) only a few directions, but there was a manual in the cottage with a considerable lot of information in it. Thoroughly recommend this beautiful cottage.

Mrs Berry, July 2019
