It is a lovely cottage on a very quiet area.. Very close to the beach but not an easy walk down to it and not suitable for people with poor mobility, as are the stairs in cottage. it i think both of these things should be mentioned. Apart from that its an amazing place to have a relaxing holiday, spotlessly clean and s lovely garden

Beautiful, well appointed home.. Felt very cosy with small luxuries like faux fur throws, hot water bottles for each bed, plenty of deep soft pillows, and a great kitchen ( v small but everything you need is there): Le Creuset cookware, lovely crockery. The owner has a fine artistic eye and the home has wonderful pieces of furniture and pottery. Has board games, DVDs and a few books too. Not ‘on’ the coast paths but only a 3 min walk diwn a quiet path. You can see the sea from the bedrooms at the front of the house. Spectacular beaches/path. Praa Sands is a lovely long sandy beach, coast path to Porthleven is wild and rugged but easily walkable. Worth the walk for a pub lunch/fish and chips sitting on the harbour front. Space for all your walking gear and to do your washing/drying in a roomy utility area if needed. Our dog loved it. Lovely touch: dog bowls, poo bags and dog chews provided. Sitting room has a log fire too. We would definitely recommend this house. Only one negative that you can’t do anything about: relatively low ceiling in sitting room for my husband but he’s 6ft 3....we all loved the house though!

Mrs Wood

Beautifully decorated homely cottage.. Right on the costal path ideal for walks with stunning views. Well equipped and ideally situated to explore Cornwall. The most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. A lovely personal touch with a bottle of bubbly and a scrummy homemade cake. Very sad to leave this beautiful cottage xxxx

Evergreen was totally amazing, we spent a week here and wished it was longer.. The walk to Praa Sands was very enjoyable for both us and the dogs. Beautiful cottage with everything that you could need to hand. We will be staying here again. Rinsey was totally magical

My family had a totally BRILLIANT week in Evergreen.. ..... it was beautiful, comfortable, with all mod cons, everything we could need indoors, and out......even an indoor grapevine dripping grapes ! It was cosy inside for quiet times, and fun to hold a party outside in the garden with great barbecue equipment. We also appreciated the Welcome on the table of homemade cakes and a bottle of Bubbly ! And of course Rinsey is a great location for a holiday, right on the Coastal Path, and with Rinsey Cove just below, the perfect beach with sand And Rockpools....... A Big Thank you to the Owners for creating such a wonderful space to relax and enjoy a perfect holiday week.

We had such a fabulous time at Evergreen.. A beautiful cottage in the most amazing location only a stones throw from Rinsey Cove and the coastal path. The cottage was so clean and comfortable, we couldn't have wished for a more relaxing holiday. A real gem on the Cornish coastline. We will most certainly be back for another holiday as soon as we can.

The interior is very comfortable and stylish with plenty of equipment.. The rear garden is small and overlooked, so not secluded. The boot sale mentioned by the owner in notes could be amplified as a selling point, as it is very big and varied, well worth going to. It would be useful if some notes could be left about the local eateries/pubs as clients have not left that info. Overall a good location, with quick access on to the coastal path.

Mrs Muir

We loved it, loved the cottage, Margaret was helpful and smashing, we had gorgeous weather for the most part but ideally, feel the bathrooms could do with a little updating.. Upstairs shower was as good as useless except for a dwarf, and the downstairs one was rather basic. But all in all, super. Thanks for everything. Jill Muir.

Mrs Cameron

Evergreen is set in a small hamlet of Rinsey just minutes from the footpath that leads you to the coastal path.. The house is ideal for two to four people, but due to the small amount of downstairs living space (lounge and kitchen) I think six would have been too much. I think that this should be noted in your review for Helpful Holidays. The beds were very comfortable and the house clean with nice touches of scones, jam, cream, milk and a bottle of wine left for our arrival. It is ideal place for walking and touring, and we would love to return to this area again.
