Skylarks Reviews

Maggie
Skylarks cottage is an absolute gem, well fitted out also tea coffe and dishwasher tabs. Tv with all the channels We were also blown away with the Xmas tree we really didnt expect that. Spotlessly clean, beds really comfortable skylarks is a real credit to the owners. We will definitely be going back in 2024. Oh not to forget the amazing hot tub.
Nicola
Wonderful cottage which is very well equipped. Comfortable, warm, comfy beds, location was great too. Welcome pack for the dogs and us humans, couldnt fault it at all. Would visit again in a heartbeat. Thank you.
What a delightful cottage we really enjoyed our stay and the hot tub was a real treat. We travelled along the coast to lots of beaches and harbour towns, including Looe and Polperro. As we had warmish weather we enjoyed sea swimming every day, especially at Talland Bay. Would recommend a visit to Skylarks for those keen to explore this beautiful area. Christine & Bob
The property itself was fantastic, every detail had been really well thought through! The surroundings were great and my little boy loved the passing tractors and his tour around the farm to see the cows was a big bonus! We would most definitely stay again without doubt!! Thank you for a wonderful holiday!!
Wonderful place to stay ,the most idyllic location. Home furnished beautifully and the comfiest beds ever ! Perfect location for Looe ,Polperro ,Polzeath ,Fabulous day at Rock then ferry over to Padstow then gorgeous hot tub on return .Very highly recommend and great hosts too .
A truly wonderful place to stay, perfect location out of town but not too far away when we wanted to head out, clean well layed out and the owner was always on hand for any questions. The Hot Tub went down a treat Cant wait to return
We had a wonderful stay in this property. The views are stunning and so peaceful. The house is very comfortable, beautifully decorated and well equipped. We took 2 Labradors with us and even they were catered for with their own welcome pack of bed, bowl and treats etc. They both appreciated that very much! Everything was just perfect and we had some much needed quality time as a family. Very enjoyable getaway.
Where do I start . . A very deceiving cottage is Skylarks .. a bit of a Tardis , interior is laid out very well 3 good double rooms all a good size , comfortable beds , bathroom facilities upstairs and down was a plus .. especially having 2 showers . Big lounge nice furniture ,, TV with ALL the channels . Kitchen was large enough to cook and have a dining table for 6 without being in the way , very well equipped as well even down to fresh coffee teasugarinstant coffee jars full to the brim .. some really nice touches . Oh yes and the Hot tub in the garden just to finish things off . would recommend Skylarks without any hesitation at all , just far enough out of town , Looe only about 6 miles away . All in all a lovely break Thank you . regards Dave .

This place absolutely blew us away from the minute we opened the door we were like children running around choosing our bedrooms and jumping on the beds with excitement. We were 2 couples 40s & 50s wanting a nice relaxing break away with the dog and that's exactly what we got. Also celebrating a big birthday made it even more special. The cottage is beautifully decorated to the very high standard , super spacious and has a real cosy, home from home feel to it. You can tell its recently been done up as everything is so fresh and new. The owner has obviously put a lot of time, thought and effort into making Skylarks the perfect holiday home. The downstairs bathroom is very stylish and the 2 bedrooms we used were comfy with plenty of hanging space which also included a dressing gown each and nice thick quality towels. The private courtyard is a perfect safe space for the dog he loved it and even made friends with the dog next door even if it was only through the upstairs window where they would spend hours just looking at each other. The hot tub was a nice touch me and my friend spent hours in there chatting even when it rained . Such a calm , tranquil space. If you want a nice peaceful break exploring Looe and surrounding area this cottage gives you all that and more. Dont be put off by lack of reviews. For walkers wanting to walk into Looe head for Millendreath theres a lovely cafe on the beach . Go to Tregoad caravan park turn right follow road. It is very up and down with steps and hills but a lovely walk. Janice the owner was very friendly and accommodating nothing was to much trouble and she was always on hand with any questions. Thank you , we had such a lovely stay . The cottage is by far the nicest place we have ever stayed. Hopefully see you again whenever that may be.
Skylark is a beautiful cottage with everything you could possibly need the beds ... Skylark is a beautiful cottage with everything you could possibly need the beds were extremely comfy and the whole cottage was spotlessly clean the hot tub was amazing and Janice was so helpful and the welcome pack was a lovely touch we would definitely stop again we didnt want to come home
