Maristow Cottage Reviews

We had a great week lovely surroundings ! Pools were both amazing as were the grounds and play areas. The beds were comfortable and the kids loved the bunk beds ! The tennis court was a really good feature and loved the walks although we got lost a few time .
It was a lovely cottage, very clean, all the fixtures and fittings good, pots and pans good quality. Pool and swing park great for the children. The only thing that was disappointing was the internet connection wasn't good at all.
