Bear Cottage Reviews

Everything has been thought of, you can tell straight away how proud Maureen is of the gem she has created for guests to share with her. As the cottage is called little bear, there are bears absolutely everywhere, the cottage is extremely tastefully created with that bear touch. Maureen left us some scrumptious scones and apples and all around the cottage she left little things for if you forgot them, such as toiletries, washing aids, candles etc. The cottage is perfect if you take a furry friend both the front and back are fully contained. Maureen even left toys and treats, bowls and blankets for our dog so that she would be comfortable and have fun too.The best bit is having a huge field to use to walk the dog right outside our gate. There is just peace and quiet and all you can hear is the occasional car but all the surrounding birds and wildlife. Absolutely loved the massage chair, used it every evening after we had been walking. The back garden has the sun all day long so we were able to have a hot tub in the morning watching the sun rise and in the early evening while the sun left us and the garden twinkled all night allowing for a Christmas party feel to the end of the day. Having the dog we personally found Perranporth beech absolutely amazing and Falmouth was also a joy to walk around. We had an extremely restful and pleasurable stay. Thank you Maureen. We would love to see you again soon, when there is some availability in your fab cottage.
A fantastic stay! Ideal location, beautiful cottage and wonderful host. We will definitely return in the future!
Excellent property, fantastic amenities Everything we could have wished for. So central for everywhere we needed to go
Michelle
Beautiful cottage in a great location for visiting all that Cornwall has to offer. This cottage is very comfortable with a well equipped kitchen and beautiful bedroom. The outside space is truly dog friendly with peace of mind that your furry friend cannot escape and a lovely hot tub for relaxing in after a long day out walking.
A wonderful cottage in a beautiful setting. We loved our holiday at Bear cottage and would definitely return. It was spacious, very clean and so much thought has gone into the decoration and presentation. The kitchen is wellequipped, the bed is huge and comfortable, the hot tub is brilliant, the views are fantastic and it is very dog friendly with a huge field at the back for them to run around in. The owners Maureen and John are lovely, friendly people and were a pleasure to chat to. Thank you.
Our second but not last visit to Natrisack and the beautiful Little Bear Cottage. Maureen was lovely on our arrival greeting us as usual. If you are looking for a holiday in Cornwall put this at the top of your list as Nantrisack will leave an ever lasting impression on you. See you next year
Graham
Our third time and once again five star. Maureen thinks of every little thing you would need or forget to bring. It is home from home and Bella our dog loves the freedom to go in the adjacent field along with treats left for her. Maureen is a brilliant host always on hand if there is a problem. Booked for next year with fingers crossed for better weather.
The property was very good. Well furnished. Clean. There was a lot of thought that went in to the property. I would highly recommend bear cottage.
Catherine
A fabulous honeymoon at Bear Cottage. This was our second trip, the accommodation is perfect, all the little touches are amazing. We couldnt have wished for a better or more relaxing stay and are looking forward to returning next year.

Sandra
Absolutely fantastic property, amazing bed it was huge and comfortable. Amazing space, loved the hot tub and the massage chair was a real bonus. Within 30 to 40 mins for beaches, Truro cathedral beautiful. Loved the absolute privacy of the cottage. Will definitely go back again.
Lovely place, excellent location for discovering Cornwall. A lot of thaught has gone in to the fittings and furnishings at little Bear cottage making it feel that little bit more special . Many thanks to Maureen for a great stay will be back next year. Steve and Gayle .
Stephen
Beautiful cottage. Had everything you needed. The box of toys for the dogs was lovely. Would recommend cottage to anyone thinking about holiday with dogs. Cottage so clean you would not know dogs had been there. Will certainly be back. Maureen keep up the good work you do.
Where do we begin, Bear Cottage is all you can wish for with every home comfort provided. Maureen the Owner was simply amazing and was always on hand if required. We have spent an amazing relaxing 14 days in one of the best Holiday Cottages we have ever stayed in and cannot wait to return again sometime in the near future. Ian, Julie & Bonnie
Absolutely perfect location & beautiful cottage. Very peaceful with a totally private garden area to relax & enjoy the countryside surroundings. Cottage was extremely well equipped with everything you could imagine for your stay,in fact the best weve stayed at
Bear cottage was the perfect finish to our wedding and the most amazing place to spend our honeymoon. Maureen met us and explained everything in detail and gave us some recommended places that we could take our 2 dogs for dinner. The location is amazing and the little cottage won our hearts so much so, that we rebooked to return in 2024 for our first anniversary.
Our 3rd stay at Bear Cottage, lovely cottage, great location, beautifully clean and presented, we love coming back feels like home from home. Friendly welcome from Maureen. Can't wait to go back later in the year.
Jasmine
We couldn't have asked for a better stay during our wedding for 2 weeks. The cottage was immaculate and had everything and more you could want! Spacious living, lovely garden and hot tub overlooking views and a perfect field behind us to walk our dog on each morning. Great location for sight seeing cornwall. We are returning August 2024!
We had the best stay in bear cottage! Maureen gave us a very warm welcome upon arrival! It made for a perfect location to be able to explore Cornwall for the week! We will be returning for sure! Thanks again, it really was a special week for us!
Hardev
This was our third time to Nantrisack and our first stay in Bear Cottage. The cottage itself is immaculate. There was no dust and considering the cottages are animal friendly we did not even spot a hair. Maureen was fantastic as always, checking in with us on the first day and showing us how the log burner worked. The bed is just amazing. A King size which gave us perfect sleep. The massage chair we were not expecting but I used this each evening and would highly recommend. As well as the cream tea, Maureen left a bottle of wine which went down a treat. The hot tub is good quality and you are not overlooked at all in the garden. Nantrisack itself is an ideal location for exploring Cornwall, everything is just a short drive away. We were not sure what a winter trio to Cornwall was going to be like but we were definitely not disappointed. We are already planning our 4th trip to Nantrisack, the question is returning to a previous cottage or trying another new one! Bear cottage is a contender again!
Lovely comfortable cottage, great location. Maureen came to greet us on arrival with goody bag for Morag, our border terrier and went through heating controls etc, nothing was too much trouble. Planning our return already, will definitely be back.
Jessica
A beautiful, modern holiday cottage with everything you could need during your stay. Brilliant and helpful hosts who made us feel very welcome with really thoughtful touches left for us and our baby. The cottage itself was very clean and in the perfect location for exploring Cornwall. Set in a private spot with a fab hot tub ,secure garden for the dog and a large dog field to use next door.
Our second stay here Absolutely beautiful cottage hot tub, wood burner, accepts furry friends what more could you need! Maureen & John are both lovely, very welcoming and make it known that theyre there if you need anything very approachable! Thank you x
We had an amazing stay in this very stylish, well equipped, immaculately clean cottage. Maureen gave us a lovely welcome on arrival and explained how to use everything in the cottage.The cottage is in such a peaceful location, has everything you need, the private field for your dogs is brilliant. The location is great for visiting all of Cornwall. We would highly recommend this property.
Derwyn
This cottage restored our faith in cottage holidays, we have had a few lately that have not been up to scratch, but this cottage was amazing from the time you pulled in off the main road. . Everything was as described , the property as fantastic views , the peace and calmness of it is what we needed as we had lost one of our dogs a few days before the holiday ,, it was booked for its name bear cottage as we called our dog Chloe bear
Allison
Firstrate accommodation and facilities from the bed and furniture to the toiletries.
The photos really don't do this incredible cottage justice! It was spotless and Maureen made sure we had everything we needed and more! She was so helpful and lovely which really added to our stay and even bought us a cake as we were celebrating my boyfriends birthday. The location was great, only 15 minutes to Truro and 12 minutes to Perranporth Beach by car. We loved it from start to finish and cannot wait to return again!
Catherine
We keep coming back because of the high standard that has been set. The cottage has everything and is just waiting for you to arrive. A lovely retreat and a good base for setting out on adventures. The dogs absolutely love their walks in the attached field and we love the hot tub to relax in everybody's happy! Again
5 star luxury, would recommend. Garden totally dog proof which is important for your four legged friend. Nothing too much trouble, the little added touches really made it a nice relaxing two weeks.
Sandra
We had the most amazing week at Bear Cottage. We arrived late due to traffic. Once we arrived Maureen, came up to make sure we had everything we needed. She is such a great person made us feel very welcome from the start. Nothing was to much trouble. The cottage is so lovely, you could not help but just feel relaxed. This place is definitely a labour of love. Great hot tub & fantastic slipper bath. We would absolutely recommend this place to family & friends. Thank you Nantrisack for a great time. Hope to see you again soon.
Was welcomed to Bear cottage by a lovely cream tea and a beaming smile from Maureen the owner. Everything about this stay was amazing all but the weather. However not even that could stop us from enjoying the cottage and its hot tub. Archie our dog loved his field and visits to the nearby beach. Thanks for a great week and hopefully see you again soon. Mark, Jill and Archie xx
Excellent facilities for humans and your furry friends and the field attached to property is an added bonus and a godsend for furry friends. Perfect location if you want peace and quiet with lots of places to visit plus plenty of walks nearby. Good eating can be found quite close to Bear cottage but not within walking distance. Looking forward to returning
Absolutely perfect. Myself, my husband and our 2 dogs have spent a perfect week here. Decor, is incredible and the overall level of comfort, thought and care which has gone into Bear Cottage is just mind blowing. We stay away on hols a lot, and never stayed anywhere as well thought out, comfy as this. Garden is perfectly secure for the dogs which was fab. Our dogs loved the dog toy station too! Beaches within a 15 minute drive perfectly situated for exploring. Would definitely return
Emmaline
We've just stayed for a week with our two large dogs. All of us couldn't have been made to feel more welcome. The property is beautiful with every need catered for with a huge private field attached to the property, fully secure and fenced in to let our dogs have a good run. The surroundings all around the property are completely secure for dogs. Loved this place and didn't want to leave so we've already booked for next year. It's a great location for driving to different beaches. We went to a different place virtually every day we were there. Lovely local pubs too! Pretty much all dog friendly. Also, they left me a cake and a card for my birthday which was such a lovely touch! Can't wait to go back!
Jackie
Lovely cottage Beautiful decor Very comfortable and really well equipped
WHERE DO I START? Wonderful holiday cottage. Maureen & John owners have literally thought of every last tiny little detail which makes it home from home!...from spare brand new tooth brushes in the bathroom, to pens and paper in the kitchen, just every little thing has been thought of. The cottage is absolutely spotless such a high standard, and so comfortable. The hot tub is incredible, all you can see is Bear Cottage and fields and fields with the patio doors straight in to the bedroom. The cottage is so private with nothing overlooking. We actually booked a week here but left midweek for 2 days to go and get married, and when we got back the cottage had been decorated with 'Mr & Mrs just married' bunting, celebration balloons and champagne. We took some wedding cake to Maureen & John and they very kindly invited us in to their home for a cuppa it felt like we'd been friends for years so very welcoming!! Location not far from Truro, but in the little information book there is local take away information nearest supermarkets etc. Thank you for everything we will definitely be booking again.
Rebecca
Bear Cottage is a fantastic cottage with everything you could possibly wish for to make your holiday as relaxing and comfortable as possible. The setting is beautiful, the owners are extremely kind and welcoming and we enjoyed every minute of our stay. We look forward to returning in the future!
The best. Great cottage which was decorated with so much love and includes everything you could want or need. Dog friendly and the dog walking field wow! 2nd year in a row for us be making it 3 next year. Mark, Kath and Aldo
Our second stay at Bear Cottage, and our third at Nantrisack Holiday Cottages. As always everything perfect at the cottage. We were most disappointed that because of the petrol shortage we could not venture far from Bear Cottage but a perfect place to be in those circumstances. Lottie our English Setter was perfectly safe in the garden and could exercise freely in the field.
