The cottage is lovely and the view from the back where the hot tub is are beautiful sea views, the bed was very comfy but I thought the sofa was to low to sit on probably because I have a bad hip ,we but all in all we had a lovely little break there and Phil and Zoe were lovely .

Noel

Amazingly beautiful place and surroundings, the little touches of lighting candles, rose petals on the bed and some bubbles on ice made it that bit more perfect. My wife and I enjoyed soaking our troubles away in the hot tub, bathed in blue skies and just the sound of birds and bees, so tranquil. Thank you so much.

David

Absolutely fantastic property to stay in. Everything was clean & the property is very cosy and romantic. The hot tub was fab as was everything else. Ideal location to explore the area and only 9 miles from Land's End. Yes this property is expensive to rent, but you get what you pay for, and this property didn't disappoint on any level. The gifts fr om the owners on our arrival is a very nice touch. Busy saving up to visit again!!!
