The Piggery was a gem of a find. Everything you could need; a lovely hot tub for relaxing in and a huge paddock for our fur babies to run around in.

Sharon
What a wonderful place to stay for a break away from the busyness of everyday life. The Piggery is well laid out, has everything you need for your stay and was cleaned to a high standard. The hosts, Steve & Jess were very welcoming and happy to help but without being intrusive. The little garden was totally private so we could enjoy the hot tub in peace and was totally fenced in so that we felt safe letting our little dog run free. We hope to return for a full week during warmer weather.
Nancy
We had an incredible stay, thank you so much for having us and making us feel so welcome. The attention to detail was overwhelming and the property was very well looked after.
HELEN
We absolutely loved staying in this cottage! We have been in many self catering cottages and this is by far the best equipped, located and well spaced. The field was perfect for a dog to have a good run and the hot tub was lovely! We literally had everything we needed for the stay with extras added..... the welcoming hamper was fab and it was easy to contact the owner as we needed more wood for the fire. Thank you for a fantastic stay and making us feel so welcome! What a beautiful spot!
Steve
This is an excellent property which has been equipped to a very high standard. It is ideally placed for visiting all of West Cornwall.

Owners are very lovely and there is you need them but stay away if you dont.
