The Riblows, Cape Cornwall Reviews

Lovely property for a family get together. Numerous walks from the house. St.Just is an easy walk away with a wide array of shops, a couple of nice pubs and even an art gallery. Riblows was very comfortable and well equipped. The enclosed garden was extensive and well tended. We loved the sauna ! The cinema room was a bonus on rainy days. We would highly recommend the Riblows as a place to stay.
Love the property and the area, hope to revisit again soon. Slight problem with the outside lights but the hosts were really helpful.
Teresa
The most beautiful holiday home. There is not a thing that has been forgotten to make your time here a pleasure. The house is actually better than the pictures show. Lorna and Harvey are the most friendly and kind owners and put themselves out to come along and make sure all was ok. You will not be disappointed if you book to stay here. We will 100 be back.
A beautifully renovated barn, with luxury accessories and furniture through out. Quiet and serene, but homely. Private with hot tub and sauna, sun setting over the sea views from the garden. Beautiful!

Stephen
A lovely location which we have stayed at before. The cottage was well equipped comfortable had everything you would need. We loved the sauna and the wood fired hot tub!
We had a lovely relaxing week at the Riblows. The property was as advertised and very spacious, clean and comfortable with lots of extra touches It more than met our expectations. The property is in a beautiful location, minutes away from the coastal path with fantastic views. We watched stunning sunsets without leaving the garden. Would highly recommend the Riblows
Lovely location. Very comfortable with every amenity required for our stay. Highly recommended.
Fabulous house in a beautiful setting! It had everything you could possibly need, and felt like a real home from home. We were welcomed with beautiful flowers and welcome hamper with lots of local produce, which we loved! And Lorna was attentive and checked in when there was an issue with a nearby houses electricity to make sure everything was ok. We didnt use the hot tub given the weather, but absolutely loved the sauna which was really easy to use! Great walks nearby as well as easy access to drive out and explore. We were also really impressed with St Just and made use of the amenities close by, easily walkable. Lovely place to stay and we hope to visit again soon! Thanks again!
Richard
We would certainly recommend The Riblows to friends and will be rebooking in 2025! The property is very comfortable, spacious and just as it appears on the website. I particularly enjoyed being able to warm up in the sauna after a day out on the coastal path. If you like walking, its about 5 mins walk out of the farm to get onto the south west coastal path and seriously good views. We spotted seals throughout the week so dont forget your binoculars. For those travelling with dogs. The garden is enclosed and secure. There isnt any traffic in the farm apart from those livingstaying there and the cottage faces away from the track. Our dog loved the underfloor heating and would find his spot of maximum coziness to flop out when we came back. Probably our most dog friendly cottage to date.
Patrick
This is the loveliest cottage we have ever stayed at for a holiday. The accommodation is beautiful, of a very high standard, warm and cosy. It is located in a wonderful part of Cornwall with fabulous beaches only a short distance away. The owners live near by and provided a very warm welcome and extremely helpful.
Fantastic cottage in a beautiful part of Cornwall. We would highly recommend
Wonderful stay with friends at The Riblows. Perfect, rural setting, yet within walking distance to the nearest village St Just. The cottage was wellequipped and super comfortable, toasty warm in January. Plenty of space for six adults... large kitchen diner, and cooking facilities were ideal. Huge sofas, a cinema room, lovely dog 'room' under the stairs very cute and the sauna and hot tub made for a relaxing weekend. The owners were super helpful and provided a luxury welcome box, which was much appreciated and very generous. Highly recommend!
Antonia
I recently stayed at Riblows Cottage and had a fantastic time. The cottage boasts excellent facilities, and everyone enjoyed them the sauna was my personal favorite. The informative welcome pack and the amazing welcome package, particularly appreciated after a long drive, made the experience even more enjoyable. The area is charming, with convenient walking distance to shops and numerous sightseeing places. I would 100 recommend booking this cottage, and would hope to visit again in the future.
Shirley
The Riblows was fantastic, our second visit and no t our last. We stayed over Christmas truly magical. The Riblows feels like a home and not a holiday let, so many beautiful touches. Top of the range appliances, kettle, coffee machine toaster and food mixer. Welcome packs containing local artisan products. The weather was very windy and wet but that did not stop us from enjoying the great location and walking our dogs. Exceptional place to stay and hosts.
Excellent property well equipped lovely owners very willing to help amazing hamper of goodies on arrival hot tub was wonderful we highly recommend this property.
Amazing place to stay with such attention to detail in the house. The welcome box of food was fantastic my boys loved the fact the mini fridge in the cinema room was stocked! Location is good for walks with the dogs. Thanks for a brilliant stay we will definitely be back!
We have just returned from a glorious week at The Riblows. What a stunning place! Fabulous location, beautiful house and high quality furnishings.The welcome pack is unbelievable, full of gorgeous local produce, including vegetables, fruits and cheese. The kitchen was a pleasure to cook and eat in, so well equipped with everything that you could possibly need. The owner Harvey was lovely, really helpful, offering suggestions for great places to eat and visit. Nothing was too much trouble for him. The wifi was great and the cinema room is a fantastic addition. This really is a top quality place to visit and we can't wait to return.
Weve stayed at many rental properties and this is definitely right up there as one of the best. Very clean, good kitchen facilities with all utensils you could need and the general attention to detail is great. Very cosy and the hot tub is an added bonus. We had a well behaved dog with us this time and the special bed location under the stairs is really appreciated. St Just is a good location, with plenty to do do we never got the chance to use the cinema room maybe next time!!! Cant wait to go back!!!!
We were so looking forward to our holiday staying at The Riblows. On arrival, we were very impressed with the beautiful decor and luxurious furnishings and overall presentation of each room. We were blown away by the very thoughtful and generous welcome pack containing fresh fruit, vegetables, salad, crisps, chocolate, cheese, bread, eggs, butter, milk, fruit juice & muesli. Absolutely outstanding. Each of the bedrooms were very tastfully decorated and comfortable along with the practical ensuites with added touches of nice soap and room fragrance. The family enjoyed the cinema room with the added bonus of sweets and drinks supplied in the fridge. The outdoor space was Incredible. Lovely garden furniture to use along with superb views of the sea and surrounding countryside. Our dogs thoroughly enjoyed the safe enclosed garden. We visited some beautiful places, Cape Cornwall just a short walk away with stunning views of the dramatic coastline. We went to Sennen cove and then on to Gwynver beach around the next cove, stunning. We had a lovely day on the beach at Portcurno, beautiful sweep of golden sand and dog friendly, sea was rough so no swimming sadly but spectacular waves. Mousehole very pretty, but does get very busy, but worth a visit for the lovely shops. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday in Cornwall which was made extra special by staying in such a beautiful holiday property. Would highly recommend.
We had a brilliant stay at The Riblows. It is a fabulous property with everything you need and more to enjoy your stay. It is in such a peaceful location, perfect for exploring the south of Cornwall. Lorna went the extra mile with lots of homely touches, extras and advice that made our stay even better. We will definitely be back!
Michelle
Simply amazing ! We all had the most wonderful week in St Just from the sunsets to stunning coastal walks, beautiful weather with so much to see dolphins at lands end was definitely a highlight! But the whole experience was made extra special by the stunning accommodation. We all loved it your attention to detail is just fabulous, from your colour co ordinated book shelves to the very welcome welcome pack on arrival . Delicious local produce. The house has everything you could need and more, both the interior and exterior. The owners were warm and friendly and would offer help with any situation, so thoughtful. Just perfect, thank you. We have had an amazing summer break.
Beautiful home with everything you could need from a holiday home. Views of some amazing sunsets and a great spot for star gazing. Welcome boxes were a lovely touch and the whole family had a great holiday. Would definitely recommend
Robert
A big thank you to Lorna and Harvey for making our stay at The Riblows so special. We may not have had the weather but we did have the perfect location and all the amenities. We highly recommend a stay in this beautiful house. Hope to see you again. Rob, Emma and family.
