About Pear Tree Cottage

Nestled in a beautiful countryside setting on the outskirts of St. Mellion in Cornwall, lies the superb, one-bedroom holiday home of Pear Tree Cottage.

Boasting ample off-road parking, a gorgeous, enclosed garden, and a collection of well-presented interiors finished to the highest of standards, this fantastic property welcomes a couple and their well-behaved dog for a relaxing, self-catered escape near the magnificent setting of the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Park up outside of your lovely new home-from-home, before you step into an immaculate, well-appointed, open-plan living area, featuring vaulted ceilings embellished with exposed wooden beams and crisp, white walls that serve to brighten the abode.

A fully-equipped kitchen invites you and your loved one to prepare a delicious, home-cooked dinner, whilst a dining table for two or a plush sofa make for ideal spots to savour your culinary creations. To relax, stick a film on the sleek, wall-mounted Smart TV as you're kept warm by a tasteful electric fireplace, or head out back into the enclosed garden, where you'll find a well-manicured lawn scented by potted lavender, a patio with sun loungers, and your very own hot tub, where you can unwind as you watch day roll into night.

When sleep calls, head indoors to refresh with a shower before you tuck yourselves in for a much-needed snooze in a plush king-size bed. If you can tear yourself from your amazing new dwelling, set out to explore your local area.

A brief car trip will bring you into the charming village of St Dominick, where you can stock up on essentials at the Trehill Farm Produce farm shop, whilst a hearty pub lunch can be had at The Who'd Have Thought It Inn. For a full day out, head to the historic landmark of Dupath Well in Callington, before you head east into the Tamar Valley AONB, where you'll discover the Sawmill Cottage, the National Trust property of Cotehele, a working flour mill, Denham Bridge, and the stunning spots of Down Tor and Burrator Reservoir.

Pear Tree Cottage Reviews

Mark and Leanne the owners of the cottage made us feel very welcomed and the cottage is beautiful, very clean and had everything we needed. In a peaceful location, which was an added bonus when enjoying the hot tub and the secure garden gave us peace of mind as we had our little sausage dog Peanut with us. A lovely break away for our anniversary.
Darren
Pear Tree Cottage is the perfect place to spend a relaxing week, far enough away from the hustle and bustle but close enough that you can be in town quickly. The owners were friendly and helpful when required striking the perfect balance for when you just want some time to yourselves.
Lynette
We had a fabulous 2 week stay at pear tree cottage. The cottage had everything you needed and quiet setting. The garden was totally secure for our 2 small dogs. The hosts Mark and LeeAnne where really friendly and helpful nothing was to much trouble for them. If we visit cornwell again we will definitely stay at pear tree cottage.
Matthew
We had a lovely stay at pear tree cottage everything you could ask for from a holiday destination. The accommodation was very clean and tidy on arrival also a small welcome pack which is always a nice touch.Overall a great place to stay ideally situated to explore the local area highly recommend.p.s otis enjoyed the dogs treats.
Pear tree cottage was beautiful. Excellent quality furnishings, very well equipped. Excellent parking, enclosed garden that our dog enjoyed whilst we enjoyed the hot tub. A very comfortable 4star stay would highly recommend .
We stayed for a week at Pear Tree Cottage and we absolutely cannot find a single negative or criticism, apart from our stay was to short! The cottage is immaculately clean and has everything you could possibly need. The bed is super comfy and the whole place is very cosy. The hot tub was an added bonus that we enjoyed every morning and evening. The garden is super secure and with a 60kg Alaskan Malamute that was extremely important to us!! Mark and LeeAnn were super quick to respond to any questions we had, even before our arrival which was very welcoming. They live next door but we never saw them and they absolutely respected our privacy. Thank you for an amazing stay!
Kieran
Simply fantastic from start to finish! The hosts were fantastic, it was easy to find once off the main road and is close to lots of local facilities. The property is well thought out, managed well and is very comfy and suited us perfectly for the week. We were hesitant about taking our dog as some places say they are dog friendly and dont appear it. However, this property is totally safe for a dog to roam the garden and are welcome to come with bowl and mat provided for the dogs! We will absolutely be back again, cannot thank the hosts enough for our stay. To top it off, a perfect hot tub!
Andrew
Pear Tree Cottage is a unique holiday home in an idyllic setting down a quiet country lane. The owner was very welcoming and accommodating and we had a very pleasant stay. He kept in touch with us and responded quickly to any queries that we had, despite being away himself. There were however a few issues that did affect our stay such as there being no freezer as it had gone wrong, the garden umbrella being broken and the kitchen fridge either dripping water but then freezing our food when we turned it up a notch. These are mainly maintenance issues that need rectifying, although we appreciate that the owner has not had the property for long and may not be aware of certain things that need to be fixed. The property was very clean and neat and tidy, but a few bits of cleaning missed such as the patio table. Overall though we would definitely recommend this property and would stay there again.
Adrian
We will definitely be back
Charlie
Lovely little hideaway, very peaceful and relaxing with all the amenities required.
Tricia
We had a really peaceful time at Pear Tree Cottage. Tastefully presented and clean, with all we needed to enjoy our five night stay. Good communication from Mark which made us feel we could call on him if needed. The hot tub and the walled garden was a draw to us which didn't disappoint. A lot of properties state that they have dog friendly gardens but aren't in reality, Pear Tree Cottage really is safe for dogs.
Beautiful property, very quiet and peaceful, the only thing you can hear are the birds and cows. Mark and LeeAnne were very friendly and helpful, the welcome pack with biscuits and strawberries etc much appreciated and the dogs loved the treats. The facilities were like a home from home, our dogs really loved the garden which being walled in was very safe for them. We didn't use the hot tub as the weather was too warm for us to use it but it's a nice addition. Big thank you Mark & LeeAnne for making our stay memorable
This cottage was perfect for our stay in Cornwall. We had a lovely welcoming gift of chocolate and a bottle of apple juice which was very much enjoyed. The cottage was immaculate and we had everything we needed for our weeks stay. Definitely be back in the future .
Raymond
A big thank you to Mark and Leeanne the new owners of Pear Cottage it is in a beautiful location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay the cottage was enclosed and very comfortable and had everything we needed and the hot tub was an added bonus. Everything was lovely and the utility room was amazing. Thank you again Mark and Leeanne
Cottage was really lovely. Cannot fault the place at all.
Pear tree cottage is beautiful, we absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be returning. Although the weather was terrible it didn't matter as we were so comfortable and content in the cottage. The garden was perfect for our nervous dog, it is fully enclosed. The hot tub is an added bonus.
Stephen
Thank you for a lovely stay at pear tree cottage, we loved the partridges at pear tree. The cottage was lovely and comfortable perfect for a winter break with the underfloor heating. We really enjoyed our stay and thought the cottage was great. Normally we never stay in the same place more than once, but we both said we would certainly be happy to holiday in pear tree cottage again.
Had a great time at Pear Tree Cottage. Very secluded with the walls around the property which was great for our dog, she had no chance of escaping. Liked the utility room which was great to hang all your wet gear, so warm in there. The Hot tub, what a godsend for this time of year, very warm to relax your muscles when you wake up or after a long day out. Overall a great warm cottage throughout. Thanks Natalie.
We had such a nice time every thing you could need for a winter break. Good area for getting around and seeing Cornwall nice walks.
Absolute perfection. Top quality hot tub and facilities no expense spared.
A beautiful cottage in a great location. The cottage was spotless and well equipped. We didnt have the greatest weather when we were away but that didnt stop us enjoying everything. The enclosed garden was super safe for our doggies who want to be outside come rain or shine! and totally private so we could enjoy the hot tub in peace. One of my favourite cottages so far of our many trips to Cornwall. We hope to return.
We have been super impressed with Pear Tree Cottage! Its a beautiful place to stay! It had everything we needed and I cooked a 3 course Christmas Dinner with all the trimmings!! and had a separate building for utilities! We really struggle to find places that are good for our dogs, lots say they accept pets but miss certain features that make them dog friendly, or compromise on the quality of decor and furniture. We found this place really was the best of both, everything was lovely and clean, and the high walled enclosed garden was a god send for us, this meant that we could let them out to toilet without having to lead them round, and we had privacy so they werent reacting to people walking past the property all the time. It also had a hot tub for us to relax in which is an added bonus! Its been the best Christmas and we have been so impressed, will definitely be back!!
Lovely stay with you guys in a lovely open area, would recommend this place to anyone.
We had a wonderful stay at Pear Tree Cottage. Walled garden is perfect for the dogs, much bigger than anticipated, and the outdoor utility was a god send for our wet coats and walking boots. The cottage is modern and clean while still offering the warm home comforts. Kitchen is very well equipped. Bed was incredibly comfortable. Hot tub is great, very spacious and clean. The fire was such a cosy addition, and very welcome especially during Storm Ciarn. Beautiful rural location, lots of lovely dog walks in the surrounding area. Natalie was great, very helpful and friendly. Left us a lovely welcome pack, with treats for both us and the dogs, which was really touching and very much appreciated. We will definitely be back soon! Thank you again for a lovely stay
Nicola
Me and my partner has a lovely time. The property was clean and comfortable and the hot tub was lovely. The walled garden was fantastic for the dog and they even left us a little welcome pack with milk, tea bags, chocolate, biscuits and dog treats! They also left a nice folder with info on local places to eat and things to do. You cannot leave your dog unattended at all which was slightly inconvenient for us as we would have liked to pop to the shops or go out for dinner. Didnt ruin the holiday though but something to note.
Warm, welcoming and a stunning property with everything you needed and more, ... Warm, welcoming and a stunning property with everything you needed and more, wouldnt hesitate in coming back and had such a brilliant time
We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our weeks stay at Pear Tree Cottage, from Natalies welcome on arrival to the excellent facilities within the cottage. We stayed with our two dogs and were delighted that the property was enclosed allowing them to wander and us to relax. This cottage is well situated for exploring lovely Cornwall and indeed west Devon. Would highly recommend and we look forward to returning in the future. Many Thanks.
Certainly no cottage, More akin to a stable. And next to a cow field. From leaking and loose shower fixings to passive aggressive dont do this signs for everything. Bathroom tap loose. Shower loose and not enclosed so water everywhere!! Constant flies everywhere due to long uncut grass and the messy builders yard next door. Unable to alter any heating so towel rail was essentially an ornament. No storage and in the week long stay not once did the owners pop in to introduce themselves. All in all over priced and under delivered.
The cottage is perfect for a couple. Anyone who stays there will want for nothing, fully furnished and fully equipped. The outside space is fantastic, table and chairs, sun loungers and the hot tub.
What a beautiful little cottage! This place is perfect in every way, well done Natalie and Ben Owners for thinking of everything, and creating such a wonderful experience for my wife and I and our 2 dogs on our Anniversary. We will highly recommend to our friends & family, and most definitely come back ourselves.
We would like to thank Natalie & Ben for our recent stay at Pear Tree Cottage. The attention to detail is amazing, even down to our little welcome gifts, including little treats & poo bags for our dog
Georgia
