    What's not to like, it's a dream cottage.

    A beautiful little cottage that's absolutely perfect in every way. It is five minutes from my mum and dad's and pet friendly. Welcomed home to Cornwall with another beautiful welcome card from Sally and Peter, a bouquet of fresh tulips, fresh scones with clotted cream and jam. Could easily stay here forever.

    There was nothing to dislike.

    The cottage was a delight, cosy and comfortable. Peter and Sally the owners had very kindly decorated the property for Christmas as well as providing flowers and chocolates. Such kindness made us feel all the more welcome. The cottage was very well equipped and the bedrooms were spacious with comfortable beds. We enjoyed our Christmas at Jowders Cottage.

    The fact that I nearly had a nervous breakdown getting down the tiny alleyway to the parking bay. It might be a good idea to warn people at the time of booking about this as if your driving a van or a 4x4 I'm not sure you would get through. Apart from that lovely place.

    Lovely peaceful location 5 mins from pubs etc. Really Really well appointed property. Loads of lovely thoughtful touches fresh coffee milk, extra heating.

    A slight drawback was access to the parking space which as advised is very tight.

    The location is very good and within a short walk of the centre of Marazion. Nice comfortable cottage with everything we needed. We did not meet the hosts, however the small issue with a lamp not working was remedied the same day. We had a very enjoyable week.

    Getting into parking area not so easy with a larger vehicle but that was well explained up front. The 24 hr car park in the town was fine once unloaded anyway.

    Quirky but roomy living space with comfortable furniture and a homey atmosphere. Main bedroom is large and beautiful too with a view over roofs of the Mount. Loved the little courtyard space too.

    The only drawback was parking, which, in a large car we found to be very difficult. In fairness, this was clearly indicated in information about the cottage at the time of booking and we came knowing it could be a problem. So this is not in any way a criticism of Peter and Sally.

    The location, near the village centre, and the cottage was generally very clean and comfortable, especially the main living room. There was also plenty of detailed information about the property and nearby facilities.

    Nothing that we didn't like.

    Had a wonderful few days staying at this lovely Cornish cottage. We felt relaxed as soon as we walked through the door and it was so cosy and nice to return to after a busy and long day exploring. The cottage has one of the most comfortable and cloud-like beds I've ever slept in! Thank you to Peter and Sally for being such great hosts, we very much appreciated the thoughtful welcoming touches and I was very grateful for all the advice Peter provided prior to our stay which was so helpful. The cottage is located in a great location in Marazion from which to explore even if you don't have a car and we just used the local buses, coastal buses and our legs! Would love to return to this delightful Cornish cottage at some point! :-)

    Quite a lot of drilling and banging next door. Not the fault of Jowders but took away some of the tranquillity. Parking close by but complicated parking on busy road with hazards on to unload. But doable.

    Beautiful self contained cottage with spacious rooms, sitting room and kitchen. Very well equipped for staying one week. Little summer house by tge front door which was perfect for the rainy afternoons when we didn't feel like walking down to the beach or along the coastal path. The south Wwst coastal path and Saint Michael's Mount v close by. Large bathroom with a good shower
