    The low ceilings are easily forgotten and being 5ft 10ins meant I kept banging my hands on the ceiling. Floor to ceiling height is about as high as a standard door 6ft 9ins.

    The peace and quiet was wonderful I couldn't remember when I was last able to hear myself think. The owner was absolutely lovely and she is very kind and thoughtful and standing there saying goodbye made me feel like a son to his mother and think to myself you shouldn't both be doing this now at your time of life, you should be here and retired yourselves. Some people are really lovely. X

    Nothing we didn't like, but glad we took our own cafetiere, and we did miss our beanbags to put our feet up at night (we are getting set in our ways and like our home comforts!!)

    Very comfortable and compact accommodation (just right for the two of us) set in a peaceful, pretty and secluded garden. Jenny was a most welcoming and informative host - on hand when we needed her. Within walking distance to the village pub for our evening meal!

    Such a lovely spot with glorious gardens and the chalet is so cosy and secluded with everything you need. The bed was super comfortable, the shower was better than many I have experienced in this part of Cornwall and Jenny was friendly and helpful without being intrusive. Genuinely enjoyed this stay and would like to return with my husband. Also received a 'farewell goodie bag' which was a very kind and thoughtful touch that was much appreciated. Next time I return I hope to hear how Jenny's charity skydive (respect!) this Friday went.

    I would have liked to have been able to have the opportunity to have swapped the quilt for a thinner one or have the use of a sheet. The quilt was absolutely lovely, thick and sooo comfy but so hot!! If it had been the weather we had enjoyed earlier in the year, and to be fair we were very lucky on the temperature this week being very warm, but we found it hard to sleep because it was too hot. The chalet is well ventilated but even with the bedroom windows open during the night, it was very warm. I think there was actually a portable fan but they are noisy to keep on at night. There is a very nice wooden trunk in the bedroom that was empty , that maybe a thinner quilt could have been in there to use. This is being very pickie and my apologies to Geoff for not mentioning it before we left in person, but I forgot😢 It is just something that might be an idea for the summertime rentals in the future. I know a lot of my friends of a similar age have the same problem with temperatures!! 😂😂

    The property was clean, well equipped and although it was self catering, basic towels, tee towels, washing up liquid, hand soap, toilet rolls, were all there to use. There was complimentary tea, coffee, sugar and milk on welcome. communication before the visit was good , with clear instructions about entering the property. There were things available to keep the property clean for ourselves.. Everyday , Geoff the owner, spoke to us to ensure all was well and was able to give useful information on where to eat locally and places to visit. There were also fresh garden flowers in a vase in the front room. Beautiful 👌

    Wonderful place to stay, great location and Jenny is a really lovely and welcoming host. She made us feel right at home. The chalet has a separate entrance and you get your own garden space which feels very separate from the rest of the main building ( the garden is immaculate ). Perfect stay. One small note: [If you are very very tall (over 6ft6) then you may struggle standing up as ceiling is quite low. Won't be a problem for majority of people :) ]

    The Chalet was lovely, it had everything we needed. Great location. The hosts were fantastic. Jenny was brilliant, always available to answer any questions I had, and even let us check out a little later so I could attend a zoom meeting before leaving. She also gave us a little goody bag for our journey home which was lovely, and the cookies were fantastic!

    Beautiful accomodation and great hosts. We've appreciated the facilities as it has everything you need for a self catering holiday. It has a nice vibe, a homey feeling that just enhances the experience. You can easily feel how much time and thought the owners invested to make it special.

    Can’t fault anything

    We stayed at the chalet for 4 nights and loved everything it had to offer! Super squeaky clean and comfortable with all the little details one can wish for! The pictures dont do justice at all as the chalet is much bigger and separate rooms! Kitchen had everything we needed to fix a quick meal / brekki! We had our own private space outside in the garden too!! Jenny was lovely and so so helpful! We also got a little journey goody bag on our departure- so thoughtful!! Thank you so much Jenny!! All the best xx

    The Chalet was perfect for my needs, cosy & comfortable, ultra clean and private in a lovely setting. Jenny - the hostess - could not do enough to ensure my stay was pleasant, and was kind enough to even take me for a drive to see the coastline. I used both taxis and the bus service and there was a lovely pub within 5 minutes walking distance who catered for take aways.

    The bed pillows were a bit too soft for our liking. Otherwise could not find anything not to like.

    Well equipped, clean and cosy self contained accommodation for two. Secluded location in the grounds of house offering b & b accommodation for other travellers. Owners very helpful and friendly but left us to our to our own devices. Just outside pleasant village with a good pub. Good location for exploring area.p
