Fantastic location to access all local amenities. Getting into the car park can be a bit tight on the narrow road, but worth it for its central location, Early check in was greatly appreciated.

We had a lovely 6 night stay here. Communication was brilliant and instructions really clear before check in.The village is lovely, so many places to eat, enjoy a walk or sit and relax at the beach. The bedrooms were large, and really comfortable for us .The parking is just down from the house, I was a little worried before hand about this but it really isn’t a problem, always plenty of spaces, and a minute walk.There is also a Spar shop a few doors up with a little bit of everything stocked!

3 generations family holiday

This is the third time we have stayed at Cairn Cottage for our annual family holiday . The cottage is perfect for us . It is ideally located for shops , pubs and bakery . The grandchildren enjoy coming back to a familiar place where they can easily go to the shops on their own. The cottage offers everything we need in a wonderful location.

Family holiday at Cairn Cottage

The cottage was ideal for our family of ages ranging from 9 years to 76. The kitchen was very well stocked and the beds were comfortable. The staircase was a bit of a problem, but we had been warned about that. The property was spacious and warm. We really enjoyed our stay, despite the weather.

Close to the beach

Close to the beach, great walks, good pubs, plenty of space. My 83 year old mum got up the stairs fine as some people had mentioned them in other reviews. Car park round the corner and there always seemed to be a space.

Comfortable and spacious for our extended family holiday.

Large and spacious cottage where everyone could have their own room and also get together in the large reception rooms and kitchen. The cottage was ready for us on arrival and was clean and well prepared. We had a lovely holiday in one of our favourite places and were sad to leave. Thank you very much.

Hidden treasure

I would rather keep this forgotten corner of Cornwall a secret! We stayed in this cottage for Xmas as we needed to be near Plymouth where our family lives and works. For us, it was a perfect location. The cottage is very central with convenience shops and pubs close by. We had one problem but the owners tried their very best to fix it as quickly as possible. We would be happy to return in the future.

About the host

Hosted by kate Holdom

Host profile image
My husband and I have two children and in 1997 we moved from London with our two young children for an idyllic life in Cornwall. We did indeed have 7 fabulous years in Kingsand until family circumstances meant that we had
to move back to London for a time. Kingsand is a truly unique place which we all love and miss greatly. We hope you too enjoy our wonderful home and village.




Why they chose this property

Whilst on a tour of Cornwall with a friend I visited Kingsand almost by accident.

On the same trip we visited St Ives, Rock, Padstow and other famous places in Cornwall but for us, none of them compared. We hear this time and again from people who visit.

We feel Kingsand is quite a unique place and hard not to fall in love with.The village is a really friendly place, very much unchanged by time and stunning whatever the weather. Visitors always comment on how much their children love the freedom they are afforded by the safety in the village, a rare thing today. A favorite with little visitors is being sent to the shop, money and list in hand getting the Sunday paper and fresh baked croissants…..very grown up.

What makes this property unique

We hope you enjoy our house and this fabulous area as much as we do.

PS:This place is also doggy heaven!
