Wonderful place to stay!Welcomed by the hosts with homemade scones, property has everything you need, and feels likes it's in its own little world - perfect "escape" feeling. Best part by far is the huge garden, equipped with chairs, tables, badminton equipment, football and goal, swings... Beautiful place to unwind or play some games.

We loved our Easter weekend stay at this charming property, very clean and had all the amenities we would need for our stay. The hosts are so thoughtful, and have a great attention to detail. The grounds were amazing, perfect to wander around and plenty of space to have a kick about with the kids.We hope to return soon!

Charming Barn conversion

We really enjoyed our stay here. The property is adorable, with small touches that make a difference. It did rain a lot while we were there - but we expected that on the moors! Overall, we loved it.

It was really great to meet you all. Thank you, for leaving everything so pristine! Such a pity that 5 weeks of solid sunshine should end before you came, but we are so glad that the rain did not spoil your enjoyment of Cornwall. Do come again! You will be most welcome here! ( and perhaps we can show you Cornish sunshine)

Last minute booking as lockdown lifted

As our holiday abroard was cancelled we booked last minute into this accomadation - we were not disappointed. Great cottage with a lovely garden in secluded setting. If you love getting away from it all and having picuresque walks, this is the place for you. Geat local pubs (within 4 miles), disused railway walk alongside the river (camel trail) and beautiful Bodmin Moore, fully recommend it.

Absolute bliss

Great location for touring this part of Cornwall. Very narrow lanes everywhere so take your time driving and enjoy the experience. House very comfortable. A treat to be able to sit in the peaceful garden and enjoy the views and the birds. Hosts excellent, from welcome Cornish tea to travel snacks on departure. Thanks a lot.

Lovely cottage and massive gardens

We had a fantastic family stay in this lovely cottage. Gerard & Linda were excellent hosts, providing welcome scones on arrival, easter eggs for the children, and we were given chocolate brownies for the journey home. The cottage is very comfortable and cosy. The garden is amazing. We enjoyed walks from the cottage, including through the fields with the dog, to the village pub. Padstow & Rock were circa 40 mins drive & great day out. Good Wifi for 'working from home'. We would love to go back again!

Perfect cottage and hosts

Perfect for us as a family of five adults and one seven month old baby. The property was well equipped with everything we needed. Gerard and Linda are the best hosts we have ever had, lovely people and all the treats, fresh flowers in every room, home made scones and bread and a leaving present of home made brownies! Plus, a hand made birthday card for me. The garden was great fun with all the outdoor equipment in the utility room. A great cottage and very friendly hosts. I would highly recommend.

Jahrhundertealtes uriges Ferienhaus, typisch englisch

Über 300 Jahre altes volleingerichtetes freistehendes Haus , das nach engl. Gustus ausgestattet ist. Es fehlte an nichts. Wird für bis zu 6 Personen angeboten (sechs Betten), aber der Wohnraum kann max 4 Personen beherbergen. Wir waren zu zweit, passte also perfekt. Da in ornwall alle Häuser in der Art (gelsenkirchener Barock, abgewohnt) eingerichtet sind, soll dies kein Nagativkriterium darstellen, daher volle Punkte. Wenn man die Kultur nicht mag, darf nicht dorthin Urlaub machen. Die Vermieter/Inhaber sind sehr freundlich und offen und haben zur Begrüßung Obst, marmelade, Butter und clotted vream u.a. bereitgestellt. Der pfeis von 300,- EUR ist zwar sehr hoch, aber darunter bekommt man halt nicht gleichwertiges. Dieser ist ja auch vorher bekannt.

Thank you for your review. It was nice to meet you. The living room in the cottage can indeed accommodate 6 people and we do have many families and groups of 6 staying who find it very comfortable. In the living area there is a 2 seater sofa, a 3 seater sofa and a tub armchair. In the dining area is a table which takes 6 dining chairs (2 are in the hall when not required). The total cost was closer to €230 per night, which we think is very reasonable. Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung. ES war schön dich zu treffen. Das Wohnzimmer im Cottage bietet tatsächlich Platz für 6 Personen und wir haben viele Familien und Gruppen von 6 Personen, die es sehr komfortabel finden. Im Wohnbereich gibt es ein 2-Sitzer-Sofa, ein 3-Sitzer-Sofa und einen Wannensessel. Im Essbereich steht ein Tisch mit Platz für sechs Esszimmerstühle (zwei stehen im Flur, wenn sie nicht benötigt werden). Die Gesamtkosten lagen eher bei 230 € pro Nacht, was wir für sehr angemessen halten.

Traumferien in einem wunderschönen Cottage

Auf die sehr herzliche Begrüssung durch Linda und Gerard folgte eine süsse Überraschung: von Linda selbstgebackene scones mit clotted cream und selbstgemacher jam: traumhaft!! Das cottage ist sehr komfortabel, die Betten und Kissen vom Besten. Der grosse und gepflegte Garten lädt zum Verweilen oder Spielen ein.

Why they chose this property

This is the perfect place if you want peace and quiet but still be within a reasonable distance of Cornwalls many sights and attractions. There are also lots of walks nearby and we are only a short distance from the popular Camel Trail popular with walkers and cyclists, if you feel energetic! Blisland, a favourite of John Betjeman and unique in Cornwall for its village green, is situated in a wonderfully sheltered position on the western slopes of Bodmin Moor and is ideally situated for both north and south coasts. Guests have an enviable choice of attractions on the doorstep, ranging from cycling (or walking) the Camel Trail, exploring the moor with its wooded valleys, waterfalls and majestic tors or visiting the well known houses & gardens,

What makes this property unique

We are uniquely situated in Cornwall with the North and South coast being only a 30 minute drive away. A lot of the major attractions in Cornwall such as Eden Project, Lost Gardens of Heligan, Lanhydrock House and Port Isaac to name but a few, all within a 30 minute drive.
We guarantee a warm Cornish welcome!
