Very quiet and secluded

Very quiet and secluded location. Peaceful and serene. We had lovely weather and really enjoyed our stay in Cornwall. Location is in a good location to see many sites and beaches. Would definitely stay again. Thanks

Highly recommended

We had an excellent time here, the kids loved seeing all the animals and the house itself is really nice. Location-wise it's a short drive from the beaches on either coast and therefore a great base for exploring a few different places. The owner is really nice, too. Highly recommended.

Demelza Cottage - Rural Delight

Demelza Cottage if just as described. It offered peace and quiet, but an apartment with every gadget and facility I needed for feeling of home comfort. It is well located to get to the Atlantic and Channel beaches by car and I reached the former on bicycle by road and the Camel Trail. If you chose this accommodation, I know that Kim will ensure your comfort. Peter

Amazing, 100% Recommend!

Me and my partner spent our bank holiday here and it was the most perfect getaway. There is plenty to do within this area including the Eden project, plenty of walks in close proximity of the cottage and it’s also located in a very peaceful area so you can enjoy the countryside bliss. We were also lucky enough to experience feeding little lambs which the host so kindly invited us to. Amazing place, absolutely loved it.

Thanks for the lovely review Georgia. You came at just the right time for the new lambs. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again one day. Maybe the Shepherd's Hut next time, now that you're a fully-fledged shepherd.
