About the host

Hosted by Gemma MacKenzie

Hi, I’m Gemma! Together with my father Paul, we have lovingly restored this cottage into the boutique accommodation you see before you! We hope you enjoy your stay with us as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it for you!

Why they chose this property

Centrally located between Bodmin moor and the North coast beaches, this little cottage makes a great spot to explore the whole of Cornwall. The camel trail cycling route is just 1/2 a mile away. Wile away the evenings listening to LPs on our resident record player, or have a strum on our acoustic guitar in front of the wood burning fire.
