Host was brilliant with a lovely hamper and flowers thank you , fell in love with the cottage situated in a perfect place. Log burner and hot tub was amazing, very relaxing week and will be back
We had a great time at Tamsin‘s Cottage ! The Cottage offers everything you need. The hot tub was loved by the kids. Thank you Lesley for your warm welcome and the welcome pack ! And thanks for the eggs !
Beautiful cottage, with everything you could wish for and more, there was nothing we wanted that was not already there. I could not recommend more highly, a definite 10/10 from me and my family. The owner was so thoughtful, lots of little extra's on arrival, even for our dog!
Lovely peaceful setting. Lesley was very welcoming and the wine, freshly baked scones homemade jam were a nice touch. The house was very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Access to an EV charger was a bonus too.Well recommended.
We had a lovely stay at Tamsin's Cottage. We really appreciated the personal touches, like the scones on arrival! Lesley was friendly and welcoming, but not overly intrusive. The fenced in yard was particularly helpful for our dog and toddler. Overall would highly recommend!
Fantastic converted barn with a real ‘home from home’ feel. The outside space was gorgeous, loved the hot tub and watching the birds and bees. So quiet and peaceful. Lovely close walks for the dog and games indoors were an added bonus that entertained even our teens! We had everything we needed and Lesley had left a very welcoming set of goodies on arrival. Would definitely stay again and only wish we’d booked a week instead of a few nights.
Fabulous welcome pack, Lesley greeted us and made sure everything was ok. Tamsin’s Cottage was everything we expected and more. It felt loved and homely with everything you needed for a great stay. Our dogs were made to feel welcome and the field along the track was a godsend. The hot tub was a great way to relax even when the weather was rough we enjoyed watching the birds in the garden. The information book was full of great suggestions and covered everything you needed to know about. The beds and furniture were super comfy. Great selection of DVD’s, games, books and maps. We can’t wait to return - Thankyou Elaine & George
Stayed there with my husband and 2 dogs. It’s the perfect place to relax and unwind. On arrival the welcome pack was really appreciated and a lovely touch. The property is really clean and there everything you could possibly need there for a relaxing break. The scenery is breathtaking and so much to do in just short car journeys. Would recommend if you want to escape and unwind and see the beautiful scenery of Cornwall. Look forward to going back.
A lovely, charming cottage with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Beautifully situated, peaceful & quiet and the perfect location for exploring Devon abd Cornwall. The hosts couldn't do enough to make our stay extra special and hot tub was great.
We relocated to Cornwall in June 2022 due to a work opportunity for my husband, when we first pulled into the drive to view Beara Barn and Tamsin's Cottage, we knew it was the property for us. We have kept Tamsin's Cottage running exactly as the previous successful owners did, which the reviews since June 2022, testify to.
Why they chose this property
We love the space, peace and tranquillity, coupled with the amazing views.
