We had a lovely stay at Acorn Cottage. The place was spotlessly clean and there were some thoughtful extra touches. We had a really cosy stay and would recommend it to anyone. Thank you.
The property is a lovely little bolt hole.. Fully equipped with everything you need in the kitchen. Lovely clean & fresh.Check in was easy and directions given were great.It has a lovely little patio with beautiful views.It is in a very good location for exploring, we particularly wanted to visit the Lizard area again so that was ideal.
Really lovely and quiet location, just a short drive from the beach (12 mins) and in our 3 day (2 nights) break we were able to visit the Minack Theatre, Lands End, St Michaels Mount, the Seal Sanctuary and Port Isaac (Port Wenn if you’re a Doc Martin fan).We also went to porthLeven twice for dinner so definitely a great positionThe cottage itself is sooo nice, excellently fitted out with a very useable kitchen, and lounge area. The shower is simple to use and the bedroom is comfy.Loved the little patio, make a brew, wrap up and spot satellites… there is no light pollution!We loved our stay here at Acorn cottage and will 100% go back.
Ein ganz herzliches,liebevolles Ankommen. Das Häuschen hat alles was man braucht und ist sehr raffiniert eingerichtet. Sauberkeit war makellos. Julie und Eugene haben es so eingerichtet,dass das Wohlfühlen ganz leicht fällt. (Selbst an regnerischen Tagen). Die Wohnung ist so gelegen,dass man rundherum alles Tolle in Cornwall entdecken kann. Wir würden definitiv wieder kommen.
