Lovely well kept property 5 star.Had a fantastic time, central Cornwall location perfect for both coasts. Surrounding roads are very narrow adds to the charm.

Top notch peaceful stay.

Beautiful, well equipped cottage in a very peaceful location. It was a lovely touch to be left milk and a cream tea (scones, clotted cream & jam). Charles has just had an electric vehicle charger installed so it removed a tonne of stress for us to be able to charge my car whilst at the cottage. Overall, a fantastic stay. I cannot think of an area of improvement.

Pekin Cottage

A beautifully converted barn in a very peaceful/private location. High quality comfortable bedding, an abundance of hot water, delicious home made scones with clotted cream on arrival. Friendly, welcoming hosts.

Lovely one bedroom barn conversion

We enjoyed staying at the property which was ideally placed for travel to both coasts in north Cornwall although the first few miles can be challenging if you're not used to narrow lanes/roads. Property itself was well maintained and well equipped for our needs and if we returned to this area of Cornwall we'd consider it again
