A family break

We shared our summer break this year with one of our daughters and her 3 children: we occupied Bryony cottage and our daughter and family were in Rose Cottage. This proved to be ideal as, when necessary, we each could have privacy but it was easy to open the dividing doors between the 2 properties to share time or meals together. We like the cottages for their comfort and convenience. All “mod cons” are provided and the location could not be better as an ideal base to explore and enjoy the beaches (favourites for our grandchildren) or historic properties or gardens (favourites for my wife and I). As John and Kathryn have said, there are many delightful locations to explore or events to attend. Among other ventures, this time we particularly enjoyed travelling by the Falmouth “Park and Float” ferry to the centre of town before walking to Pendennis Castle (a big adventure for the children!), and on another occasion a separate treat for us by ferry across the River Fal to St Mawes to explore the hillside sub-tropical gardens at Lamorran House. We very much look forward to another holiday based at Higher Lidgey (when time permits!). By the way, on a sunny summer’s day visitors are unlikely to find a better view of a typical English scene than by walking to the top of the lane outside Higher Lidgey, turning round and taking in the view of the avenue of trees!
Response from VrboOwner on 18 March 2020
The flexibility of our accommodation means that all different ages of the family can enjoy the stay and have privacy and fun together! The decking in Rose cottage is large and easily accommodates a family party of 8 for picnics and/or barbeques outside. Lots of joint meals or separate meals can be enjoyed as you like!

Fun in Falmouth

We really enjoyed being at Bryony Cottage. Kathryn was really welcoming and very helpful and available throughout our stay. It felt like a home from home - well designed and easy to be in. Excellent place if you want to retreat. Cottage well insulated and a regular Watership Down with all the bunnies at the back at dusk!

Lovely cottage in super area

Great cottage, beautiful area with fine views, comfortable bed though a touch firm, maybe because it is new. Kitchen has all you need, great location for seeing all of West Cornwall with Lands End in under an hour and many fine harbours to see nearby. Friendly host but gave us our space. Great place for taking our dog, plenty of walking in the fields and rabbits to chase! Falmouth expecially dog-friendly including good restaurants. This Will definitely return again in the future.

Bryony Cottage was perfect accommodation for the two of us , well equipped and in a tranquil locatio

It was clean, well equipped and warm to walk in to after a day walking in the cool wind . We wanted to light the wood burner but couldn’t justify doing so as we would have been too warm ! Piping hot water for shower/ bath . Tranquil, country setting and ideally located to explore the south coast . Would definitely recommend ( have done so already !) and we intend to return .

Lovely, peaceful holiday home

This house was lovely to stay in. Plenty of room for two people and our dog. Our only issue was that we didn't find out until we got to the property that our dog wouldn't be allowed on the furniture or in the bedroom. I feel this is something that should have been advertised beforehand as we have a very cuddly dog! Other than that, the location was lovely and quiet with plenty of things to do near by.

A beutiful well maintained cottage in a quiet environment with acces to interesting trips in Cornwal

We had a wonderful holliday in Cornwall. One of the reasons was our stay in Higher Linley Farm. A beautiful cottage in a quiet environment. All the facilities you need for a stay and verry well maintained. We will remember the sunset in the evening over the landscape, the beautiful walks and the trips we made tot different interesting places in the neighbourhood. If you want to visit Cornwall and stay for a week or more, we suggest Higher Linley Farm

Perfect holiday cottage

This was a return visit for us, and we would love to keep coming back! The cottage is situated in a peaceful and beautiful location, overlooking rolling fields. This year we even had three sheep to say good morning to every day! It is just a few minutes drive to Penryn and Falmouth so everything is within easy reach. The cottage itself was clean and welcoming and had everything we needed for our stay. Would thoroughly recommend if you are looking for a peaceful, relaxed getaway but don’t want to be too far away from the beaches, shops etc. A wonderful experience.

Great holiday home in a central location.

We had a nice, clean and spacious cottage with a fully equipped kitchen a terrace and a small garden. The cottage is located 10 minutes from Falmouth but in a quiet but central location, from where you could easily and quickly get to all regions of Cornwall. Very nice and we will definitely book again.

A relaxing week in Cornwall!

A clean, tidy, well equipped cottage in an idyllic quiet location. We enjoyed a very relaxing week in Bryony cottage, enjoying lots of walks on beaches and coast paths and of course delicious pub meals. When back at the cottage we could switch off and relax in peace and quiet with a lovely view. Will definitely return !

Bryony Cottage, Saint Gluvias, Penryn, Cornwall

We loved the cottage. A great location set in the countryside but easy to get to other places. Lovely walks straight from the door and a secure garden for our dog. Nice and modern and feeling spacious with patio doors opening straight onto the private decking area. One of the nicest holiday cottages we have stayed at and would love to return.

Wow what a find ......

Bryony cottage is absolutely perfect. We arrived to a lovely welcome and a much needed bottle of wine and welcome pack. The drive up to Higher Lidgley farm was incredibly pretty and relaxing and when we turned into the driveway we were greeted by the resident chickens and sheep. Kathryn and John have everything covered, without being at all intrusive. the cottage is fabulously contemporary and at the same time very homely. So quiet, all we heard was the clock .... perfect. There was an information pack with a personal guide to walks, shops, takeaways and restaurants, the local beaches and activities. All extremely well received, even had discount coupon for The Eden Project. The first few days were glorious and the private decking was a little sun trap, perfect to use the BBQ ( being watched over by the farmers cows) ...nothing has been overlooked ... steaming hot water, dishwasher, washer dryer, fridge freezer and a log burner with unlimited amount of logs. I can honestly say, after years of 5* All Inclusive holidays, this little gem in Cornwall has stolen our hearts.

Peaceful , relaxing few days

We booked the Cottage as a last minute get away and it was perfect. beautiful location and a good base for most of Cornwall's attractions. the cottage was well presented and had everything we needed - we loved the log burner. 4 sheep out of the bedroom window, lot's of cows and chickens walking round gave it a real cosy farmy feel. The Cottage is set up a series of tight windy lanes but there is an easier and wider lane to get to it once your settled in and get your bearings. plenty of local shops etc all within a 5/10 minute drive. if your looking for a quiet base then this is a great little cottage and a reasonable price.

Wonderful holidays

We have had two fantastic weeks in the cottages. First we were in Rose Cottage an than we were in Bryony Cottage. The cottages are equipped with everything. We have used the stove in the evening. It was fantastic. In the morning we see the sheeps from our bedroom and in the evening the rabbits. Twice we have seen a fox in the evening. We have also seen a cow calving.We have seen a lot about Cornwall, but not all, so we have to come back. Kathryn was a good landlady. We have felt comfortable.

Our Kind of Cornwall Holiday

We loved the blend of character with contemporary that our cottage overlooking the fields provided. Everything we needed was supplied along with useful information thoughtfully researched by the owners, who were very welcoming and on hand if needed. Doors wide open on sunny days to the log fire cosily lit on rainy evenings, we enjoyed the garden, the sunsets and the stars. There was so much for us to explore in Falmouth and surrounding areas and the location of the cottage was ideal for visiting coves and sandy beaches. We have already planned to return!

The perfect Cornish holiday cottage

Bryony Cottage is situated in a peaceful and beautiful location. It had all the facilities and home comforts we needed to enjoy a wonderful holiday. Falmouth, Penryn and Truro are all a short drive away, and Kathryn and John provided helpful information sheets on the surrounding area including beaches, local walks, and restaurants etc. We had a fantastic week, would throughly recommend this holiday cottage and we definitely plan to go back!
