Cottage vacation rentals in Holywell

We spent 3 nights staying at the Mowhay. It was the perfect mix of peaceful hideaway whilst being well connected to major roads and local amenities. The accommodation was well laid out with a very well equipped kitchen. Claire was great at communicating from booking to check out and we met Geoff a couple of times during our stay who was super friendly. Would thoroughly recommend!

This property is absolutely gorgeous and so comfortable! We loved our stay. There was plenty of room and having so many bathrooms was definitely a plus. This was a great home base for our Cornwall adventures!

Lovely little cottage with fantastic hot tub and outdoor space. Walking distance to Polperro village and easy access to the coastal path too.

This was our third stay at Nancy's House. Here are some of the things that drew us back: snug but spacious house that feels loved and lived in, peacefully tucked into a farm where interesting things always seem to be happening, and just a few steps from exhilarating open spaces; lovely hosts. Oh, and the hot-tub is very nice!

A really homely cottage. Perfect for a few days getaway. Unfortunately it rained on our break so ended up stuck inside. It would have been nice to have sat outside more! Overall it has what it says on the tin. Don't go here if you are expecting all mod cons and a pristine home. It's just somewhere cosy to get away from it all, with friendly owners and lots of privacy.

What a beautiful spot, the views are fantastic and there is so much outside space! We loved the fishing lake and hot tub area which made it for us! Prefect lovely and good value.

Tracy was very responsive and helpful. You immediately felt like she really cares that her guests have every comfort and feel welcome. The clotted cream and scones on arrival were a lovely touch that we really appreciated. The cottage was spotlessly clean and had everything you can possibly need. The area was perfect for us and easy to get to all the places we wanted to visit us St Ives, Falmouth to name just two. Our only regret was that it was only a 3 night stay this time but we will be sure to return for longer next time.

Fiona was a fantastic host, loads of info and very friendly. the house is perfect for a family stay and we loved the cream teas left for us. there is tea and coffee and lots of other handy bits. cupboards full of everything could need like pots pans cling film tuppawear... the main bed was very comfy and cot bed provided. the jacuzzi was great but we unfortunately didn't use the pool as we were too busy seeing the sights. the garden is amazing and we felt very at home. We really loved our stay and we would definitely come back and recommend it to our friends and family.

The cottage was very clean and comfortable. We loved relaxing in the warm conservatory after our days out walking. Easy walking access to SW coast path and within 15 minutes car ride of Penzance and St Just.

We loved our stay at the Little Forge. Sue was a superb host and gave us loads of great recommendations. We really appreciated the welcome pack of milk, bread, eggs etc as it meant we could have a lovely lazy morning after our first night. The annexe was exactly as described, extremely well appointed with everything we could need for our week long stay with our dog, including dishwasher and washing machine soaps, good selection of utensils and salt/pepper/oil. The courtyard garden is delightful suntrap and overall the location could not be more peaceful. We’d love to come back again.

Beautiful cottage that has everything you might need, close to pubs and restaurants, in an absolutely breathtaking location

We loved the cottage - charming, quirky and well equipped with modern amenities. The deck made a lovely sunny spot for alfresco dining and the garden is secure for all but the smallest and most determined of dogs! The location is idyllic, peaceful and easy to find, and made a great base for exploring the area - with the added bonus of the kayaks on the estuary at high tide. Nic is a great host - very responsive, and sent a really comprehensive and helpful guide including lots of well-researched tips and suggestions. For eating out we particularly recommend The Cove at Maenporth if you want to treat yourselves to a special meal including local seafood, with gorgeous sea views and a separate menu for dogs! And if you visit the Seal Sanctuary in Gweek, don't miss the Boatyard Cafe - amazing food and couldn't have been kinder to our dog.

Absolutely stunning! spent a week here and it's the loveliest little spot, small but perfectly sized for 2 and a dog. Absolutely lovely host, left little treats for us on arrival and had recommendations in the area but also not intrusive. The cottage itself is perfect, so homey and had everything we could need. we used the log burner every evening while playing one of the board games provided and it was so cozy and nice. The area is absolutely wonderful, beautiful views, path right down to the beach, and so many lovely walks right of the door, we did the majority of our daily outings as a straight walk from the cottage and watched the sunset from the beach each night. the photos really do not do this place justice, it is truly absolutely stunning and we would LOVE to return !

A brilliant place to base ourselves for a few days. The house is in a great location with two brilliant pubs (Plume and The Standard), a fantastic village shop and, of course, The Hidden Hut, all within easy reach. We also enjoyed Towan Beach and the ferry from Place across to St Mawes. Some great walks and places to explore from the doorstep. Thanks for having us.

An amazing cottage, beautiful location. We had such an amazing stay. So peaceful and relaxing. Would highly recommend!

Really lovely place to stay in a great location. Vicky is a very helpful host with helpful instructions and communication. Thank you very much!

My wife & I along with our 3 month old baby spent a week at William's cottage. William is an attentive host, providing clear instructions and assisting with any questions we had in a punctual manner. We primarily used the cottage as a base to explore the area each day and it was a perfect place to come home to. The cottage has been renovated to a high standard with modern fittings. We noted how quiet and cozy the cottage is in the evenings. Porthleven is a small town and the cottage is a 5 minute walk from the harbour. Kota Kai is definitely a recommended restaurant as family friendly and excellent food.

Ideal central location for visiting the various coastal resorts in the area. The accommodation layout and facilities are perfect for a multi night stay. Liaison with Jenna was great.

Such a great place to stay! We loved everything about the Piggery - the location, the way it's been transformed, the layout, the decor, all the different spaces to sit outside, the walks, the proximity to many interesting places. There's so much to do we'll have to go back! One reason we didn't manage to get everything done is it's so nice just hanging out there - peaceful and in the heart of nature. Beautiful!

Made our holiday memorable. Fantastic views,fantastic location and more importantly, was exactly as advertised!

Great accommodation that had everything we needed as a family! We felt very comfortable and would like to stay longer next time. The beautiful garden and nearby beaches were perfect for a relaxing break ❤️🌊☀️

Lovely cottage, beautifully and thoughtfully done. A really wonderful stay in a great part of the world. Thank you!

We had a lovely stay here for our ‘babymoon’ - I didn’t fancy the idea of flying at 7 months and the Cornish coast is a perfect spot for feeling like you’re in another country! Sarah’s place is exactly as described, but it’s also very quiet considering how close it is to the harbour and local pubs. Clean, comfortable, a true home away from home. Thank you Sarah!

This little cosy cottage is just perfect . From the moment you enter through the garden to sitting inside there is an air of peace and relaxation . The garden and raised area above are not overlooked and you can see and hear the sea . The king sized bed is so so comfortable; the kitchen really well equipped and the lounge perfect for sitting relaxing or reading . Our four nights felt like a week . You can walk to the beach by two different paths and up the valley to the mill and Bryan’s to St Mawgan . We loved every minute of being there .
