Cornish bolt-hole with a distillery and free tour!
The property is very clean and welcoming! The kitchen is fully equipped, we got logs for the fire, very clear instructions, beautiful and quiet area and great location for our needs. John also offered a free tour in the distillery but unfortunately it didn't work out in our initiaery this time. We would love to stay here again and claim that tour offer ;)

Hendra Retreat Milking Parlour Cottage N. Cornwall
Great value for a lovely quiet retreat for the weekend, easy to get around the North Cornish coast from the location. Accomodation was spotless and very comfortable, would happily stay again as it offered all we need.

The best little caravan in Brixham & Pet friendly.
Lovely place to stay. The kids loved eating breakfast on the little balcony.

Luxury Sea View Accom Boscastle Cornwall
The caravan has absolutely stunning views over a lawn, fields and cliffs to the sea, and is very comfortable. The coastal path and the Boscastle Farm shop and cafe are minutes away by foot. The large lawn is a great asset which our dog greatly appreciated. the property had a good sized terrace which was ideal to watch the sunset and have a drink in the evenings.

Dog friendly, Roof top hot tub, Panoramic views.
Absolutely stunning home in a stunning location. Fantastic for a large family of different ages. Will absolutely book again. Thank you!

Devon Garden B & B
Richard and Mo were great hosts and provided us with all the information required to meet our expectations. Richard met us on arrival and it was lovely to have the basics for breakfast provided for each morning, which was an added surprise and very welcomed. This facility was perfect for my wife as she has mobility issues, and the Airbnb is all on one level with walk-in shower, so made moving around was made so much easier. We would highly recommend staying here, and will look to rebook for our next visit to Devon.

Briar fishermans Cottage and garden by the coast
Briar cottage is the perfect spot for a family holiday. The cottage feels very comfortable and is decorated beautifully. Boscastle is a great place to visit and explore the stunning coastline.

Stunning views from family home
Really spacious place, fantastic for family get togethers. Communication was great and a few things were really well accommodated to ensure we had the best stay over Christmas. Lovely views and clean rooms. Really easy walks to coast and lovely seaside/cliff walks.

Cheerful 6 bedroom property with cinema room.
What a fabulous house for a family break! So much space that for the 11 of us to spread out in,we never felt over crowded. The house was very well equipped,we could all comfortably sit down to eat. The garden was very safe for the children to run around in and it was such a quiet area. David was very responsive to any query I had. I think we could be back next year!

The Great Western - lovely 2 bed apt in hbr bowl
We had a lovely stay, the place was clean and was as described. Check in was easy and Fergus let you check in early and late as no one else was booked in. You are staying in the town so no need for a car, lots to do in the area. Over all great place and would return

Hazel Lodge 2 bedroom/2 bathroom
We were so lucky to find this at such short notice. Perfect location. (Turns out I came here 40 years ago with my parents). Very quiet and safe. Great for families and easy access to all the great beaches on the north coast. The lodge was virtually brand new and has everything you need for self catering. Everyone on the site was friendly. Nice play area and walks around the site especially with a toddler in tow. Highly recommend and we’ve already talked about coming back….. if they’ll have us. 😬

Stunning barn conversion with sea view and hot tub
We had an absolute fantastic stay at Nicola's place. We can highly recommend this most relaxing and peaceful place in stunning Cornwall. Nicola is a great host and has made us feel very welcome. She has created an absolute wonderful home away from home with everything you wish for. Thank you so much for having us. Hope to come back some time soon.

Couple's Cosy Cottage
Rebecca is a wonderful host, we struggled to find it as the postcode doesn't take you exactly there. I rang Rebecca and she directed us straight there, so helpful and so friendly. The cottage was so clean and welcoming. We took our pug and our cat and both enjoyed themselves. The log burner was a treat and the bedroom upstairs really nice. We would definitely recommend this cottage and would return.

Romantic Oceanside cliff top retreat 2 beds.
We had a wonderful stay—this place is a gem. The view over the sea is absolutely stunning, with sunsets that felt like something out of a painting. Access to the beach made it ideal for our family of three (plus one very happy dog). Peaceful, comfortable, and the perfect setting to properly switch off and recharge.

Apartment, Sea Views & Terrace on Waters Edge
A beautiful location with stunning views from the property - we didn't want to close the curtains! Lovely and spacious with two bathrooms. There were 4 of us staying but there's ample space for 6 guests. There is a nice veranda to have a cup of tea in the sun and watch the boats come and go in the harbour. Polruan is a pretty village overlooking the river Fowey, and Fowey across the water, is also great for a day out looking around the shops or taking a walk to St Catherine's Point where there is a lovely little beach and a walk up to the castle. The ferry was frequent and very convenient to use to get across to Fowey. We hired a self drive motorboat to explore the river which was a great afternoon out. Parking is about a 10 min walk away at the top of the village, so be aware of the climb back up the hill to the car at the end of your stay! A very enjoyable stay in a quiet and beautiful setting.

Luxury 4 bedroom seaside house
Lovely, spacious, and modern property. Plenty of choice for outside seating too. exceeded expectations, more than matched the photos provided. Only advice I will give, which is not anything negative about the Property is be mindful if you have guests who aren't particularly mobile as there are steps up to the property and the driveway is up a fairly steep hill. We did also struggle to get a taxi, as didn't really seem to be all that often or available in this location from what we found and Uber just said it would be a very long wait. The Property itself was fantastic though, plenty of space for all of us. Myself, My Husband, My Sister, her Partner and children plus My Dad came for the weekend & there were three spacious double rooms, two with en suites and then the two singles in another room for My Niece and Nephew, so absolutely perfect for what we needed. Overall, very happy with this property & our Host was very friendly and super quick to reply to any questions. Would stay again!
