Had a very nice stay, the location is great as its central to alot of tourist hotspots and local shops and pubs. The only negatives we found is that The cottage has all the amenities needed as well as a large kitchen. The cottage is overlooked by a facing neighbour. Overall nice stay.

The kitchen is bright and beautiful, whereas the rooms in the old building are significantly darker than shown in the pictures. Although it was summer, it was difficult to ventilate . Anyone who is sensitive to odors will quickly notice. The main bathroom (not shown in the pictures) has no windows which means that no air circulation is taking placeRead more. In St. Day you will hardly find other tourists - no typcial tourist location. Hide

We really enjoyed our holiday in Cornwall, the house is very attractive and comfortable - the kitchen in particular is a really beautiful space with lots of sunshine throughout the day. The location is great for visiting attractions in all directions as there's lots to do within a 45min radius (though perhaps less on your doorstep). Decor is a littRead morele rough around the edges in places. If you have a big car then you will likely struggle with the driveway as it's very narrow. Hide

Some place else lived up to its name, tucked away down a lane I'm a private oasis where the only sounds and sights are the birds in the garden. Perfectly situated for exploring, a truly stunning kitchen - we couldn't have been more relaxed. So relaxed in fact that we didn't want to leave.
