The location of the property is great - its a short drive to Port Isaac, as well as slightly further to Tintagel, Padstow & Trebarwith Strand. The farm shop 1/2 a mile away is a must - great for kids and fab food too! The cottage itself has a lovely open plan living/dining/kitchen space so its very sociable. The cottage has lots of games and kids Read moretoys which we really appreciated. Large garden which is great for the dog and we were lucky to have amazing September weather to enjoy it. The bedrooms had everything you needed and beds were very comfy. Do make sure you read about the Jack & Jill bathroom to get to the third bedroom - its fine but just something worth considering if you dont want to walk through someone elses bedroom. Overall the property is nice and worked well for us for a week. Location is a real highlight. Hide
