Helman Tor Cottages

Lanivet 2.2 miles. This delightful collection of four individual barn conversions are situated at the foot of the historic Helman Tor on the owner's working farm, surrounded by glorious countryside within the Helman Tor nature reserve, one of the wildlife gems of Cornwall. Located near the village of Lanivet, well known as being the centre point of Cornwall, means that access to anywhere in the county is within easy reach. A haven for walkers with many choices direct from the door you really do get a feeling of being away from it all yet you are close by to many leading attractions and the fishing ports and villages that Cornwall is so well known for. The beautiful historical harbour town of Fowey is only 10 miles away and the world-famous Eden Project only 7 miles from the cottages. The Saints Way, a well signed, favourite trail for walkers in the county passes right by Helman Tor on its route across Cornwall from Padstow on the north coast to Fowey on the south. Cyclists are also well catered for with the cycle routes connecting to the wonderful Camel Trail again giving access to Padstow. The cottages can be rented individually or as a group all offering great holidays in a superb location.

“It’s perfect for couples and with 360 degrees of breathtaking scenery it makes for a relaxing stay.”

But saying that it’s still so easy to get to other parts of Cornwall. It’s slightly dated and I think my laptop is bigger than the tv but who cares it’s a a holiday cottage. The facilities included laundry room and recycling facilities were a nice surprise too if you need them. Definitely would go back as soon as I can.

“This was so far out from everywhere you could not even have an evening stroll, the entrance to the cottage was a mile long on a very narrow lane with pot holes everywhere,, which did not do the car any good, The accommodation was clean but very dated, the beds were comfortable , but 1 bedroom was a very tight squeeze, as the foot of both beds were almost touching the cupboards , which made it almost impossible to get into them for your cloths, The television in the lounge area was so small myself with failing eyesight could not see it only listen to it.”

. i dont think it was any bigger than 24 inch of which i took a picture of to show the family and they have not stopped laughing at it yet ,,

“Kestrel Corner is a clean and comfortable cottage in a beautiful location.”

I have never stayed anywhere that is so quiet. No traffic noise and very little bird song to wake you in the morning. It was useful to have access to a washing machine and a dryer? However,, there are some negative things that future customers need to be aware of. The roads to the cottage are extremely narrow. Approximately the last two miles are single track with very few passing places and the last section has lots of big potholes. Although the cottage is clean, it is very damp. Every cupboard smells damp. All our clothes felt damp after the first two days. The third issue is the lack of water pressure - especially from the hot tap. Filling a bowl to wash the dishes took ages. The shower is not fit for purpose.

“Could be hard to find but directions update by Kevin (Manager) helped.”

It is on a working farm, so very rural but wild life a pleasure to watch. Cottage was really nice. WiFi adequate for email and messages but not for streaming but plenty to see and do anyway. Water was fine (bore hole) but shower very slow. Other than that, a very enjoyable holiday. The people we met were very friendly and those we needed to contact, very helpful. Thanks for a lovely, albeit wet, holiday. So much to do in Cornwall and its all on your doorstep.

“Booking fees are expensive over the top from Sykes ...”

Booking fees are expensive over the top from Sykes Kestrel corner is fabulous little cottage a little dated but very comfortable Facilities and heating are really good The only little thing that lets it down is bathroom and shower Adding a inline pump or separate shower is an easy fix to increase water pressure to shower head I will return when I am required to work in the area again

“Very nice, clean cottage.”

Well equipped, comfy and very peaceful. It is in the middle of nowhere and at night there is no noise, no light pollution and sleep comes easy. However, if you don't like narrow (and I mean narrow) country lanes, then drive clear of this cottage. The only pain really is the Wi-Fi. What reception and speed I could receive was very poor (0.09 megs). I would recommend this cottage, if you don't mind narrow lanes and don't need Wi-Fi, this could be just right for you. Very nice friendly people made us feel welcome.
