    Spotless. Very comfortable. Dog was welcome too with special treats for him as well as a lovely welcome pack for us. Communication with the owners was excellent.

    Cottage is well equipped with absolutely everything needed for both yourselves and your pooch. The location is central for an easy drive to explore all areas of Cornwall. Alison the owner was lovely, on hand but not intrusive and the welcome package was a fabulous bonus. Highly recommend this place and we will definitely be back.

  • "This property is in an excellent location to explore both the north and south coast of Cornwall and has a good pub next door."

    It has been tastefully renovated and decorated. The kitchen has a good selection of utensils etc. The lounge is a decent size for 4 people. The shower is excellent and there's plenty of hot water. A few points: we needed to buy our own consumables as these are not provided (toilet paper, kitchen roll, kitchen sponge, dishwasher tabs). There is a lovely little garden which is a real suntrap. It has a beer garden-style bench but chairs to sit out on would be nice. Lastly, though this is a matter of taste, we found the beds are soft and bouncy. Overall, I would recommend this property, its a lovely place and fantastic location.

    Hello Clare Thank you for your lovely review. Really sorry to hear I hadn't pop all the consumables items in. I normally do, just an oversight. Guest have asked for items if they do run out! So pleased enjoyed your stay at camellia Cottage. Hope to see you again in the near future. Alison Property Owner

  • "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Camellia Cottage and can't fault it in any way."

    The cottage was beautifully appointed with everything you could need, very clean and well ordered and the welcome cream tea most appreciated. Our hosts, James and Alison were most helpful and gave us excellent advice. The cottage is ideally positioned to explore Cornwall and we enjoyed visiting numerous little villages during our week away. We'd avoid Padstow and Looe as both very busy but elsewhere was lovely, particularly the NT beach at Godrevy point, an amazing beach and uncrowded, a highlight of our trip (helped by the weather that day!). The walk at Gribbin Head locally was excellent, thanks James for the advice. We've already recommended the cottage to friends and wouldn't hesitate to do so again. Thanks once more to James and Alison for a lovely mini-break.

    Despite the weather, we had a fantastic stay. It was lovely to arrive to fresh scones, clotted cream, jam and prosecco. The heating was also already on, making it nice and cosy. We were made to feel really welcome and we felt comfortable and relaxed throughout our stay. The yard was secure for our dog, Harry, to play in and the cottage was very clean throughout. We loved looking through the photo album about how you had both put do much time into renovating the property over the last 6 years or so and it truly shows in how well it is presented. We'll definitely look at booking to come back in the future. It's now our favourite Cornish holiday home.

    We found it extremely clean and comfortable. Lovely welcome gift of cream tea and bubbly and tasty treats for our dog. We chose it mainly because the garden was safe for the dog but we were delighted to find a public footpath next door for convenient comfort walks in the morning before going out for the day. The pub next door was so convenient for evening meals and the food was delicious. We had a lovely week visiting lots of beaches and walking some of the coastal path. Would definitely recommend it to friends and plan to revisit at some time in the future.

  • "Camellia Cottage was amazing."

    Off road parking is a big plus (plenty big enough for our full size people carrier - as others have said, reversing in is best). Beautiful enclosed cottage garden was great for the dog (and drying washing). There was even a fire pit and bbq. Inside was spotless, beautifully and tastefully decorated and comprehensively equipped to a high standard. We wanted for nothing. Location was perfect for exploring Cornwall. Very close to the Eden Project, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and Mevagissey, but even Lands End was only 90 minutes away. One thing that we loved was the silence at night. Lanlivery is a beautiful haven of tranquility when Cornwall is basically full. The Crown Inn next door serves good food (best to book), two farm shops within a mile sell local ingredients and Asda and Tesco in St Austell are 15 minutes away. Being Cornwall, Google Maps may well send you down some challenging narrow roads. The best way in is down the turning signposted for the Crown Inn. As the Colwith Farm Shop is on this junction, we navigated to there rather than the property, which worked well. And finally, James and Alison were great hosts incredibly nice and helpful. And they are locals, which means a lot these days. We wish them all the very best with their venture, and thank them for a great couple of weeks. A definite recommendation....

  • "Camellia Cottage is a beautiful well equipped cottage with a lovely secure garden for the dog."

    We appreciated the cream tea & prosecco which welcomed us on arrival and Barney enjoyed his treats. Alison & James were very friendly and helpful. The TV reception is not good but James put us on the right track explaining to use the apps and then we had no problems. I was worried about parking after reading a previous review. We have a large car and had no problems at all. There is plenty of room for parking but it is easier to reverse in rather than try to reverse out. The bed was so comfortable and we both slept well. The cottage is in an ideal situation to explore Cornwall. The Crown Inn next door is dog friendly and we enjoyed our evening meals there. The Kings Arms in Luxulyan PL30 5EF just 2 miles away is also dog friendly and we would highly recommend the steak & ale pie. We would recommend this beautiful cottage and wish Alison & James all the very best with this venture.

    Comfortable beds in both rooms, lovely private garden. Owners always helpful and friendly. Unfortunately, we found parking very difficult and somewhat dangerous as entrance was narrow and just off of a bad bend ie if you reversed in, it was dangerous and if you reversed out the same applies. It is unfortunate that this means that we will not be returning to this property and it somewhat took the shine off of our stay.

  • "We have just spent an idyllic week in Camellia cottage where every need was catered for."

    Our main requirements was for an enclosed garden for our dog (tick) and a walk in shower for our daughter with mobility issues. (There is a step onto the shower tray which she could cope with). The cottage is in a beautiful and tranquil location with good access to the main A roads, once you learn to ignore your sat nav and know which country lanes to avoid. There's a pub next door with friendly staff and good food. We were never disturbed by any noise though. And for anyone wondering what else you need to take, I felt the description on Sykes website vastly undersold the facilities. Kitchen - oven, fridge and freezer, dishwasher, microwave, kettle, tassimo, coffee french press, cupboards full of all the cutlery, crockery, pots and pans you could need. But also provided are all the basics to get you started, coffee, tea bags, salt and pepper, milk, washing up liquid, hand soap, pot and hand towels. It was all the additional touches like the treats for the dog, prosecco and scones with jam and cream, apples in the fruit bowl which were particularly thoughtful. There was a huge supply of DVDs, not to mention Netflix and Amazon Prime. There was a vast supply of games for both indoors and out. A picnic table and BBQ in the well tended garden, and a washing line. The heating was only needed briefly a couple of times and it quickly and efficiently warmed the house within minutes so I can imagine how cosy it would be in cooler months. There were plenty of beautifully fluffy towels, pillows and bedding and again basics like soap and toilet rolls. There was even an assortment of dog bowls, a towel, poo bags and a dog bed. But also hair dryer, iron, vacuum plus more besides. I appreciate it's impossible for the advert to state all the above and perhaps there are some owners that don't focus on the details to the same extent, but I felt this would be useful to know. So if you're planning a trip I would definitely recommend this property which has been well thought through, and is tended with lots of love, care and attention to detail.

As the evening draws to a close, venture up the staircase to drift off to sleep within one of the well-presented bedrooms, comprising of a double bedroom and a twin bedroom.
