  • "I love Tom, Dick and Harry cottages."

    I think my family (or my extended family) have all stayed in at least one of the cottages over the years. This was our 3rd stay at Harry and as always, we loved it. It’s beautiful and spacious, offering plenty of space in the open floor plan to spread out and relax. The bedrooms downstairs are comfortable and have access to a lovely back lawn with pretty border gardens and outdoor seating. Blisland is a picture book perfect little village with its popular pub, leafy village green, beautiful church and wonderful little grocery that has the essentials. We will continue to return to this beautiful spot.

  • "Stunning property in beautiful setting, house was well maintained, estate managers and owner were both welcoming and informative."

    Perfect base to visit Cornwall and experience a slice of history. Will definitely use as Cornwall base again.

    Glad you enjoyed your stay. Harry has been completely refurbished in the last couple of years, including new kitchen appliances. Next time you should visit the Victorian water garden which we are restoring with its grotto, secret tunnel and wildlife pond. Property Owner

  • "Absolutely lovely place to stay, near to Tintagel Castle, Jamaica Inn, Bodmin Moor, Padstow, Looe, Truro, Harry’s cottage was a delight to stay in good communication, about your upcoming stay, lovely and clean lovely views, with a pub in walking distance, what is there not to like."

    Would definitely recommend.

  • "The property was excellent, and fitted our needs perfectly."

    Very comfortable and we made good use of the log burner due to the cold weather. Very minor point, the crockery was a little lacking, ie no cereal bowls,also could possibly do with more wine and drinks glasses. Overall we had a great few days here.

    Glad you had a good visit, and thank you for your comments. Harry has been completely refurbished in the last couple of years. We will add more cereal bowls and check the number of glasses. Property Owner

  • "Despite the weather we had a lovely stay in Harry."

    3rd time so familiar with everything. Already booked again for next year. Missed Clare the housekeeper this time. Didnt get to meet new people but no issues so we were able to have the place totally to ourselves for the week. Didnt even need to share the laundry as we had the cottage next door!

  • "We've stayed at Harry at least five times, and every year it gets better and better, with new features added for the comfort of visitors."

    Our group was aged from 34 to 84 and we all had a very happy time in Harry. It's such a comfortable, clean and welcoming place to stay and at the end of a busy day exploring the area it was always a joy to get 'home'. Blisland lives up to its name. Leaving Harry was a wrench, but I know we'll be back.

  • "We had a lovely stay at Harry and will happily return to stay at one of the three cottages in the future."

    Perfectly situated for a very quiet, peaceful holiday. The only sounds were sheep bleating and birds singing - utter bliss! Harry was very clean and comfortable and provided just what we needed. The caretakers, Fiona and Steve, were most friendly and helpful. We fell in love with Blisland itself, a truly unspoilt English village. The pub was very welcoming and does a delicious home cooked Sunday lunch and the local shop and cafe was well stocked and provided a great coffee after a local walk. The only constructive criticism would be that there should be at least one tray in the kitchen so that food and drink can be safely carried downstairs in Harry and out to the table in the back garden. Also the extractor fans did not seem to be working in the bathrooms despite locating the power switches? Perhaps there was a reason for this? Overall it was a wonderful holiday in a lovely cottage.

    Thanks for your feedback. Glad you enjoyed your stay and that you were comfortable. Harry has been fully refurbished, including new new kitchen equipment. Not quite sure where tray has gone, but we will replace. We already have a plan to upgrade the ventilation system, but it involves lifting floorboards upstairs, which we may not be able to do until later in the year. Property Owner

    And we were really impressed by the improvements that have been made to the sleeping quarters and bathrooms - the whole building is really first class. (Huge apologies for not removing the bed linen before we left - we were in a rush but I'm so sorry and hadn't read your reminder email!).

    Gorgeous barn, light and spacious upstairs. Cosy and comfortable downstairs. Really lovely grounds to explore and easy walks into the village. Clare the housekeeper couldn't be more friendly and informative. Maybe take a tray with you, just for transporting drinks/plates downstairs for alfresco times!

About the location

BLISLAND

Bodmin 5.7 miles; Wadebridge 8.4 miles; Polzeath 13.2 miles; Tintagel 13.8 miles; Padstow 16 miles; Fowey 17.2 miles.

Situated under the western edge of granite-bound Bodmin Moor, the village of Blisland retains its age old character and is the only village in Cornwall to have a village green with trees. Around the green, cluster old houses and cottages, as well as the famous, award-winning Blisland Inn. The village is located less than three miles from the A30, and so provides an ideal central location for touring Cornwall. Nearby, Poley’s Bridge marks the beginning of the Camel Trail, a 17-mile long route, which follows a long disused old steam engine railway line to Padstow. The route is completely traffic-free and perfect for walkers and cyclists. You can even explore the trail on horseback and a purpose-built hide has been constructed between Wadebridge and Padstow, so even birdwatchers are catered for! Pull on your walking boots and explore Bodmin Moor, or venture to the coast with your buckets and spades and enjoy a day on one of the many beautiful beaches that stretch along Cornwall’s northern coastline. A fabulous part of the country for all!

Note: No pets between 20th July and 31st August.
