The property was lovely, clean and well equipped. Mr Murphy was there if needed but by no means intrusive.

“Very comfortable, home from home, ...”

Very comfortable, home from home, in the pretty fishing village of Mevagissey. Just a short (steep) walk down to the harbour. Lovely meal had at The Salamander. Take the ferry to Fowey, we saw porpoises both there and back! Visit the Lost Gardens of Heligan and walk along the left-handside of the coast and down 200 steps to the most beautiful secluded cove. Thank you so much for the bottle of wine and biscuits ...tea coffee milk etc. Just the perfect little base..lovely peaceful garden too.

“Our hosts were very welcoming, we ...”

Our hosts were very welcoming, we felt very comfortable at our temporary home. The layout is perfect for a family or two couples travelling together. Just the right distance from the busy village and parking on the property was very convenient. We would recommend this holiday cottage without reservation.

“A really nice holiday home in a ...”

A really nice holiday home in a quiet location - spacious and clean with a nice little sitting out area through the patio doors with views over the fields. Robin, the owner, was really pleasant and helpful. Mevagissey is a really nice Cornish fishing village with plenty of eateries to suit all tastes and a couple of good pubs. The only downside of getting there from Nectan is the extremely steep hill (I think Robin's 100 yards from the village is more than a little optimistic!!!), however, we managed it on a number of occasions but if you are older or have small children I would suggest you think carefully before booking. That said, if you want somewhere to stay in Cornwall that has a parking space you have a price to pay!! All things considered, it was a lovely holiday home and we had a great stay.

Friendly and helpful landlord. Very pleasant cottage. The wood burner helped keep the place cosy with the weather we had the week we stayed.

“Nectan is by far the most ...”

Nectan is by far the most comfortable, spacious and well equipped cottage we have stayed in. The owners, who live next door, are extremely friendly and knowledgable about the local area. A delightful base for our holiday and well worth the climb back up the hill from harbour and shops

“Absolutely fabulous cottage”

Absolutely fabulous cottage love it so much that this is our third year in going back. The place itself is cleaned to a very high standard and has everything you need.There are two spacious bedrooms both with having ensuites. The open plan living/kitchen area is quite spacious and can easily accommodated four of us. The garden is great sunny all day and is also secure which was good to know as we had a little dog . The owners themselves are fabulous hosts very welcoming and are always around if there is a problem or you need anything.Overall this is a fantastic property and place hope to go back next year even though we wish we could stay forever

“Really nice and calm feeling when ...”

Really nice and calm feeling when you first walk in and location was great, although the hill to and from the town / harbour is short and steep. Very clean. Would recommend.

“Fantastic holiday cottage - highly recommended!”

Extremely comfortable, flexible accommodation (two good-sized double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms) which was perfect for our stay with my elderly parents. The cottage was well-stocked, with everything we needed - we really appreciated the milk, wine, biscuits, upon arrival! The hosts were very welcoming - they were there if we had any questions but otherwise were very quiet and left us to enjoy our holiday. The garden was ideal for my parent's dog - very secure so we could leave her outside all evening whilst we watched her from the living room. We can't recommend enough and we will definitely be returning!

The accommodation was clean and comfortable and well laid out. Ideal for one or two couples or a small family.

“The cottage was very comfortable ...”

The cottage was very comfortable and very warm. The enclosed garden was excellent for our dog with walks nearby. The harbour was just a five minute walk down the hill, but longer coming up. Very steep hill! And when we arrived it was lovely to be provided with milk, bread butter, wine, tea & coffee. All in all a very lovely and relaxing holiday with fantastic weather for November.
