"Second time we have been to the farmhouse."
Mrs North very helpful and the property is very well equipped and warm. Our teenage girls love it here and have asked to return.
Lots of lovely walks and seals to be seen from the cliffs.
Places we enjoyed eating were Geevor cafe, north inn, Queens at Bottalack and the front room.in penzance.
The shop that's a small walk is well stocked and welcoming and we brought Christmas gifts at pendeen pottery.
We hope to return next year.

"Very peaceful and quiet."
However, a sign to guide to the actual property would be welcome as it is a farm of scattered building and it was hard to find someone to give us direction to the cottage. Also we found surprising that there was not a single book, not a single DVD (Blue Ray only) available for entertainment. There was not even a Visitors Book to leave a comment. Theses things have been commonly found wherever we have stayed. So beware, take ALL your entertainment with you (we could not fathom how to use the TV as no instructions available and it was Blue Ray only) because if the weather turns bad there is little to do in the area. But if weather is good the walks are superb and the sunsets by the lighthouse spectacular.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our week-long stay."
The Old Farmhouse is a delight - the building is full of character. It was impeccably clean and well-kept.
It's in an idea location for exploring the St Just and Penzance areas, has a sea view, and is close to the Botallack and Geevor mines, for Poldark fans, and a reasonable walking distance from the North Inn and village shop - and from Pendeen lighthouse, in the other direction.
We want to stay again - and have no hesitation in wholeheartedly recommending it to others.

"We was very happy with the cottage it was very relaxing, well kept, with beautiful scenery all around."
The shops weren’t too far and you could walk to them if you wanted to. We was given lots of information about the local area and what you can do around the area. Wasn’t far from a lovely viewing point to watch the sun set and there are lots of attractions, beaches and things to do near by like Senna cove, st Ives, Lands End. We definitely recommend zooming in on your map so all the little coves come up as there are some lovely little gems to find.
The cottage and are we highly recommend and plan on returning ourselves.

"The farmhouse was perfect although we were only staying 5 days."
Everything was provided, even milk, tea and biscuits. The location was great for us and very quiet but it was still easy to reach the touristy spots. Mrs North came to welcome us after we arrived. We would definitely stay again if we get that far west in future. Thanks.

Lots of nice details and the owners are very friendly. It's located near the coast with a beautiful view! It's a bit cold inside, so we had to turn on all facilities to heat it up every day. But still very cold. Such a lovely place to stay.

"The Farmhouse is perfectly positioned just a stone's throw from the Coast Path with a beautiful walk from the back of the property, across the fields , and down to the beach."
It's comfortable, warm (thanks to the storage heater system), and fully equipped with everything you might need for your stay.
If you run out of anything - bread, milk, and the like, the local Spar mini supermarket is a very pleasant ten minute walk away, or a two minute drive.
Can't fault it to be honest!

She answered our emails quickly and efficiently. She did everything she could to ensure we had a comfortable stay.
The cottage is set in a very beautiful location and we really enjoyed the coastal walk across the fields to the local Cove. Pendeen and the local area has a good range of pubs and is ideal for anyone wanting to escape the hustle and bustle of the main towns. It's a tranquil place which is awe inspiring and thought provoking. A beautiful place to unwind and reflect after a stressful year.
Thank you Ann.

"We've been coming to SW Cornwall for many years now and this our best experience by far."
More spacious that the photos give it credit for. Tastefully decorated. Beautiful sunsets over the fields and a glistening sea in the distance through the kitchen window. Place to park right outside the front gate. Superb white goods, especially the oven and a useful separate mini-freezer. Overnight water heater just enough for 2 full baths so fine as long as it's managed (and it has a booster). Separate electric little power shower with non stop hot water. Pretty good internet bearing in very rural location - could stream from two devices simultaneously - beyond that reception started to struggle. An office with a desk and an armchair was a nice surprise. Decent small Spar about half a mile away with a free car park opposite. Footpath one way, road then footpath the other to Portheras Cove, a beautiful beach that is off the beaten track so not busy (almost like a private beach) and great for paddling, sunbathing and rock pooling but probably not swimming. Ann the owner on hand for help but respectful, charming and discreet. We have already booked again for 2021. Recommended.

"Had a lovely time in the farmhouse."
Both the front downstairs windows leaked when it rained and the floor in front of kitchen window was like a pond after heavy rain. Just don’t put anything on the floor as it will be ruined as we found out after arriving late Sunday night and just leaving everything on the floor till we were able to unpack ob Monday only to find out all the bags, my handbag and my daughters school bag which she had taken so she could revise for her exams all ended up very wet. Tin opener didn’t work abd the toaster burned the toast. No hairdryer in my he farmhouse so had to use the wall heater in the bathroom. Everything else was lovely.
