  • "We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Lavender Cottage!"

    The cottage was well finished and thoughtfully designed, with ample space for us and everything we needed was there, including for our little pooch who had all his needs accommodated for also! Louise was brilliant and nothing was too much to ask. Learning the story behind Lavender Cottage and meeting the animals was super lovely also! The location is ideal for visiting the many beautiful spots around Cornwall. We loved our time staying here and will be sure to visit again in the future :)

    Hey Sam, Tom and of course the lovely Cooper thank you for a lovely review it means a lot, look forward to seeing you all again soon, Louise Property Owner
