“Yes, please inform your customer that in that region the mobile net is very rare and that the accomodation hasn´t got any WiFi possibilities.”

The owner of the accommodation are very friendly and everybody like dogs. You can do a lots of walking. With a better mobile net it would be possible to make long walks and have the local maps online.
Ms Plumb August 2019

“Very lovely flat in a beautiful and peaceful location: little hamlet about 1/4 mile from the village which overlooks rolling hills and a beach.”

10 minute walk through woodland to the beach. Mrs and Mr Retallack are the nicest hosts: very friendly and helpful, but give you your own space if wanted. The flat is spotless and fitted with oven and hob, fridge, freezer, microwave, and all the utensils and crockery you could need; I believe a washing machine is in the summer house but we didn't need to use one so can't be sure. It is worth noting that there is no phone signal in the vicinity (expected) so you have to go up the road for phone calls or Sat Nav useage, but there is also no WiFi available -- make sure you do all your travel planning in advance! Overall, a very lovely holiday and would not hesitate to return.

“Lovely location, cosy apartment and owners very friendly and lovely.”
Mr Aarons May 2019

“Good place to stay to chill as no signal so no mobile or internet (took awhile to adjust).”

Could have better signage at lane entrance as Corinne eventually had to stand in the street to guide us. Nice welcome with cream tea scones. Loved being able to BBQ as being in a 1st floor maisonette we cannot do that at home.
Mrs Tatum September 2018

“We had a fantastic time and the weather was good, the Crows Nest was very relaxing, peaceful, and the scenery was breath taking.”

. couldn't wish for more.
Mr Walker September 2018

“This tiny flat was very well equipped and comfortable, and we were made so very welcome by the owners, overall we thought it was good value for money.”

The setting is perfect, glorious views out to sea from the kitchen windows and the garden. Recommended!
Mr Hall September 2018

“Fantastic location, views and very peaceful.”

Owners live next door and left us to ourselves, but we're available if we needed them. A few more steps to the property than given in the listing, so isn't quite as suitable for people with limited mobility. Interior was cleaned to an excellent standard, it was a little dated in appearance. Well equipped, but be warned there is no mobile phone signal, or internet, so be prepared to be off the grid except while out and about. Short walk to nearest beach and cove, which again is not suitable for people with limited mobility. Spotted a seal close to the shore in the cove, so that was a bonus.
Mr Doswell August 2018

“From initial search to final day of our stay I have found the experience excellent.”

Booking our holiday cottage was very easy and stress free...the follow up email reminders and the app are brilliant. Our stay at Crows Nest was lovely from start to finish. Our hosts were so friendly and welcoming. The accomodation is very peaceful and secluded with stunning views and easy access to the beach and village.it is in the perfect location to explore Cornwall and the surrounding penninsula is stunning, so you can stay local and still access some amazing spots...being on the coastal path is a real advantage if you want to walk everywhere. Crows Nest has everything you could need and was cosy and comfortable. The owners are truly lovely people. It was clean and ready upon arrival and the cream tea, flowers and welcome card were lovely touches. The bed was very comfy and the addition of the snug was ideal, especially after a busy day exploring. The addition of two tvs and dvd players came in handy once or twice when the weather was poor. There was even a washing machine in the summer house that we used. I would agree with a previous reviewer that the fridge freezer is noisy but it is a minor negative to an otherwise lovely place. Our 18 week old beagle pup loved the beautiful and safe garden. Being a beagle we rarely let her off the lead away from home but the space was perfect and extremely safe. She had a ball and the bowl of doggy biscuits upon arrival was another special touch. Highly recommended and excellent value for money.

“A perfect place to relax and unwind with stunning views.”

No WiFi or phone signal so really allows you to switch off.
Mr Newton July 2018

“A lovely holiday cottage.”

The owners were very friendly and welcoming, and we were greeted with a cream tea, flowers, and a welcome card. We had full use of the garden area, decking (with a sea view) and summerhouse. Inside was comfortable, with an added bonus of a small snug lounge. Close by, are sheep (very funny to hear), cows, and chickens (with a cockerel that gets up very early, so make sure you've closed the windows before bedtime, lol) There is no wi-fi here and not much of a phone signal, so if you want to get away from it all, this is the place to be ! (There is only one minor thing I would change, and that would be the fridge/freezer, as it was quite noisy). We had perfect weather for our holiday which made it all so much more enjoyable. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone. Thanks again for letting us stay in your lovely "Crow's Nest".
Mrs Gynn June 2018

“The owners Corrine and Ed where so lovely, we felt like we had known them for years.”

The accommodation was excellent, and the view was amazing. If you want to get away for peace and quiet then you will find it hard to better the Crows nest. It is idyllic and homely, The garden is lovey, a typical country garden which is a credit to Corrine & Ed. We will definitely be going again, and next time it will be for 2 weeks. We highly recommend it.
Mr Mostenski June 2018

“Amazing cottage the owner was very helpful and friendly.”

Was an ideal place to stay to explore Cornwall, definitely recommend this place to anyone.
Mr Young May 2018

“The peace and quiet and views of fields and the sea, if you want to get away from it all this is it, ok no wifi and signal of mobile not too good but a 15 minute walk into the village will see you right.”

In the village is a store where you can get most things or a trip into Helston for Sainsburys, a paper shop, post office and two pubs which serve food and dogs are welcomed in and outside in the garden, we enjoyed it very much and hoping to go back next year.

About the location

ST KEVERNE

Helston 12 miles.

On the eastern side of The Lizard Peninsula, the pretty village of St Keverne, lying just 1.25 miles inland, is the focal point for this area, with its village pubs and shops surrounding the village square, and an impressive church spire, at one time used to guide the Cornish fishermen home. From St Keverne, you can easily explore the natural and spectacular beauty of the Lizard Peninsula by car, bicycle or on foot. You will find walled fishing harbours, tiny secret coves, sandy bays and dramatic clifftop walks along the South West Coastal path. Just north is the Helford River, a yachtsman's dream and home to Frenchman's Creek, and picturesque Helford village. A short walk takes you to Roskilly’s Farm, where you can tuck in to ice cream to die for. Further afield, visit Falmouth, with one of the world's largest natural harbours, Pendennis Castle built by Henry VIII, and of course you cannot miss out on a trip to The National Maritime Museum.
