"Had a week in this property in June this year."
The area is perfect, quiet and when you did meet a local they were very friendly. The issues we had were, the parking space is very small, the washer/dryer did not dry our clothes, a clothes line or airer would be a good addition (especially with the energy prices), the photos are out of date as the living room has a very dark grey wall, this makes the room very dark and cold, and there is no rug, the floor is very cold. I appreciate the cottage is old, we had to buy logs as even in June the living room/kitchen was freezing. Overall the property is well equipped, we enjoyed our stay and it was an ideal location.

""Small but very well formed!"
" Very well equipped and furnished,I think a mention about size of the parking space would be a good idea, as its very limited and the lane is narrow,
Great location for exploring, quiet, and tranquil.
A lovely stay thank-you.

"We thoughly enjoyed our week in the cottage."
It is in a lovely quiet rural hamlet but within easy driving distance of many popular locations and the A30 and A39. The property is very clean, well equipped and comfortable. The spiral staircase is a bit tight but otherwise no problems.
Nearby St Columb Major has some useful shops.
An excellent place to stay.

"Great cottage in a very small quiet hamlet."
Good base to visit any of beaches between Padstow and Newquay or further afield. Cob cottage is very comfortable and cosy with lovely log burner and is very well equipped. At night it was lovely to be able to see the stars i through the velux window. Would visit again.

"It was a lovely location and the cottage was well equipped."
The disappointing things where that we couldn’t let our dog straight out into the garden, because it’s separated from the house by a small communicable footpath and open to the lane directly, so our pet had to be on a lead to guide him to the garden at all times.
But most importantly was the cleanliness of the property,, the shower grout was awful being brown stained from lime scale especially around the bottom of the tray and the bottom parts of the tiles.
There was dust everywhere, although I know dust can collect it was actually terrible on the light fittings and there where momentous from previous tenants in the form of odds sock and childs painted stone in the main bedroom which I found getting into bed, it was partially under the bed. There are stained walls in the front room that look like damp also.
We did find out that the spiral staircase as charming as it is,, is very difficult to take your cases up and my poor husband being 6,3 hit his head constantly.
Overall we did enjoy our stay, but did feel let down by mainly the cleanliness.

"The cottage is lovely and very well equipped."
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Location excellent for visiting the north coast. The only concern I would have is that the circular staircase is steep and not very wide. My husband and myself are of relatively slim build and it was not a problem but larger person may struggle with the stairs.

"Absolutely superb cottage for the 2 of us, great BBQ / terrace area at the back."
The provision of milk, scones jam and Cornish cream, together with coffee pods etc on arrival is a very welcome gesture.
Quiet rural location, but beware of the noisy cockerel which seemingly gets vocal from 3am! Care needed on the feature circular staircase and the shower room could do with a shelf over the sink, but otherwise all areas beautifully modernised and thoughtfully colour coordinated.
The nearby village of St Columb Major has a very useful Co-op, excellent Chinese takeaway and the Ring-O-Bells pub does exceptionally good food, as does the Falcon Inn in nearby St Mawgan.

"Lovely cottage ideal for couples in a quiet hamlet."
Decorated to a high standard and lovely and clean, bedding above what you would normally expect , lovely quality! Some extra touches to welcome people after the journey , milk, cream tea which was unexpected. Added bonus of a coffee machine with pods for those who like a morning coffee. Lovely base to relax and enjoy the sun in the garden and explore the area with quick access to the coastal path beaches padstow, newquay truro etc highly recommended!

TV could be better if it were a smart HDTV so you could stream Netflix or so. All that said it was clean, cosy and nice quiet place though the local Cockerell replaced my alarm clock haha.

"We were expecting to arrive at a 5 star clean cottage."
We dont feel it is five stars as cleanliness was poor and the property had a fusty smell due to issues with dampness. We also had a constant dripping kitchen tap and a bedroom blind that would not fully close.

"Your photo's of Cobs Cottage is very misleading inside and out, ie."
you took a long shot of the outside of the house which looks like we are getting a good size rental property, but when we came around the corner it was very small for the price we paid. Inside the shower room it was to small and the shower itself was not powerful enough, also the hand wash basin was to small. There was no electric power point to plug a shaver into. As we only used the main bedroom it could do with a very good cob webbing. Outside the property the car parking space is to small for our large car as i was asked to move it twice to allow large lorry's through, i could not reverse it back to the wall as i would have blocked the access to next doors property.
Overall we could not class this property as a 5 star rental home but more like a 4 star.

very welcoming leaving cream scones and orange juice on our arrival. Lots of information on where to go around the area and the beaches were fab. Found the spiral staircase very challenging trying to get the suitcase upstairs . But all together a very enjoyable week.
