  • "Lovely spot , very clean and comfortable and fully equipped."

    Friendly host who popped round to make sure we had everything we needed. Only issue for us a bit of a walk to local village and further a field from local beaches than we realised. However if peace and quiet is what your looking for this is the place to be.

    It was in an idyllic setting, with a private garden, and a bird lovers delight. The owners had provided every home comfort, the furnishings were superb and we spent many happy hours watching the wildlife in such peaceful surroundings.

  • "We have just returned from a week stay at lower Tamsquite."

    It was perfect, and had everything we could need for a home from home stay with our children. The kitchen is very well equipped, and a separate utility room was great! The bedrooms were very comfortable and having the separate studio would be great for a relative to stay for their own space. We loved spending time at the house during our stay, we were so lucky with the April weather we spent a lot of time in the lovely garden. Val and Ken are great hosts and made our stay so welcoming. Thank you for having us, we are looking forward to coming to stay again!

    A beautful cottage that was spotlessly clean and tidy also a great central location for visiting well known tourist places, but for us it was a quiet haven where you could watch the birds and enjoy peace on your doorstep.

  • "Our 2nd visit to this beautiful cottage, even with 2 teenagers and our small dog there is plenty of room."

    We had a lovely warm welcome from the owner with thoughtful gestures of fresh milk for tea and some Cornish biscuits waiting for us. The cottage was spotlessly clean, and lovely and warm, and full of charm but with 2 modern bathrooms and beautiful kitchen with all the mod cons. There is the added bonus of a lovely wood burner in the lounge with plenty of wood on hand for cosy winter evenings in after a day sightseeing around the stunning picturesque villages dotted along the coastline. The garden is beautifully kept and it was very relaxing watching and listening to the variety of winter birds feeding from the bird feeder whilst sitting in the comfy conservatory. We can’t wait to return.

  • "Absolutely beautiful, cosy but spacious cottage with lovely friendly hosts (who live just down the road in case you need them)."

    The cottage is spotlessly clean and really well equipped, they really have thought of everything, even the wood burner was set up ready to light in case of a chilly evening. Lower Tamsquite is off the beaten track and surrounded by woods and farmland but nicely positioned to visit all our favourite places on the north coast. We will definitely book again.

St Tudy is home to a well-stocked village shop, a Post Office and a pub, St Tudy Inn, and lies just two miles from the start of the popular Camel Trail, a 17-mile cycle path following the river from Bodmin Moor down to Padstow. Surrounding attractions to visit include Tintagel Castle in the pretty coastal village of Tintagel, Pinetum Park and Pine Lodge Gardens, Lanhydrock House and Gardens, and Pencarrow House and Gardens.
