“Basic but beautiful.”

This quaint little cottage is set in a beautiful, peaceful location ideal for exploring both north and south Cornwall. The cottage is close to the other Halgabron cottages but it still feels private. Robin (the owner) gives you a warm welcome and is a mine of information on the local area. You can access the stunning St Nectan's Glen via a right of way through the garden and Tintagel is a very short drive away ...

This quaint little cottage is set in a beautiful, peaceful location ideal for exploring both north and south Cornwall. The cottage is close to the other Halgabron cottages but it still feels private. Robin (the owner) gives you a warm welcome and is a mine of information on the local area. You can access the stunning St Nectan's Glen via a right of way through the garden and Tintagel is a very short drive away. The cottage had everything we needed but it may be worth noting for others that if you are looking for somewhere modern and super clean, this place may not be for you. Furthermore the fridge has no freezer compartment, no bath towels are supplied and the free WiFi has a very poor signal and we could not connect at all. Additionally the sofa bed is very stiff to pull back up and i was unable to do it single-handedly. Having said that, the bed is amazingly comfortable and the bedding was lovely and fresh. During our stay, the cottage was host to a great many spiders (not surprising given the time of year) and insects which did not bother me at all but I think it is important to mention as part of a review for those who have a real fear. I really enjoyed my stay in this delightful little cottage which despite its size, still felt open and airy thanks to there being lots of windows, the largest of which looks out to the patio and a pretty buddleia which was flowering when we were there and was covered in butterflies.Just lovely.

“Millstream cottage was the absolute perfect little romantic hideaway for a short trip.”

Nestled in the woods it is like something out of a fairy tale!! Great walks immediately near by and about a 30 minute walk into Tintagel (if you don't get distracted by the play park on the way home from the pub!). The cottage had everything we needed and acted well as a base for our other adventures as well having the lovely secluded patio to relax by the stream of an evening. Absolute bliss!

“Halgabron Cottages are just the best idyllic and secluded spot for a quiet and just lovely break.”

Set in wonderful grounds and easy access to walks along the Rocky Valley, St Nectan's Glen and down to the beach, we just had a simply wonderful break. The owner of the cottages is a lovely and accommodating person who was so welcoming and approachable. This was our honeymoon and we couldn't have picked a better spot for it. Superb all round!

“Cottage was beautiful, so was the setting.”

Robin was a very friendly and helpful host. He directed us to some wonderful walks and was always ready to provide local information. We had a really brilliant time and would definitely go again.

“The mill cottage was so unusual!”

It's in a lovely part of Cornwall within easy access of the sea and local amenities - only a mile from Tintagel. Very peaceful - just the sounds of the birds and the stream running by. Heavenly!

“Rustic Charm”

Exactly what you expect, Rustic little cottage very cosy and clean ideal for twoo on a romantic break. Absolutely loved this place and its location in a little glen alongside a babbling brook, waterfall and pretty gardens. Had all we needed and wifi!

“So beautiful”

On seeing the cottage for the first time it looked delightful. The owner, Roger, gave us a warm welcome and was most helpful. The cottage is small but has lots of charm, it is a shame that the weather wasn't kinder enabling us to sit in the lovely patio. The only down side was the shower wasn't very strong but that was no real problem. We walked through one of the gardens to St Nectan's Glen, the going was harder due to the rain but we came to a café and had a welcome cuppa. We then paid £7.00 to go down to the waterfall, we were the only ones there and it was a place of such peace and calm we thought the money was well spent. There is another long walk from the cottage through Rocky Valley, so glad we did it. The walk to the nearest restaurant is not one I would like to do in the evening, we felt that a car was needed. We had to come home early for personal reasons but we have many happy memories and photos of our holiday in the little cottage.

“Absolutely beautiful x”

Lovely week in beautiful little 1 room cottage totally idyllic with gorgous surroundings. We were left to our own devices and had a much needed peaceful week. Ideally situated between Tintagel and Boscastle, we had some lovely walks too including up to St Nectans Glen.

“A magical place to be.”

Easy walking distance to St. Nectans Glen , Rocky Valley and Bossiney Haven made this quaint little Millhouse Idyllic for a fuss free break. The towns of Boscastle and Tintagel were only a few mins. away.

“You get what you see”

We already filled in a reveiw and sent it by post.But here we go again. The service we received was very good. We loved the home and the location was beautiful. The fridge was too small and we would have liked more storagespace for shoes and wardrobe. The bed was sagging in the middle. We loved the small round little cottage and its situation. The service was good and we would recommend the cottage to our friends.

“A little dream in a lovely place”

This little mill is a unique and cosy place to stay. The surrounding woods, the great garden, the little stream and the nearby sea create a beautiful atmosphere. Everything is very well prepared and lovely.

“lovely and kind of magical”

The place was how described and exactly what we were looking for. Surrounded by the gardens and the woods, and also being close to Tintagel, the Coastal path and other nice places to visit, we really enjoyed our stay.

“Magical”

A brilliant place to stay. The enclosed setting is superb. I am Disabled and found everything close at hand and user friendly. The only negative point is the Fridge, or lack of freezer space. The out buildings have a washing machine and T/Dryer and there is more than enough room for a small chst freezer. That would be excellent and would not have to worry about buying fresh meat etc., Storage would not be a problem as there is only Mill stream Cottage and two other houses. I can't see a problem with putting ones food in a bag/box with ones name on it. Apart from that then the cottage is wonderful. A pure haven of peacefullness and tranquility. We love it. Local amenities are good.

About the location

TINTAGEL

Camelford 6 miles; Wadebridge 12 miles.

Tintagel, home of the legendary King Arthur’s Castle, whose ruins dominate the cliffside just outside the village, is a popular but not overcrowded tourist destination. The surrounding area is dominated by the sea, rocky coves and stunning scenery. Several beaches, including nearby Trebarwith Strand and Bossiney Cove, are within easy reach and surfing is the main attraction for those who love the water. Tintagel has several pubs and restaurants and the Old Post Office (National Trust) is a must. For the energetic, the SW Coast Path passes through the village and in both directions it winds its way along the cliffs and down to the water’s edge through dramatic countryside. Head north along the path and in 2.5 miles is the beautiful village of Boscastle with its quaint quay and village pubs for refreshment. Further afield are the surfing meccas of Newquay and Bude, with their resort attractions, while the open spaces of Bodmin Moor, the Eden Project, Padstow and the Camel Estuary are all within a 40-minute drive.
