  • "The pictures don't do Rock View justice."

    It's a lovely Cornish cottage in a peaceful location, very central for beaches and sightseeing. Beautifully decorated with lovely beds, linens, and all you need for a comfortable stay. The gardens are small but secure for doggies, with parking directly in front of the house. A perfect holiday home! Loved it so much that we've booked another week in September.

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re absolutely delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Rock View and found it to be even better than the pictures. It’s great to know the cottage’s peaceful location, décor, and amenities made your visit so comfortable, and that it worked well for your furry friends too! We’re thrilled to welcome you back in September! If there’s anything we can do to make your next stay even more special, just let us know. Property Owner

  • "Rock View is an absolute gem of a cottage."

    Beautiful, comfy, spacious and well-equipped. It’s really clear that a lot of love has been put into its renovation and care. The dogs enjoyed the garden (though be warned if you have an athletic, ‘adventurous’ dog some of the walls are jumpable so supervision needed!). Despite the heat wave, the cottage stayed cool, and we really loved our time there.

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re absolutely delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Rock View and appreciated the care and attention that’s gone into its renovation. It’s lovely to know the cottage stayed cool during the heat wave and that your dogs had fun in the garden — thank you for the helpful note for fellow dog owners too! We hope to welcome you back again soon for another relaxing stay. Property Owner
