    The cottage was clean and really well kept, the hosts were lovely and the beaches nearby were beautiful. Our favourite thing was simply how quiet the area was, very peaceful.

    Liked it all. Very comfortable, easy of access, convenient and enjoyed excellent weather! Navigating the lanes on the way there a bit of a challenge to start with but we soon got used to them.

    Die Ruhe, die Aussicht, die Einrichtung. Sehr ruhig, wenn man von den vielen Vögeln absieht :-) Innerhalb 5 min hört man manchmal über 10 verschiedene Gesänge. Toll, daß ein Fernglas im Haus hängt.

Neighbourhood information

Set among lush rolling meadows and wooded slopes flowing down to the gorgeous Helford river, just 3 miles away, this very quaint small community has a few shops, a pub, and a lovely church. The superb gardens of Trebah, Penjerrick, Glendurgan, and Carwinion are all within 4 miles of this quieter region of Cornwall, which is known for its warm temperature. The misty reaches of the Helford river meander upstream to Gweek, where the world-renowned Seal Sanctuary tends after the region's numerous abandoned and injured seals, making it ideal for nature lovers and boaters.
