We had a wonderful stay at the Hayloft. The hosts have thought of everything so it was very easy to make it our home for a week. I am a bit of a cleanliness freak so I was pleased to see that everything was spotless, especially the kitchen and kitchen equipment. The location is absolutely stunning and very convenient for exploring everything that tRead morehe area has to offer. We would definitely recommend this place to others, especially to larger families, like ours, who need flexible accommodation. Hide

Absolutely incredible place to stay. All the other reviews are right, the pictures really don't do it justice. Everything was immaculately clean. Scones with clotted cream and Cornish apple juice on arrival. All cleaning stuff, tea towels and even dishwasher tablets. Plenty of kitchen utensils for cooking.

Wow! The photos on the website do not do this property justice- it is beautiful. The setting is incredibly peaceful and lends itself to a tranquil escape from busy lives. Despite it being a busy working farm, this didn't impact on the stay, at times adding to it as we watched them completing the harvest. The instructions to find it sent by email weRead morere very clear, the host met us on arrival and was easy to contact if we needed anything. Already looking to book another visit. Hide

We had an amazing holiday here. It was such a lovely place to stay, both in proximity to other places in Cornwall, but also as a cottage itself. The garden was a wonderful haven which we all enjoyed, and the indoor facilities were lovely There was a beautiful welcome pack, with all of the essentials, we so appreciated this and it made our first eveRead morening much easier! Following another review, we saw that there was a possibility of a stair gate, and we were thankful this was put up for us! Hide
