• "Fabulous little cottage, local wine and biscuits on arrival, very clean and generously equipped kitchen, open fire with wood provided."

  Lots of useful local informal provided also. Great location and a massive bonus for us was the garden terrace as the weather was gorgeous so enjoyed morning coffee and evening drink there. So many great places to eat within walking distance, from quaint cafes to a Michelin star restaurant, the cobweb pub was the winner for us! Bus stop also close by to Tintagel and beyond and wonderful cliff top walks. We’ll Be back !!

• "We love the cottage it’s was well maintained and in a perfect position."

  Only draw back was car parked across entrance to the row of houses. Which appeared to be there for a couple of days making it difficult when we and other people leaving had to reverse back down the road!

• "Cobble Cottage is a lovely place and perfect for myself and two daughters."

  The location couldn't be better. The house is well equipped with everything you could need. Just needs a few things fixing. The peely paint in the kitchen isn't great when you find it in your cereal bowl and on the plates ( stored on the shelf by the peely paint). The door to the little bedroom kept getting stuck and needed a good shove to open it. We left it open in the end in case one of us got trapped in there. Also, the mattress in that room is really hard. My girls took it in turn to sleep on it so someone didn't have the uncomfortable bed all week. Saying, that it is a great cottage and we would stay there again.

  Boscastle is a very special place and our 3 year old granddaughter loved it her favourite thing who’s to go down to the harbour every night. Thank you

  Spotlessly clean, very comfortable and in an excellent location. Will definitely come back if we have the opportunity

• "Elements are tired."

  Especially lounge furniture. Needs hand rails on stairs in house and back garden steps up to terrace. However we still love this house and can’t wait to visit again!

  Thanks for the feedback. For clarity for other guests, there is a handrail all the way up the stairs inside the house on one side. 2 of the 3 flights of steps to the garden have a handrail. The final flight of steps does not have a handrail but you can hold the edge of our patio as you are climbing. There isn't an easy way to add a rail here but we will bear it in mind and consider it for future improvements. Property Owner

  Beautiful cottage might even say one of the best ones in the village, right in the middle of the village you have shops,pubs all around and even breakfast in the little cafe less than 30seconds walk and the best cakes wow, very cheap too, the food places are expensive but worth it and if you drive to widemouth Manor try the carvery you won't regret it and if you book around 7ish you will see the sun set beautiful

• "Cobble Cottage was exactly what I had in mind when I was tasked with organising a long weekend in Cornwall for my parents, partner and myself."

  The cottage itself had all the charm and character you’d want, plus a nice kitchen, living space and two reasonable doubles and a single. The added bonus of being in the heart of the village - with pubs and restaurants and access to the coastal walks - was just perfect. We did not have to leave the village of an evening, so we could relax and all have a drink. Thanks for hosting us!

  The cottage is very homely with everything we needed to hand. All the personal touches, fresh flowers, milk in the fridge, local wine, biscuits, made us feel so welcome.

• "Excellent week in Cobble Cottage, second holiday this year there."

  A really comfortable cottage, cosy and clean. A great location in sleepy Boscastle with good food in nearby Cob and Riverside, plus the bakers across the way for pastries and bread in the morning, and without fail a visit to Jamaica Inn further on the Moor. Lovely welcome gifts which were much appreciated after the journey down, thank you! We visited loads of places while there including Tintagel (King Arthur's Halls and Old Post Office), Bude, Crackington Haven, Wheal Martyn, Bodmin Gail, St Nectans Glen, Museum of Witchcraft and Magic, Vale of Avalon, Jamaica Inn, among others. We will return hopefully next year! Dave Ely

• "This was an absolute gem in the hot weather - so cool."

  Nice and central! Surely the loveliest cottage in Boscastle. Very well equipped. A washing line across the top of the garden would be really very useful - maybe one you can pull out from one of the fence posts. I’d also suggest bolting the bedside tables to the wall in the front bedroom as they can easily tip over due to uneven floor as you expect in an old cottage.

• "A lovely cottage which is very well equipped, clean and comfortable."

  We particularly liked sitting on the terrace (between showers!) looking out at the activity in the village down below. Although the cottage is quietly situated it is very convenient to nip out to the shops or a walk down to the harbour. Parking in the public car park was no trouble either. Unfortunately the weather turned very cold for the end of June and we were glad of the logs for the fire. The only slight negative to our stay was trying to work out how to turn on the heating. We had to give up in the end! Would recommend more detailed instructions to use the night storage heating. Would stay here again.

• "Fully equipped cottage with all the amenities set in a wonderful pictures location."

  The cottage felt homely from the moment we arrived till the moment we left. The small welcome basket was a nice touch along with the welcome note from Isla. Would highly recommend a stay here if you are looking for peace and tranquillity that is great base to explore the north coast or Cornwall.

• "Have stayed there before, they have made changes to the kitchen for the better, but would prefer the large fridge to be located against the back wall rather than in the against the main wall."

  Would also benefit from some small steps as much of the top shelf is difficult to reach if not that tall. Will book again as love the place.

• "Before our review of the property: The access to the property, as stated by Sykes, is a parking spot for another cottage; this spot is usually populated."

  If you have a small car, you "may" just get past to reach the cottage as guided by Sykes. If you can`t, you will have to drive down the road towards the National Trust shop then turn right (and it`s a bit of a nightmare reversing back down). This is our 3rd time at Cobble Cottage, and we have loved it. There have been a few changes since our last visit before the pandemic started; I think these are detrimental to the character of the cottage, but my partner thinks they are for the better. One change we both agree on is the garishly red fridge / freezer; it looks completely out of place. Cobble is a lovely cottage and we both thoroughly recommend it as a base to visit Boscastle and further. There is a lovely, and large, open fire for which we take a mixture of coal and wood; giving a lovely focal point while we relax with a nice glass of wine in the evenings.

• "A charming old cottage right in the centre, lots of history and beautiful scenery."

  The property has been cleverly renovated and is well equipped. The carpets and rugs need more thorough cleaning and the settee and armchair is rather soiled and saggy. No doubt the owners will replace this for next year. We had a lovely week, enjoyed exploring the village shops and the many coast path walks. The car park was very close, convenient and reasonably priced. The location was great for visiting several other beautiful places.

  We had an issue with the washing machine which was sorted very quickly by the housekeeper. The TVs instructions were poor but sorted by a local expert most helpfully, again organised by the very pleasant housekeeper. It was lovely to have a bottle of local wine and milk when we arrived. The paperwork giving us information about visits etc was very useful.

• "The high chair I ordered was not provided and the housekeeper was unable to supply one so we had to buy one."

  I think we should have been made aware that the cottage wasn't really suitable for families with young children. Having to pay an extra £100 for parking was a bit of a shock. The house could have been cleaner and supplies (ie. spare tea towels, dishcloths, toilet paper etc.) easier to find. Sykes are very unpersonal and obviously don't communicate with the housekeeper. The promised fresh linen for the second week was not provided. The location is wonderful and the cottage charming but I don't think we got value for money.
