  • "Wonderfully appointed bungalow."

    Comfortable, clean excellent facilities. Well equipped kitchen with everything you need. Lovely enclosed garden ,if you're taking your dog ,with a private access to the coastal paths. Handy base for trips to Tintagel, Bude or down the hill into Boscastle itself. Property is situated in a nice quiet residential area with off road parking. Can't fault it really but being honest it's probably best if you have your own transport, as most people do nowadays, although buses are available. Highly recommended and thanks to the owners. We had a great time despite the weather, lol.

  • "St Albans offers everything you need for a relaxing stay in Boscastle."

    Little things like washing powder, condiments, kitchen roll etc were provided, along with a welcome pack of local cider and biscuits, which was a nice touch. I left my daughters capybara plush behind, and the person(s) were in touch straight away offering to post it back to us, luckily our friends were still in Boscastle, so it was dropped to their house. Lovely walks available, straight out the back garden and past the church. Would highly recommend this place, and couldn't fault anything. Thank you!!

  • "Lovely location, comfort & cleanliness - we really enjoyed our stay."

    A neighbour’s dog barked quite a lot, but I’m not sure there’s much you can do about that one. Fortunately it wasn’t overnight. We stayed at Easter & the heating was locked to ‘off’ - this was mostly fine, but there were a couple of mornings when we could have done with being able to turn on to take the chill off the air. We loved the conservatory & that we could walk to the headland from the garden!

  • "This is great property."

    The conservatory is a great bonus if you get wet days as light and bright space to spend time until the rain stops. This property is great if you love to walk the cornish coastline without haveing to drive the car and park. We loved the space and garden this property offers so much we have re booked for next year.

    The neighbour apologised for her dog barking which went on all day . A bit intrusive. Everything else was good

  • "Lovely house in a great position with everything you could need for your stay."

    The garden furniture was excellent and a bonus which wasn't listed was the BBQ complete with charcoal. The rear gate which gave access to the coastal path was used everyday and was very handy. No negatives we can think of and all the equipment in all the rooms were in excellent condition, would highly recommend this property and the welcome pack including the local cider was very much appreciated.

  • "We felt very comfortable and at home in the bungalow."

    We really appreciated having everything we could need, I lovely welcome letter and lovely local items to try. Close to the harbour and shops, you also have access to the church and head with its fantastic walks and views. It is the ideal place to stay with a lovely garden and so close to nearby coves and beached. Thank you so much for making our stay so comfortable and enjoyable! We would definitely stay again in future.

  • "Lovely, comfortable and clean bungalow, situated in an ideal location, close to a local Premier shop, pub and public transport."

    Boscastle village is a 20 minute walk down a steep bank, so it certainly keeps you fit on the way back up. The village has some lovely shops and places to eat; the food at the Cobweb Inn was really nice and they serve generous portions. A visit to the Witches Museum was interesting, but a bit scary if you're easily spooked like me.

BOSCASTLE

Tintagel 4 miles; Camelford 6 miles.

A perfect Cornish coastal village, the road through Boscastle runs down to the small harbour at the bottom of the hill. The quaint village shops, local restaurants and pubs offering good food, Cornish real ales and live entertainment by local musicians, make this an ever popular visitor destination. Spectacular cliff tops, rocky coves, wild surf, open fields and rich wildlife characterise this beautiful area. The coastal footpath passes through some of Britain’s most rugged and spectacular coastal scenery. The sandy beaches of Bossiney, Trebarwith Strand and Crackington Haven are all within 5 miles and the surfing beaches at Bude and Polzeath are within easy driving distance. Close at hand lie the delights of Tintagel, swathed in the legends of King Arthur, several stately homes and renowned gardens, or the wide open space of Bodmin Moor, famous for its granite tors and Daphne Du Maurier’s Jamaica Inn.
