• "A beautiful well appointed cottage."

  Everything we could want, comfortable, very clean, warm, plenty of hot water, parking and welcoming. One of the best cottages I have stayed in. Can't fault it at all. And in the lovely town of Lostwithiel. Absolutely 5 star.

• "Loved staying at this property, only a couple of minor issues to note."

  Any water being drawn ie, turning on a tap flushing a toilet resulted in a lot of noise ! I noticed you had a problem with a square coffee table ,and replaced it with an oval glass one, personally, an oval solid / wooden one would be a better option . A hand rail for entry/ exit for the bath/ shower. The fan supplied is very noisy!! The neighbours parking could have been more considerate. Apart from these minor issues, we would love to stay again.

• "Perfect spot for exploring Cornwall."

  Nice and secure for our dogs and walking distance from three great pubs. Spotless cottage with friendly owners. Home from home and the desk area (wifi) is perfect for "working from home whilst on holiday!" we will be going back, nice touch with dog treats and prosecco! (prosecco not for the dogs, they were driving)

• "We've had a lovely stay at this charming cottage in the pretty village of Lostwithiel."

  Myself and my husband needed to use it as a home from home, both of us working for a couple of days whilst here. It was perfect; so comfortable, so well equipped and the WiFi was very fast, even with 2 of us working and on video calls. I used a purpose built desk upstairs and my husband the dining table downstairs. The owners seem to have thought of everything you could need and I didn't need to use anything I'd brought from home. It is extremely clean and beautifully decorated with plenty of storage space upstairs. When not working, it was a perfect place from which to explore the village and the rest of Cornwall. We ate in The Globe in the village, which was lovely. I can also recommend Haveners in Fowey ("Foy") which wasn't our first choice, but they found us a table on a busy day and couldn't have been any more friendly. The dressed crab was superb and well worth the walk back up the steep hill to the main car park! We met the cottage owners, who owns both 1 and 2 Old Talbot, a lovely, welcoming couple. Thank you very much for the bubbly you left for us and we hope to be back soon. We're very happy to recommend your beautiful cottage to everyone.

• "2nd visit to this lovely cottage, it has so many added extras and we were delighted to find the cottage has had a fabulous garden/dining area built since our last visit."

  It has great views over Lostwithiel and the hills beyond. We had a breakfast and evening meal taking in the view. Lostwithiel is a very pretty town and the cottage is a couple of minutes walk from pubs, shops and the River Fowey with a wide range of beaches within a 15 minute drive. Looking forward to our next visit already

  Second bedroom is a bit of a squeeze but suited our 12 and 8 year olds fine. The owners kindly let us use an outside socket to charge our electric car. We would be very happy to return to Talbot Cottages.

• "Lovely comfortable cottage, well decorated, comfortable sofa, chairs and bed."

  Really close to pubs, restaurants, shops. Ideal situation for exploring local attractions . Only downsides are - no garden - but table and chairs provided on gravel drive protected by a wall. A bit of road noise from the bedroom.

  Thank you for the good feedback score. We really appreciate that you found our place comfortable. We do agree, Lostwithiel really does have everything you need right on the doorstep. Its very unfortunate that we have no control over the traffic volume at the height of the tourist season, however, our place is triple glazed, which definitely keeps the road noise to minimal. Thank you also for the garden comments, we do hope to address this, however, there is a table and chairs and ample room to enjoy our lovely view. We hope that you will visit again. You will be very welcome. Property Owner

  The cottage was very clean and well furnished. Welcome treats on arrival were much appreciated as was the early check in. We would stay here again in the future. Lots of books to read, local area info, nice outside space. The location is great, central location to nearby shops and restaurants. Nice walk for the dogs by the river.

• "The cottage was very good, beautifully decorated with good furniture."

  Our only criticism would be the outside space, although the table and chairs were fine the actual area was unkempt.

  We are very pleased that you enjoyed our cottage. It is unfortunate that we were away for a while, and at this time we had a lot of sunshine as well as rain... ideal growing conditions for weeds. We are now back on top of looking after the parking area and garden. We take pride in the presentation of our property, including the outside space, and we do hope that you will visit us again soon.

  All needs catered for and paying particular attention to persons comfort. Delight being pet friendly. The cottage was placed within a few minutes walk from the train station which we used on occasions to travel to different places in Cornwall.

• "Just had a wonderful second visit to this lovely cottage."

  We really appreciate being able to park safely off the road there and not having to worry about using local car parks. Everything is very cosy and comfortable and provides everything we could need, and the owners are friendly and helpful and respond quickly to any queries. Within easy reach we visited Charlestown and Fowey, both breathtakingly beautiful, St Austell (which sadly is not!), the Duchy of Cornwall nursery gardens, plus a shopping trip to Trago, a visit to a new organic restaurant (soon to add farm shop, cafe and garden walk) in a fabulous setting at Crocadon Farm near Saltash, and of course spent time in Lostwithiel itself which we love. We definitely hope to return next year!

  Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are so glad that you love our cottage and the surrounding area. We do agree that the private parking we have is an additional bonus. We do hope that you will return again soon. You will be very welcome any time. Property Owner

  Lostwithiel is a quaint little town which has a river running through with picnic tables ideal for families. There are plenty of local walks around although we only walked up to Restormel castle which was interesting. All-in all we had a good week.

We do have triple glazing at the cottage, however we do appreciate that you visited during a very warm spell, when you would be most likely to want to leave the windows open, and that the end of August is the busiest time on our Cornish roads.

  The house had everything we needed including a high chair and plenty of equipment for cooking our own meals (when we weren’t enjoying the delicious fish and chips in the village). The location was perfect, with the playing fields and river so close behind the house for restless little people. We also enjoyed the views over the valley sitting at the outside table. The WiFi was surprisingly fast for a small village and fine for working from “home”. The owners couldn’t do enough to make us comfortable. Will definitely book again.

  If you are looking at staying in Lostwithiel this is ideally located with everything within walking distance (pubs x4, shops, river, country walks and train station).
