  • "Our sat nav took us slightly away from swallows nest but found it quite quickly."

    Arrived to a lovely cottage. Parking at the door, lovely large garden with table and chairs, and sheep in the field behind. Ann the owner was there to welcome us, everything there and sweet Williams and chocolate biscuits on the table. A very spacious cottage, with all facilities you require and comfortable bed. It's tucked away in the countryside but really central for so many places, walking, towns, seaside and golf. It was our anniversary while we were there and Ann thoughtfully got us a card and some lovely chrysanthemums. All in all a great place to stay and perfect owners right there on the doorstep. Weather was spot on also

  • "The photos don't really do the cottage justice - it was much more cosy and lovely than we expected."

    The heating worked very quickly, the open plan space was lovely and very functional, especially for a family with children. It was lovely that the lounge opened out onto the garden - although we didn't really get to enjoy the garden as it rained a lot, it's such a big space and would be so nice to sit out in. The kitchen had all you need in terms of equipment. The owner was so so nice and friendly. We would definitely stay again!!

  • "Wi fi was not great in the cottage."

    Only worked when in the bedrooms. It would benefit greatly from a plug-in WiFi booster linked to the BT Hub which I I think is situated in the adjacent cottage. Not expensive or difficult to install but would make a big difference.

    Beautiful fresh flowers on arrival along with fresh milk and a delicious cake! Kids loved the freedom of the garden with the added bonus of beautiful Cornish sunshine. Lovely and quiet location close to Tintagel and Bude’s beautiful beach. So nice to have some sort of normality in what’s been a very strange 2020! Hosts were lovely and very welcoming, we loved it so much we’ve booked again for next year!

Higher Witheven Farm Cottages, Cornwall

Launceston 10.8 miles. These adjoined, stone barn conversions rest in a quiet, countryside location, with no traffic noise and uninterrupted views across open farmland, some 10 miles from the ancient Cornish town of Launceston. The cottages are set at the end of a country lane on a 130-acre sheep and cattle farm in Canworthy Water, within easy reach of the breath-taking North Cornish coast. If you are looking for a place to relax and unwind with your family or a group of friends, look no further than Higher Witheven Farm, where you have your own private gardens in which to soak up the country atmosphere and occasionally listen to the sounds of a new born, bleating lamb in springtime. They have each been lovingly converted, with two bedrooms, en-suite bathrooms, wooden floors and vaulted ceilings for a character feel. Choose to eat alfresco-style in your private garden space and invite your family friends to enjoy a feast together off the barbecue, washed down with a chilled bottle of wine on a warm summer's evening. Explore all the delights of Cornwall and the North Devon area, with fabulous beaches, historic sites and wonderful opportunities for walking and cycling. Head to the inviting town of Launceston and find the ruins of a Norman castle, fine Georgian buildings and numerous places to dine out, while Bude also offers plenty of restaurants, gift shops and Heritage Centre at Bude Castle. The chocolate-box town of Padstow is also worth a visit, as is Plymouth, The Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan, each offering different days out to be enjoyed by all. This is a tranquil base from which to explore an inspiring region of the UK.
