Sheila's Cottage

• "Fantastic cottage."

  Lots of space, with large living room / dining room, and a sizeable conservatory. Decent sized walk in shower cubicle with lovely powerful shower. Kitchen very well equipped with everything you could need. The cottage was spotlessly clean, the welcome treats on arrival were a lovely surprise. Graham was so friendly, helpful, and genuinely concerned when our dog had to go to the vet with a shoulder strain. I would definitely recommend staying here - great location to explore Helston, Falmouth and the Lizard. Don’t be put off by the narrow lanes - Sheila’s Cottage is an absolute gem with perfect peace and quiet.

• "If you are looking for peace and quiet this really is the place for you, and yet it’s ideally situated as a base for exploring the area."

  Very comfortable and spotlessly clean, with all you would need during your stay. Excellent information for finding the cottage, the local area, and equipment you may need to use, given by Greame and Gail, who are both very welcoming and on hand to help if required. I would thoroughly recommend Sheila’s Cottage, and will be looking to book again in the future.

• "Perfect place - larger than the pictures showed."

  A complete list of how everything worked, was very useful. The owners, who lived next door, were very helpful, but discreet. Very quiet, but not far from things to do and see, so long as you had a car. Felt very comfortable there.

• "Fantastic accomodation, exceptionally high standard all round."

  The owners had apparently previously recieved some negative feedback re the bed which they have now replaced. As first users of it we can report it’s super comfortable! The fact they immediately act on feedback sums up their approach to providing a great service to guests.

  Quiet, picturesque surroundings in the owners garden. The cottage, with its super conservatory a bonus, had everything needed for a great relaxing break. We wanted for nothing, there was plenty of crockery, cutlery and cooking gear galore….all spotless. Decorated in a cosy fashion…lots of cupboards containing fascinating items, and plenty of books and games etc. Kitchen was amazing and cooker was easy to work. Shower was lovely and powerful in the en-suite bathroom. Plenty of storage space…in a fitted wardrobe. Graeme and Gail were lovely hosts who left us milk, chocolates and wine, and we left with a cutting of a very unusual plant!! A top notch property….we loved it here!

  This cottage with its large conservatory is ideal for us and our dog, being comfortable and well provided, while relatively remote and peaceful. It is well placed as a base from which to motor to any of the wonderful walks of the SW peninsula while Truro, Penryn, and Falmouth are easily accessible, and if you avoid the rush hour, they are never as crowded as the North coast resorts.

  It truly is a lovely 'home from home' experience. Everything, was so cosy, clean and welcoming. Graeme and Gail left us a bottle of wine, fresh flowers, chocolates and treats for our dog, as well as even laying the fire in the log burner ready for us. Central heating through-out, which was timed perfectly, so that we were always warm in October. Even extra niceties, such as fresh milk in the fridge, the little things you might forget to take such as cooking oil, condiments ect all provided. This was on top of all cleaning products provided, including dishwasher and washing machine tabs. Extremely comfortable bed, pillows ect. This cottage has it all, including peace and quiet if you need a restful break. It also has a lovely conservatory, with comfortable seating to put your feet up and enjoy the evenings drawing in, in comfort. Cards, games, CDs, DVDs also provided if you want to fill some time. Our hosts were lovely and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. I mistakenly left my hairdryer and kindle behind and they kindly informed me and posted it out to me the same day, wrapped in bubble wrap for protection. Also, sitiated close to all amenities and dog friendly beaches in half term. Quite frankly, in our experience we can honestly say that the whole week was made for us with such a lovely clean, inviting and cosy cottage to return to each day. Thank you Graeme and Gail for a lovely holiday that we both felt was a breath of fresh air for us, as well as extremely good value for money. This cottage surpassed all our expectations, thank you! It is definitely on our radar for return visits.

  More that we had been invited to house sit for a friend. The property was beautifully appointed and lovely touches made it feel like a home and very welcome. The only reason it does not score 100% is that we would have preferred a bed larger than a double (it was accurately described however), so if you are happy with a double bed, I don't think you could go past this beautiful cottage and it's friendly and hospitable hosts.
