  • "Very nice property - attached to the owners home."

    Very well equipped. Lovely garden. Very easy to get to both north and south coasts of Cornwall. Nearest shop around 5 minutes drive away. Bed was a bit lumpy ( I know this is a personal view!). Limited space in the bedroom for storage- fine for me on my own for a week but I think a couple might need more Sofa was comfortable for me but again I think a couple there for more than a few days would need more space. Also a smart TV would be good - I took a Fire Stick to get movies etc. Beautiful setting. Very peaceful and very clean. With good heating and a fantastic wood burner this would be good at any time of the year

  • "Primrose End is a bijou accommodation, excellently equipped, serviced and maintained , cosy and comfortable, a credit to the owners."

    The large enclosed garden is ideal for humans and pets alike, a lovely place to sit and relax with a glass of wine after a hectic day. We could not have asked for more, the complimentary cream tea on arrival was very much appreciated as was the help and advice from the owners. We heartily recommend Primrose End and will return in the future.

    Cottage could do with a larger sofa I think and a Smart TV would be a nice addition. Bathroom fabulous great water pressure, think the mattress was a little too soft for us. Great for exploring surrounding area, Tintagel, Boscastle and Bude.

  • "We arrived when it was dark and the streets around aren't lit so bear this in mind."

    We found it easy enough and parking is right outside the property which was convenient. It is very dark as it's the countryside but they have a light on the porch which was useful but sadly no light in the garden so my dog wouldn't really go in at night. It is a good size garden and pretty much enclosed my dog never escaped however it isn't connected directly to the door, not such a big deal but something to consider. The property was really clean and nicely furnished. However we arrived to no lights or heat on which wasn't ideal. However the heating soon got going and the log burner was a great addition. Personally i think due to the size this place is better suited to solo travellers as it is quite small. The bathroom is nice and i enjoyed a bath as it was such a lovely bath. Shower is hot and powerful. It was very peaceful here, so quiet, virtually no noise at all which I loved. Wi fi was great no issues. The owners lived next door and were there if needed which was great but also left us to it and gave us our privacy. The bedroom looks out onto part of a garden with a bird feeder and it was lovely to hear and see the birds each day from the bedroom window. They kindly left some scones and basic essentials which were useful including poo bags which came in handy. All in all I had a lovely stay here. There is a nice walk if you come out of the property take a right and your first left you can walk down a country lane with stunning views ( hardly any cars around) and to a little stream. This walk was great for the dog each morning before we went off exploring cornwall each day. I would recommend this property and would happily stay again, thank you to Julie and Andrew for being so lovely and accommodating during our stay. Me and the dog had a great holiday.

  • "The cottage was lovely and clean, well furnished and exactly as described."

    Its location allowed us to explore the north of Cornwall without feeling like we were driving all holiday, as you can get to almost everywhere in under an hour. The garden was beautifully maintained and furnished with chairs and a table which we loved to relax in after days out. On arrival scones, jam and clotted cream were left out- delicious! One thing to mention is that the garden is not fenced/hedged all the way around- there are two points where a dog could wander into the entrance of the property. This was not an issue for us but it is something I was not aware of before booking. Overall though we had an amazing time and I couldn’t recommend Primrose End enough!

    Thank you so much for your positive feedback. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Fully enclosing the garden area is a project that we will be undertaking this winter, as other guests have also mentioned this to us too. Many thanks Property Owner

  • "Although the cottage was clean unfortunately the dishwasher was not clean on opening the door the inside panels by the side of the door was filthy."

    Dinner plates (2) were dirty completely unwashed and greasy.l also the shelf the plates were on was dirty from the unwashed plates The inside detergent drawer of the washer was also filthy. Dirt spots on the area near the sink. Also chipped cup, bowls and plates. All reported by text to owner who offered to come and clean shelves and repaint the back of the sink (not needed as already cleaned shelf and washed plates). Owner said they would come and take away chipped pots but didn’t collect them. At a time of Covid this doesn’t look good. Also the cottage was quite expensive.

    Thank you for your feed-back. Firstly I can only apologise that you didn't get the experience you wanted from Primrose End. We have taken on board your feedback and have totally repainted the wall where the three spots of stain were above the sink. We have also totally replaced the crockery set with the three chipped items. We will add to our already stringent COVID cleaning checklist, the checking of all individual crockery and weekly cleaning weekly of the washing machine drawer and sides of the dishwasher, although I would like to point out that these were all brand new a few weeks ago. With regards to collecting the 3 chipped items from the property, looking back on the texts between us it would seem we have had miscommunication as I believed that due to the COVID situation they would be left out for me once you had vacated at the end of your stay. Many thanks. Property Owner

The property

Jacobstow 2.3 miles.

Located on a small holding with livestock, close to the small village of Jacobstow in North Cornwall is Primrose End, a quaint ground floor apartment, ideal for a romantic retreat for a couple wanting to explore the picturesque coast and countryside of North Cornwall.

Take the steps up into the property to find a wonderful open-plan living space, with a contemporary, well-equipped kitchen, where you can conjure up delicious meals to be enjoyed at the dining table together, before retiring on the inviting sofa, in front of the warming woodburning stove as you choose a DVD to watch and have a cosy movie night in.

When it's time to catch a good night's rest, the double bedroom is a calming space with soft carpeting, a feature navy blue wall and storage space for your belongings, while you can prepare for each new day with a long soak in the P-shaped bath, or use the overhead shower if you're in a hurry.

Spend time outside in the spacious rear garden, boasting a large lawn, outlined by pretty flora, with a seating area where you can dine alfresco and soak up your peaceful surroundings.

Jacobstow is a short drive away, offering a convenience store to stock up on any essentials, as well as a pub serving wonderful food and real ales, perfect for a date night.

The coastal town of Bude offers a choice of wonderful beaches, all boasting rolling waves making them extremely popular with surfers, as well as rockpools to explore at low tide and cafés to sit back in and enjoy the views, making it the ideal spot for an afternoon in the sunshine.

There is also an indoor swimming pool, a superb golf course, a bowling alley and a stunning 19th century castle with heritage centre, as well as an extensive choice of shops, supermarkets, cafe's, pubs and restaurants.

Join the South West Coast Path, which spans the entire coast, venturing west down the coast towards the historic village of Tintagel, passing a selection of beaches and coves, Pentargon Waterfall at Boscastle, the mystical Museum of Witchcraft and Magic and St Nectan's Glen nature reserve, which boasts a 60ft waterfall.

Tintagel itself boasts a long history and is known to be the birthplace of King Arthur, who resides at Tintagel Castle, the ruins of which are well worth visiting, as well as Merlin's Cave, the Gallos Sculpture and the historic Old Post Office.

Primrose End is a wonderful retreat for your next couple's getaway in North Cornwall.

JACOBSTOW

The small village of Jacobstow in North Cornwall has a church and a Holy Well. The nearest shop and pub are situated close by at Wainhouse Corner, with the children and dog-friendly Old Wainhouse Inn offering good food and real ales. Within reach is Bude, a fabulous coastal town that once visited you will want to come back to time and time again. Bude has something for everyone, great beaches for relaxing, and building sandcastles on, rockpools for investigating at low tide and cafe's to watch it all from. The rolling waves are great for surfing all year round, and the footpaths by the restored canal or on the North Cornwall coastal path offer you a superb opportunity to explore and appreciate the outstanding countryside.

For days out, take the coast road north to see the lonely lighthouse above the sea at Hartland Point or walk or ride a donkey down the steep and cobbled village street (no cars allowed) of beautiful Clovelly to the harbour and the pub far below. Follow the coast in the other direction and there's the little cove of Crackington Haven, Boscastle, King Arthur's castle at Tintagel, Doc Martin's Port Wenn at Port Isaac and yet more great surfing beaches at Polzeath.
