• "The property could do with a dishwasher and better kitchen table and chairs."

  The information sheets need updating eg The Radgel pub has been closed for over a year and the Fish and Chip shop was closed for the week we were there. However we had a lovely week.

  Thank you for your lovely feedback comments you left in our visitors' book and please to hear you had a lovely week. We also appreciate your additional feedback. Property Owner

• "We had a lovely week away in the cottage."

  Upon entering the cottage we were very pleasantly surprised, it was spotlessly clean, well equipped & roomy. The owner Jon called around to see if we had settled in OK & provided us with some very usual info on places to visit. We found it very useful that the garden was secured by a small fence, to our dog to roam freely. We would definitely recommend this cottage

• "Just back from 14 days @ 15 Boscaswell Downs, what a lovely, clean, quiet and friendly place to stay."

  Huge thank you to Jon for the guidance and terrific scones on the Sunday. The house is situated in a very good location with easy access North, South and East, in fact I don't think you could stay in a better location, with a very welcoming pub (The North Inn), serving lovely food, 200 yards away. Overall a great experience. Steve Watson

• "We recently spent a delightful week at Boscaswell Downs in Cornwall, and it was nothing short of magical."

  From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the charm of this lovely cottage. Nestled in a serene and picturesque location, it offered the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The cottage itself is beautifully maintained, blending rustic charm with modern comforts. The interior was cozy and tastefully decorated, making us feel right at home. The well-equipped kitchen allowed us to prepare our own meals, and we enjoyed many peaceful breakfasts and dinners in the quaint dining area overlooking the stunning Cornish countryside. One of the highlights was the private garden, a tranquil space where we spent hours soaking in the beauty of the surroundings. We loved exploring the nearby coastal walks, and the cottage's proximity to both the sea and charming villages made it an ideal base for our adventures. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and attentive, providing us with plenty of local tips and ensuring our stay was comfortable. Their attention to detail really made a difference, and we appreciated the thoughtful touches like the welcome basket filled with local goodies. Overall, our stay at Boscaswell Downs was a wonderful experience. Whether you're looking for a romantic retreat or a peaceful family holiday, this cottage is the perfect choice. We can't wait to return!

  Thank you for your comments highlighting not only both what the Cottage and the location has to offer but also it is very pleasing to know that you all enjoyed the wonderful varied surrounding area and the many amenities. Many thanks for taking the time to leave your amazing review. We look forward to your next visit. Best Regards Jon Property Owner

• "The cottage was beautifully presented and had everything we needed for our stay."

  It is in a quiet and secluded area in the small village of Pendeen, yet St Ives, Penzance, Land’s End are all easily accessible by car. The clifftop walk from Land’s End to Sennen and seeing dolphins on a boat trip from Penzance were highlights. The Porthmeor Beach Cafe in St Ives and The Queen’s Arms in Botallack were both excellent and dog friendly.

  Thank you for taking the time for leaving a lovely review which is greatly appreciated. As described, Pendeen is an excellent spot where so many various locations can be easily reached by foot and car/local transport. Additionally we are blessed with an abundance of wildlife, and particularly this time of year schools of Basking Sharks can be observed form the local cliffs. Best regards Jon Property Owner

  Beautiful property, we all just felt relaxed and at home straight away. The hamper was outstanding, I have to say the best we’ve ever had as a welcoming treat, treats for our fur family too. Personally I think hampers give that added surprise when you arrive at your chosen holiday. It was lovely to meet Jon the owner, he made us all feel welcome and aware if we had any issues that he was only a phone call away. Thanks Jon for recommending eateries and places of interest. After a busy Sunday Jon arrived with freshly cooked scones along with cream and jam, a cream tea Delicious!! The cottage is a place we wouldn’t hesitate to return to, I’ve already recommended to other family members and friends. Hopefully be visiting again in the future. 15 Boscaswell Downs, you were amazing from start to finish. Thank you.

• "Spotlessly clean and very comfy bed."

  Kitchen exceptionally well equipped. It was a very nice touch for the owner to call round to welcome us and talk us through the heating etc - although there was a very comprehensive folder with all instruction manuals. Welcome pack not only for us but also for the dog. Lovely wild flowers on the kitchen table. Jon also popped round the next day with some lovely home made scones for us, which were absolutely delicious. Worth reading the visitor's book to see where to go and where to eat - although Jon had already given all this info during his introduction. Would not hesitate to recommend and would stay again.

  There's so much to mention about this spacious property that is great, so will highlight a few; superb lounge with log burner and generous sofas, super comfy beds, generous bathroom and shower, well equipped kitchen and a safe garden for dogs unless they are fence jumpers! It was good to have a parking space and we walked several times a day down to the coast, minutes away, and up the the higher ground, inland. Handy to be able to stroll to local pubs for food (all dog friendly) and a must try, Geevor Mine Cafe, 10 minutes away.

  Bright, comfortable, airy property in a quiet cul-de-sac, with just the sound of bird song. There are bus stops on either side of the road which we found were a great way of seeing the beauty of Cornwall that was all around. The hedgerows are truly wonderful at this time of year.

  No need to leave Pendeen village for good places to eat all within 2 mins walk Portuguese tapas at Maria Chica, North Inn serving the best pub food and 10 mins walk Geevor Tin Mine cafe with fantastic views straight out to sea. Discovered many circular walking routes back to the cottage, unspoilt coves accessible only by foot, Pendeen Lighthouse and Geevor all walkable. Short car journey to Penzance, Praa Sands about 20 mins away and The Lizard not too far, close links to A30. Good locality but equally good for a base to explore a wider area. Owner very helpful and always available to give assistance with local knowledge on hidden gems to explore. Thoroughly recommend and very sad to leave!

  We couldn’t have wished for more! There are plenty of things to see and do in the surrounding area, especially the beautiful beaches and the most amazing sunsets. If you are able to venture off the beaten track you will certainly find more of the area’s most natural beauty. We absolutely loved the stunning Portheras Cove which is about half an hour walk from Pendeen Lighthouse on the coastal footpath. It’s not the easiest of walks (especially with arms full of beach equipment!) but it’s well worth it! And we also enjoyed a lovely walk from Sennen Harbour towards Lands End where you will come across the RMS Mulheim shipwreck. A day on the open top coaster bus is also highly recommended, for which the bus stops just 2 minutes away from the property on the main road near the shop. (On that note, the shop being just 2 minutes away from the property is also extremely handy!) So much to keep the family entertained, and all topped off with cosy nights in this ideal homely property. We found that we were short of nothing in the kitchen and all appliances were easy to use. The beds were comfortable and we all slept very well. And we felt perfectly settled into the living room on an evening with a cup of Cornish Tea and shortbread biscuits! Would highly recommend this property to anybody looking to discover this beautiful natural area.

  The area is beautiful with lots of local walks over the top or to beautiful beaches and mines. The people around were very friendly, in the pubs and shops. The house was very clean, relaxing and conformable and had everything we needed for our week away. Two minor things that may be worth reporting but didn't detract at all from our holiday and time in the house: we could not get terrestrial TV as there was no aerial and we tried through the roku but it was very slow to connect to anything. Maybe we weren't doing the right thing but we had no instructions. We had brought our firestick though so could stream iplayer to watch tennis and women's footy - we didn't use the TV much really though. The double bed mattress was a bit uncomfortable and has a slight dip in the middle but we slept pretty well anyway. We really did have a lovely time in a great house and location and would book again without hesitation, so would like to thanks to the owner and housekeeper for their thought and care.

  Thank you for taking the time to complete your feedback following your recent stay at 15 Boscaswell Downs. We are sorry you were unable to find the instructions to operate the TV which are in the properties information folder. The TV is run from a Roku firestick, offering all apps and regular TV channels, this works extremely well using the super fast broadband that this property offers. Mattresses are a personal preference and we are pleased to hear that you slept well. Number 15 is a new property with us and the owner is keen to ensure all guests have the best time, had you contacted us on either of these points we would have been more than happy to help resolve them.
