"Absolutely lovely cottage - property owner and family were so kind and helpful , everything we needed good location for touring around the garden was so nice and they made me feel like my dog was no trouble at all running around enjoying the space."
We will definitely be back, one small suggestion is an outdoor box in the colder months for dirty boots to go in save keeping in kitchen but this is just a suggestion.

"We had a lovely week staying in The Granary."
Everything that we could have possible wanted was supplied for a comfortable stay.There was even a delicious cream tea on arrival! Ulli and lauraine made great hosts and are very informative. We especially liked sitting in the lovely garden early evening enjoying the the views and tranquillity around the pond, after having a full day exploring cornwall. Would definitely recommend.

"This is a beautiful and cosy place to stay."
The owners made sure everything was perfect. They are always on hand, but everything still feels very private. The shared garden area is stunning. We loved that it gave our eldest son the opportunity to make a friend (even for a short while), without being in a busy holiday park.

Lovely hosts who left really great information about dog friendly places to go. Really top holiday let actually, I'll definitely book again we loved it! Lots of things to do in the area, Tintagel and The Eden Project were our highlights along with the scenic beauty of Bodmin Moor. Thanks for the lovely stay. Debbie, James and Poppy.

"A fabulous place to stay."
The Old Granary was an amazing place to stay at.
Both the owners were so polite and extremely helpful at all times. Our 2 year old cocker spaniel loved the gardens? Where she was allowed to play freely !!
The owners let us keep the gates at the entry so enabling us to have piece of mind that our dog wouldn’t escape or get run over if she was off the lead.
Will miss the place immensely but we will be back l
Thank to both of the owners xxxx

"Had a lovely week (apart from weather 2nd half, but it didn't stop us)."
Beautiful property, friendly owners. Unfortunately I didn't have a pen to write in the visitors book. Loved the cream tea on arrival, very nice! The location is more or less 'middle of nowhere' yet (Big)Tesco is an 8 minute drive.
Do read the folders, full of fantastic info including dog friendly attractions, pubs etc. Really comfortable bed!.. and if a clear night (Had a few despite the weather) I would sleep with curtains open, no light pollution-bonus.
Beautifully kept garden, Koi carp in the pond, an absolute idyll.
Many thanks to Lauraine & Ulli. There is so much more to the cottage and location than is advertised.

"Had a fantastic stay as a family of 2 adults and a 6 year old, in one of the 3 holiday cottages at this location."
The owners were very welcoming, recommended places to eat and visit. The location was secluded but on the doorstep of good, fast road links. The setting of the shared garden was tranquil with big fish pond and fruit trees, and we felt safe leaving our child to play with other children who happened to stay in the adjacent cottage. Lots of toys for the kids, sandpit and gorgeous Wendy house. The parking right outside was a godsend. The cottage was quiet at night and the beds were comfy. The shower was powerful and hot water was never a problem. The kitchen was extremely clean (like new) and well equipped with items you don't usually get for a holiday rental e.g pizza cutter, knife selection, foil, pegs. The fridge and freezer were big enough for what we bought.
We managed to get WiFi strong enough for streaming services. It was a nice touch having the shared utility room with board games, body board, wind breakers available to borrow.
We visited both north and south coastlines and it was a handy location for both. Thank you so much. We can't wait to stay again!

"The cottage is comfortable, clean and well-equipped; there was always lots of very hot water and the shower ran consistently."
The fridge is very small and we couldn’t fit everything in that we wanted to. The small lounge is cosy and soon warms up with the electric fire. The sofa and armchairs are comfortable and better than those we find in many rental properties. The bed is comfortable and we slept well. It was good to have a CD player as we didn’t want to watch TV all the time. The Wifi signal was very weak and inconsistent such that the connection was often dropped, though this was less of a problem in the bedroom. However, the data speed was reasonable. The cream tea on arrival was much appreciated and the jam was delicious.
The location is delightful and peaceful and the garden with its huge pond is beautiful and a lovely place to sit when the weather is nice, which it was most of the time. Access from the nearby A30 is quick and, although the last half mile is a single track lane with only one passing place, we only once encountered another car. Arriving on the A30 from the east necessitates a right turn across the busy dual carriageway and similarly if one wants to travel west after leaving the property; the road is often very busy and we had to wait several minutes for a gap in the traffic on some occasions.
We had an excellent lunch at the Eliot Arms in Tregadillett and a good value steak dinner at the Archer Arms in Lewannick, to which we walked despite the long 1 in 7 hill (total walking time about 30 minutes). Tuesday is their steak night and, although it was quiet, we were told it’s advisable to book.
There are plenty of nice places to visit by car and the Cheesewring, easily accessed from Minions on the east flank of Bodmin Moor, is a remarkable geological feature worth seeing.
We had an excellent week with good, dry weather and loved the practical but peaceful location.

With only 30min to the northern coast and 45min to the south, you can always tailor your day out and not go very far to explore new things every day. We had a lovely welcome from the owners and some tasty scones, some milk and butter in the fridge as well to get started.
