Puffins Rest

• "Absolutely lovey property, spotless in every way, well equipped, lovely furnishings, bed was sooo comfortable, and our morning visitor delightful (our dogs first introduction to a cat that didn't run away)."

  We did not find it easily though, the address being "Goldsithney" is misleading as our SAT NAV took us to the opposite end of Gears Lane, which although it apparently goes right through, is only really passable in the centre by a 4x4. The best advice I would offer is to head through Marazion for the tiny hamlet of Plain-an-Gwarry and enter Gears Lane there. The property is at the back of the livery stables down the lane on the right, before you get to the old engine house chimney. We would definitely recommend.

  Thankyou very much for the amazing review so happy you enjoyed yourself and found our property comfy and relaxing , sorry you had bit of trouble finding us , you obviously didn’t get my directions I sent before hand sorry about that , the sat nav is not helpful unless you come up through Marazion glad you found us in the end , my cat is very interested in everyone that comes to stay ! Many thanks again Emma & Andrew Merry Christmas Property Owner

• "Such a lovely place, made extra special by daily visits from the owners lovely cat!"

  Very well equipped, a real home away from home. Follow the owners directions rather than satnav as we came in from the other side of Gears Lane and very nearly got stuck! Would love to return one day

  Thankyou both so much for the amazing feedback scores, so pleased you enjoyed your stay and my stupid soppy cat enjoyed your company too ! Be great to see you again one day Many thanks and merry Christmas Property Owner

• "Fantastic property in a great location for exploring Cornwall."

  Great variety of quiet footpaths direct from the property. Lovely spacious property, had everything we needed and welcome hamper was much appreciated. Great parking and the hot and cold water tap/shower for washing muddy paws and boots is a great addition. Loved the secure fully enclosed garden and seating options though weather didn't allow us to utilise this. Would highly recommend this property!

• "The only reason I gave 4 stars for the listing not 5, was that cottage is immaculate and peaceful, but wasn't easy to find using the instructions given."

  I would suggest that the post code is not used in the Sat-Nav. To find the cottage I would suggest that the you key Plain-An-Gwarry, Marazion (or try Tregurtha Downs Farm, Marazion) into the Sat-Nav. When you arrive in Plain-An-Gwarry, look for a lane opposite the houses, The lane has a "No Through Road" sign. On the left, as you turn into the lane, you will see a sign for Tregurtha Downs Farm and a smaller sign pointing to Puffins Rest. Then, when you come to the farm buildings on your right go through the 2nd gate, and past the buildings on your right. The cottage is tucked behind the buildings.

  Thankyou Keith for taking the time to write a review, we are really happy you enjoyed our property , sorry to here you had some trouble finding us , I will take your suggestions on board and review my directions for future guests , many thanks Emma &Andrew Property Owner

• "We only stayed at the cottage for 1 night."

  Although the property was absolutely beautiful, spacious and well equiped it was very remote with a 4 mile round trip to walk to the nearest pubs / restaurants. As our mobility was not good this was not an option. 2 points about the cottage ,the bed seemed rather small and we could only get BBC on the TV. I think this property would be more suited to people who like to do a lot of walking .

  Thankyou for taking the time to write a review , was disappointed to hear you found us to be remote for you , will definitely takes your comments on board Many thanks Emma & Andrew Property Owner

• "Very comfy with a large living space."

  Modern decor, all very clean and well presented. Secure garden perfect for two greyhounds to have freedom to potter about. Loo seat fell off but was fixed in minutes by a nice cheerful lady. A field walk straight from the door and only a short drive to shops and beaches.

• "A wonder recently converted property superclean comfotable an quiet."

  Great setting on a farm and livery stables. Has a lawn and, patio with outdoor furniture with the most wonderful full width sliding glass doors facing west. The owners have put a lot of thought into with many lovely welcome touches including 2 x towelling dressing gowns. Not many places have a bath and shower. Cant recommend highly enough.

• "We had a very enjoyable stay at Puffin’s rest."

  Thankyou for allowing us to bring our two dogs which was our main consideration when booking. The property is really well equipped and therefore allows a relaxing holiday immediately on arrival. Our weather was good so the sunny garden and excellent furniture was a real bonus. Our only criticism was the 4’ 6 “ bed being a touch small and firm. We did however get used to it after one or two nights.

  Hello Brian Thankyou so much for your positive feedback, we are very happy you both and your dogs enjoyed your stay , we have only been open 5 months so all feedback is very important to us , it’s a new bed so should soften over time but happy it didn’t upset your stay Many thanks Emma Property Owner

• "We were very impressed by the quality and cleanliness of the house."

  The welcome pack was much appreciated and the dog biscuits were a great touch, little things like that make such a difference. The location was ideal for exploring the far west of Cornwall, but away from the ‘maddening crowds’. The what3words address for finding you worked brilliantly.

• "We had a wonderful stay at Puffins Rest,the accommodation was first class and very spacious for a two person let."

  The weather wasn’t the best for our stay but we did go in April,but the outdoor garden space and the facilities would be something to enjoy in better weather. For us it was a little bit out of the way but that wouldn’t put us off returning for another stay.

  There also needs to be a sign once you reach the Livery stables to confirm where the cottage is. However, we had a super break in an amazing cottage!

• "Hearing the sound of horses hoofs walking past, the darkest skies you can imagine (at night, no light pollution), the place is very tranquil."

  Everybody we met there were very pleasant and happy to talk. Exceptional welcome pack, even included fresh milk in a jug which was a nice touch. Has all you will need for your visit, even a garden hose so you can wash your car down after the Cornish roads. Washing machine and dishwasher fitted, really nice induction hob and large fridge freezer for all your needs. Overall the pictures do not give it justice, we thought we were coming to a small shed like structure, but wow, when you walk through the front door, its totally huge, enough heating to heat the ice caps if you do get cold. And a private garden area large enough for many. the worse part for us was that we had to leave, we could totally have lived there. Perfect in every detail, and they paid attention to detail when they renovated it and kitted it out. am already in talks with the family who live close by to come visit again. travel lodge or premier inn?? no thanks, this will be the first place we look for now.

  Hello Marcus , Thankyou you so much for the lovely feedback , it’s great to hear you both enjoyed our property you were only our third guests as we spent all last year renovating it, it’s so helpful to us to hear you loved it , Thankyou for taking the time to write the review and would be lovely to welcome you and your family back anytime to Puffins Rest Property Owner
