"There's a lot of hype about places to go and stay, but if you want to get away from everything then this is the place for you."
It really is a tranquil and quiet place to stay, our westie Rodney got on really well with Archie, as I think every dog does. The best recommendation that I can say is that we booked for next year before we left.
Martin, thank you so much for the lovely feedback. We can't wait to welcome such lovely people back to Cardwen Farm Holiday Cottages next year. See you then! Siobhan x Property Owner

"My family and our cocker spaniel."
had a wonderful, very happy and relaxing week's stay in Erin Cottage in June. We really enjoyed and appreciated the comfort of the cottage, the cosy bedrooms, the well kitted-out kitchen and the spacious living area with ample wifi and TV streaming devices. And the view of the outside gardens, so pretty with the bonus of a self-contained and private barbeque area down some stairs on the right, The owner Siobhan was extremely welcoming when we arrived, and very helpful when we had a minor problem to resolve. And to top it all there were so many fabulous beaches right on our doorstep: including Looe, Fowey and Polperro. It was a holiday we'll always remember. We definitely will be back.
Oh Sue what lovely feedback with a great description. Thank you for taking the time. It was an absolute pleasure to welcome you here to Cardwen Farm Holiday Cottages and we greatly look forward to welcoming you back next year. Siobhan x Property Owner

"A lovely little place to stay."
I loved the beds they are so comfortable, which is very important to me as I suffer with a lot of nerve damage and arthritis. Everything was as advertised, a very comfortable place, with all home comforts. I would definitely stay again without hesitation.

The cottage was so central from Looe and Polperro. We loved the location, the bed was the comfiest we'd slept in, the owners were lovely, a welcome gift of a Cornish cream tea and milk, would definitely like to come back again one day. Fresh eggs from the chickens for breakfast. Thank you from all of us! Lovely visits out to Looe, Polperro, Polruan, Fowey, Lost Gardens of Heligan, Newquay and Plymouth by train from Looe Station

Good base to explore Cornwall from and comfortable place to return to at the end of the day

"We had a really lovely holiday staying at Erin Cottage."
It was very comfortable, clean and well equipped. Siobhan, the owner, was extremely friendly and helpful and I would have no hesitation in recommending it to other holidaymakers. It is located within easy reach of Looe and Polperro and there is a shop and a pub a fe minutes walk away. Thank you very much for a great holiday!

"There became a morning ritual of watching the local Barn Owls on the TV and counting the chicks."
Thank you for taking the time to leave us such positive feedback Barrie. Our resident Barn Owls, living in a special Barn Owl box with two cameras are a real hoot - (sorry could not resist) and have proved very popular with all our guests here at Cardwen Farm Holiday Cottages. So often we hear that families have played card games in the evening instead of watching normal TV as they can't bear to miss the owls! I do hope we get to welcome you back one day! Siobhan Property Owner

"This is a lovely little cottage, perfect location."
Sadly we had to come home a day early, due to an operation cancellation. This was a little frustrating because we were having the most perfect time. Siobian was so so lovely as were our neighbours, The grounds were so lovely for our dogs who also had the best time. Everything was just a stones throw away. The chickens were also very polite, they popped over for a chat one evening. The owners are big animal lovers and were so accommodating. The only down fall was the allocated parking spot as I had to pick up my puppy from the grass area to pop her in the car,(she doesn't like travelling!) and due to the parking position I had to step on the mini slate wall to get to the car which wasn't cemented or stable and I fell with her in my arms hurting my knee quite badly,(so dont repeat my mistake) apart from that they couldn't do anything more to make this little bolt hole perfect.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed our welcoming environment for animals. Erin Cottage has ample parking adjacent to the cottage, and guest do not need to park next to the low dry stone wall if they do not wish. Our dry stone walls are in keeping with the grounds -and many further dry stone walls - of our Grade II listed property. However, we will address the area further in order to ensure the safety of future guests. Property Owner

"We were greeted by Siobahn the owner, who was very helpful and friendly."
The cottage was very homely with everything you could need. The location was a great base to reach out into Cornwall and Devon. The chickens roaming around the yard were great to see and the video footage of the Barn owls nest was a treat. We will be back . Thanks

"Erin Cottage is part of a beautifully restored barn."
The decor and furnishings are very tasteful and the cottage is well equipped. The beds are extremely comfortable with food quality bedding. Siobhan and Archie (the dog) are very welcoming and friendly. We will definitely be back next time we are visiting our friends in the area.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us such lovely feedback Sue. We have taken great care to ensure all our guests have a lovely time, so glad that you benefitted. Look forward to seeing you again here at Cardwen Farm Holiday Cottages. Siobhan Property Owner

"I would put more but unfortunately on my second day there I was rushed into hospital where I spent the week, the owner bent over backwards to help my partner who despite everything enjoyed her stay in the cottage, yes we will be going back hopefully for a more relaxing time."

"The Erin cottage was fabulous, like a home from home."
Comfy clean everything that we needed for our week there. The family who own it was very very friendly, when we arrived they was there to welcome us, and tell us of things to do around Looe and where to eat. Would recommended to anyone who wants a lovely peaceful and restful holiday.
Thank you for leaving us such great feedback. We love to give all our guests a home from home experience and try to exceed expectations where we can. We now have a live camera feed from our resident Barn Owls that can be viewed on the TV's in each cottage.

The owners were welcoming and everything was beautifully tidy and clean.Although we did feel the double bedroom was slightly cramped We would stay there again.

"Absolutely beautiful cottage, felt like home as soon as we arrived."
Owners were really helpful and nothing to much trouble. Erin Cottage is delightful, but has everything you need. Grounds are kept beautifully maintained . Local shops are a couple of minutes in the car or a short walk and well stocked. Asda delivery is available here, we arranged for the morning after our arrival to save troubling the owners, no substitute which was great. We took our dog and I have to say he was welcome everywhere which was a welcomed suprise. Great places to eat, local fish and chips - Kelly's was great. For something special Talland bay hotel was amazing, fabulous views and free chicken for the dog was a lovely touch. Would highly recommend Cardwen Holiday Cottages, cottages to suit different holiday groups or needs or the fab farmhouse..all decorated beautifully, no dark and dinghy here.
Enjoyed reading this great review Jacqui, thank you. This area is great for dogs - so many business owners are welcoming dogs and going that extra mile to look after pawesome friends. I will always put maximum effort into looking after our guests and its not a chore to look after the beautiful mature gardens here. I hope we see you again at Cardwen Farm Holiday Cottages.

"We loved our stay at Erin Cottage."
The pictures don’t do the cottage justice which is finished to a really nice standard. Very clean and felt safe with the COVID procedures. Excellent location for Looe as well as Polperro and Liskeard, and further on to Fowey and St Austell. Siobhan was a lovely host and very helpful. Our children loved the gardens/grounds and in particular the chickens :)

About the location
LOOE
Polperro 5 miles.
Looe is Cornwall’s second largest fishing port and hence there is always a lively maritime bustle around the quay area of East Looe, which is connected to the quieter West Looe by a seven arched 19th century bridge over the River Looe. You can also catch the river taxi between East and West Looe. East Looe has narrow cobbled streets, twisting alleyways and plenty of tourist shops, whilst West Looe has a lovely outlook across the harbour. Looe’s viewpoint, Banjo Pier, can be reached from the quay and is a great spot to watch the returning fishing trawlers and look across the bay to Looe Island, which can be walked to occasionally at very low tides. The sandy Looe beach adjoins the pier and is very popular with families because of its safe shallow swimming and vast expanse of sand. There is also a great rock pool area at Hannafore that children will love. West Looe has a Heritage Centre that recently opened in the Old Sardine Factory with a climbing wall and a cafe and the delightful Kilminorth Woods have way marked walks through the majestic oak wood, rich in plant, insect and bird life. Apart from beach activities in this part of south east Cornwall, there are many mining remains on Bodmin Moor and in the Tamar Valley and much of the mining landscape has World Heritage status. This area of Cornwall has inspired writers, such as Daphne du Maurier and much of Bodmin Moor has inspired legends linked with King Arthur. There is much to explore in this beautiful part of Cornwall.
