Reviews on cleanliness are mixed, with several guests finding the cottage clean and well-supplied, while others reported issues with cleanliness, such as dust and mismatched crockery. The property seems to be generally well-kept, but some guests felt it needed more thorough cleaning.
The location is highly praised for its beauty and convenience for exploring Cornwall. Guests appreciated the proximity to Liskeard for shopping and the ease of visiting nearby towns like Looe and Falmouth. The remote setting by a river added to the charm, although some found it too quiet.
Guests generally found the cottage comfortable, with good-sized bedrooms, comfortable beds, and a homely atmosphere. The presence of a dehumidifier suggests some issues with dampness, but overall, the comfort level was deemed satisfactory by most reviewers.
Facilities were well-received, with a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable furnishings. However, some guests noted the need for maintenance, such as broken blinds and toilet seats, and issues with Wi-Fi connectivity. The lack of a clubhouse on-site was mentioned by a few guests.
While many guests mentioned thoughtful touches by the owners, there were no specific references to gifts. Therefore, it is not possible to score this category accurately, and the score is set to null.

Well equipped kitchen. All clean and tidy. Beds were comfortable. Plenty of jigsaws, puzzles, dvd's etc. Only bugbear was connecting to the WiFi. We had to ring up to get a code. We were given a list of seven to try. None of them worked. On second time of trying we had three to try. They didn't work. On our second day we had a further two to try and were successful with one of them. We would certainly stay here again and definitely recommend it to others.

No1 The Heathers had everything we needed for our stay. Will definitely recommend to friends and family and if in the area, stay there ourselves again.

Sitting outside having breakfast next to the stream was a bonus. The only downside was the photos were dated as they showed a bath and not a shower, not many places have baths.
