The cottage is lauded for being well-equipped and tastefully decorated, with all the necessary amenities for a pleasant stay. One guest noted the absence of an egg poacher, but this is a minor point in the context of otherwise glowing feedback.

It was everything we could have hoped for and more and you have really gone the extra mile to make it a home from home. The cottage is ideally situated away from the bustle of Tintagel, but only a few yards from some stunning walks and views and the excellent Bossiney Tea Rooms. The wine, cream tea and milk were much appreciated after a long journey down from Essex.
