Riversdale Cottage in Wadebridge, Cornwall, is a well-situated property with a cosy atmosphere, modern kitchen, and comfortable main bedroom.

Guests that stayed at this property said
The cottage generally receives positive remarks for cleanliness, with guests noting it as spotless on arrival. However, there are instances of oversight such as dirty dishes and a grimy oven, which suggest room for improvement in this area.
The location is highly praised for its convenience and proximity to Wadebridge town centre, local pubs, and the Camel Trail. Its central yet quiet positioning makes it an ideal base for exploring Cornwall.
The main bedroom is frequently described as lovely and the beds as comfy, contributing to a comfortable stay. However, some guests have found the double bed uncomfortable and the smaller bedrooms less accommodating for adults, slightly detracting from the overall comfort.
Facilities are generally good, with a well-equipped kitchen and pleasant outdoor patio. Nonetheless, unresolved issues such as missing keys and a fixed stair gate pose inconvenience, and some guests have reported a lack of basic accessories and maintenance concerns.
Guests have mentioned a nice welcome pack and the provision of clean linen and towels, which add a thoughtful touch to their stay. It should be noted that such gifts, while appreciated, may vary and are not guaranteed for every stay.

The oven and tins need to have a deep clean. The kitchen was really well stocked with good quality equipment which we appreciated apart from the cutlery which was small and cheap! A larger, more cosy rug in the sitting room would have been nice as the small piece of carpet there kept sliding around. Overall the cottage had everything we needed for our stay and felt comfortable and homely.

Very central location. The property was very well equipped to cater for all needs. The courtyard although only small catches full sun and contains a lockable storage unit suitable I think for bikes. There is no parking but car park is only metres away and very reasonable price of £5.00 a day . I pre booked mine with Just Park App rather than faff about daily.
