Wonderful experience

Happys Wales
Review Submitted: August 28, 2008 Date of Stay: February 2008
We stayed at this beautiful property in February this year (2008) - what a wonderful time we had! The cottage is thoughtfully planned, particularly as there are additional facilities (kitchen, bathroom, bedroom) on the ground floor for those unable to use stairs. We particularly liked the sunny kitchen on the first floor and the small balcony which overlooks the typical whitewashed houses of this lovely fishing village - it was just how we'd imagined Cornwall - but better! My children and I just loved discovering Mousehole itself, but equally there are so many lovely places to see nearby. I would recommend Sennen Cove (nice restaurant on the beach) and of course, St. Ives. We had a car and had no trouble parking in the village (we noticed a regular bus service to and from the village for those wishing not to use a car). Will definitely be going back as many more places to see (intend to take a trip to Eden Project next time) and always nice to go back to this lovely cottage as our base - it's most definitely of 5-star standard - would certainly recommend.

Our great stay in Driftwood

Chrissie and family Berkshire
Review Submitted: July 11, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
This beautifully restored cottage was the ideal home from home for our holiday with my husband, daughter and baby grand-daughter. The quality of both bathrooms, the kitchen and furnishings was impeccable with close attention to detail aesthetically and for practicability. The travel cot was perfect and fitted well into the top bedroom but could be accomodated in any of the three bedrooms or even the living area. The position afforded ideal accessibility to the village amenities and the picturesque harbour( 1 minute walk) and coast. We loved the ice-creams with clotted cream, cream teas and pasties from the quaint cafe nearby. Superb restaurants and pubs nearby and ample parking in the village and by the sea.Highly recommended holiday home; would book again.
