Miss Nicholls
Lovely cosy and comfortable cottage. A great view from the living area. Only a 3 minute drive to the camel trail.

Mr Johnson
We loved these beautiful old Cornish buildings with modern interiors. The king sized beds and large comfortable sofa made sure that we were comfortable day and night. The beautiful setting in the Camel valley with amazing views made everything perfect. Local shops within a mile or two supplied our daily needs. Nearby moorland walks and 30 minutes drive from some stunning, dog friendly beaches and beautiful Cornish towns were the icing on the cake.

Mr Humphries
We had a wonderful stay in Goosehill. The cottage itself is clean and very well appointed while the location is perfect - within 20 minutes drive of numerous amenities and attractions yet remote enough to feel like a secluded escape. The countryside around the property is absolutely beautiful, as is the setting itself, while Jane and Ian were friendly, attentive and generous hosts. We very much enjoyed our time here and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone considering a stay in the area.
