Tranquil

We have just spent May bank holiday at Grooms cottage-wow what a place. We took our two dogs with us. One is just 14 weeks old, we needed the break after breeding puppies earlier this year.The cottage was safe and secure, just like it said.The property is set in a rural location however you are just a 30 minute… give or take a few drive away from main attractions.This was more beautiful, relaxing than we could have imagined.We hope they will allow us back.Thank you so much, just what we needed.

Lovely cottage

Nice little cottage located at a short driving distance from several touristic places. We enjoyed our stay and it is great if you travel with dogs. We missed a stair gate to make the place a bit safer for babies. Overall,a nice place I would recommend.

Bathroom is not really a bathroom. Owner calls it wet room. Basically shower, toilet and sink all in one. When taking a shower the whole floor gets wet. Sitting on toilet your face touches shower curtain. Mold growing on kitchen walls. Small size but ok. It definitely is in a rural area. A little scary driving.

Serenity

It was a peaceful stay, just what we needed quiet, it was nice to wake up to animals and our daughter really loved the sheep and ponies. Would love to go back in summer as they have very nice clean beaches.

Lovely property in idyllic setting waking to sunshine and birdsong!

Great location as off the beaten track so quiet with no road noise and very convenient for lots of beaches around Padstow but also not far from Fowey, Polperro and Looe. This is on a working farm so expect the sound of sheep and tractors and enjoy the beautiful countryside.

Charming farm cottage

We had a lovely time. It is on a working farm so be prepared for smells and very narrow roads. We had several encounters with tractors on single lane tracks.

So Relaxing

We had an amazing time. We had a couple of dilemmas which threatened our entire trip, but the owner and the farm owners were more than happy to help us with which we were so grateful for. You are never more than 30 mins from any beach or activity worth doing. Was so nice to go to sleep listening to the owls and waking up to the cows.

This could be a lovely cottage if a bit more care & attention was put into it, no wardrobes, requires some maintenance & a good deep clean, no effort from the owners to even say hello

Properly relaxing break with the dogs

What a lovely, peaceful, relaxing place. This was a perfect break for us - the kids loved being on a farm, meeting the horses and watching out for wildlife, and we loved standing on the balcony looking out at the lush view. But most importantly it was somewhere we genuinely relaxed with the dogs, possibly for the first time on a holiday, so that made it for us. We’re always concerned our two setters will find a gap in the garden fence, and our day trip options are limited, particularly with our nervous dog. But it’s clear that dogs are more than welcome - with the exercise field, the kennels, and a relaxed attitude to them being in the house - so we we’ll most definitely be back! Thanks so much for everything Caroline :-)

Beautiful setting

This is a beautiful setting and a beautiful building. Sadly as you are aloud to take your pets here some people have not been very respect full and as a result there is lots of dog hair around, such as in between the mattress slats and under the cupboards and sofas. The pots and pans are very warn and need replacing. Overall this would be a super place if it had a little TLC. Please don’t be swayed by my review visit and make your own mind up, we would definitely love to revisit if these things were sorted out. Many thanks for a great stay at a great price.

Absolutely fantastic stay

We stayed at Keepers Cottage for 6 days in early October. The cottage, although very compact, has everything you need, and more. The hosts have really thought of everything when it comes to facilities for your dogs. The secure exercise field was an absolute favourite with Nougat and Sully, our two bull terriers, they were just so excited to go in there each morning, and last thing each day. Its also great having a safe enclosed area outside the front of the cottage for them to do their business. The day kennels, although we didnt use them, are an added bonus. The cottage is situated in a great location, so many dog friendly places to visit, all around 30 minutes drive, some of the roads going out of the property are very narrow but asits Cornwall,its kind of what you expect. We visited a few beaches, the Eden project, and the lost gardens of Heligan and Lanhydrock House and Gardens, all of which are dog friendly and we would highly recommend. Caroline left us a nice bottle of red and some scones,on our arrival, which was a nice surprise and greatfully received. We will definitely be back as this has been a wonderful break for both us and our dogs.

Short break

Keepers cottage was lovely. It is absolutely ideal if you have dogs. There is a large enclosed area where your dogs can run plus there are spacious kennels if you need to go out and leave your dogs. We didnt use this as we took our dogs with us but it was great to have this option. The bedroom, toilet, shower room was downstairs and the living room was up the stairs. There was a lovely balcony leading off from the living room where you could enjoy the views, unfortunately we didnt get much use out of this due to the weather not being too good but would be amazing on a nice day/evening. We were visiting the Eden project and this was a perfect location, only a 25 minute drive. I would highly recommend this accommodation. Caroline and John give you your privacy but aren't far away if needed. Thank you so much for all your help with our issues.

Not what we expected

Property was nice and small. Didn't like the stairs as we also had a dog that didn't like them either. Log burner was dirty and rug in front of it also. Settee had a broken arm. Dog area was a nightmare and the lake stank. Dog got plastered in mud and I did ask if we could hose the dog off as states there was a hose available and needed to ask. Nothing available, so had to take dog in cottage filthy. Definitely lots of noise as a working farm. Never met the owners and very disappointed with that. Won't be back.

Cosy & out of the way

Stayed in many rentals over years. We like rural and quiet. Rural it is, quiet mostly. But as advertised its near, very near (outyour window near) to a working farm. So do expect noise. We didnt mind this personally at all. Nor, did we mind the route in and out, some may. Property itself is cosy. Living room really is the kitchen. You could noy call it open plan as small. One of the smaller that we stayed in. But again not a spoiler as we do tend to be out much of the day, as most will. 2 x adults was enough though. With children I would expect it could be quite cramped. Wet room. Is a wetroom. But does the job. Shower weak but does the job. Main bedroom. Quite difficult to move about. Get out of bed and your face is on the wall. But we slept well. Door needs adjusted at bottom as hits floor. Nice views from Balcony which is very nice in the evening. All in all, we have had a great time, and the cottage provided a nice base whilst moving around. Jons fish and chips were amazing. Do try.

The cottage was really lovely, and a wonderful place to stay. We would highly recommend it. We loved being on the farm and my children loved the animals, especially the dogs and horses that would come to say hello. We loved the open plan cottage. The only thing I would mention is that I am not a confident hill driver - coming from Essex - and while I was aware of the steep road from Withiel, I wasn't aware of just how steep and single track it was. However, we found other roads to come in on and leave on and it was absolutely fine, even though it took a little bit longer.
