Fab house in a great location

We had the best time in the farmhouse. The location was superb, so many amazing places to visit within a 15 min drive of the property. The weather was mixed but on the rainy days we had plenty of entertainment options with all the different games provided in the house.

Lovely cottage!

We really enjoyed the cottage. The location is great for walks and some main tourist attractions in the south. We were missing a loungeset so you can relax outside in the lovely garden (there is an iron two set + an older bench).

Beautiful countryside cottage

Lovely cottage in a quiet Cornish village. Beautiful, peaceful garden. The cottage is very well equipped with everything you could need during your stay. Close to Penzance, Newlyn & Mousehole. Lots of places to visit & plenty of places to eat, just a short car drive away. Nice walks in the vicinity of the cottage. Will definitely stay in this cottage again.

Excellent stay at lovely cottage

We stayed in this cottage for a week in October, from the moment you walked into the porch area it had a homely feeling, the cottage as a whole was very clean and had everything we needed for an easy relaxing stay. The garden was brilliant for our boys and well maintained. Location wise is set on the edge of the village in a very quiet location but within easy reach of the local bigger towns. Would definetly recommend staying here for a peaceful country Cornish break

A wonderful stay in Cornwall

We had a lovely time at Newington Farmhouse. The cottage was cosy, comfortable and well-equipped. The garden was a delight, with great views across the fields to Mounts Bay. Sancreed itself is a fascinating village; as well as some lovely local walks it is also an ideal base for exploring the West Penwith area of Cornwall with its stunning coastline and hidden coves. Our two cats enjoyed staying at the cottage as well. We would definitely choose Newington Farmhouse again.

A week at Newington Farmhouse

A lovely house in a nice position. Great garden which should be secure for most dogs and good views down to Mounts Bay. The house is comfortable with everything you need and the bed is comfy - don't know about the other two bedrooms as they were not used!! Only a short trip by car to the shops - main supermarkets in Penzance - about 15 minutes with "local" shops in Newlyn.

Peaceful holiday cottage in perfect location

We had a lovely stay at Newington Farmhouse in April - the cottage is well equipped and comfortable, and in a perfect location. The majority of the popular local attractions are less than 20 minutes away. The surroundings were very peaceful, and full of wildlife. One point worth noting is that there are a few steps and walls in the garden which may be less suitable for very young children, but this is a minor point. Overall, very happy thanks!

Cosy pleasant cottage with lovely garden

Great cottage and garden. Well equipped. Internet good. Pity local walks were overgrown but hopefully local council will sort that out. Needed to use the car a lot to get anywhere. Highlight was The Minack Theatre which is nearby. Weather unfortunately mixed but can imagine if good would be wonderful.

An oasis of peace and countryside charm

This property is just wonderful - it's cosy, so comfortable, beautifully decorated and with all conveniences. The garden is lush and secluded, and was also secure for our wee dog. The views to the sea in the distance were fabulous, and the abundance of wildflowers around us was lovely. The house is situated in the countryside - BUT - is incredibly close to all the best places on the Lands End penninsula: Sennen and Porthcuno beaches, Mousehole, Penzance, St Michael's Mount, St Just - all just a very close drive (less than 20 minutes). You can enjoy these places and then get away from it all to the farmhouse. My only downside was having to come home to London afterwards! Can't sing enough praises - enjoy yourselves here!

Amazing!

The Farmhouse is absolutely stunning, it had everything we needed for a more than comfortable stay. Beautiful surroundings and we wish we had stayed for 2 weeks as there was so much to do! We visited Mousehole, St Michaels Mount, Penzance, Trewidden Gardens, Sennen Cove, Lands End, Marazion but there was so much more to still see and you can easily go into a second week of trips. I highly recommend you stay at this property, not only a home from home but it was one of the best holidays I have had in ages. Thank you Lindsay for a A++ accommodation, I am sure we will return one day!
