The property has every comfort of home; quaint with many thoughtful and tasteful decorations and additions. The cream tea was a thoughtful touch and delicious. The hosts are friendly , helpful and charming ; while allowing guests privacy to relax. The cottage is warm and inviting with quality household items for guest use. The garden is delightful with incredible views and comfortable seating. A great place to unwind in peace. It is hard to find any fault in such a well presented and delightful holiday let.

- Helen (10/5): A little piece of heaven that we will return to - Hosts so friendly and informative.

Log burner was exceptional on the chilly evenings . Nothing
- Martin (10/5): Fantastic Stay 100% recommend - Lovely accomodation
Peaceful and Cosy
- Chris (10/5): This is an amazing place to stay. -
- Ed (10/5): Peaceful Christmas retreat - Warm welcome, the hosts Barbara and Richard were lovely.
The accommodation was clean tidy and had all the facilities we wanted. We were asked if we wanted any decorations up for our Christmas stay and those that were put up were tastefully done with a hint of timelessness.
Set in beautiful rural countryside the Dovecote is a peaceful & tranquil escape, expect hooting owls, mooing cows & bird song.
Lots of local information on hand if you wanted to venture further afield.
- trout (10/5): Enjoyed every minute . Completely rejuvenated - It was very cosy , had everything I needed and was perfectly placed for a very relaxed time away from it all . The hosts are very accommodating and make you feel right at home Nothing
- Amanda (10/5): A Little Slice of Paradise - Peace and tranquility. Beautiful surroundings, comfy bed. Wonderful bath and big log burner.
- Mark (10/5): The stay, the property, the location, the hosts absolutely perfect - We loved absolutely everything about this property. The location was absolutely perfect so quiet exactly what we was looking for and such a beautiful pretty location. The amenities were fantastic everything you would require and as for the hosts they were the nicest people ever could not do enough for you and just to add to the greeting experience we was left some homemade scones with jam and cream in the fridge. Full sized fridge/freezer, washing machine, dishwasher and so much more. The property has central heating but also has a log burner to add to the experience not that we needed to use it as the property was warm enough, beautiful setting with stunning views, such a stunning property will definitely been returning. If you are looking for peace and tranquility in a beautiful setting this will not disappoint you. Did not like having to this beautiful property.

- Robert (10/5): A WONDERFUL COUNTRY RETREAT, A REAL "HOME FROM HOME". - A wonderful comfortable country retreat with a superb outlook from the kitchen/lounge/terrace to the rear of the property overlooking the garden. We used the property as a base to tour Cornwall/Devon which was perfect for us and it was great to return and relax in the Evening. The Hosts, Barbara and Richard are very welcoming/friendly and made us feel at home during our entire stay. They really have made the Dovecote a real "Home from Home" and we have to compliment them on their attention to detail. If only our weather on the run up to Easter wasn't so variable! The farm location is somewhat remote so be prepared to drive a distance for shopping etc.
- Sharon (10/5): Exceptional - Peaceful, quite. Just amazing. Couldn't have wished for anything better.. Couldn't wish for better hosts Barbara & Richard are amazing. I would actually pay more than what we paid to stay

- Squires (10/5): Great stay! Warm, peaceful and clean. - -Really lovely location, very isolated and quiet.
-great views
-nice and cosy during our winter stay, the log burner is great!
-host is very kind and welcoming -not a direct complaint but as the area is nice and isolated, the track to the cottage is slightly rough and bumpy. Not really an issue, just don’t bring your brand new Ferrari!
- Agnieszka (10/5): Cosy cottage - I spent Christmas 🎄time with my family in this cottage. We had everything that we needed for our Christmas dinner. The host Barbara was very friendly and helpful. The cottage was very cosy, warm and clean. None
- Emma (10/5): Exceptional -
- Emma (10/5): Thank you for a wonderful few days. We really enjoyed our stay - Beautiful place nice and easy to find very cozy and warm home from home sale
- Enrique (10/5): Exceptional - The pictures are good and they still don't make justice to this magical place. It was amazingly calm, comfortable and our host was charming. We will be returning, thank you again 🙂
- Keith (10/5): 'Hygge HQ' - go prepared to be relaxed! - The Dovecote is a beautifully equipped accommodation and the host has made it a 'Hygge Home' (if you dont know what Hygge is a book in the accommodation will explain it!) Strangely the fact it is remote is attractive but the drive is nearly a mile long and I'm glad I didn't take my classic Morgan car! But.... once there the solitude and views are sublime (even if it was rainging when we went)! Just fill up the car with those food and drink items as you will be happy to stay put anyway.
- Alan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Stephen (10/5): Beautiful,relaxing stay - The location and the cottage was beautiful. The proprietor had prepared fresh scones,jam and cream. The proprietor was very kind , amenable and nothing was too much trouble.
If you need to relax, get your head in a good place. Nothing, all excellent
- James (10/5): Just perfect. 13/10 - A true peace of heaven, we didn’t want to leave .
Barbara and Richard were the perfect hosts. Nothing
- Martina247 (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect stay at the Dovecote. The cottage is a little gem and the highlight is the terrace, where you can sit with a nice cup of tea and enjoy the amazing view.
The cottage is fully equipped (including also washing machine and dishwasher) and very cosy. It is situated in a very good location which allows you to enjoy some tranquillity but also to explore Cornwall.
The best part of our stay has been to meet Barbara and Richard, the greatest hosts we had during our trip through England. They have been since the beginning so kind and helpful and made us feel so welcome. Because of them our stay at Dovecote was even nicer.
We are sorry we just stay here for 2 days. If you have a chance, stay a bit longer, to truly embrace this place and what it has to offer.
- C (9/5): A very special place to escape to for tranquility. - Beautiful setting & walks. Particularly nice and helpful owners.
Lovely little cottage tastefully furnished throughout with all you could possibly need.
Large double bed very comfortable and a perfect haven for a couple.
- Benjamin (10/5): Exceptional - Location, Hostess Barbara and Dovecote were all exceptional. Very relaxing beautiful place to stay with some wonderful nature sounds (owls) in the night to help you drift off to a deep peaceful sleep.
- Meg (10/5): Heaven on Earth! - Magnificent hosts! Barbara and Richard made me feel like family and were so generous in sharing their countryside with me. The animals on the property are delightful to watch, as well. The Dovecote is beautiful inside and out and the views are incredible. This has to be one of the most beautiful places on earth and I cannot wait to return. Not applicable. It was wonderful.
- Phil (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing design and amazing host thank you
