"Das Cottage ist teil einer kleinen Schaffarm. Die Besitzer sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Cottage ist sehr modern jedoch gemütlich eingerichtet mit jeglichem Komfort wie Wasch und Spülmaschine. Es liegt etwas abseits und der Weg zur Farm ist etwas rau aber wenn man eine ruhige Lage sucht ist man hier goldrichtig. Eine absolute Empfehlung wenn man das wundervolle Cornwall erkunden will und einen gemütlichen ruhigen Rückzugsort zur Erhohlung sucht."

"This is a great place to stay, look for deals, prices vary depending on weather you want to have Bar food or go full fine dining, Bar option is a good way to start. Self guided option is much more cost effective than a tour guide. The staff are very friendly and helpful 🙂"

Retallack Resort

10/10 Excellent
"Fantastic week away, room was spotless but the chairs outside the front could have done with a bit of tlc, cushions were green due to them getting constantly wet when it rains. Could do with some new ones and part of the stay if you use them take them back inside once finished. Decking over looking the lake was worn and needed a clean (found out this was being done on the day we checked out) Both the chairs and decking would of been a let down if it was in the summer. Apartment was great and comfy, dishwasher, washing machine and plenty of cooking utensils etc. Would recommend taking washing up liquid/dishwasher tablets as well as toilet roll as only one supplied, saying that a shop is onsite that has a good supply of items. Activities and swimming pool we didn’t use as had planned days out everyday and the weather was great for Sept/Oct. Will definately stay again."
