Short holiday

I visit the place on my motorbike. The place was very clean and the owners, they are living next door, are very helpful and nice. If I have any questions they helped me out. Great place to stay. Nice area and the sea just a half mile away.

We were happy with the charming cottage and the seating area in the garden. Graham and Bette made us welcome and were friendly without intruding. We would certainly recommend the cottage but perhaps the uphill walk from Coverack should be mentioned although there is adequate parking near the beach.

Overall we were happy with our stay. The weather unfortunately wasn't great. The property was in generally a good state. Painting seemed fairly recent. The bedding and towels were of a good quality. Everything that we needed was provided. Graham and Bette were friendly hosts. We had a couple of issues. The timer for the water heating didn't always work. Sometimes we had to switch it on before being able to shower. I did speak to Graham about it and I would imagine that he has rectified that now. Although the decoration was good we were disappointed that the shower had a lot of mould around the sealant. But the shower was large which you don't often get in small property. A useful addition could be a soap dish which would save bending down for the soap. The property was a shortish walk down the hill to Coverack and an energetic walk back up the hill. We found that it was worth venturing down to The Lifeboat House restaurant.

This is our second time visiting this accommodation, which is lovely and clean and has everything required including access to the garden. Hosts Graham and Bette very welcoming. The location is excellent as a base for walking and visiting the local area and coves. We love sitting on Coverack harbour wall in the evening when the sun setting.

So relaxing!

Both Graham and Betts met us on arrival and made us feel so welcome straight away. Such a nice, friendly and helpful couple. The accommodation was perfect for us, it has everything we needed. Both very knowledgeable about the area and only too happy to offer advice to help make our stay more enjoyable. The bed is so comfortable too after a hard day’s relaxing!!

Reasonably priced ideal location

Lovely area to holiday in a place owned by nice people. Small house with pretty much what you need for a holiday base. Quiet location and rarely saw the owners. Check in and out very simple. We would have been happy to hoover up our own mess at the end!

Cosy Coverack Cottage

Had a brilliant stay. Bette and Graham are lovely friendly people. Had a few nice chats with them. Pity they don't live nearer as would like to have had an evening out, but 260 miles is a tad too far away. The Cottage is in a very tranquil location. Far enough from the road, to not hear any traffic. It had everything we needed for a week's holiday. Communication was very good before arrival and we had no trouble finding it. Would love to stay again sometime. Many thanks to the wonderful hosts

What an absolute gem, stopped at content farm for a week, the property is just of the main house of Graham and Bette but at all times it felt secluded and private. The property had everything you would need for a comfortable stay and for two adults very spacious,we add access to the garden which I found very relaxing Overall Graham and Bette are great host, their property content farm gets a massive thumbs up I would not hesitate to recommend this property and hopefully look forward going back for another holiday
