Comfortable cottage
Very comfortable stay- everything working fine, nice beds, well equipped, great views. Wi-fi / phone signal not very reliable but it doesn’t matter, it forces you to get away from it all. Lots of places nearby to visit and the kids liked the local history and mysteries.

Lovely cottage and location
We had a lovely stay at Ladydown Cottage, very peaceful and the cottage was equipped with everything we could need. Wonderful views of the moor and our two year old loved watching the sheep, cows and ponies from our window. Great location allowing us to explore beautiful Cornwall. Would definitely like to return.

Charming Location
We enjoyed a peaceful and relaxing break in a wonderful part of the country. Cottage was equipped with everything you might need and a cream tea was waiting our arrival. A lovely touch. The local pub was within easy walking distance and is well worth a visit or two!! We awoke most mornings to the sight of wild ponies walking past the window! All in all a wonderful break. Thank you 😊

fantastic
nothing to say at all apart from the majestical bodmin moors outside door and windows and the frequent mists that roll over it early mornings and late evenings or the free roaming animals that leave my new forest experience in the dust or maybe the nearby stream/river where small wild trout leap from the waters? This was a dream for me and taking the time to visit charlotte dymonds memorial and attending the court case experience at bodmin regarding her trial literally took me back in time! All this was enough for me but add the beaches and coastal scenery whats left? I WANT TO LIVE HERE FOREVER!!! THANKYOU XXXX

Comfortable cottage in attractive setting
We are a retired couple with a dog and we enjoyed our stay very much. Ladydown cotttage is an L shaped bungalow that appears to be a barn-conversion set in the corner of the neat and tidy stable yard. It has a small enclosed courtyard garden of its own. The property is right on the edge of Bodmin Moor - the cattle grid onto the Moor is almost outside so there is a rumble when a car goes over. Our dog startled at the noise at first but soon grew used to it - and the traffic isn’t very frequent. The window in the living room looks onto the moor and sometimes the sheep came right up to the window. Our dog paid no attention but it’s something you would need to bear in mind if you had a dog who reacted to livestock (cattle and ponies as well as sheep are on the moor.) There are several other cottages in the yard, but Ladydown is very private. The cottage is clean and attractively decorated. It has comfortable beds, a good shower and a well-equipped kitchen - even a dog’s water bowl! Wi-fi reception is a bit patchy but then it is a remote location. The cottage is a good base for walks on the moor as well as drives to both north and south coasts. The centre of the village, with shop and pub, is about a ten minute walk or very short drive.

Beautiful cottage with amazing views
First time in Cornwall and the location was amazing, we couldn't have stayed in a nicer location. The cottage was perfect, everything we needed and more. Ross and Brenda were lovely they both greeted us on arrival and a lovely touch waiting in our cottage was the cream tea. They had all the information of the cottage and the location available in the welcome packs, very well thought out and informative. Lovely to sit and watch the ponies on the moors going past the window. The Old Inn just down the road is definitely worth a visit, amazing food and very friendly. Thank you for eveything.

Absouloutely fantastic
The cottage was lovely it had everything we needed. Very clean and comfortable. We had two children and two sausage dogs who loved looking out the window watching the horses and cows walk past. Brenda and Ross had left a lovely cream tea for our arrival which was a nice treat after a long journey from surrey. I highly recommend the riding stables across the road again lovely staff. We will definitely be returning.

Excellent holiday accomodation
Me, my wife and 12 year old daughter stayed at Hallagenna. Our cottage was very pleasant. Nice and clean on arrival, a very comfortable bed and a lovely outside area so we could enjoy a drink after our daily excursions. WIFI inside the cottage was intermittent, but outside at the picnic table you could get full reception so no real problems at all. Ross and Brenda were perfect hosts. They introduced themselves on arrival and informed us that if we needed anything to just let them know. The fact that we didn't need to bother them the whole week shows that everything was catered for within the cottage. Thank you for everything. Alan

Ein Traumurlaub für uns
Wir haben eine tolle Woche bei Brenda und Ross verbracht. Das Cottage war sehr schön und mit allem ausgestattet, was man so braucht. Es liegt direkt am Ladydown Moor und somit sehr ruhig. Wir haben uns besonders über den Cream Tea zum Empfang gefreut und werden bestimmt noch einmal hin fahren.

Sehr schönes Cottage
Wir, ein mittelaltes Paar aus Deutschland, haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Besonders gefallen hat uns das Wohnzimmerfenster mit Blick auf das Bodminmoor, wo immer wieder verschiedeneTiere, Pferde, Schafe oder Rinder grasten. Das Haus war sehr sauber und alles in einem ordentlichen Zustand. Gartenmöbel mit Stühlen oder vielleicht eine Liege, anstatt der Picknickbank hätte uns noch gut gefallen, da es für uns nicht so bequem war, ohne Lehne draussen zu essen. Alles in allem zu empfehlen.

Sehr schöne Ferienwohnung
Kann das Haus nur empfehlen. Schön, gemütlich und sehr sauber, in einer sehr schönen Gegend gelegen. Schafe und Ponies hat man direkt vor dem Fenster. Von dort können alle Ziele in Cornwall gut erreicht werden. Einzig der WLAN Empfang ist nicht besonders, aber von der Terasse geht es gut.

Sehr schönes Cottege mit Blick auf das Bodmin Moor. Ruhige Lage aber die vielen schönen Ausflugsziele in der Nähe sind mit dem Auto schnell erreicht. Das Haus ist liebevoll eingerichtet und die Ausstattung ist sauber und gemütlich. Zur Begrüßung stehen leckere Scones bereit, die Besitzer sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.

Stunning and uncompareable location in the nature
Brenda and Ross do provide a stunning retreat in the middle of a marvelous Bodmin Moor, undisturbed by any cell phone (very basic Internet included, dependet on the Cottage). Our dog loved the walks in that great nature. The weather does give many different aspects to the Moor. Free ranging sheep, cows and horses, being your direct neighbours, will say hello, mostly in the morning. Little old villages and Cornish narrow roads do add to the typical picture of that area. The location do provide a good starting point to boths sides of the coast (northern and southern) including sandy beathes (e.g. Par), the rocky coast line (e.g. Port Isaac) and Cornish fishing villages like St. Ives (ca. 1h by car). We've enjoyed our stay and would stay there again. Anna, Stefan and Laica
