The location of the house is luxurious. The house itself has not got any luxury, but the kitchen and the bathroom are excellent.

Very Comfortable Cottage - Wonderful Location
The cottage is exactly as described, very comfortable and well-equipped. The welcome basket of "goodies" was a nice touch. The location is really spectacular - right on the cliff top overlooking the sea, remote but still within walking distance of the village. I was a little concerned about the drive along the muddy track to the cottage, but even I managed it in our little Hyundai i30!

Coastal Delight
A beautiful, well equipped cottage in a stunning location. Perfect for exploring the coastal path and the local beaches. The hosts were extremely helpful and even replaced the TV within hours when it developed a fault. I would highly recommend this property to anybody looking for a comfortable rural getaway set in stunning scenery.

The property itself is amazing and has everything you need for a lovely holiday and I cant fault it. The only down side wasthat there were quite a few dog hairs in the lounge but we found the hoover and it was soon resolved.

Amazing location
We loved the cliff top location and views. A unique experience. Lovely walks straight from the cottage. The cottage was the cleanest place ever! So close to so many great beaches and little villages. Really enjoyed it.

The property is well appointed, warm and was comfortable for the three of us. It is ideally for walking the coastal path that is close-by but not too close.. The location provides fantastic views out to sea from the garden. Due to constraints of the time we ate in most evenings and found the kitchen was well equipped for our needs. Lizard village is an easy walk (can be quicker than driving if the cows are in the lane).

Traumhafte Lage und schönes Cottages
Wunderschöne Umgebung die unmittelbar zum Wandern anregt. Das Meer direkt vor der Haustür. Es war einfach toll in dieser Umgebung zu joggen.

Cornwall at its best
Perfect location directly at the Coast path with an amazing view. Approaching the house is quite challenging as the way down is very narrow and steep. However the owners inform you on this upfront and its obviously the price you have to pay for staying so close to the sea. We enjoyed our Holidays a lot! Thanks!

Sofort verliebt!
Dieses Haus und vor allem seine Lage sind ein absoluter Traum. Man möchte einfach nur im Garten sitzen und die grandiose Aussicht genießen. Das Haus ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet. Die Betten sind bequem und in der Küche ist wirklich alles vorhanden. Vor dem Haus führt der Küstenwanderweg vorbei, sodass man direkt loslaufen kann. Lediglich die Anfahrt war etwas abenteuerlich, aber letztendlich doch zu meistern. Wir haben uns sofort in Bass Point Cottage verliebt und kommen hoffentlich nochmal wieder.

Der perfekte Urlaub
Wunderschönes und super ausgestattetes Haus in atemberaubender Lage. Vermieterin ist sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich, alles toll. Super Betten! Aber Achtung: Autos mit Sportfahrwerk haben keine Chance, den Weg zum Haus zu schaffen. Die Fahrt ist auf der letzten Meile ein Abentfurr für sich mit Schlammpiste, Schlaglöchern, Kühen auf dem Weg… Mit etwas Vorsicht schafft das aber auch ein voll beladener Skoda Octavia…
