Cottage in cornwall? Recommendations?

[sophiechristophy]

Hi all,

Ok, i have family coming over from Australia in the summer, and we are thinking of taking a family trip down to Cornwall, renting a cottage all together. We will need at least 4 bedrooms, possibly 5, and we have a little baby. I was wondering if anyone had rented anywhere that they could recommend?

Thanks for any tips!

Not sure if it's what you're looking for but we just came back from a holiday here: http://www.coombemill.com/ it's a bunch of cottages on a little farm, we stayed in a small one but I think there are bigger ones too. Our 19 month old LOVED it

Hi - we've done an annual holiday to Cornwall with the grandparents for the past few years. All of these places are great - Court Farm cottages, Bosinver Farm and Tredethick and totally geared up for kids. If you're after a hotel Bedruthen Steps is great and The Rosevine is lovely but a bit pricey.

I second Tredithick although it does get booked up quickly for the summer holidays..

Definitely recommend Coombe Mill too [http://www.coombemill.com/] we've been going for a few years as our family holiday. Gorgeous properties; scandanavian lodges (we stay in) or cottages. The owners are brilliant, really helpful - really honest too, which I've never known anywhere else! Perfect for kids, with daily feed run round the farm, feeding animals, helping drive tractor, and play areas too. Everything you could want to borrow in reception, which saves a bit of room in the car..!

We stayed here http://www.spinneywood.co.uk/location.html a couple of years ago with australian in laws - it was great! otherwise you might want to try www.nicheretreats.co.uk - porthleven is lovely. The restaurant here http://www.trelowarren.com/ is great but haven't seen the accommodation...

We stayed at Coombe mill farm, lovely place. Great for kids and somewhere you don't actually have to leave all day. Super area, not far from Polzeath beach or Padstow town. We've been with my parents twice; first time we stayed in one large cottage, last year we got two cottages next to each other, for a bit more space!!! Brilliant babysitting service at Coombe too.

We have a cottage in Devon we're starting to rent out this summer. It has bundles of character, garden and 2 pubs within spitting distance. We have 4 children so you can be sure it's child friendly and well equipped. It's just of the A30 so convenient for Cornwall and Devon attractions. We'll offer a 10% Discount to anyone on the East Dulwich forum, just PM me if you're interested.
