Boar's House

Lovely relaxing place and so quiet day and night, comfy chairs and bed.

Great to have hot water all the time and shower worked well. We appreciated the owner coming to say hello one morning and enjoyed also saying hello to Mollie the Collie next door who was exceedingly well behaved! Only criticism is that the outside of windows needed a clean but it did rain the week before so that was probably understandable, inside of the house was spotlessly clean.

This place is a little bolthole to heaven.

Ideally located for access to so many wonderful places but remote enough to feel secluded and absolutely relaxed. We had an amazing holiday and would book again in a heartbeat.

Second time at Boars House, lovely peaceful setting, got everything you need, lovely touch a plate of fruit and cream tea awaits on your arrival.

Thank you Mike .

We have been to the Boar's house on a number occasions and have always been very satisfied with the property.

The Boar's house is cosy, well equipped and in a peaceful area. Any problems have been attended to quickly by the owner.

The accommodation is well equipped and situated in a rural location with distant views of Mount’s Bay and St Michael’s Mount.

The property is in good repair and the facilities first class.

Fantastic location, a lot of wildlife, central to most locations.

My partner and I had a really relaxing time. On arrival there was a cream tea and loads of fruit. Definitely would go there again.Mike was a good host and full of stories quite amusing. ANDY

The Boar’s House is perfect for a couple or family of three who want a holiday that is away from the Cornwall holiday hotspots and has a beautiful view over fields, moorland and the sea beyond.

Nature is all around you; rabbits, fox, buzzards are regularly seen. If the weather is bad, the house is ideal to keep warm and watch the weather pass through, as it surely will. Well provided kitchen and distance from shops and pubs means the house is best suited to those who want to self cater and can plan meals ahead. There are good supermarkets in Penzance less than 20 minutes drive away. Bedrooms are comfortable and with good bedding and in such a quiet area, a good night of sleep is assured. You would undoubtedly need a car to stay here, but there are plenty of stunning walks from the house too. The circular route to see Greenburrow Pumping House, men an tol and the nine maidens are our favourite places. We have been returning for well over 10 years and this property has never disappointed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Boars House.

It's very comfortable and in a lovely location. We could have done with a few items in the kitchen namely a decent chopping board, a wooden bread board and a few more small teaspoons. Other than that, we had everything we needed for a lovely week. Thank you!

Comfortable welcoming cottage.

Peaceful and quiet. Far from the madding crowd. We noticed the toilet roll holder was coming loose at the wall. Side tables in the lounge would have been useful. Lounge sofa to low and a struggle for an elderly person to get up from. The TV was too small and apart from that we had a pleasant break.

We had a wonderful week.

Great property, lovely location, fabulous views. Scones on arrival, warm and snug. Owner was wonderful.

We have just returned from Boars house and now have time to reflect on our stay .

It took us a while to locate the property as it was very dark in our arrival , but once located we were happy. We entered the property to find a cream tea for two waiting on the kitchen table , with a lovely note from the owners. Also fresh flowers and a large fruit bowl . There is ample parking and the views are spectacular. At night it is so dark that I was blown away by the visibility of the stars . Lots of places to visit within easy reach . The owner was very helpful and we will return at some point for another break . Would recommend Gordon & Janis

This is excellent accommodation in beautiful surroundings.

Well presented and with all the facilities

We absolutely loved this house very peaceful location lots of wildlife about in the fields.

Not far to get to penzance and other locations near by. Can not recommend this house enough. Fresh fruit bowl and cream tea upon arrival and being able to sit in front room with the French doors looking at the views on a hit day ... top notch.

A wonderful stay.

Fantastically presented cottage in a beautiful location. Couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Really lovely property in a quiet relaxing location perfect for a small family.

Picnic table and loungers in the garden are perfect for when the sun is out. Just a couple of minor things - mattress in the main bed is very very firm and a softer one would be nice but of course this comes down to personal preference. Couldn’t figure out how to turn off or turn down the heated towel rail in the bathroom so it was always really warm in there 24/7. If the weather had been hotter this could have been a bigger problem. At least it was useful for drying out some wet clothes! The cream tea was a nice touch and the coffee maker came in handy. Overall we had a great time and we have already re booked for next year.

We absolutely loved the Boar's cottage - super view, comfortable with all necessary facilities, and the wifi was great as little mobile reception nearby.

We watched rabbits and other wildlife, enjoyed the birdsong, and popped into Penzance which is easily accessible for groceries.

Very comfortable, clean and well equipped cottage with good parking.

Great location quite but close to facilities of Penzance, A30, supermarkets and railway station. Easy access to North coast, St Just and Cape Cornwall. The owner, Mr. Williams is always helpful and is willing to sort any issues promptly. Many Thanks Michael and Patricia.

Boar’s House was a dream to stay in.

Immaculate, beautifully converted, idyllic location. We were able to travel easily to the north coast and into Penzance and the views from the house are fabulous. Things that are important to us: comfortable beds, cotton bed linen, good shower, relaxing seating in the living room, French doors, good storage in the kitchen, light filled uncluttered interior…you can tick all these! Friendly and accessible owner Cant recommend it enough.

Absolutely loved Boars House, clean, well equipped, peaceful, stunning location, lovely touches like cream teas on our arrival, every thing was as it said in the listing, highly recommend it.

Bed very comfy also shower fantastic. Thank you.

Cream tea and bowl of fruit was a lovely greeting, Warm and cozy with amazing views, everything you need for self catering, perfect position to be able to go out walking and seeing Cornwall's History, and only a couple of miles from each coast.

Route Directions spot on.

Considering the inclement weather the property was very cosy.

Lovely, comfortable, private, cottage.

Felt very welcoming. Uninterrupted views over the fields to St Michael's Mount on clear days. Mike, the owner, introduced himself and was very friendly. We had a lovely holiday, thank you.

Excellent property.

Very clean and great selection of kitchen equipment. Lovely shower too. We prefer firm pillows and the current pillows are extremely soft/flat(probably need changing). Otherwise the cottage was perfect and so very peaceful, great for a peaceful get away from everything

This is our 3rd stay at Boat’s House.

Absolutely love it there, perfectly quiet, peaceful location. Great cottage with everything we need including garden. Friendly neighbours. Excellent location for getting out and about with kids - you’ll need to have a car!!!! Liz x

Set back in a secluded countryside environment away from the hustle and bustle.

The cottage has a warm welcoming atmosphere. The views are stunning; the countryside, St Michael's Mount and sea views in the distance. We really enjoyed our stay. Sad to leave but wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. The welcoming complimentary Cornish cream tea was a pleasant start to our stay.

We very much enjoyed our week in the Boar's House.

A place in peaceful surroundings, beautiful countryside and distant views to St Michaels Mount. Comfortable accommodation with character and all you need for your stay. A welcoming cream tea on your arrival along with a nice bowl of fresh fruit, fresh flowers also (a nice touch). Bunny rabbits munching the lawn in the morning and evening were nice as was the glimpse of a barn owl flying across the field behind the cottage. Would I recommend a stay? Yes!

Superb cottage, thank you for the excellent directions from Penzance.

The cottage is a hidden gem, the perfect place for a getaway with stunning views.

We couldn’t fault the lovely cottage it had everything you need and more.

After a long journey we were welcomed with a fresh bowl of fruit and a cream tea from Mike and Jennifer. Mike called a couple of days after arrival to check everything was ok which was thoughtful. If you are looking for somewhere with peace and tranquility then this is the place to be.

Great cottage had a lovely stay

We had a wonderful stay at Boer's House.

The cottage is a beautifully converted and extended barn, with the original granite stonework intact and beautifully exposed in some rooms, including the bathroom. All very clean. The underfloor heating provided constant warmth, the interior design is tasteful and comfortable, and the location is stunning, with views as far as the eye could see over St Michael's Mount and Mounts Bay, over to Cudden Point. From the house, Penzance in the South, or St Ives in the North are accessible within minutes. We were also very lucky, with some brilliant sunshine and turqoise seas. Above all, Mike Williams, the owner, couldn't have been more helpful and caring. He even offered to pick us up in case we were stuck, when we briefly broke down on the A30, but were fortnuately able to continue. He then booked us into his local garage during the week. It couldn't have been more perfect. Thank you so much!

Very impressed.

Was not expecting the cleaning supplies etc…. We brought bin bags etc ….. everything was already there! The house itself was amazing. We arrived and there was a tray of scones, jam and clotted cream in the fridge! Lovely flowers on the kitchen table. The bed was so comfortable, lovely crisp bedding. The shower was a dream. The owner, Mike and Molly his lovely hound were informative about the area. Steered us towards more interesting places. We had a lovely time. It was too short. We have had friends ask about this place from our pictures on Facebook. Thank you, Mike and everyone. We will be back

Beautiful cottage ,with stunning views ,we had a wonderful time ,everything you could want in the cottage ,warm and cosy ,lovely garden to enjoy when the weather is sunny ,so peaceful and quiet ,we met the owner Mike and he was so helpful and kind .

Thank you ,Anne and Phil .

Another lovely holiday in your peaceful cottage Thank you

A lovely property in an excellent location

another lovely holiday at the Boar house!

Very clean and comfortable with great views. Thank you

Absolutely amazing place loved every minute of our stay, arrived to a lovely cream tea and fresh fruit bowl in the living room.

Mr Williams came and introduced himself and was very friendly will definitely be back until he foreseeable future. Thank you

Thank you for another lovely week at The Boar's House.

The house is of a high standard and extremely clean and cosy. Plenty of everything needed for our stay, as 'Take a ways' are not an option, so home cooking is easy. We love the peace and quiet and the night skies. The views are amazing over the fields with Mounts Bay beyond. The surrounding countryside is really great for walking, throwing in so much history. The locals are great to chat to, a feeling of inclusion. Clotted cream tea on arrival is a nice touch. Thanks very much to you all.

We arrived at the cottage and we were welcomed with a cream tea awaiting and and array of fresh fruit in the lounge

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location.

Very clean, spacious and comfortable. We had everything we needed in the well equipped kitchen. The afternoon tea and fruit were delicious, thank you so much.

to arrive and see superb views open door to be greeted by a cream tea this and the peace and quiet made for a great holiday thank you

This was the second time we have stayed at Boar's Cottage and it won't be the last.

Lovely cottage in the most beautiful location. Wonderfully quiet, so peaceful. The cottage itself is very nice, comfy beds, well equipped kitchen and lovely touches such as vases of flowers, cream tea and a fruit bowl. Owner is also very welcoming and friendly, can't rate this cottage highly enough.

We loved Boar's House.

The house and it's location were even better than expected. The house was more spacious than we imagined and the views were beautiful, right across to Mount's Bay. It was lovely that we could walk up onto the moor from the cottage, to standing stones and stunning scenery. It was in a very peaceful setting with only the birds to disturb us :). The owner was very welcoming and helpful when we needed him.

Exceptional cottage can not fault anything ideal even has a 7 pm fix visit as wildlife photographers we managed to get some awesome photographs

Fabulous, comfortable little cottage.

Loved the location and outlook, would definitely return.

A lovely quiet very comfortable and clean cottage.

Great views. Have already rebooked! Thank you for the cream tea and fruit.

Stunning views.

Cosy cottage. Spotlessly clean. Arrived to scones and clotted cream, perfect! Cooking was limited due to lack of equipment, so may I suggest a few things: Large pasta cooking pot, a few more oven dishes and a few more oven trays (there was only one). It was great that things like tea towels, dishwasher tablets, tin foil, teabags were provided, quite unexpected! On the last day the hot water and heating went off, which was quite annoying as we'd wanted showers before the long drive home. The cottage is situated conveniently, so easy to access supermarkets. We ate at some fabulous places: Talay Thai, St Ives, Queens Head, Botallack, Logan's Rock Inn, Treen, Birdies Cafe in Hayle and The Honey Pot in Penzance.

We left a note for the owners expressing our appreciation of their property.

A snug and comfortable cottage for our January holiday break.

Warm, quiet, and with excellent fibre broadband.

There were only 2 small quibbles that I had with the house.

1. You could do with buying a new toaster. They don't cost much, a wee bit annoying having to keep lifting and looking to see, as it was only toasting one side. 2. Is to have some sort of shelving in the shower, so you have somewhere to stand your shampoo, shower gel.

The place was beautiful and on arrival a cream tea was ready and waiting.

Stunning location, lovely views of St Michaels mount on most days. Facilities were good, beds were comfy and the outdoor space was brilliant for our 4 year old to around in.

We enjoyed our stay at Boars House.

Not easy to find on first arrival, but the Owner’s directions help a lot. A really peaceful & relaxing setting. On arrival the Owners had provided a welcoming Afternoon tea & a bowl of fresh fruit, which was a nice touch. Thank you. There was lots of interesting places to visit nearby & we particularly enjoyed St Michael Mount , & The Minack Theatre, definitely worth a visit!!

New mattress needed and some cushions for the kitchen chairs would be nice but I must say the cottage is lovely and so is the owner but as I suffer with a bad back these above did give me some issues.

We do enjoy the peace and quiet the cottage offers and I would recommend Sykes and board house to my friends and family so thankyou

Boar’s house was very cosy but unfortunately didn’t sleep to well maybe the mattress needs updating.

Clean and tidy everything we needed was there,possibly a lick of paint but that’s not to say we didn’t enjoy our stay at Boar’s house and would have no worries about rebooking in future.

Lovely cottage.

We particularly appreciated being to keep the cottage warm throughout. Excellent walks from the door. A highlight was spotting a short-eared owl nearby. Away from the tourist routes,lovely and quiet with lots of archaelogy and beautiful beaches nearby.

Very well equipped and cosy cottage with excellent views across the surrounding area and out over Mounts bay.

The cottage was nice and clean upon arrival. Also the owner popped by in the week to check all was well as well as leaving a cream tea and fruit upon arrival to the cottage. Finally it was nice to have a washing machine in the boiler room to use during the week.

Would be nice to have a washing machine.

Loved our recent stay.

Boars House was beautiful and in such a lovely location. It's so peaceful and relaxing. A gorgeous cream tea was waiting for us on arrival along with fresh flowers and fruit which were such lovely touches. We met the owner Mike who was able to offer us local knowledge. Would definitely recommend however your own transport is needed.

Fantastic cottage, one of the best we've stayed in.

So peaceful and just the best views on a clear day. Great location for exploring the local area too. We'd definitely book again.

Beautiful cottage ideal for a family of three.

The owners kept Cornish cream tea which was a lovely touch of hospitality. The scones were the best we had in Cornwall. We really enjoyed our stay here, thanks

Lovely little cottage, in a fabulous location.

Lovely cosy cottge with great views, can ring Owners for advice or if you need help.

Lovely welcome with a Devon cream tea

Lovely little cottage with everything we needed for the two of us.

Very welcoming on arrival and the owner is friendly and helpful. Would definitely return, this is a great base to explore the rugged coast of West Cornwall.

Very comfortable cottage in quite location not too far from the falcilities of Penzance and many good walks close by.

The Cottage is equip with all you will need for a self catering. The owner is very helpful,welcoming and happy to resolve any issues.

Peace and quiet.

Lovely views including of the sea and St Michaels Mount

Absolutely loved our fortnight at The Boar's House, Tredinnack, The cottage is very well equipped with everything you could ask for, and beautifully furnished.

The owners' care and attention is there in every detail - the cream tea on arrival, the tiny vases of fresh flowers in every room, thoughtful selection of guides and leaflets to help make the most of the area and the personal contact - Mike dropped by a couple of times to make sure everything was OK and to advise when laundry would be changed and gardens attended to. He also gave us good tips for local walks, direct from the cottage. The location is breathtaking; distant views of Mounts Bay, moorlands and tin mines abound, many Bronze Age and Neolithic sites. Easy to reach both the North Atlantic coast - St Ives, SW Coast Path Zennor to Gurnard's Head and the South - Newlyn, Mousehole and Minack in one direction and Penzance, Marazion (St Michael's Mount) and Porthleven in the other. Great variety and choice of restaurants to be enjoyed. Totally exceeded our expectations.

The Boar’s House is a cottage to be returned to time and time again!

Our second visit was equally as good, if not better than the first and we look forward to returning another year. The tranquility of the location is astounding and well worth the 8 hour drive to get there! The cottage is very well laid out and equipped and the owners have considered everything.

Boars House Penzance is a beautiful peaceful cottage surrounded by amazing scenery.

Close enough to all major villages and attractions, you may want to visit. Everything required to make the cottage a home from home is included. It’s a lovely peaceful place to return to after a full day of visiting, swimming, surfing, walking, paddling, eating and drinking etc etc. The owners left a cream tea, elderflower drink & flowers for our arrival, which was greatly appreciated. Would highly recommend you book.

Boar's House is a lovely little cottage, well equipped and comfortable and I think even better in real life than in the photos.

It is in a very quiet, rural location with fantastic views across the countryside to the sea and St Michael's Mount. It's in a great location to explore Cornwall from, being close to St Ives, Penzance and lots of wonderful beaches. On arrival, we were greeted with a delicious cream tea left by the owners, as well as a bowl of fresh fruit and bottle of juice. Would definitely recommend and would also consider a return visit.

We have stayed at The Boar’s House eleven times, so far.

Proof that we really appreciate what this property has to offer!

The cottage was very welcoming and homely to us, It was best cottage we had peaceful and quit is what we like as my 9 year old preparing his grade 5 exam in music, beautiful views around Penzance sea side and St Micheals Mount, and closed to Penzance shops, we have a lovely a blissful holiday at The Boars House .

It delightful meeting the landlord checking us Mr Williams again many thanks! Definitely we stay again at The Boars House and 100% we would recommend the cottage to our friends. Mr&Mrs Rigby Matlock, Derbyshire

The best cottage we have ever rented.

Wonderful view to St Michaels Mount over farmland. Close to Ding Dong Mill ruins do steeped in history. Friendly but never intrusive farmer / owner. Many extra and unexpected little extras including a cream tea waiting us on arrival, fresh flowers and a bowl of fruit. A real rural escape but near to all the must do places in West Cornwall.

The cottage was lovely: a beautiful quiet location, utterly peaceful, and 30 minutes bike ride from the lovely rugged North Cornwall coastline.

Very nicely decorated and all provided for. And a very kind owner who even offered to pick me and my bicycle up from the station in his pick-up, as it was raining. Much enjoyed being there and hope to go back sometime.

The cottage was lovely and we loved the location.

The peace was beautiful. Mr Williams was v. friendly and we had a good chat with him. However, as the cottage is fairly off the beaten track we thought it would be hepful to have a sign (stating the name of the cottage) which can be seen from the road. (ie at the end of the drive instead of halfway down). Although we were using sat.nav. we lost our signal near to the cottage and drove past twice! Also, a night light (so as not too bright to keep you awake) would be useful to light the staircase as the toilet is downstairs and is a bit tricky going downstairs in the middle of the night. We are at that age! We would definitely visit again.

Extremely quiet & peaceful - a real chance to relax and unwind.

Owner very friendly and thoughtful. Flowers, a cream tea and a bottle of locally produced apple juice to welcome you.

This was our 10th stay at The Boar’s House, which speaks for itself!

Mr Williams and family couldn’t be more helpful. The little stone cottage has been fitted out to an acceptably high standard. The situation is secluded with wonderful views.
