Rose Cottage

Lovely comfortable stay, really well appointed accomodation a home from home.

Thank you for the wonderful welcome treats as well.

A lovely old thatched cottage with oodles of character.

A few quirks like faulty door bolts etc but who cares. Set in a charming garden and near a great pub it's convenient for the whole of the Lizzard. We plan to book it again .

Perfect property, great location, well managed and easy to find.

Everything at the cottage was perfect plenty of space for the 5 of us(wished we had brought the dog), would highly recommend. One note I didn’t see in the description that the property had a downstairs wc which was a welcomed addition

We had such a lovely break - the cottage was perfect for us and our dog.

The garden was beautiful and you can tell how much effort goes into that and the property itself. Definitely would recommend (and have already). The welcome tray was the best we’ve ever had and so thoughtful. Thank you Rose Cottage - we are so glad we found you!

Loved the setting and the kitchen was very convivial for our meals.

Beds really comfortable. Shower a bit of a tight fit but super hot water all the time. The WiFi code didn’t work, but we had our own EE email and password so it was OK, stopped us being on our iPads all the time and chatting, walking and visiting the local pub which was ace and so is the Shipwrights down at Helford. Happy to return. Thankyou for the wonderful goodies that were left, kind touch.

A wonderful place to stay if you want peace and tranquility,, on arrival we found a wonderful welcome pack and the cottage was lovely and warm, even a Christmas tree all ready for us,, the housekeeper Jenny does an amazing job of keeping this place slick and span and is always available for any queries Would definitely recommend and will certainly be back!

!

We were very grateful for the welcome treats when we arrived, thank you.

The cottage was a lovely place to spend a few days in and explore the area from. I would recommend that either a photo of the stairway or some text in the info to say that there is no hand rail for those who have mobility issues. The other info which needs updating is the pub a few minutes walk away is closed for renovation for some time ahead, as does the pubs own website!

We had a lovely week at Rose Cottage which is spacious, warm, well-equipped and in a gorgeous semi-rural location.

The garden is generous and looks out over the countryside. There is good off-road parking and the garden was secure for our large dog. Lots of lovely small seaside villages to visit and countryside/coastal walks all within easy driving distance. There are many public footpaths around the village too. Would definitely recommend this as a destination. The only slight drawback is if you are over 5’10 as there are a couple of low doorways and beams (mentioned in the property description) The dog and I were fine but the husband suffered a couple of times!!! All in all, a great holiday and we would stay at Rose Cottage again.

Clean, spacious, well equipped, pretty cottage with a lovely garden.

A kind welcome note and tray of goodies added to our pleasure at returning to Rose Cottage.

An absolutely fantastic cottage.

Beautiful garden and great facilities. Only slight issue was the overflowing drain which produced an unpleasant smell - particularly after emptying bath. Other than that perfect ! :)

A lovely comfortable, cosy and well equipped cottage with amazing views, great for a relaxing break away from daily life in a very quiet location on the edge of Manaccan village.

Enjoyed a number of lovely walks from the front door and time just watching nature and enjoying nothing but the sound of birdsong. Will definitely look to return in the future.

Been before so knew what to expect,, amazing welcome pack by Jenny the caretaker, who answered a couple of queries instantly!

Bit of a problem vacating property by 9am but not impossible I spose Beware,, the post code on the welcome sheet is incorrect so make sure you use Google map post code, not the one on the sheet!!!

Beautiful cottage in a lovely area, everything we needed was supplied, the welcome tray was the best we have had in any cottage we have stayed in.

Fantastic walks right from the cottage with a pub within a 2 minute walk from the front door.Couldnt have wanted a better cottage to stay in the garden was superb, we definitely stay here again without hesitation, 10/10

Rose cottage was clean, comfortable, sweet smelling, and very welcoming.

Thank you Jenny. We had a great stay, exploring the local beaches and creeks. The welcome tray was outstanding, the garden lovely and the blackberry laden garden hedge a real bonus! We also loved the artwork throughout the cottage. Thank you.

Wonderful cottage in a picture perfect setting.

Excellent garden for an aged dog. Surrounding area full of wonderful wild flowers. Good proximity for east Cornwall gardens & walks.

Really is a picture book cottage.

The creaking floors and rattling windows all add to the character. The kitchen equipment, towels and bedding were of excellent quality. The welcome pack, including fresh flowers, was exactly that. Jenny was available promptly to assist with queries and problems. The only negative was the poor quality of the lounge seating. That and the outside furniture were past their sell by date and need replacing. It should also be noted that there is no longer a shop in the village. There are a couple of lovely walks from the village, and it is in a great location to tour the rest of the Lizard.

Lovely thatched cottage, very comfortable but squeaky floorboards so can't sneak around or hide.

Details don't mention downstairs toilet - this was a pleasant surprise on arrival. Close to local pub and lovely walks around coast and to Helford. Welcome tray was another surprise and much appreciated. Good value.

Overall the cottage was warm, lots of hot water and we liked the character.

The beds were really very comfy with lovely Egyptian linen. The kitchen and front room were both spacious and comfortably fit the 6 of us, and our dog. The bath was a welcomed addition in the very spacious bathroom. We also welcomed the mince pies and wine on arrival and being allowed to check in earlier, as we had a lot of stuff (Christmas). Unfortunately, there were a few things that for us, let the cottage down, which was a real shame. The shower leaked through the floor boards, into the kitchen below. When we contacted Jenny, she was aware of it - this was pretty astounding - to let a property with a known issue. We understand cottages have character, but having 6 people showering, you loose your sense of humour mopping it up on a daily basis. Not everyone likes a daily bath. The cottage was pretty dusty, especially the carpet in the front room. Being that we were at full capacity, and it was Christmas, furniture was moved about to allow space for kids to play and for everyone to sit around together for the TV and board games. This moved a lot of dust about, and unfortunately my son suffers with dust allergies. You couldn't open the windows in this room as they were locked with a window lock key. For 6 people, there needs to be more glassware and mugs. We used all the plates, but some of these are too big and do not fit in the dishwasher. The kitchen was a nice airy space but in the cold Cornish winter the windows were incredibly difficult to open (again this was mentioned to Jenny). The back door (patio) was warped and difficult to open/lock and definitely needs some attention. A check out of 9am is incredibly early and something I had missed upon booking. We therefore left a day early, so we didn't have to get up at dawn to leave at 9am. Overall, we enjoyed having a change of scene as a family. We had some lovely walks to Helford Village. The cottage is in a little village, which was really quiet. Unfortunately, I feel it was overpriced for the issues mentioned above, as it wasn't as relaxed as we had hoped and therefore we wouldn't stay again.

Loved staying here.

..again! Comfortable and warm (October), as only a 'thatched' can be. A BIG plus is that we love this area and the walks.

This was probably to most lovely place I have ever stayed in.

From the look of the place, to the gorgeous welcome gift from the host.... it was really second to none. I want to thank the owner for letting us share that piece of joy. Warm, clean, comfortable and everything you needed for your stay Some of the local roads were a bit hair raising, but we found the ideal way in and out if the village. Just want to say sorry... we left the light on, but the rain had truly come in, and we were in the car. Wonderful stay, would recommend to anybody. Xx

Just returned from the most perfect weeks holiday.

Rose cottage was an absolutely idyllic Cornish cottage in breathtaking surroundings.

Rose Cottage is a true gem.

So homely and a beautiful location. There are houses nearby but you wouldn’t know it, it’s so peaceful! The house is well equipped with plenty of space. We had to make contact about a few small things and nothing was too much trouble to get it all sorted (thank you to the lovely Jenny). The garden was perfect for our family including our dog. We will definitely be returning, we love this part of Cornwall. The only slight downside is the 6pm check in and 9am checkout but perhaps these have been imposed since the pandemic.

We had a perfect stay!

Thanks for the warm welcome!! If we come back, we will stay again in the Rose Cottage! Thanks!!

Rose Cottage was a lovely place to stay at Christmas.

It looked very welcoming when we arrived after dark, with the hallway lit up and a pretty Christmas tree to greet us, plus a nice gift and welcome message awaiting us.The cottage itself was charming with it’s thatched roof and low beams (not so good if you’re 6ft 3!). It was clean and well-equipped, comfortable and warm. I would definitely recommend Rose Cottage.

Absolutely wonderful cottage.

The views are stunning. Well equipped and Jenny the house keeper ensures it’s immaculate. Very dog friendly with a beautiful garden. We’ll be returning! Thank you for an amazing break!

This is a lovely cottage we would recommend but if you don’t like driving on small lanes and I mean small it’s not for you.

Had a great time

Very pretty cottage in a very beautiful part of the world.

The garden is stunning with exceptional views and the cottage really benefits from the double doors leading out from the kitchen. We spent most of our time outside. Inside, be prepared for a typical old cottage, low ceilings and creaky floors, but this all adds to the experience. That part of Cornwall is simply stunning, you can walk from the cottage to Helford (and get the ferry over to Helford Passage), St Anthony and Flushing. We took a kayak and used it several times. It’s well placed for drives to Sennen, Kynance Cove and Portcurno, the most beautiful beaches in Cornwall. All in all a lovely week.

Beautiful chocolate box cottage with stunning views.

Easy check in and hassle free. Did not really understand why Covid would cause the check in time to move back to 6pm, surely you clean the cottages anyway? and check out by 9am. Seemed excessive and basically cuts a day off the booking.

It was a beautiful cottage, the location was superb and we had a fantastic holiday.

Thank you!

Cottage was fantastic.

It has everything you need, very clean and accommodating. The caretaker left us scones and wine- lovely touch! Very central to the area and a lovely little village. The pictures don’t do the cottage justice, it absolutely gorgeous. I will definitely be making a return.

Rose Cottage is a magical gem.

Peaceful and cozy. Sunrises over the hills were a real highlight. The house is full of character. Even more beautiful and charming than the pictures and very quiet. Loved the fireplace and the tub. Absolutely spotless when we arrived with gorgeous welcome treats. Extremely helpful host! Manaccan is also charming. We felt very welcome. It was the perfect getaway and we can't wait to come back!!

This cottage has everything you need to enjoy your stay.

Nice welcome of cream team and a bottle of wine. Could not fault this cottage at all. Thanks

A great little cottage and very helpful housekeeper

It was a bit more remote location than I thought but it was fine and worked for us.

Lovely community village and made to feel very welcome by the locals.

This was a wonderful old cottage that was very comfortable and well equipped.

Its located in a lovely friendly village ideal for a relaxing holiday or as a base for days out. Would recommend highly

Cream teas and wine upon arrival.

Thanks Jenny. A lovely lady.

Beautiful, comfortable and well equipped cottage in a great location - thanks

The cottage was fantastic, everything you could need.

Stunning cottage,stunning location,for us, slightly remote as in amenities.

We don’t like to drive too far to be able to experience anything. Overall a fantastic place and very highly recommended. THANKYOU for the great welcome.

Very relaxing.

Extrem Calm region (Culdrose Airfield is not very active). Way to next shop for "unexperienced one-lane drivers with only right-driving experience " small adventure for itself ;)

Very comfortable cosy cottage fabulous area of Cornwall and very easy booking process the only point I would raise, and this is not a criticism, is the lack of recycling boxes/bags.

However after over 10 holidays in different cottages in Cornwall booked through different companies I find this is a common problem so maybe all you holiday companies should get together and find a solution.

The cottage was warm, welcoming and had a lovely ambience.

The cream tea, bottle of wine and coffee were very welcome. We had very good weather & managed a few uses of the picnic table. The garden is very pretty & the view over fields gave it an open feel. The beds very comfortable with very lovely bedding. A very comfortable lounge & the kitchen diner spacious & very well equipped. The New Inn, 2 minutes walk, is community owned & does food on certain nights, it is very friendly. We had very good weather & didn't need to travel off the Lizard, lots of walks, beaches,coves the river. I am sending a separate email to you as there are a few comments I would like to make to help improve the experience.

Lovely cottage in an excellent location.

Only inaccuracy was that the village shop has now closed. Nearest one around four/five miles away. Lovely welcoming touches with scones, jam and milk. Would definitely consider returning
