“A washing machine would have been useful based on a 2 week stay.”

“Splatt House is stunning.”

It’s a beautiful quirky cottage. We ate outside in the splendid new veranda everyday. Cleanliness of the cottage is excellent & the welcoming homemade cakes were an added bonus & delicious!

“This must have been our 5th stay and our 6th week in Splatt.”

Phillippa and Densil have done an amazing job of the new back door and veranda, we spent loads of time out there. It took me a while to realise that they had replaced the windows it has been done so well. Next year booked already!

“Loved the quirkiness of the cottage, the detail is awesome.”

Loved the location, which was peaceful yet easy to get to where we wanted to visit. I’d definitely come back here again. The owner is very kind and helpful too. My only two comments are the lack of washing machine and that you can hear every single noise and step made. No tv could be on in the evening after anyone went to bed etc

“Lovely cottage in a lovely part of Cornwall”

We are a family of 2 adults 4 children 7-13 and dogs, We have had such a wonderful 2 week stay at Splatt House. The house is lovely and beautifully presented and has a unique tiled floor throughout all of the downstairs. There is just one rug downstairs, so no need to worry about wet dogs and children with muddy feet (we rolled rug up to keep clean) We found the beds comfortable with lovely duvets, another twin would have suited us better the girls objected a little to sharing a double. The lane outside the house is very quiet, and there is a lovely walk from the cottage along a stream (Park shady). There are some lovely places to go even in peak season with dogs. The owner recommended St. Ives Ceramics to me because I said I like Ceramics, Wow that made my holiday! We brought our tent so when we leave tomorrow we are camping locally as the weather is so good and we don't want our lovely holiday to end.

About the location

MOUNT HAWKE

Porthtowan 2 miles ; St Agnes 2.5 miles ; Truro 7.5 miles

Mount Hawke is a small village just outside St Agnes and Porthtowan on the north Cornish coast. Once heavily involved in the local copper mining industry, today Mount Hawke is quiet and mainly residential. There is a church which is dedicated to St John the Baptist, and a very good gastro pub – The Old School Bar & Kitchen – which is, as the name suggests, in a restored, traditional school building. There is also a Post Office, a couple of shops, a primary school, village park and Cornwall’s largest indoor skate park. Porthtowan beach is a pleasant walk from the village, through woodland and a pretty valley, and St Agnes Beacon and the coastal footpath are also within easy reach. Kayak hire and tours are available at St Agnes, as are surf lessons. There are also riding stables at nearby Goonbell, which offer countryside hacks and treks as well as pub hacks, summer picnic rides and children’s Pony Days.

Note: Low lintel (5’4”) to steep open tread stairs (top stairgate) up to landing (5’5” lintel)
