“The cottage was warm, comfortable and well equipped with a welcome pack of milk, tea, coffee and biscuits The location was very good with easy walking to a Spar, pub and the coastal path.”

There was a regular bus to St Ives and Lands end. It did help that the weather was excellent for walking and the wild flowers were everywhere.

Not a lot of instructions on how to work appliances.

Alison June 2021

“Had a really great stay at the Quillet, the cottage was as expected, everything we needed, the surroundings and setting were beautiful, peaceful and quiet, not far to walk to the coast path and able to enjoy evenings watching the sun go down.”

Would definitely return. A lovely touch by the owners leaving us complimentary Cornish shortbread biscuits for our arrival with some Cornish tea. Thank you.

John June 2021

“Everything was perfect, the cottage was just perfect for my wife and I , not I grant you a penthouse apartment ,but perfect for us.”

Location was again for us 10/10 and we will be going back again no question.Mrs North was the perfect host and was there if you needed anything.The farm itself was perfect bliss and right on the southwest coastal path. I don't like to go on about a place because if you do it's become's unavailable due to being fully booked so ignore my comments!

“We have stayed at Quillet many times.”

It's like our second home! I cry when I arrive and when it's time to go home! It's perfect - so quiet, so much light in the lounge, stunning views, only a 15 minute drive to 3 major supermarkets, a 30 minute walk to the breathtaking Portheras cove with its crashing waves and even when we had a power cut on the Thursday evening, Mrs North was straight on the phone to the electricity company and offered us candles! We have already booked again for later in the year Mrs J Parry

“It was a perfect holiday cottage in these troubled times, everything you needed for a quiet getaway in a stunning part of the world.”

Just what we needed, Thankyou.

“The Quillet at Calartha Farm was just what we needed.”

Extremely peaceful and quiet with fabulous views. Just perfect after the noise and bustle of London's Eastend. Just a 20 min drive from Sennen Cove Beach and not far from Penzance and all the big stores. Lovely countryside, great pub with restaurants, St Ives easily accessible, just park in St Erth station carpark and get the short hop train into St Ives, the beach beneath the station is great. Visit the Geevor mine and the Pendeen lighthouse. The Spar in Pendeen sells newspapers and stocks the essentials. Mrs North is lovely and very helpful and the walks along the coastal paths breathtaking. A lovely break.

- Stephen, September 2020

Debbie July 2019

“The bungalow was in a lovely setting although the the track to get to it is very bumpy.”

The bungalow itself was clean and had everything you needed. Also if any one is nervous around dogs be aware the owner has 2 which like to run up to meet you. Mrs North was friendly and was there to meet us. The area around farm is stunning so much to see and do and the coast path very near by . The bungalows garden was lovely with it being a sun trap and with sea views . All in all a great holiday
