What guests are saying
We had a wonderful time at the Taw River View.
The cottage is very comfortable, clean and beautiful in a picturesque village. Lovely tearoom and pub nearby. Pam and Steve are the perfect hosts. Thank you for making us feel at home. Uta
Loved the property only one thing that was off putting for us was the boiler in the bedroom, it came on early in morning and woke us up each day.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Extremely comfortable accommodation and very helpful hosts. Loved the garden and the sound of the river. Location great for exploring the region.
