Castallack Farm Cottages

25th September 2021:

Definitely the best cottage we’ve ever stayed in. The cottage is extremely well set up. Everything you could want when away from home. Beautiful location. Lovely grounds.

Thoroughly recommend the Dog & Rabbit for coffee or lunch in St Just. Also the Kurt Jackson gallery is well worth a visit.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for extremely wonderful review. Yes, the Dog & Rabbit is great & so is Maria Chica in Pendeen for tapas. Kurt Jackson exhibitions are always worth a visit.

19th September 2021:

The cottage provided us with everything we needed for our stay and was ideal for my mother who has limited mobility as it is all one level once in the cottage. Nick and Rachel were very welcoming, letting us know that they were close at hand should we need anything but otherwise left us to it

So much to do, so little time Thoroughly enjoyed the Minack theatre, the Jubilee Lido and the Marine Discovery trip on the catamaran. Due to the ongoing problems with Covid, it is advisable to book well in advance for restaurants and trips but then again a good walk along the coastal path with a picnic is a win, win, win

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for great review.'So much to do, so little time' indeed. You would think you could easily run out of things to do, but you can't.

29th August 2021:

Such a peaceful, beautiful setting. Delicious cake on arrival thanks. We found the place through a friend recommending who had stayed previously.

Sennen cove sunset Mousehole in the evening very pretty with the lights Lamorna Cove in the day when the tide is out revealing the beach. Coastal walk from Lamorna to Mousehole Pasties from the cafe in Mousehole If doing Lands End go early to avoid the crowds- we went round 930am. And can bypass all the touristy attractions if not interested. Same with St Ives. Go early. Get a train in or a taxi. St Michael's Mount Minack theatre and the beach Longrock beach for a big dog friendly beach nearby

Would Recommend: Yes

Great ideas for others to follow. Yes, peaceful it is.Thanks for reviewing.

22nd August 2021:

Castallack Farm is such a wonderful farm in a breathtakingly beautiful part of Cornwall. The first time we saw Lamorna Cove as we walked down the hill it took our breath away. Just stunning. Trevean is in a calm and peaceful location tucked away in beautiful countryside. The house is very well equipped with super comfortable beds and cosy living room. We loved all the walks from the doorstep and appreciated the folder full of local tips. The delicious cake waiting for us when we arrived was such a welcome surprise too. Thank you Nick and Rachel for making our stay so nice.

We loved walking to Lamorna Pottery for a cuppa and early morning walks to Lamorna Cove and Mousehole. As we visited during the height of summer we found that the local beaches were very busy but enjoyed visiting them after 6pm when most had gone home and parking was free - especially at Porthcurno. We’d also recommend visiting St Ives early in the morning to avoid the crowds as it was incredibly busy. The ice cream hut, Moomaid in the Field, on the B3306 road from St Ives to St Just is a really lovely pit stop. We loved Tremenheere Sculpture Garden near Penzance for super views over to St Michael’s Mount and Trebah Garden on the River Helford Estuary. What amazing flowers!

Would Recommend: Yes

So pleased you had a great stay & took advantage of many of the great places to visit. Tremenheere Sculpture Gardens is one of our favourites & they do a great Sunday roast.

16th August 2021:

We've stayed here quite a few times now and each time we are delighted with how clean, tidy and well equipped the cottage is. Perfect for our dog with the private garden and Nick and Rachel are great hosts. The lemon cake left for us on arrival is a great way to start the holiday! Enjoy seeing the farm animals and giving the pigs a scratch!

Sennen beach cafe for an evening drink with fantastic sunset over the sea. Cape Cornwall for fantastic wildlife including Choughs and Seals. Lewis's Fish and Chips in Newlyn and Moomaid ice cream parlour in St Just.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks to Lorraine & Rob fore being such good guests. We are really happy you keep returning. Nick & Rachel

19th July 2021:

Trevean is a great cottage for two adults or a small family - comfortable and with a great garden to use. The bets feature however is this position. The far west of Cornwall is absolutely delightful and this is a fine place to stay to see and experience it.

There's so much to see. The coastal path, Lamorna Cove, Mousehole, Porthcurno, Porthgwarra, Gwennap Head, Lands End, Cape Cornwall, the Botallack mine, Zennor, St Ives, the Lizard Peninsula, St Michael's Mount...

Would Recommend: Yes

Great to see so many recommendations of places to visit. You would think in a relatively small area that you would be limited but not the case at all.

3rd July 2021:

Nick and Rachel are very friendly and engaging. The location is ideal for many activities locally or just peace and quiet in the privacy of the cottage and surroundings. The cottage is equipped with all that you need and a robust and fast WiFi connection to keep in touch with others and gets a lot of sun throughout the day.

Thai Moon in Penzance, the takeaway Bo Thai near the turn off for Lamorna Cove, Swimming with Horses near Marazion was an enjoyable experience. Lots of local walks along the coast in each direction from Lamorna Cove.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for submitting your thoughts about Tremerth Cottage @ Castallack Farm. V. glad you enjoyed your stay. Best wishes, Nick

27th June 2021:

Very friendly & helpful which in many ways mirrors the location! Virtually traffic free !

Visited when we were not totally out of COVID Lockdown. Kings Arms in Paul is great as is the Fish n chip shop in Marazion which is just yards from the beach and looks directly out at St Michaels mount . They also do do excellent ice creams !. Perfect. Unfortunately some pubs / restaurants were not open due to staffing issues around COVID and general workforce shortages.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for the local info for other guests. glad you enjoyed your stay. Kings Arms has got a few good reviews lately so we'll be trying it to see!! Best wishes. Nick

27th June 2021:

Fantastic cottage in wonderful surroundings. Perfect in every way.

Would Recommend: Yes

Brilliant, thanks for glowing report. Pleasure to have had you stay. Best wishes. Nick

13th June 2021:

Beautiful,clean well equipped cottage in fabulous location. Extremely friendly and helpful owners. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you so much for lovely review. Really appreciate it when guests feel that the cottages & lopcation live up to expectations & often exceed them! Best wishes Nick & Rachel

12th June 2021:

Every thing you need is provided in the cottage. Home from home. So Clean ! like moving in to a new home. You don’t feel like their guests. More like neighbours and the best neighbours that give you all the privacy and support you need. Not as thou we needed any. Nick and Rachel are a Email away to answer any issue and as prompt as a text away. You have off road parking even a private garden complete with fire pit and picnic benches. A great welcome awaits you with a excellent cake. Some nice local walks that pass the cottage. Short drive away from Newlyn and every shop you need for a self catering holiday.

Plan your days and trips out catering for any change in weather we had two days of Sun but we loved every minute of it. Cornwall has everything you could want and more you just have to research before you go. Everything can be reached by car in half an hour. We Just Needed another two weeks to fit it all in.

Would Recommend: Yes

Wow, that's a really great review, thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed yourselves so much. Hope to see you again. Best wishes, Nick & Rachel.

7th June 2021:

Location was brilliant, easy to get to so many places in West Cornwall from the cottage. The walk along the bridle path to the meadow was perfect with our dog. Rachel and Nick were lovely and welcoming and it was great to meet their animals! Cottage itself was gorgeous and ideal size for a family of 4.

Wherrytown beach at low tide is perfect if you have a dog and children - we went there several times. Lamorna pottery cafe lovely for a cream tea.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for a lovely review & very glad you enjoyed your holiday here. Hope to see you again. Best wishes. Nick😎

8th May 2021:

A beautiful rural location. Friendly, helpful owners who were quick to respond to queries. The lemon drizzle cake made for our arrival was much appreciated. Tremerth was spacious and comfortable with a log burner. The private garden with fire pit was great fun.

Gorgeous walks from Tremerth cottage along the lanes and footpaths around Lamorna and Mousehole. We can highly recommend the Lamorna Pottery for lunch and cakes (close to the end of the bridle way).

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for that, glad you enjoyed the cottage & surroundings.

1st May 2021:

Lovely spacious and comfortable cottage with beautiful walks outside the front door.

Would Recommend: Yes

Yes, a main plus for us & any visitor is the beautfiful countryside & the many & varied walks. Thanks for your feed back

27th April 2021:

Always very welcoming with a few personal touches. A fresh homemade cake. A small vase of local flowers. Lovely outdoor space for use

Walk the bridleway for stoneage relicss. Newlyn for fresh fish. The Penlee Art Gallery The Cafe (eat outside during restrictions) and shop open. The Minnack Gardens

Would Recommend: Yes

The standing stone that stands amongst gorse & bracken a short way up the bridleway is quite impressive. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Again!!

12th November 2020:

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Castallack Farm. Tremerth was ideal for our needs with our dog in rehab following surgery & trying to avoid the fireworks! So peaceful with stunning surroundings, just what we needed to completely relax & I have to admit, I did enjoy no phone signal! The cottage itself is spacious, warm & cosy with a really big, comfortable bed. If you’re considering booking here you won’t be disappointed!!

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks so much for your comments. It is perfect for a relaxing week or so away from modern day pressures.

25th October 2020:

A fantastic retreat for peace and quiet. facilities excellent and Nick and Racheal are always so [pleasant and helpful. The property is always lovely and warm which is lovely after a day walking in the wind and sometimes the rain.

Penlee Art gallery Penzance. Kurt Jackson Gallery St. Just. Newlyn very interesting place. Good for fresh fish especially Trelawney's

Would Recommend: Yes

Yes, lovely & warm it certainly is. Must be something to do with the exceptionally thick granite walls. It's also a walkers paradise.

25th October 2020:

A very peaceful and charming setting that once you have found it you will continue to revisit. Kitchen equipment is plentiful and the owners have thought of everything if you enjoy cooking.

Depending on your holiday needs it has everything on your door step from staying in to cook to the minac theatre and pretty fishing villages

Would Recommend: Yes

West Cornwall has it all as long as you don't want super sophisticated or super chic!! However there are some really good places to eat, think very local fish & many different places to visit. Thanks for your comments.

17th October 2020:

Wi-fi and telephone signal was very poor. Not entirely that important, but could be essential to maintain contact with family or business interests.

Before anything else when arriving, walk immediately to Lamorna cove. Simply extraordinary. A place of pilgrimage.

Would Recommend: Yes

Lamorna might well have been a departure many centuries ago for getting to Northern Spain for onwards to Santiago de Compostela. The cottages have both got routers of their own now which makes for better WiFi but we cannot get fibre or high speed here so 6-8mbps is about the best we receive. Easily good enough for e-malis & web browsing but not for streaming. Mobile signal is again beyond our control but it is possible albeit with a bit of searching.

17th October 2020:

Excellent hosts

Recommend buying fresh fish from Newlyn. Definitely do the recommended walks in the folder. Visit Praa Sands - excellent beach! The best crab sandwich at Habourside Cafe Porthlevan. The BEST pasty, homemade is from the butchers next door to the bakers in Newlyn.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for your comments & recommendations. The pasty one may be contentious however. We think that Philps pasties in Hayle are pretty special!! All the other recommends are first class.

2nd August 2020:

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for 20 out of 20

25th July 2020:

We have mainly spent our holidays in self catering cottages in Cornwall for the last 32 years and have always been so fortunate to have chosen beautiful accommodation at a lovely standard in all ways. However, Tremerth Cottage and it’s surroundings at Castallack beat them all and literally took our breath away. For peace and quiet and relaxation, both inside the cottage and in its grounds, it can’t be beaten. It’s close location by car to so many pretty harbours and coves leaves you spoilt for choice. And as for the decor, furnishings, equipment, etc., in Tremerth Cottage, it is excellent, homely, cosy, and everything you need, even down to a bottle of prosecco in the fridge. We’ll definitely be back - probably as soon as next year.

Unless keen walkers, you will need a car but having said that, your drives can be extremely short with so many enticing coves and harbours only ten to fifteen minutes away. We went out every day in our car and only spent a total of £15.40 on petrol in the seven days there! Nature abounds around the cottage so ideal for photographers and artists.

Would Recommend: Yes

We live in a very special part of the world. Cornwall & especially West Cornwall is a delight. Having been here for over 20 years we feel that we are starting to get our vision in place so it is great to hear your views. Thank you.

19th July 2020:

Castalack farm is a gold standard in hospitality conveyed with true safety , quality and especially comfort -arriving to the most considered of welcomes, everything is in place to ensure your privacy and safety -the house was immaculate, ensuring we did not become compromised in any way, but to just enjoy the beauty and comfort of our stay -honestly it is not possible to convey the absolute charm and relaxation we were grateful to have experienced -we are grateful to Rachel and Nick for the complete dedication to ensure their guests are feeling relaxed and safe during their stay ......

What ever you do ,take a walk along the cliffs from Porthgwarra to lands end, here is contained all the history and beauty that is magical about West Penwith, and swim in the quiet waters on Perranuthnoe-----fish and chips in Marazion, --but you cannot leave without being seduced by homemade ice-cream, topped with clotted cream, and of course, embellished with a flake from Jelberts in Newlyn -older and more unique than all mankind ... now thats living ...

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you so much for a really wonderful review & we are delighted that you appreciated the safety & comfort of our cottage. It has been a slog to get everything as 'right' as possible & your safety, privacy & enjoyment are our primary concerns. Thank you again.

13th July 2020:

Rachel and Nick were excellent hosts and we had the best time! We had our own private outside space with a fire pit which was great! The cottage itself was cozy and comfortable ! Great atmosphere beautiful location and it felt like a proper authentic Cornish experience !

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for giving us 5 out of 5. The new woodland area with firepit is a great addition to the cottage.

12th July 2020:

We really enjoyed our stay. It was a lovely quiet location and the cottage had excellent facilities. We couldn’t have asked for more.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your review, very glad you enjoyed your stay. Peace & quiet mostly guaranteed.

25th March 2020:

Brilliant as always. Thank you.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for reviewing. We are so pleased to get excellent reviews.

29th December 2019:

The cottage was well equipped with a very large comfortable bed. The lounge was very cozy (needed another armchair as we had visitors). Our mobile phones(Vodafone) had no signal at all so we relied on internet. That was very slow but we we're in the middle of the countryside.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your review. Yes, phone signals vary but my iphone [Vodaphone] has WiFi calling to it works in tandem with the router. Broadband is slow, we are constantly being told by BT that 'fibre' is on the way. WE'll wait & see!! The two sofas do seat four but appreciate if you have guests there may not be room but neither is there really room for another armchair.

12th October 2019:

The cottage was well equipped we found nothing wrong, had an issue with the timing of the central heating which John fixed immediately

We found the location excellent for touring Western Cornwall went out every day and saw all that was on our to do list. Had lunch at The Lugger Inn in Penzance on Sunday the Carvery is good value for money. Did not eat out much but sampled all the Cornwall treats, Cream tea, pasties best eaten on a bench in the harbour at St Ives, ice cream while watching cormorants feeding in Mousehole harbour

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for your review. Sorry you only gave 3/5 for service, possibly due to timing of central heating which my brother in law sorted as we were away on the Norfolk Broads. glad you enjoyed the area.

11th September 2019:

Nice, pleasant, discrete.

Most good restaurants nearby were booked when we rang, book well in advance! Visit to a Minack theatre is a must.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for great rating. Yes, the good local restaurants get very busy in the summer and booking is always advisable if you can plan ahead. It has been a bit more difficult in Mousehole this year due to a fire at The Old Coastguard which has consequently been closed all summer. Minack theatre is an absolute joy and we always recommend.

11th September 2019:

We had a wonderful stay at Castallack cottage opposite our friends I put 4 for location as some visitors might find the location a bit isolated. It was perfect for our needs.

Visits to St Ives (Tate), St Just (Kurt Jackson gallery), Newlyn and Mousesole are local musts for lovely shops, galleries, restaurants and cafes. Further afield Falmouth for the maritime museum.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your recommendations of local arts etc. Yes, we are a bit out of the way but only ten minutes to Newlyn and Penzance.

6th September 2019:

Everything was spot on.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for rating us highly. Glad you enjoyed your stay.

19th August 2019:

A haven of tranquility. Wonderfully equipped, perfectly located. A true home from home. With horses, sheep, pigs, cats and wonderful dogs. We spent the most wonderful time there ... and did not want to leave at all ... thanks to Rachel´s and Nick´s hospitality. We will most definitely return!

Mousehole (of course) Newlyn (the Art Gallery is state-of-the-art concerning contemporary art and the Mackerel Sky is the place to have seafood) Penzance Porthcurno cove ... truly most beautiful Church and Dollar Cove on the Lizard Lizard point St Ives (Porthminster Beach is so beautiful ... as is the Restaurant there!!!)

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for a wonderful review. All we can do is say that you were perfect guests and a delight to have you stay with us..

9th August 2019:

Home from home in Trevean cottage

Fore St in Mousehole Gurnards Head

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your 5 star review. Glad you felt at home. Best wishes

17th July 2019:

This was my fourth time staying at the Cottages and B&B. This time a family Holiday, it was lovely, we where also lucky with excellent weather. Location couldn't be better. Accommodation is excellent.

Take walk down the side of the cottages into the Lamorna valley. Grab a coffee in the Pottery. Then onto the Wink in the valley. Cape Cornwall has fabulous views if you walk up the stack you may spot a chough. The Golf club has a lovely quiet indoor pool. Too many to add but an evening meal in the Logan near Porthcurno is a must if you add a pudding! Merry Maidens is very near which is a Bronze age stone circle. Too many other to mention!

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your 5 star review. A walk up the bridleway to Lamorna is a great journey with fabulous views. We also love the location!!

9th July 2019:

Nick and Rachel are always very welcoming and nothing is too much trouble . Always a peaceful and relaxing holiday . We will return .

Logan Rock at Treen very good pub for food and drink. St Buryan Farm Shop very good. Wonderful walks from the property. Lamorna Wink very hit & miss for opening times and for serving food.

Would Recommend: Yes

3rd July 2019:

Nicely located for access to peace and quiet but within walking distance to Mousehole, Lamorna and pubs for food and drink.

Try Thai Moon in Penzance for food. Lamorna Cove, Porthcurno and Minack Theatre. Sennen and Portreath for surfing, Kynance Cove for picturesque views

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your 5 star review. One of the reasons we love living here is that it is away from it all but five minutes to Mousehole [twenty if you are walking] and ten minutes to Newlyn. Glad you like it as much as we do.

28th June 2019:

We felt very comfortable in our cottage. We were welcomed with flowers and cake. The apartment was very nicely furnished, there was a lot of space, a nice large bathroom, the kitchen perfectly equipped with everything you need. Everything was very neat and clean! Many thanks to Rachel and Nick!

We recommend wonderful coastal hikes in the immediate vicinity!

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your review. So glad you found everything you needed for a great holiday. We do try to think of everything.

15th April 2019:

We were made to feel very welcome by Nick, Rachel, Margot. Tammy, the LLama and ll the sheep!

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for giving useful information to other guests and potential guests. Best wishes Nick

13th April 2019:

We really enjoyed our stay in your perfect little cottage. Such a beautiful rural location- perfect for exploring the breathtaking Cornish coastline. The cottage, farm and gardens were immaculate and our home for 3 nights was extremely clean, spacious and warm everything we needed. We honestly couldn’t fault a thing or find any constructive criticism to offer. Hopefully we can return again in the not too distant future. We loved our visit. Thank you!

•Minack Theatre a must. •St Michael’s Mount very interesting. •The walk from Porthgwarra to Porthcurno is stunning. •We had a lovely meal at 2 Fore St, Mousehole.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your 5 star review. All the points you make are spot on, Minack open air theatre is a brilliant place to visit whether you see a performance or not. St Michael's Mount is iconic and if the tide is out and you walk across it is fabulous. Porthgwarra is our favourit location for walking in either direction. 2, Fore Street is just about our favourite local restaurant. You certainly ticked all the boxes.

29th March 2019:

Always a joy to stay at Castallack. Thank you.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you, I am glad it is always a joy to stay in Trevean @ Castallack Farm. It is always a pleasure to have you stay with us.

4th December 2018:

Would Recommend: Yes

11th November 2018:

Fantastic location. The cottage is so very welcoming, comfy and cosy. The woodburner gives a huge amount of lovely warmth and adds that extra touch. Can't wait to come back next year.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your 5 star rating. The woodburner is a real joy and I am glad you made full use of it. The location, as you say is fantastic, so close to everything but also well away at the same time.

30th October 2018:

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage is lovely,well equipped, warm and cosy. It is quiet and peaceful and we enjoyed the lemon drizzle cake and fresh flowers that welcomed us when we arrived. There is interesting wild life in the area.

The coastal walk from Porthgwarra is beautiful, also Treen to Porthcurno. Porthcurno is stunning although dogs aren’t allowed on the beach during a summer seasonal ban. Cape Cornwall is an unspoilt National Trust area.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your 5 star rating. Yes the Porthgwarra walk is a favourite of ours and Margot & Tammy adore the lovely smells around the cliffs.

Sennon Cove weekly market in village hall excellent ‘ Fresh fish from Newlyn is a must! Get the train from Penzance to st Ives. Prussia Cove is beautiful. I Love all of that area of Cornwall! Crab sandwich at the ship in Mousehole

9th August 2018:

Always a pleasure

The little Riverbank gallery by the bridge in Newlyn has interesting work away from the usual landscapes & seascapes. Similarly the Cowhouse Gallery at Perranuthnoe and Summerhouse Gallery at Marazion.

Would Recommend: Yes

18th July 2018:

You were very helpful if you were needed. We enjoyed how your dog took the opportunity to visit us! The information file was very useful. Being so hot it would have been useful to be able to open the the windows.

We bought a booklet to follow a trail about the artists who had lived in Lamorna, it was excellent. The events we attended at the Literary Festival were excellent. The Penlee Art Gallery - and cafe -! were excellent Weekly Wednesday coffee mornings at the church hall in Paul were very friendly and welcoming.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for your good review and we are glad you had a good time whilst staying with us. Considering this is a pretty rural area there is a lot going on and something for everyone.

26th June 2018:

A truly lovely cottage and wonderful owners. The cottage had everything we needed, the outside space was perfect for our dog and the location was beautiful. We didn’t want to be in a town centre, and waking up every day with those views was perfect.

If you have a dog, waking on Longrock beach was perfect. It’s dog friendly all year round and costs £1 to visit (or free in the late afternoon/evening) and it’s just other dog walkers

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your lovely comments. Dogs and owners very welcome with great walks from the doorstep. Best wishes Nick

5th June 2018:

It’s such a lovely place to stay, the cottage is so clean and comfortable, you cannot fault it. Nick and Rachel are so welcoming. The surrounding area is peaceful and beautiful.

Lamorna Cove and Mousehole are walking distance, the Lamorna Wink and the Old Coastguard are worth a visit. There are lots of places to visit, Sennen Cove, Lizard Point, Porthleven are just a few.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your great comments. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Best wishes Nick and Rachel

4th June 2018:

26th May 2018:

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for 4 X 5 stars.

13th May 2018:

should be 10 not 5

Would Recommend: Yes

28th April 2018:

Due to unforeseen circumstances Mr. and Mrs Hood did an absolutely amazing job to rectify the matter and made our stay so enjoyable.!!

The Wink for excellent food drink and company!! Penlee Gallery worth a visit at any time but especially during poor weather with good refreshments on sight.

Would Recommend: Yes

18th March 2018:

We were made very welcome, as was our dog too. Enjoyed our stay. Only small point was lack of steak knives and larger cups or mugs. Loved the logburner. Thank you very much.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks for your reviews. It is a difficult balance getting all the equipment that could be needed. So, sorry about the steak knives and larger mugs. We generally get great feedback about how comprehensive the kitchen equipment is but it will always be a personal issue and we obviously got it wrong for you.

19th February 2018:

Castallack is so peaceful and tranquil, that we always end up coming away feeling as if we'd been there longer. Nick and Rachel (as always) looked after us well and the cottage (Tremerth) was lovely.

The local pottery at Lamorna, does a great cream tea. It is of course a great place for walks - coast path and also inland are also well worth doing.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your lovely comments. It was really good to see you, Alison & Bingo again & we look forward to next time.

1st January 2018:

The Cottage was exactly as expected with a lovely walled garden out the front. Very peaceful and relaxing. Location was superb for visiting the stunning nearby coastline. Lots of local information was provided by Rachel, who was a wonderful host. The lemon drizzle cake on arrival was much appreciated.

As recommended by Rachel, visit the Three P's - Penberth, Porthcurno & Porthgwarra

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your lovely review we are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Yes, Penberth, Porthcurno and Porthgwarra are all great coves and beaches to visit. Best wishes Nick and Rachel

14th December 2017:

We loved our stay in Tremerth Cottage. The area is outstanding, with lovely walks right from the door. The cottage was warm and comfortable, with personal touches that made it feel so welcoming. We will be back!

Apart from the Ship Inn at Mousehole, where we had a poor meal, everywhere was good.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your review we appreciate your comments. Yes, the cottage is warm with central heating and the wood burner, glad you found it so. We contacted St Austell Brewery who own the Ship Inn in Mousehole and told them of your experience. We even had a response and they asked us a number of questions about our guests experiences. Best wishes Nick and Rachel

28th November 2017:

Great place to stay, suits us perfectly, as we take our dog. Very comfortable and relaxed.

29th October 2017:

A very comfortable cottage. A nice peaceful location. Welcoming owners . The cottage is very dog friendly. There are plenty of walks from the cottage and a lovely garden. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It is easy to access the coast and the beaches by car from the cottage.

It is easy to visit the coastline and go,up,to st Ives. There is plenty to do and see in the area for everyone. We ate in the pub in Paul and had a lovely meal there we could also take in the dog.

22nd September 2017:

A lovely quiet and secluded location. Ideal for exploring the South West corner of Cornwall. A tip would be, if weather is inclement and cool in September, for the Heating to be turned on. It would be much appreciated. Flowers and Cake and Milk were lovely,thanks to Nick and Rachel.

Tolcarnne Inn, The Meadery Newlyn, very good. Parking near to Tolcarnne Inn reasonably priced. Penzance and Marazion are great for a retail shop. Mousehole very nice,and a trip to Sennen Cove.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your review. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay but concerned that you may have been cold when the weather was bad. We schedule the heating to be on in October until April but will always turn it on earlier if requested. Normally the woodburner in the lounge is sufficient, we are sorry if this was not the case for you. Best wishes Nick and Rachel

12th September 2017:

Not the first time we've stayed with Rachel and Nick and it's always been good, but it just seems to get better and better. Many thanks.

Lamorna Cove Cafe is within walking distance and has a very strong menu and superb cakes.

Really enjoyed our stay. So quiet and peaceful but not too far from shops etc and places to visit.

Liked Mousehole and St Michael's Mount. The highlight of our holiday was a trip to the Isles of Scilly - flew from Lands End Airport and came back to Penzance on the ferry (saw a whale and dolphins on our journey back.

We have stayed here before, its such a beautiful location. The cottage is so clean and comfortable and we were made very welcome.

Lamorna Cove and Mousehole are lovely walks from the cottage. Mousehole has a lovely restaurant called The Old Coastguard and dogs are allowed too. Porthleven, Sennen Cove and Lizard point are really worth a visit. There are lots more places to visit too.

We had a wonderful 12 days in the cottage and will be coming back in October

The natural beauty of the wild flowers,birds, animals and trees are really outstanding along the bridle path

Would Recommend: Yes

10th April 2017:

A well thought out cottage ,kitchen well equipped and lounge a delight with a wood burning stove. Heating was adequate throughout. A porch area outside the entrance door to the kitchen would have been very useful for leaving wet boots when raining. Good walking from the cottage and wonderfully peaceful location.

St Buryan Inn served good pub grub. Lamorna Pottery makes a good coffee. Within walking distance of Coastal Path and short car drives to access the Cornish tin mines both past and present. If you want to catch the Ferry to the Scilly Isles then Penzance is a short drive away to book a day trip.

Very welcoming. Lovely cottage: very well appointed and we could easily live there permanently.

Explore the bridleways from the cottage. Good food and company at the Wink in Lamorna, Good shopping in Newlyn Best fish from Trelawney'Fish Shop. Best Crab soup from The Red Lion in Newlyn. Wet day visit Penlee Gallery. Morab Rd. Penzance.Free Parking at the Minnack Theatre for all when no performance taking place. Theatre accessable very day for a wander around gardens and food. St. Just and Cot Valley a must and Nan Julian especially when there is a NE wind

20th February 2017:

Lovely stay, the cottage is furnished to a very high quality and is in a great location. We will come again as there is so much to explore in this part of the world.

St Ives is lovely, so is Mousehole and the local beaches along the south coast are all worth a visit.

Would Recommend: Yes

18th February 2017:

A wonderfully quiet location with countryside all around, and only the birds in the trees to be heard, and lovely sunsets too. The Tremerth is a very well equipped cottage and very comfortable and clean. Nick and Rachel are very friendly and helpful, and provide a lovely welcome with a vase of daffs and a delicious lemon drizzle cake, with a pot of tea waiting for you! Would fully recommend as it is far from the madding crowd, but within easy striking distance of facilities and options for days out. Brilliant choice for a short break or a longer holiday.

St. Michaels Mount and the beach at Marazion are a must. Lovely walks. Lots of local artists, with galleries of paintings and other crafts to visit and support. We much preferred Newlyn and Mousehole to St. Ives, which we found to be very built up.

Would Recommend: Yes

29th January 2017:

We cannot find fault with our experience at Castallack farm cottages. We were made to feel very welcome and everything that we could possibly need was provided. The next time we go to Cornwall we are highly likely to come back here if it is available.

Ideal location for exploring this part of Cornwall. Accommodation was home from home and comfortable. We are now feeling the benefit of two weeks of rest and relaxation. Cake and tea on arrival was appreciated especially after a long traffic affected journey. As hosts your kind help was very welcome

Trengwainton Garden was beautiful with a stylish restaurant and good food. St Michaels Mount a pleasure to see. Cape Cornwall, a favourite and Minack Theatre - a must go! Also, Telegraph museum at Portcurno, both with good café facilities. St Ives on the train from St Erth and local the walks and beaches at Lamorma Cove and Mousehole. Sunday lunch at the Kings Arms at Paul but booking is essential and a visit to the church opposite is recommended.

Would Recommend: Yes

4th September 2016:

Very relaxed cottage owners. We saw them when we arrived and when we left, but they are only across the yard if you need them. Lovely cake and flowers waiting for us when we arrived. Also give them a follow on Twitter.

If you are going in the summer with a dog Park at Pendeen lighthouse and walk about a mile and a half to Potheras Cove for a quiet dog friendly beach. The garden at Trevean cottage is a perfect suntrap for eating a bbq at about 7.30 in the evening.

Would Recommend: Yes

3rd September 2016:

Rachel and Nick are really friendly and always happy to provide the right information to help you get the most out of your holiday. The accommodation has a real homely feel and is perfectly placed within the farm overlooking beautiful fields.

Tremenheere Sculpture Garden - a mini tropical paradise with great views across to St Michaels Mount, dog friendly and has an excellent cafe/restaurant (also open for dinner on Thurs - Sat).

Would Recommend: Yes

20th August 2016:

Comfortable cottage with excellent facilities. Good walks from property. Friendly helpful owners.

Would Recommend: Yes

17th August 2016:

Of all cottages we rent over many years all over the UK, this cottage was above expactations. It was beautifull but contemporary, light and clean, having everything and more you could wish. Very good situated for several sightseeing trips e.g. Panzance, Landsend.

In the cottage there is a lot of information what to do or where to go, but the spot and cottage itself are also great for reading and unwinding.

Would Recommend: Yes

25th October 2015:

On booking ,the cottages looked very inviting and visually gave off the presence of comfort, after our first day the realisation was it was so much more than we imagined more a home from home! So comfortable was our stay we really found it hard to leave!

Castallack farm could not be a better hub for visiting the south of cornwall, every major site worth seeing was less than 20 mins in any direction, perfect placement!

Wonderful stay - the hosts have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and to help you settle in. The cottages are well appointed with every conceivable aid to self catering living!

Becks fish and chips on the road through Carbis Bay has a nice restaurant as well as takeaway facilities. Penzance is well provided for by three enormous supermarkets, Morrisons at Long Rock; Sainsburys and Tesco along the A30 route into town. Out towards Newlyn you will find a Co-Op and Lidl, but of course the fun is in finding local farm shops and produce. Trevaskis Farm shop out near Connor Downs is a magnificent example and has a restaurant attached, for superb breakfast, lunch or dinner!
