 "Equipped to the highest standard" What can I say, a beautiful cottage, great village location for getting about in the south of Cornwall, it is well equipped to the highest standard with everything you might need and if it wasn't there, Becky (the owner would accommodate, nothing was too much trouble, even ice). Having two bathrooms was a bonus with 2 couples sharing. Enough space for parking two cars in the grounds which we found useful when coming back at night. Sole use of the hot tub adjoining the cottage, which was lovely to get into after a long day out and a bonus to our stay. I would definitely recommend you try this little gem.

 "Beautiful property in a beautiful location with the most lovely hosts." This property has everything you require and more. The property it clean and beautifully presented. It is in the perfect location and is central to most sightseeing places. The hot tub and hospitality is second to none. Nothing was to much trouble for the owners and we are looking forward visiting again. Excellent property.

 "Beautiful Cottage" We spend a relaxing holiday in a very cosy and well equiped cottage. The owners had been so helpful and respected privacy a lot. Kids are so welcome and everything they need is in space. We felt very comfortable and would definitly recommend this accomodation. June 2018

 "What an amazing find!!" The location, attention to detail and accommodating nature of Richard and Becky made it a fabulous little break. It's a perfect country hideaway, but is also close to the coast. The cottage itself is beautifully decorated and the attention to detail is second to none. From the gorgeous welcome pack and local beers in the fridge, to the wood burner all set up ready for us to use, to the fantastically comfortable beds, the gorgeous roll top bath and the lovely decoration and calming colour scheme, there was nothing to fault. The kitchen was the best equipped I have ever used - absolutely everything has been thought of. Thanks Richard and Becky! Stayed May 2017

 "Everything you need to relax in great location" What a fantastic stay at Herb Cottage, everything you need and so clean! The owners are very helpful and recommended local restaurants,even booked for us and we're able to babysit so we could have a meal without the children. From top class bed linen and goose down pillows, wood burner, coffee machine and up to date DVDs, interesting books and games and magazines to play we could of easily stayed and not ventured out, almost like staying in a hotel if I did not have to empty the dishwasher! The children loved walking around the fields and along the nearby river. The area is near to St Ives (30minutes) and Marazion (5mins). The nearby beaches are great, sunset at Gwithian made it for us. Thank you for a great stay and hopefully we will be back again to try the hot tub when it is installed. The Thomas family. Stayed April 2017

 "A stunning property, close to all of the wonderful places we wanted to visit, perfect!" The property is honestly the nicest, cleanest, most comfortable property we've ever stayed in. We love Cornwall and have been coming every year for 10 years. And we've finally found the perfect home. Becky and Richard were extreamy welcoming, helpful and full of excellent advice on places to visit. On arrival we drove down the drive, to be treated with a personal sign, with all of our names, followed by an introduction to Herb Cottage with Richard. The smell of lavender was such a lovely first impression as we walked through the door. Bright, clean, beautifully decorated, all modern convieniences, two showers, very comfortable large bed, plenty of towels, and the most wonderful welcome basket. Fresh Cornish yoghurt, scones, cream, jam, butter biscuits, strawberries, bread, cheeses, beer, cider. Above and beyond. The sofa was so comfortable, perfect for relaxing on after a dip in the large hot tub, followed by a new movie DVD, especially layer out, along with plenty of magazines and fun books. We can't thank Becky and Richard and their boys enough for such a wonderful holiday. We were so blown away we've already booked another stay in February. A home from home, thank you so very much. Stayed August 2017, and booked another three times!

 "Gorgeous property" The owners of Herb Cottage live next door and were extremely helpful and friendly. Becky had thought of everything, and this is probably the best equipped place we have stayed in. There were lots of little thoughtful touches such as candle lanterns in the garden on an evening which looked magical! They’d also left a very generous selection of goodies too. We loved the hot tub and also Ted the dog! I would certainly recommend Herb Cottage Stayed May 2018

 This cottage is perfect! So many little touches that are so thoughtful. The nicest place I’ve ever stayed. I think we could have stayed indoors all week and been very happy. The hot tub and bath are fantastic, and it was great arriving in the evening with all the candles lit up the drive. The food basket was also lovely. Safe to say we would 100% stay again. Thank you Becky and Richard.

 This trip was perfect from beginning to end. Communication with the hosts was easy before and during the trip. They made themselves available without being overbearing. The cottage is beautiful and the hosts really have thought of everything from a well equipped kitchen the to comfy bed and amazing bathroom to the best selection of games, books (including children's books in the twin bedroom), and even toys in the sitting room. We travelled from within the UK but this cottage was so well organised that it would be a great place to arrive to from overseas. The welcome basket was second to none as were the apples in the orchard which were offered should we wish to enjoy them (we enjoyed an apple crumble). The hot tub was just lovely in the evenings when we relaxed taking in the stars. The cottage is well placed for local trips and we found the supply of maps very handy. We would happily revisit

 Had a really fantastic relaxing stay at Herb Cottage. The cottage has been beautifully furnished and the owners have thought of everything. We were welcomed with a cream tea, fresh bread, milk, coffee and even ice in the freezer! There is a well stocked collection of games and films and if you need more relaxation, the hot tub is amazing. We will definitely be returning in the not too distant future. Highly recommend Herb Cottage.

 Fantastic barn conversion, even nicer than the photos. The hosts gave us a very warm welcome and nothing was too much trouble. The location is ideal for exploring both the north and south coasts and after a busy day out it was great to relax in the hot tub. Fabulous holiday, didn’t want to leave!

 A beautiful place to stay. The cottage is great, and we were given such a warm welcome. This is set in a great place to explore West Cornwall and the Lizard.. We’ll certainly have at the top of our list next time we head to Cornwall. Recommended!

 Perfect home This is one of the best holiday homes that we’ve ever rented. It is so comfortable and has absolutely everything and more good quality equipment than you’d need. It’s in a great location for exploring the beauty of the far south west, very handy for SW Coast Path, Marazion, Penzance, St Michael's Mount and many other wonderful locations. Becky and Richard are really wonderful hosts and the welcome pack was such a generous and thoughtful gesture. We can highly recommend Herb Cottage. Aug 2019

 TOP QUALITY The property was finished to the highest standard. All you could ever want was provided (including a hot tub!). Rooms light and airy and the beds and seats very comfortable. Kitchen table just about OK for four people. Bathrooms very high standard. Good sized TV plus DVD and radio. WiFi OK but dropped a few times (maybe a poor feed in a rural location). Good range of provisions in welcome pack. Lots of attention to detail. Property manager friendly and helpful. Location good for accessing plenty of interesting places in Cornwall. We were highly satisfied with our stay. Sept 2019

 Fabulous holiday cottage We had a fabulous stay here. The cottage really does have everything you need and there are lots of little touches that really make it that bit more special. We had a lovely cream tea on arrival and our supermarket order had been delivered and unpacked which was great. There were loads of games to play with for our daughter which she absolutely loved, we also made use of the beach things in the shed. The hot tub was great after a day out too. The cottage is lovely and clean and beds are sofas were really comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for more. We really enjoyed a meal in The Square in Porthleven and also enjoyed a visit to the Newlyn Film House and Lewis’s fish and chips in Newlyn was great especially the monkfish. A great stay thank you.

 A Dream of a Place. What an absolutely gorgeous place. Totally idyllic. The lovely owners, Becky and Richard, have thought of everything and then thought even more and improved on perfection. The cottage is beautifully decorated - cozy and not at all too precious. It really is so welcoming. Everything you could possibly desire is there. Shelves of new fiction and non fiction incase you’ve forgotten a book - not an ancient foxed Catherine Cookson or Stephen King in sight. Current dvds. The hot tub is fantastic . We looked forward to using it every night. Ted, the most adorable doggy in the universe, will come and say hello. Honestly, we couldn’t think of even a teeny tiny negative aspect to our week away. The beds are sooooo comfy. If you have children in your party then they will be thrilled to find toys in the cottage and a selection of dvds just for them. We recommend Herb Cottage wholeheartedly.
