Guests say

The property offers a comfortable stay with well-equipped facilities and thoughtful touches like scones and cream. Its location provides easy access to local attractions, and the extensive grounds are perfect for walks.
The Granary is generally well-received for cleanliness, with guests finding it nice and clean. However, one mention of cobwebs suggests room for improvement with a deep clean.
The location is highly regarded for its tranquility and rural charm, with easy access to the A30, making it a central point for exploring the area.
Comfort is highlighted with mentions of a comfy bed, sofas, and a well-sized property for families. One review suggests the ensuite could be updated, but overall, comfort levels are high.
Facilities are well-received, with a well-kitted kitchen and additional amenities like a games room. Some guests suggest minor updates could enhance the experience.

The cottage and location definitely exceeded the highest expectations. We had the most enjoyable few days there and very much look forward to a return visit in the very near future.

This was a superb cottage and having the run of the extensive grounds was tremendous. Our dog did not want to go! The Cornish cream tea and dog treats are a lovely touch and the owners couldn't have been more friendly

we had a great stay at the Granary for October half term. 2 adults, 2 teenage children, and our dog. The directions to get to the location were great, and we were warmly welcomed by Clive, who showed us where everything was.The Granary is well sized for a family of four, with every conceivable need catered for in the kitchen diner. the weather was ok, so we had a chance to wander around the grounds with the dog, and it is truly a lovely place.Thanks guys, we will probably be back again in the future :-)
