Millie's Place in St Austell is highly praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and peaceful rural setting. Guests appreciate the secure garden for dogs, the well-equipped facilities, and the friendly, helpful host. While internet connectivity and steep steps are noted, the overall experience is one of relaxation and satisfaction.
Guests consistently mention the spotless condition of the cottage, indicating a high level of cleanliness that contributes to the comfort and enjoyment of their stay.
The property is appreciated for its quiet, secluded rural setting, though some guests note narrow lanes typical of Cornwall. Its proximity to St Austell and beaches is seen as a positive aspect.
Reviews highlight the comfortable sitting room and bedroom, as well as the overall warm and comfortable atmosphere of the cottage, making it a relaxing retreat.
While the reviews mention well-equipped facilities and a secure garden, there is insufficient detail to fully assess the maintenance aspect. Therefore, this score is set to null.
The host is commended for their thoughtfulness, including a welcome pack for guests. However, as gifts are not guaranteed, guests should consider this a delightful bonus rather than an expectation.

Where to start? Millie’s Place is perfect. Everything we needed and more for another fantastic holiday here. Spotlessly clean, warm and comfortable. Perfect peace and relaxation, with a great enclosed garden for our dog. Really cannot praise Millie’s Place enough. Combine that with a wonderful host who thinks of everything and why go anywhere else. Thank you Victoria for another fabulous holiday.
