Cottage holiday rentals in St Mawes

We had such an amazing time staying at Liberty Barn. Tracey was extremely helpful and flexible when we were held up in traffic. The place was a rural paradise, and we so enjoyed the spa and sauna.

We’ve just spent a wonderful four nights here, absolutely loved it. Helen is a wonderful host, property was exactly as described, warm and cosy, lovely homely feel. Big bonus with this property is the free onsite parking, a rarity in Polperro. The walk back up from the village is a bit slower, but is how it’s described in the listing. We preferred to go to & fro the village via Brackenside lane (follow google maps) which continues onto a pretty woodland path and down a long flight of steps coming out near the ice cream shop. The ice cream shop is amazing! Beautiful lunch at The Three Pilchards and the views from the roof terrace eating area are spectacular. Would definitely recommend this property to others.

Our first air b&b experience as a family of 4 (2 kids age 7&10) and it has definitely set a high standard! We arrived to Cornwall on the wettest day - not what we imagined! But as soon as we stepped in the cottage it felt like a holiday straight away. We headed to the shop (10 second walk) for logs and fired up the log burner, found everything we needed in the kitchen to cook dinner and had a board game and movie night! We were blessed with sunshine for the rest of the stay so headed to beaches for surf lessons and horseriding - the cottage is such a great location and close to plenty of gorgeous beaches. We found a play park behind the cottage near the village hall which the girls enjoyed very much. The cottage is tastefully decorated, plenty of clothes storage for a short stay and the beds are so comfy!! Hot tub is a great addition - we would have loved to have stayed longer to enjoy this more as we only had time to get in once. We will definitely return in future.

We had an absolute fantastic stay at Nicola's place. We can highly recommend this most relaxing and peaceful place in stunning Cornwall. Nicola is a great host and has made us feel very welcome. She has created an absolute wonderful home away from home with everything you wish for. Thank you so much for having us. Hope to come back some time soon.

This is one of the best airbnbs I’ve stayed in - no signal or WiFi, but it forced us to switch off which was magical. The location is stunning, gorgeous walks and sunsets. We walked down to the secluded cove they have about 10 mins walk to the top of the hill, through a farm. The Airbnb was such a surprise - the photos don’t do it justice! Lovely touches, and cream tea on our arrival. Will 100% come back again

I highly recommend, this is my second time staying at one of Kate’s properties. The space is beautifully designed with little touches of luxury throughout, whilst also creating a welcoming and at home feeling. It’s an easy drive to many beaches. It all makes for a very enjoyable and relaxing stay.

Beautiful home from home accommodation. Very relaxing very clean, some lovely little extra touches, bottle of Fizz, tea, biscuits etc . Particularly loved the outside space. Claire and Connor very responsive, good clear instructions for check in and check out. Would definitely recommend a visit if you need somewhere to chill out.

We loved our stay at bumblebee cottage. It was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Loved the attention to detail and was very thankful for the welcome pack. The hot tub is private and a great size for relaxing. Tracy our host was very communicative, friendly and at hand for any questions. We will definitely be returning. Our children loved it that much they asked if we could move in.

A wonderful base to explore North Cornwall, the cottage is well equipped and very comfortable and in a very quiet location. Erik was very helpful and responded to any queries I had very promptly.

Had a lovely stay at the Cottage. Clear instructions provided to gain access to the property. Accurately described and met all of our needs as a family. If anything the listing doesn’t do it justice. Nice location for lots of local dog walking and plenty of beaches commutable nearby. Will 100% return in future.

Had a great stay, lovely area, accommodation was perfect for us, would consider it again when visiting our favourite part of the world. Plus perfect host.

Came down for a family wedding nearby and location was perfect for us. The farmhouse was cozy, welcoming and spacious. The beds were comfy, so much so we all overslept on checkout morning. Facilities, especially in the kitchen were ideal for us. We would love to come again, next time for longer so we can explore the local area more thoroughly and probably with the dog who missed out this time. Thanks for having us to stay.

The cottage is in a lovely location with great views from one of the double bedrooms and the conservatory and driveway. It felt very homely with the fire very useful, comfy sofas, thick stone walls. Kitchen is a little small but has everything needed, and has a spacious dining area attached. Comfortably fits 6, even 7 with sofa bed, though the two single bed mattresses feel a bit old. It was at a discounted price however with some more work said to be needed. Lovely woodland walk on the doorstep and coast very close. Very quiet and peaceful. Didn’t find pre-warned damp much of an issue. Amy was helpful and attentive though being in a different time zone. Appreciated the private space. A good find.

Karen was a great host, very good stay, thank you for hospitality

We had a fantastic time at Jenny’s lovely cottage! Jenny is kind and helpful, and communicated throughout to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The cottage is beautifully decorated and the garden and location is a little peace of heaven. Small mishap with the cleaning at arrival, but quickly resolved with a very friendly housekeeper. Thank you so much for having us, we’ll be back soon!

Excellent cottage in a perfect location. Jayce and Hannah were great hosts, would definitely recommend to anyone planning at trip to St Ives. I will be back 😊

Lovely place as a base for a great holiday in Cornwall with the family!

Lovely place, very nice and responsive hosts, great stay overall, would recommend!

Wonderful family stay at Winnie’s cottage. In beautiful surroundings and in beautiful accommodation. Family break where everything was provided and so much more opportunities. From the log burning to the opportunity to have a cozy bbq set up. Surrounded by animals in a sublime environment. Immaculate cottage where everything was provided, even a welcome gift by an amazing host, Maria, who was welcoming and inviting throughout our visit.

Claire and Chris were extremely hospitable and flexible. We arrived at a rather unsociable hour, but they were both more than understanding and welcoming. This little gem is spotless and fresh, with tasteful decor and a timeless Cornish cottage feel. Claire left some great snacks etc which were most welcome after a long drive. The location is great, too, with the A30 literally a few minutes drive away, and super close to the lively Lanivet Inn. Couldn’t recommend enough for both tourists, and (once!) locals coming back to Cornwall to visit.

This house is actually bigger and much nicer than it looks on the pictures. We would love to stay here over and over again!

set in a beautiful mews of original workers cottages in quiet rural location with excellent pub next door . easy access to camel trail and Cornwall's attractions . Cottage very nice ,real log fireplace ,snug and perfect for 4 of us . Recommended

Very shortly after arriving I received a very warm welcome from Ian and Clare. I could park directly next to the cottage, which had a lovely secure & compact garden, so I knew the dogs were safe & sound. The well-maintained and good-sized paddock is brilliant for the dogs to have a quick runaround & chase the toys that can be borrowed from inside the well-equipped laundry room. Wren Cottage was pristine, with everything needed for a warm & comfortable stay. There are two very comfortable armchairs. There was always hot water and plenty of storage space in the kitchen. The dog biscuits & human treats were an unexpected and very welcome touch. The maps and local information package was very useful. The cottage is only a 10-15-min walk from the beautiful St Nectan's Glen, and a little further down the road, you can pick up the coast path & walk through Rocky Valley and into Tintagel. There is a shorter route to Tintagel if preferred. Boscastle & other places v accessible by car & bus.

This was a beautiful cottage with everything we needed for a great stay… Fabulous central location, quiet private space. Lovely hosts ensuring we had everything we needed and offering local recommendations… Can’t recommend highly enough we will definitely be back… thank you 🧡
