We spent a lovely Christmas as a family in Sharon’s cottage. It is in a quiet peaceful location with easy access to everything Cornwall has to offer. It is well equipped, cosy and comfortable.
We considered ourselves lucky to have found such a lovely place to stay. A very comfortable and well furnished cottage in an ideal location for exploring this part of Cornwall. We would certainly like to book again.
Welch cottage is absolutely beautiful. It is immaculate, cosy and has everything you could need. We had a wonderful week and we didn’t want to leave.
Highly recommend.
Lovely stay in lovely cottage. My only comment is the number of huge tractors which were thundering past the house. We didn’t feel safe walking the dog on the narrow lanes due to this although obviously this would be seasonal. The house is comfortable and well equipped and the back garden is a very pretty sun trap.. Overall enjoyed our visit.
Welch’s cottage is beautiful and in a rural quiet location. Perfectly situated to visit all the attractions of the North Cornwall coast. We loved Port Isaac. We had plenty of room as a family of six adults and a small dog. Lovely enclosed garden for the dog. Very helpful owners, would highly recommend.
Lovely cottage, as a dog owner would 100% recommend. Has all the facilities and amenities you need. One recommendation would be a handrail on the top of the stairs. Great location to explore North Cornwall. Thank you for the Prosecco and milk upon arrival.
Excellent property, as per description, all facilities worked, showers were great, host was prompt in replying to queries, nice welcome pack of essentials, milk, biscuits, proscecco.... nice secluded patio with furniture. Property in tiny hamlet well off the beaten track, but only 15 minutes to Port Isaac, and tintagel, 20 minutes to Rock.
Great-sized cottage and very comfortable with 4 adults, 2 children and our dogs. Communication with the property owner was fantastic. Really lovely and peaceful. Well equipped. As in the property details, a car is definitely needed, but lots not far away. Highly recommend Polzeath beach. Would stay again.
We have had a lovely stay at Welch's Cottage. It has everything you need and more! It was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, very comfy, well equipped, has a beautiful garden and the peaceful & quiet area was just what we needed. Its a great base for exploring other areas of Cornwall. There is no light pollution from street lights so the view of the dark skies and stars from the garden is fabulous and worth stepping out onto the patio to view.
There were only 3 of us, so very spacious and would also be plenty of room for 5 or 6. Cottage was well equipped and all instructions were clear and concise. Nice touch to have tea, coffee, sugar, milk, locally made cake and a bottle of prosecco on arrival.
Generally very clean, except for bath mat. Generally very comfortable, although matress in master bedroom could do with replacement.
All in all a great cottage and lovely location.
The house was really well equipped and we had excellent instructions and communication from the owner.

Lovely cottage with great facilities
Very comfortable, very well equipped inside and out and it's cool in the heat but with great heating to be warm and cosy on chillier evenings. Perfect location for bodyboarding at Trebarwith Strand and easy drive to shop in Wadebridge and visit the lovely beaches of Trevose Head. Easy parking space and room for the 4 bikes we brought along.
It was hard to find as there was a diversion but we enjoyed every minute. unfortnately due to weather conditions we could only use outside seating on first eventing, but the house is also great inside :-) Missed nothing at all

Perfect family cottage
We spent a lovely week at Welches Cottage. The property was clean and has all the home comforts we needed, including a cot, high chair and stair gates suitable for our 2 year old. The cottage was very clean, well stocked and even had cake on arrival. It is perfect for families and groups with a lovely outdoor space. The pictures so not do it justice. We would definately go back particularly as the location is so beautiful and well placed for lovely beaches.
Welch Cottage is very comfortable and Sharon was very helpful. It is extremely well equipped - we loved the wood burner and lots of sofas in the sitting room, and the kitchen had absolutely everything we needed for a slap up New Year's Eve dinner. The showers are great, the only tiny (really tiny) let down was the size of the towels which were a bit small. We're planning to return in the summer to take advantage of the patio, bbq and french windows!

Gorgeous cottage and garden!
The cottage has got beautiful traditional features like Cornish slate and a huge fireplace with log burner, but it is also modern and very clean. It was so well equipped with everything we could possibly have needed, which was wonderful. The cottage is well located as you are within easy travelling distance of many, many gorgeous beaches and coves, and places of interest like Bude, Padstow and The Eden Project. We love Cornwall and have our favourite places to go. But this holiday we discovered Port Quin for the first time... where we got engaged on the cliff top! So a very special place and holiday for us :-)
Sharon, the owner, was so kind and helpful with anything that we needed. She also made us feel very welcome with the milk, fresh flowers and cake left for us on our arrival!
A gorgeous cottage and garden - we would definitely consider returning!
