For a second time we visited Lower Trengale Cottages near Liskeard, and had a wonderful weekend. On this occasion we stayed in "Thyme" cottage - interesting layout on three levels. Very clean, comfortable and well fitted out. Only two of us, but this would be ideal for a small family. Again, we found Kay & Mike very hospitable and helpful. Thoroughly enjoyed our trips to Polperro and Tintagel - both short drives from the cottages, and very impressive.
No hesitation in recommending this well managed accommodation!

From the moment we arrived, when we were greeted with a Cornish Cream Tea, we were made to feel very welcome by the owners (Mike & Kay). Thyme cottage was larger than our need (only 3 guests plus dog) but was ideal for my wife's mother as her bedroom & bathroom was only down a couple of steps. The other bedrooms & bathrooms were in the downstairs so may not be so good for those with mobility problems. The bonus of downstairs was that it was cooler than the rest of the cottage which was very welcome as we holidayed when it was very hot !! Mike & Kay were attentive throughout our stay, without being overly so, and recommended places to go and where to eat. We'd certainly advise a meal at the London Inn (in St. Neot) and further afield (25 miles or so) at the Slipway hotel in Port Isaac. The cottage had all the mod cons you'd expect without losing it's character. Could maybe benefit from a larger TV in the lounge and provision of towels (to save on luggage). There's a nice pond (for those wanting to fish or dog exercise) on the farm or a few miles away is the picturesque Golitha falls - an ideal place to sit & read or dip your feet in the river. There's plenty to do & see in this part of Cornwall and it's not far to the North Coast for a change of scenery. Would definitely consider renting here again if coming back to Cornwall.
