Staying at the Old Cobbler’s Cottage was fantastic! Great location in Port Isaac that was close to the harbor and many wonderful restaurants. The cottage was restful and just perfect for us. We hope to return again.

It is a very beautiful, well-furnished apartment but we were frustrated by problems large and small. Response from the property manager to address issues took several hours/days. Carefully followed instructions for the central radiator failed to turn it on. The TV (or the remote) failed to work. A clothes hanger fell off the wall, as did a heavy kitchen cabinet panel. The photo of the shared patio is deceptive. What you see in reality is mostly trash and recycle receptacles. Internet in Port Issac (and Cornwall) is spotty. Port Issac is gorgeous and friendly so don’t miss it. Take the Doc Martin walking tour! And go see Tintagel and Tintagel castle. Take all the village and surrounding walking paths. Spectacular views!
