Great location short walk from the coastal path. This is our 3rd stay and it never disappoints. A home from home with everything you need extremely clean and comfortable. A huge thank you to the hosts.
Faultless stay at Singing Cottage. All 100% on point:CommunicationCleanliness (And I am a clean freak!)Location (Sooo quiet)GardenCloseness to seaKitted out kitchenEverything you could need was there, will be booking again
Great for a family holiday a short walk from Port Isaac and within 10 or 20 minutes’ drive of several great beaches. The accommodation was clean, spacious and the owner had clearly thought carefully about what visitors were likely to need during their stay. Would certainly recommend to others.
House in immaculate condition as always when we stay. Amazing location with quick access to so many beaches and a lovely stroll down to Port Isaac itself. Thanks for all the yummy cakes and treats!
Excellent cottage everything had been thought of right down to the cream tea and wine and milk in the fridge even a packet of shortbreads !
Beautiful surroundings and garden.
This is the second time that we have stayed at Singing Cottage and we loved it asuch as the first time. The house is beautifully presented and has everything you need, definitely a home from home. Good location for exploring nearby beaches, visiting Port Isaac but also lovely and peaceful.
Such a lovely property very well equipped. Nice touch of a cream tea when we arrived. Very close to the costal path for walks would definitely recommend
We had a lovely stay at this beautiful cottage. The owners have thought of everything to make the holiday perfect. We will definitely come again. Thank you.
Singing cottage was our best holiday home so far . It really felt like a home from home. We loved the peace and quiet in this wonderful countryside. Even our 3 teenagers enjoyed the stay with the beaches and coastpaths. Can be highly recommended!
Such a lovely property, with everything you could possibly need. Extra nice touch of homemade scones and a bottle of fizz wad nice surprise.
Great location to explore, was nice to not use the car.
Singing Cottage is a beautifully located and equipped cottage. We had a fantastic stay and the cottage provided everything we needed to take advantage of the location and the beautiful food and drink in the surrounding area. We were able to divide our time between cooking in the fantastically stocked kitchen and eating out. Pilchards in Port Gaverne is highly recommended. Clive was a quick and helpful host.
Well appointed property which is an ideal base to explore the North Cornwall coast. The property has everything that you could need and the owners were incredibly quick to respond to any queries.
The only slight warning is that the property is at the top of a very steep hill out of Port Isaac - it is demanding even if you are fit. Only a comment ....Would definitely recommend

Glad you had a great week exploring all that North Cornwall offers. Sounds like it was a busy week!
Haven’t used it ourselves but previous guests have used the Port Isaac Shuttle Bus if you don’t want to walk up
the hill. In peak weeks it runs up and down the opposite hill from the car park into the centre of Port Isaac but will also run up Church Hill too which is where SInging Cottage is located.
We have stayed once before and we have chosen to stay again because of its exceptional quality.
Everything is so clean, fresh and welcoming. All appliances work and are maintained to a high standard. It is well equipped everything provided for a comfortable enjoyable stay.
The beds are comfortable, plenty of space in the wardrobes and throughout the cottage.
It’s a great location for coastal walks and exploring Cornwall.
Overall Exceptional
Singing Cottage is an outstanding property in the ideal location for exploring the North Cornwall Coast. Perfectly situated, the cottage provides 'a home away from home' and offers a high standard of comfort and amenity in close proximity to the South West Coastal Path. Picture perfect Port Isaac is only a short stroll away and other well known destinations can easily be reached by car in a relatively short time. Carolyn and Clive were superb hosts who went to great lengths to ensure everything ran smoothly during our stay. Thankyou.

Lovely , well equipped cottage.
We have just returned home from a truly lovely week in Singing Cottage.
The cottage was beautifully presented and well equipped with just about everything you could need - we felt very 'at home'
Our grandchildren enjoyed the selection of toys provided and the 'Wi' -a lovely thought- and had we needed, a good selection of beach things.
The cottage is in an ideal location, walking distance to Port Isaac!! and lovely beaches within an easy drive . We also walked some of the coastal path experiencing fabulous views.
All in all we had a lovely time and would love to return in the future.
Thank you for allowing us to share your cottage.

Many thanks for your lovely review of your recent stay at Singing Cottage. It's really valuable to get feedback and really pleasing to hear you had such a good stay. Thank you too for your letter of thanks that was forwarded- it's very much appreciated!
We look forward to you returning to Singing Cottage in the future!
Kind Regards
We spent 10 days at this lovely property. As other reviewers have said, the cottage has everything you need and more for a self catering holiday. The rooms are very clean, spacious and homely. Welcome gifts of cake, biscuits, milk, juice were very kindly left for us by the owner. The outdoor area is lovely for sunny days and is one of the reasons we booked the cottage. It is a steep road into Port Isaac (and back up the hill again) but we managed it twice. It’s in a great location for visits to Padstow, Rock, Tintagel, Boscastle and other places of interest. Those of you familiar with Cornwall will be aware of the narrow roads which we found a bit daunting at first but soon got used to them. All in all a fantastic holiday and would definitely recommend this lovely cottage.

Would give more than 5 stars if I could!
We had a wonderful week in this beautiful bungalow. We felt at home from the minute we arrived as absolutely everything has been provided. I always believe in paying a bit more for quality self-catering accommodation, but this was the best of the best. The place is beautifully decorated in a modern style with a seaside theme, spotlessly clean, and is so spacious that our party of four adults, a baby and a dog were very comfortable. The weather wasn’t as good as it had been in the weeks before our holiday so we didn’t get to relax in the garden, but there were several beaches within easy driving distance and we did the walk down to Port Isaac many times. It’s a bit of a climb back up the hill but we resisted the shuttle bus! There were lots of lovely walks for the dog in the fields surrounding Singing Cottage. I would point out that the garden is not enclosed so if your dog is an escape artist like ours you have to keep an eye on them. There was a lovely welcome gift of cookies, flowers and milk, thank you so much Clive! I would thoroughly recommend this lovely bungalow.

Home from home in atemberaubender Lage über dem Küstenort Port Isaac
Wir waren sehr beeindruckt über die netten Kleinigkeiten zum Empfang im Ferienhaus Singing Cottage!
Der Check-in hat aufgrund des Schlüsseltresorsystems gut geklappt und das Cottage ist super ausgestattet, sehr sauber und sehr liebevoll mit kleinen Dingen wie ein Beach House dekoriert.
Viele Schlafmöglichkeiten und Sitzmöglichkeiten im Wohnzimmer und auf der schönen Terrasse, sowie super Ausstattung der Küche.
Vielen lieben Dank für die schöne und sehr ruhige Zeit, die uns die Gastgeber Clive und Carolyn bereitet haben!
A gorgeous stay in Singing Cottage. Perfect for our stay. Excellent contact with the hosts for any issues. Would definitely stay here again or recommend it to others!
The best cottage we have stayed in by a mile. Beautifully equipped and furnished with everything we needed… even down to the beach chairs in the cupboard, coffee, bbq and tools. The location is stunning, quiet and offers hill top views and wonderful sunsets. Will book again
Singing cottage is a beautifully presented house which is very well equipped with everything you will need. We had some lovely welcome supplies, including dog treats for our dog, the owners thought of everything. It is closely located to port Isaac, walkable down a steep hill. We definitely hope to visit again.
Great home to stay in. Walk into Port Issac is tough up and down heart attack hill! Beautiful peaceful house.
