Excellent apartment finished to a very high specification. We never met the host but one the occasion of needing to contact them they responded immediately. The only disappointment was that due to the trees we could actually see the river. Ideal location for visiting Cornwall including the Eden project Padstow Rock Mevagissey Falmouth etc. Would highly recommend. Would stay again if travelling to Cornwall in the future.

Well located holiday apartment with good starting point for excursions

The holiday apartment is well located, has everything you need and was very clean and tidy. From St. Austell you can easily reach many beautiful destinations and you can also get to the south coast fairly quickly, where you can go on wonderful hikes. The landlords are very nice and friendly. Everything was in immaculate condition. We arrived by car, which is useful for excursions.

Cosy Retreat

The „River Valley Studio“ offers a small but comfortable home on two levels, ideal to explore the area from here. Easy communication with host family, clear rules and the wonderful british hospitality. Everything is available, no extras but just perfect for 2 people. Thank you for giving us a Cornwall Feeling in the middle of green nature and botanical highlights!

without car

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful apartment. It even has a washing machine, although this isn't mentioned in the description.We didn't have a car, but that wasn't a problem as it's easy to get around Cornwall by train and bus from the house: a supermarket is less than a 10-minute walk away and the train station is less than 20 minutes away.

The studio was perfect for our needs and with plenty of space. Of a high standard. Love the fact the kitchen is separate and down stairs. St Austell was a bit of a disappoint but the studio is perfect for travelling around to lots of areas. Definitely would recommend

St. Austell Gover

A very quiet studio in a nice neighborhood at the margin of St. Austell, clean and rather spacy, with a full-fledged kitchen. It's a 20 min walk from the bus and railway station. Good if you are quite mobile: the southern and the northern coast is within easy reach. A well-sorted co-op is within walking distance. A wooded ravine provides a nice walk, the next scenic coast (near Mevagissey) is about 15 min away by car, the harbour of St. Austell 10 min. The hosts are very helpful and can give a lot of helpful advices!

Cornwall

I was alone, 80 years old and without a car The accommodation was too far from town centre and there was nothing to eat on my arrival which was late on a Sunday evening I can take responsibility for this but it would have been helpful to pop in notes you do need a car …..

Dear Julie. We’re very sorry you were disappointed with the location of our holiday let in proximity to the town centre. Distance to the town & train station (you chose to came by train) is all included in the description before you book. I also confirmed this when you messaged us. There is also a taxi rank at the station, lots of little bus stops and local taxi firms. The town is a short walk & the station a 10/15 minute walk. But this does depend on the individuals walking ability. We have many many guests who come by train. As discussed when you arrived (& again provided in the description & welcome pack beforehand), the holiday let is self-catering. We kindly provide tea, coffee, milk, sugar, salt & pepper, many other small items and a welcome treat! I don’t understand why you expected any more than this? But I’m sorry again that you were disappointed. Kind Regards.
