Perfect rural location

On the edge of Bodmin moor, walked every day. Superb location, only 8 miles from nearest coast. Well equipped property, very clean. Highly recommend.

Lovely secluded location

Owner supplied a ‘home from home’. Well equipped kitchen ( though the top cupboards are too high for anyone under 5’2”) and comfortable sitting room with picture windows. The shower room was a little problematic given the floor was uneven and the shower head was fixed and high up (not very female friendly!). The 2 outside door locks were extremely difficult to turn - maybe some WD40 may help? But our hosts were very helpful and on hand. We loved the convenience of their enclosed orchard as a good space for exercising our dog off lead. The cottage is in a lovely part of the country.

Response from VrboOwner on 9 Sept 2026
Thank you for your kind review! I just wanted to add a little context for future guests - the shower is in a wet-room configuration with the drainage built into the tiled floor itself, which means that the part of the wet room floor immediately under the shower head slopes gently downwards towards the drain (otherwise all the water would go everywhere!). This is of course the same reason the high-flow shower head is a fitted one. When making any decision about usability / accessibility, it is always a challenge to balance the needs of different visitors. Many people with mobility difficulties find stepping in and out of shower trays with lips, and negotiating screens and barriers, to be a problem, and find a wet-room to be easier. The listing photos show the full shower configuration. I'm sorry that in this case you found the design wasn't ideal for your needs.

Enjoyable stay

Lovely property in the middle of the countryside along very narrow roads. We had a small dog, so ideal for him, although all three gates in the garden were wide, so he could get through them, which may be an issue, if you want your dog secure. It is well equipped and has a beautiful garden/terrace area. Hosts are lovely and live next door, so handy if you need any information etc. About half an hour to the coast a 15 minutes to the nearest shop. Tesco nearest large store. All in all would recommend this property.

Hosts are welcoming and provided good communications before and during stay. All in all excellent stay in great quality quiet location. We would stay again with no hesitations

Perfect base for exploring Cornwall

Just back from a truly amazing summer week in Cornwall. This eco-build holiday cottage had everything we needed for our first ever family visit to Cornwall. Kate & Nigel give a warm welcome and communication was open and easy. The cottage was exceptionally clean and supplied everything we needed., clean towels and bedding, comfy, firm beds and the kids were grateful for the WiFi and smart TV. The washing machine was a welcomed utility for a family of four who spent every day on the beach and needed to freshen our towels etc at the end of the day. The only point to highlight is that the cottage was tricky to find. (We drove passed the turning 4-5times before realising) and Do not rely on sat nav directions. The nearby Rising Sun Inn is a good pinpoint to work from. Otherwise the location is a great base as close to the A30 making it easy to explore Cornwall. We will book up for next year as soon as we can…thanks again Kate & Nigel.

Exceeded our high expectations

From reading other reviews we had high expectations of Little Crifts and we certainly were not disappointed. It is in a great location for reaching either the north or south coast and is then a peaceful and comfortable place to return at the end of the day, with excellent kitchen facilities and plenty of space to relax. The bed was SO comfortable, the towels were huge and fluffy, and there were lovely details like fresh eggs for us, flowers on the table, maps of the area to borrow and a welcoming snack for the dog! As has been said by other reviewers, Kate and Nigel are perfect hosts - friendly and helpful but unobtrusive. We really would recommend LIttle Crifts and hope to visit again - hopefully when the local pub is up and running again!

A lovely spot

A very comfortable chalet in a quiet, peaceful location. Kate was keen to ensure that everything was satisfactory for us. The rugged beauty of Bodmin Moor is nearby, and the north and south Cornish coasts only around an hour away.

Beautifully located, tranquil and immaculate!

Our stay at Little Crifts Cottage was genuinely faultless. The location was spot on for us, as it was peacefully quiet and secluded yet easily accessible for main roads to wherever we went, and during our week we explored the North and South coast of Cornwall as well as St Ives. We loved Trebarwyth Strand beach / cove which was 25min away, as beautiful, fun, not overrun and also great for our dog (didn't see any dog mess there at all either). Had a good cafe and shop there too. Would recommend local pub too for friendly service and delicious food. The accomodation itself was spotless, and had every implement and provision we needed! We loved coming back to the accomodation at the end of days exploring as the cottage itself was a treat to relax and eat in. Super comfy beds! The contained field/orchard was also perfect for our dog to run in and she couldn't get out. Kate and Nigel were really friendly, unobtrusive hosts who had thought of everything, and we especially appreciated the delicious fresh eggs and home baked biscuits thank you! They were also easy to get hold of with queries. All in all, we'd recommend this place to anyone who asked, and feel it would be suitable for both couples and families alike. And if unlike us you don't have a dog - you'd never know any had been in there anyway, as it really is immaculate. Thank you Kate and Nigel! :)

Neat cottage in lovely rural surroundings.

Great cottage with everything you could need, comfortable, very clean and the owners are very helpful and accommodating. The home made biscuits and eggs from the owners hens were also very welcoming on arrival. The location is great to explore North Cornwall and being close to the A30 was very handy to get around.

Brilliant, quiet and would stay again.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property had everything we could need and the fresh eggs and baked oat cookies were very well received. Perfectly located for travelling around most of Cornwall and 10 mins from the main road. If you have a low car, you have to take it very easy on the farm track, but that’s no problem as it worries the sheep less. Overall we were very pleased with our choice and would definitely stay again Ross & Marie

We enjoyed our stay very much, in this modern cottage. The facilities were brilliant. Kate and Nigel were extremely welcoming, as they live in the house beside. A place easy to access to all the main roads, so getting to anywhere is very easy. A place we can highly recommend. Thanks again for the fresh eggs and homemade cookies.

Fantastische cottage in mooie landelijke omgeving

Wij, gezin met 2 kinderen, hebben ontzettend genoten tijdens ons verblijf in deze cottage. Van alle gemakken voorzien, met zorg ingericht en super schoon. Het contact met de eigenaren verliep heel prettig. Een goede uitvalsbasis voor allerlei uitstapjes, zoals strand en natuurgebieden. We gaan zeker nog een keer terug.

Modern & very comfortable cottage!

Very much enjoyed our stay. Brand new and very comfortable accom, all modern facilities and spotlessly clean. Our hosts were extremely welcoming, and were easy to contact if you need to ask any questions about anything, as they live in the house beside. Easy access to all the main roads, so getting to anywhere is very easy, especially the lovely north Cornish coast. Highly recommend the place, and will hopefully return again.
