I have stayed in this cottage, numerous times, there is nothing not to like, an ideal location for visiting both coasts, immaculately clean, well equipped and a real home from home, the dog friendly garden is excellent and has secure fencing, the owners are nearby if anything goes wrong but also not intrusive. This is by far the best dog friendly cottage I have stayed in in Cornwall and have already booked again for 2020

Our fifth time here, wonderful away from it all location. Dogs love the enclosed garden and their Bonios on arrival! Victoria is the perfect host - there if you need her, otherwise leaves you to it, which is the perfect balance. The pasty every Tuesday was great after long days strolling along beaches and moorland. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Our very first Cottage holiday with 3 dogs, so was a little apprehensive.
Our very first Cottage holiday with 3 dogs, so was a little apprehensive...what a dream holiday cottage it was, worried for nothing! It really was home from home. Thank you for the cream tea, eggs, milk and bonios on arrival, so lovely to arrive to after a 10 hour journey. Very thoughtful.
The photos of the garden don't do it justice! A lovely secure lawn to let your dogs mill about with no worries of escape....and if there was a way out, my little deaf Chihauhua devil dog would find it!
I can't recommend this place enough!....only negative...we should have booked two weeks instead of one! We are definitely booking again for next year! Thank you from Jo, Michael, Luke, Holly and Val form North Yorkshire

Such a find! Cottage was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The enclosed garden was perfect for our little dogs and we didn't have to worry about them escaping from it. Victoria and Harvey were extremely welcoming and we loved our Cornish tea that was waiting for us on arrival. We will definitely stay there again.

We had a very relaxed and enjoyable stay.
We had a very relaxed and enjoyable stay. Nothing was too much trouble for the owners, they went above and beyond to make us welcome.
The cottage was spotlessly clean.
There were two minor issues, the plastic sheeting on the bed, it made both myself and my partner too hot and our sleep was affected by this. The bed itself was very comfortable. The additional heater/log burner in the living room area did not work, there was times during the afternoon when a heat boost was needed.
The enclosed garden space is a very generous size and very securely done, I had no worries about my dogs being outside alone.

This was my 5th visit to Millies Place, it is in the perfect location to visit both coasts of Cornwall, the setting is so peaceful and relaxing and is the best dog friendly cottage I have visited, the enclosed garden is perfect. Victoria and Harvey are the perfect hosts, on hand if you need anything but not intrusive, I am already looking forward to visiting again.
