“Great stay at Crift Farm.”

Perfect base for what we wanted to do. Crabbing in Padstow, body boarding in Fistral, watching the sunset on Polkeris beach, adrenaline quarry, Truro, Pendennis Castle, St Catherine’s Castle….to name but a few things! We really enjoyed the hot tub at night and we were lucky enough to have clear night skies and saw the international space station zoom over and also saw a shooting star. Donna is so lovely and will be on hand should you need. Wonderful week at Crift Farm. Best wishes from The McWilliam Family xx

“What a fantastic place and lovely quiet location.”

Crift cottage is a great base to see lots of Devon and Cornwall. When we arrived there was a nice cream tea and bottle of wine waiting for us and the jacuzzi was lovely after a day of adventure. There was a local pub handy for food which we used regularly so confining. The hosts Donna and Ben gave us their mobile number but were not needed but great to know they were there if needed. The only small thing was as dog's are allowed in property there was a lingering small of dog's. Other than that what a brilliant place.

“Wonderfully modern cottage in a very quiet area which provides a brilliant base to explore the surrounding areas and further afield.”

The hosts have really put some time into providing everything you need for an enjoyable stay and they are always on hand to respond to questions/problems promptly. After a hard day exploring or chilling on the beach the hot tub was always a must to relax in and enjoy the outside space into the evening.

“Had a wonderful few days, Donna and Ben were very nice and were on the end of the phone should we need them, this was not necessary as they had thought of everything.”

The cottage was very comfortable and felt very homely. Great cottage, perfect positioning for exploring. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Douglas March 2024

“We have just returned home after spending a fabulous week in this beautiful cottage.”

It was in a great location for seeing all the wonderful sights that Cornwall has to offer and the host Donner was more than helpful, the cottage was very clean and comfortable and the hot tub was so nice to use after our many amazing walks with our pooch Monty, we would definitely book again if we visited Cornwall again.

“The cottage is beautiful in gorgeous surroundings.”

The owners are lovely making you feel welcome and ensuring you have all you need . The hottub was lovely to use and as a family we all enjoyed our stay and cannot wait to return next year. Highly recommend staying here for a quite relaxing break with plenty of things to do nearby, and of course lots of gorgeous cornish beaches.

Nikki September 2023

“Was a lovely clean and well equipped cottage.”

Great base for travelling around from, and fabulous walks from the cottage door. Nothing too much trouble from the owner, she was there if needed but gave us privacy. The hot tub was great and the wine and tea/coffee facilities on arrival were greatly appreciated. Highly recommend this cottage.

“What a gem this is, Donna was extremely helpful and accommodating, the pictures don't do the place justice.”

Fantastic walks near by, lovely pub, very narrow lanes! Brilliant Farm shop, very quiet, hot tub is wonderful, glass of bubbly and watch the satellites go over in the evening. We will be back.

“A delightful cottage with good facilities and helpful owners next door.”

Privacy respected and dogs well catered for. As I suffer from fibromyalgia life can be difficult some days and we are elderly people but we have no complaints and would highly recommend them. Ros and Ray GOALEN

Victor September 2022

“This was an excellent property had everything that was required to enjoy an excellent holiday.”

Property was lovely and clean and hot tub was fantastic after a lot of walking during our days exploring. There’s a lovely pub in Lanlivery where we enjoyed many of our evening meals. Only downside was the extremely narrow roads but to get an idyllic setting that was part and parcel I suppose. Hosts were fabulous also

“We had a lovely stay at Donna and Ben’s place, the hot tub was a real bonus and the secure garden for our Dog Milo was good too.”

Jenna July 2022

“Gorgeous cottage beautifully clean, owners are lovely and although right next door it felt private and they didn’t intrude unless we needed something.”

Hot tub was such a wonderful bonus , we would certainly return .

“Beautiful well equipped cottage in quiet location made extra special by the fabulous hot tub!”

! Very dog friendly, just what we were looking for. Thank you!.

Jane May 2022

“Everything we wanted and needed.”

If it works for our dogs then that is half the battle won. Walks on the doorstep, 15 minutes from both Cardinham Woods and Par Beach and much more if you have the time and weather on your side. The garden is completely enclosed,it is peaceful (save for a few cows)and the sofa is magic for whatever combination of guests decides they want to get on that particular night. Everything is well presented and in good condition but the cottage is actually dog friendly rather than dog tolerant as is normally the case. We have just booked for 2023 (2 weeks this time). Great value and real countryside!

“What a wonderful home from home Crift Farm Cottage is.”

Beautifully decorated, good quality furnishings, bed linens, and all spotlessly clean. The garden is great for dogs and kids and the hot tub a HUGE bonus for the adults! We had everything that we needed for a great holiday. It was good to have Donna close by for recommendations for walks and trips out. The village pub, The Crown, just under new management is welcoming and serves great food. Although there are no shops in the village, when arriving to the cottage from the A390 there are 2 farm shops (the one in the village is a community enterprise I think so worth supporting) Sainsbury's also deliver if you want to order shopping online. The nearest convenience shop is in Parr about 10 mins drive. Parr Beach is also good for the dogs, they have run of the place all year round. Download the Just Park App so you're not caught out without change for the meter but it is free after 5pm. Lanlivery is well placed for visits to either coast. about 15 ins from Bodmin too. We really enjoyed our stay and cannot fault Crift Farm Cottage at all. Thank you Donna.

Jeremy April 2022

“We had a wonderful fortnight at Crift Farm Cottage.”

The area was fantastic for our 2 greyhounds plenty of walks on the doorstep. The hot tub was a lovely way of relaxing and Donna and Ben were friendly and helpful Hope to meet them again sometime in the future

Abbigail October 2021

“Crift Farm Cottage was the perfect get away for us!”

It is such a beautiful cottage and super cosy. The hot tub was such a lovely bonus and was the perfect place to watch the stars on a clear night. Thank you both for such a beautiful place!

- Abbigail, October 2021
Jane September 2021

“The cottage was really cosy in a really peaceful location.”

The hosts were friendly and happy to suggest things to do in the area which were dog friendly. The cottage was super clean and had everything we needed. It was located centrally in Cornwall and so all attractions wasn’t too far away. We loved this cottage and would consider booking again when visiting this part of the country.

- Jane, September 2021
Angela August 2021

Robin June 2021

“Crift Farm Cottage couldn't have been any better!”

It was just what we needed for a relaxing getaway. The cottage is fabulous, being modern and kitted out with everything you can think of, especially if you have dogs, but still keeping a cosy feel to it. Located just a mile from village of Landlivery, the Crown pub, with excellent food, is in walking distance. There are many local walks you can start from the cottage, but if you want to go further a field its excellently located for travelling around Cornwall. The hosts were super friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend and we shall be booking again.

- Robin, June 2021
Karen June 2021

“Beautiful location which was quiet and peaceful.”

The cottage was very well equipped and everything was immaculate. The garden was totally enclosed so we didn’t have to worry about our dog and the hosts were lovely and welcoming. The hot tub was definitely a winner too! We would have booked to visit again next year but the price had increased by such an amount that it made it unreasonable for us. If you have the money and want peace and quiet then visit this lovely cottage.

“Had such a wonderful time in this beautiful cottage.”

It completely exceeded expectations. The owners are very friendly and helpful but also very respectful of your privacy, despite living next door. The cottage is very secluded and peaceful and a perfect place to relax, the hot tub especially making the week extra special. It’s a great location to explore the rest of Cornwall and we would highly recommend.
