“A beautiful cottage in a good location.”

The owners clearly love and use the property, with great touches everywhere making it a really lovely place to stay. The location is great with fantastic views from the property, though as others have said the parking space is quite tight. Comfortable bed, amazing shower, well equipped kitchen and the welcome pack was gratefully received. Why would you need to stay anywhere else?

“A hidden gem in a beautiful, quaint village.”

Loved the outdoor shower and all the quirkiness the house offered! Amazing views and a good base for exploring Cornwall. A very nice welcome pack provided for us by the owners. We loved our stay here and will hopefully be back in the future!

- Sam, September 2024

Hi Sam - thank you for taking time to leave a fabulous review - we are now back home and making the most of the shower we look forward to welcoming you back - thank you again Chris Caroline and Dora Property Owner
Lee September 2024

“We absolutely loved our time in Moons cottage.”

Such a warming welcome with the cake and all the other gestures we found. Perfect location and we all agreed we will come back next year ( a first for us ). Having breakfast out on the terrace was amazing. The shower was wonderful outside too, especially at night with the mood lighting. 10/10 from us and thank you again.

- Lee, September 2024

Hi Lee - we are so thrilled you loved your stay - it’s a very magical place, Golant - the shower - well what can I say - we moving back home in 3 weeks - am so excited for that shower can’t wait - we hope that you can return next year, it’s a hidden gem - Thank you for taking time out to leave this review - it means so much xx Property Owner
Jane July 2024

“Amazing cottage beautiful surroundings and spectacular views.”

The cottage has everything you need and more and extra touch of on arrival gifts including gifts for a dog if you take one . Local kayaking gave new views and villages to the stay as you can get off at a local village for a picnic whilst taking in the views and the area is very dog friendly as are the people. This was an amazing holiday and we were fortunate to have amazing hot weather and would recommend this stay to anyone and thank the owners for offering out such a wonderful cottage .

- Jane, July 2024

Hi Jane Thank you for taking time to leave a wonderful review. You certainly had the weather that week- perhaps we will see you next year? Many thanks Chris Caroline and Dora Property Owner
Claire July 2024

“Moons Cottage and its location are perfect for a relaxing break, the location is stunning and peaceful.”

The owners were lovely and left a cream tea and other food supplies to start off our break, which was very thoughtful! I hope to return soon and enjoy the delights of this beautiful cottage and its surroundings.

- Claire, July 2024

Hi Claire Thank you for taking the time to leave a fab review. It’s a beautiful village and we feel truly blessed to live there - hoping you can make it back next year. Many thanks Chris and Caroline Property Owner
Karen June 2024

“Beautiful property in an amazing location however very difficult to access.”

Not ideal if with elderly visitors otherwise absolutely stunning and everything you would need in a rental property provided.

- Karen, June 2024

Hi Karen - thank you for taking time to leave a lovely review - yes Golant is a beautiful village but unfortunately like most small Cornish riverside villages the parking is limited so we do feel privileged to have two driveways , albeit a little tight. We would love to see you again All the very best Chris and Caroline Property Owner
Julia June 2024

“Quirky, bags of character.”

Definitely not run of the mill I can honestly say that the shower was the best we have ever been privileged to use. The kitchen and breakfast bar was such a great space we easily prepped and cooked even barbecued as everything we needed was provided. One small downside was that we have a fairly large SUV and found that parking in the spaces wasn’t the easiest. As for Golant we are definitely coming back it is a beautiful place with THE best pub within a one minute walk and the staff/ owners made us some excellent food. It was pointless driving anywhere else.

- Julia, June 2024

Hi Julia Thank you for your lovely review. The outside shower is my personal favourite too - can’t wait to get back home later in the year just for that amongst other things. The Fishermans is a great place Nick and his team are brilliant and as you pointed out, great food. We’d love you to return next year. Kind regards Chris and caroline Property Owner
Steven June 2024

“Moons Cottage is a perfect place to stay, relax and get away from the hectic bustles of modern life.”

Extremely well appointed and well maintained. It’s a delight to stay somewhere with a boutique hotel feel, whilst situated in an idyllic quiet Cornish village.

- Steven, June 2024

Hi Steven- thank you so much for the lovely review AND your second visit to Moons - it is a beautiful village with fabulous people and a great vibe. We hope you can visit again next year - all the very best Chris Caroline and Dora Property Owner
Sarah May 2024

“Thank you so much.”

We had a lovely stay - your house is wonderful. Couple of points, I’m very sorry but we managed to break a plate in the dishwasher. Also my car (a huge Volvo) didn’t fit in the front space, which was no problems it was fine in the back car parking space, but it’s getting quite overgrown. It didn’t impact us at all, but I imagine with the good weather forecast it might need to be cut back for future guests.

- Sarah, May 2024

Thank you for your kind review- delighted you had lovely time - point taken on the hedge Property Owner
Michael May 2024

“What a fabulous place to stay, the house is tucked away in a picturesque surrounding with amazing views.”

Caroline the owner was so friendly and kind, made us feel so welcome, even left us some essentials to get started and the home made scones were delicious. The house has everything you need and is very clean and comfortable, there’s an outside shower which is lovely! Location wise, it’s close to all the tourist attractions, Port Isaac isn’t far and is a must if you like Doc Martin. Parking is a bit tight at the property but if you know Cornwall it’s usually like that and has lots of hills to climb. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.

- Michael, May 2024

Hi Michael, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a lovely review. You certainly got out and about. It would be lovely to see you again next year Property Owner
Sharon April 2024

“Property was absolutely stunning.”

Fabulous location. Such a pretty village, the house had everything you need for a relaxing stay. We had a welcome pack left for us which was so thoughtful and a personal card & flowers. A lot of effort made by the owners. Would recommend this property for a relaxing break in a lovely house.

- Sharon, April 2024

Thank you so much for the lovely review - it means so much. We hope you can visit again next year Property Owner

About the location

FOWEY

Lostwithiel 8 miles; Polperro 8 miles

This small town and civil parish lies at the mouth of the River Fowey in south Cornwall. The estuary of the River Fowey forms a natural harbour, which enabled the town to become an important trading centre. There is a wealth of things to see and do in and around the harbour. Whether you enjoy getting out on the water, playing golf or finding out more about the history of the area, you are sure to find something to suit the whole family. Harbour cruises leave the Town Quay regularly in season giving you a superb view of the town, but for the more adventurous, rent your own self-drive boat, kayak or paddle board and explore the waters for yourselves! The town is steeped in history, so why not join a guided tour of either Fowey or Polruan? You can even join an owl experience, play golf, go horse riding or pursue your artistic talents with pottery or painting courses. There is the aquarium, museum and St Catherine's Castle, as well as Readymoney Cove, all waiting to be explored. If you get peckish, or fancy something thirst quenching along the way, there is a plethora of pubs, inns, cafes and restaurants to choose. Whenever you plan to visit, keep a look out for the festivals, fairs, markets and theatre performances on throughout the year. There are many family attractions in the area, including Mevagissey and Charlestown harbours, the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Discover them all from this fantastic base!
