Elizabeth October 2024

“Fantastic property in a great location for exploring Cornwall.”

Great variety of quiet footpaths direct from the property. Lovely spacious property, had everything we needed and welcome hamper was much appreciated. Great parking and the hot and cold water tap/shower for washing muddy paws and boots is a great addition. Loved the secure fully enclosed garden and seating options though weather didn't allow us to utilise this. Would highly recommend this property!

“The only reason I gave 4 stars for the listing not 5, was that cottage is immaculate and peaceful, but wasn't easy to find using the instructions given.”

I would suggest that the post code is not used in the Sat-Nav. To find the cottage I would suggest that the you key Plain-An-Gwarry, Marazion (or try Tregurtha Downs Farm, Marazion) into the Sat-Nav. When you arrive in Plain-An-Gwarry, look for a lane opposite the houses, The lane has a "No Through Road" sign. On the left, as you turn into the lane, you will see a sign for Tregurtha Downs Farm and a smaller sign pointing to Puffins Rest. Then, when you come to the farm buildings on your right go through the 2nd gate, and past the buildings on your right. The cottage is tucked behind the buildings.

Soo August 2024

“We only stayed at the cottage for 1 night.”

Although the property was absolutely beautiful, spacious and well equiped it was very remote with a 4 mile round trip to walk to the nearest pubs / restaurants. As our mobility was not good this was not an option. 2 points about the cottage ,the bed seemed rather small and we could only get BBC on the TV. I think this property would be more suited to people who like to do a lot of walking .

- Soo, August 2024

Thankyou for taking the time to write a review , was disappointed to hear you found us to be remote for you , will definitely takes your comments on board Many thanks Emma & Andrew Property Owner
Trish August 2024

“We had a fantastic stay at Puffins Rest.”

Judith July 2024

“Very comfy with a large living space.”

Modern decor, all very clean and well presented. Secure garden perfect for two greyhounds to have freedom to potter about. Loo seat fell off but was fixed in minutes by a nice cheerful lady. A field walk straight from the door and only a short drive to shops and beaches.

- Judith, July 2024

Thankyou so much for taking the time to write a positive review it means a lot to us to get good feedback, glad you and your doggies enjoyed you stay with us Many thanks Emma & Andrew Property Owner

Derek June 2024

“A wonder recently converted property superclean comfotable an quiet.”

Great setting on a farm and livery stables. Has a lawn and, patio with outdoor furniture with the most wonderful full width sliding glass doors facing west. The owners have put a lot of thought into with many lovely welcome touches including 2 x towelling dressing gowns. Not many places have a bath and shower. Cant recommend highly enough.

- Derek, June 2024

Thankyou so much for your amazing review we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and loved the property, thanks for taking the time to write the review it’s much appreciated, maybe see you both again in the future , Many thanks Emma &Andrew Property Owner
Brian June 2024

“We had a very enjoyable stay at Puffin’s rest.”

Thankyou for allowing us to bring our two dogs which was our main consideration when booking. The property is really well equipped and therefore allows a relaxing holiday immediately on arrival. Our weather was good so the sunny garden and excellent furniture was a real bonus. Our only criticism was the 4’ 6 “ bed being a touch small and firm. We did however get used to it after one or two nights.

- Brian, June 2024

Hello Brian Thankyou so much for your positive feedback, we are very happy you both and your dogs enjoyed your stay , we have only been open 5 months so all feedback is very important to us , it’s a new bed so should soften over time but happy it didn’t upset your stay Many thanks Emma Property Owner
Clare April 2024

“This was the nicest place we have stayed.”

- Clare, April 2024

Hello Claire Thankyou so much for your messages and great feedback means a lot to us you enjoyed your stay , hope to see you again one day ,many thanks Emma &Andrew Property Owner
Jeremy April 2024

“We were very impressed by the quality and cleanliness of the house.”

The welcome pack was much appreciated and the dog biscuits were a great touch, little things like that make such a difference. The location was ideal for exploring the far west of Cornwall, but away from the ‘maddening crowds’. The what3words address for finding you worked brilliantly.

- Jeremy, April 2024

Hello Jeremy Thankyou so much for taking the time to write a positive review , we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us at puffins rest, it’s so nice to get good feedback for our new venture Regards Emma&Andrew Property Owner

Thankyou both for you for your lovely review, was lovely to meet you both and maybe see you again soon Many thanks Emma & Andrew Property Owner
Raymond March 2024

“We had a wonderful stay at Puffins Rest,the accommodation was first class and very spacious for a two person let.”

The weather wasn’t the best for our stay but we did go in April,but the outdoor garden space and the facilities would be something to enjoy in better weather. For us it was a little bit out of the way but that wouldn’t put us off returning for another stay.

- Raymond, March 2024

Hello Raymond Thankyou so much for taking the time to write a positive review, I’m glad you enjoyed your stay with us and yes the weather was not kind to you, hopefully be better next time , Many thanks again Emma & Andrew Property Owner

Sandra February 2024

“Lovely property.”

Very modern.everything you need ...sadly will not be returning only because furniture not suitable for a couple of old crocs celebrating 48 yrs marriage. We found the benches at the dining room table a little challenging. However I would recommend this property. To familyand friends.xx

“Could do with a bit clearer destination instructions, we were so close to it at ...”

Could do with a bit clearer destination instructions, we were so close to it at the end spend half an hour going round in circles, cold do with a little sign on the gate wall

- John, February 2024

Hello John , Thankyou for taking the time to review our property , we have now put some signs up so thanks for your suggestion , Many thanks Emma and Andrew Property Owner
Mark February 2024

“The directions to the cottage needs a sign post once you reach Gears Lane, possibly next to the Livery Stables sign.”

There also needs to be a sign once you reach the Livery stables to confirm where the cottage is. However, we had a super break in an amazing cottage!

- Mark, February 2024

Hello thanks for the positive feedback I’m so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us , it’s great to hear your comments and will definitely get some signs sorted Many thanks Emma Property Owner
Marcus January 2024

“Hearing the sound of horses hoofs walking past, the darkest skies you can imagine (at night, no light pollution), the place is very tranquil.”

Everybody we met there were very pleasant and happy to talk. Exceptional welcome pack, even included fresh milk in a jug which was a nice touch. Has all you will need for your visit, even a garden hose so you can wash your car down after the Cornish roads. Washing machine and dishwasher fitted, really nice induction hob and large fridge freezer for all your needs. Overall the pictures do not give it justice, we thought we were coming to a small shed like structure, but wow, when you walk through the front door, its totally huge, enough heating to heat the ice caps if you do get cold. And a private garden area large enough for many. the worse part for us was that we had to leave, we could totally have lived there. Perfect in every detail, and they paid attention to detail when they renovated it and kitted it out. am already in talks with the family who live close by to come visit again. travel lodge or premier inn?? no thanks, this will be the first place we look for now.

- Marcus, January 2024

Hello Marcus , Thankyou you so much for the lovely feedback , it’s great to hear you both enjoyed our property you were only our third guests as we spent all last year renovating it, it’s so helpful to us to hear you loved it , Thankyou for taking the time to write the review and would be lovely to welcome you and your family back anytime to Puffins Rest Property Owner
Josephine January 2024

“We had the best week at puffins rest, the house had everything you could need and more.”

The location was perfect, the house is located on a farm which was lovely to see so many horses and dogs. The house has wifi, so we could work from home whilst there! We will 100% be returning! Thank you Emma

- Josephine, January 2024

About the location

GOLDSITHNEY

Marazion 1.5 miles; Penzance 4 miles; Helston 11 miles.

A typically Cornish country village with picturesque houses, shops and village pubs, Goldsithney is set back from the coast, thus escaping the main tourist rush, yet lying close to all the main attractions. Dominating the area and just 2 miles away is the off shore island castle of St Michael's Mount - reaching it via the causeway when the tide is out is a must. Right on the doorstep there are fabulous beaches, the coastal path (winding its way over the cliff tops) and plenty of sailing and fishing. Visit Penzance, with its slightly bohemian air, the cliff-top theatre at Minack or the stunningly beautiful fishing villages of Marazion and Mousehole - a superb base for exploring beautiful Cornwall.
