Shazia August 2024

“It was a lovely experience from start to finish.”

As soon as I stepped in, I felt at ease. Comfortable beds, huge shower and a well equipped kitchen added to the appeal. The village around the corner had everything one needs, big Co-op, pharmacy, fish & chip shop, ice cream shop, nice restaurants, bridge with it's own pebble beach and river running through, massive playground, very quaint and idyllic. We also had the pleasure of meeting the hosts and they were so charming and friendly. Perfect family home for five and I wished I stayed longer. I would love to come back again.

“Thank you, this was a lovely property to stay in.”

It was very clean, well finished and fully equipped. Parking and outdoor space is ample. There were lots of thoughtful touches that made sure we had everything we needed to have a confortable stay. It is on a busy road, but very close to a range of good local amenities as well as several of the main Cornish attractions. It's a very easy walk to get a train to Penzance/St Ives and north to Cardiff. This is a hidden gem.

- Mel, June 2024

Thank you for the great feedback. We are really pleased that you enjoyed the property as well as the outside space, and the local area. We would be very happy to welcome you back again sometime soon. Property Owner
John June 2024

“’This was my second visit to 2 old talbot cottage.”

I returned for a longer stay as I was so impressed by both the cottage and the area when I stayed in Dec 2023 Upon arriving in June 2024 I was pleased to find that the landlords had added a considerable outdoor seating area with wonderful views of the historic town of Lostwithiel. I would recommend a stay here as there is ample parking, a large high pressure shower in a clean, modern, well appointed cottage. It is also situated in ideal location from which to explore the wider area, which offers a range of activities to suit all interests. I was lucky enough to run into the landlords while they were preparing the cottage next door and they were professional, very friendly and were genuinely interested in ensuring the cottage provided me a with pleasant, relaxing stay in a wonderful location

- John, June 2024

Thank you for the wonderful feedback comments. We are so pleased that you enjoyed the outdoor seating area, as well as the parking and the cottage itself. We are really pleased that that you had a relaxing break, and will be very happy to welcome you back again sometime soon. Property Owner

Anita September 2023

“Beautifully clean and very well equipped.”

Lovely cottage with all you need and very central for exploring Cornwall. We didn't take our dog but if you do you would need to check the gate is shut before letting it outside. Great to have the off road parking.

- Anita, September 2023

Thank you for the feedback, we always like to hear good things about our cottage. We are very happy that you found everything that you needed. We would love it if you brought your dog next time. Looking forward to your return. Property Owner

Stuart September 2023

“Difficult to find any fault with this property, everything has been thought of ...”

Difficult to find any fault with this property, everything has been thought of and there are some very nice extras including bottle of wine and dog treats on arrival The quality of the furnishings is excellent and it is very well equipped One observation though, it would definitely benefit from some form of blinds or netting at windows as there is very little privacy from people outside

- Stuart, September 2023

Thank you for your great feedback and lovely comments. We are really pleased that you found everything that you needed. We do hope that you will come again soon. You will be made very welcome. Property Owner
Jasmine August 2023

“We had a lovely stay at old talbot cottages.”

It was perfect for our family with a stair gate and high chair all set up for us when we arrived. The house was very comfortable with everything we needed including some board games and toys for the kids. We also found the email with local info and tips very helpful. The local curry house was delicious, as were the butcher’s pasties and the kids loved splashing in the shallow river in the village. Also recommend the ice cream shop. Can’t wait to come back.

- Jasmine, August 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are really pleased that you found everything that you needed, for yourselves as well for the children. We do hope that you will visit again soon. Property Owner

Karen July 2023

“This cottage is light, bright and modern inside yet still provides a cosy feel.”

The owners welcomed us with a bottle of wine and the invitation to arrive earlier than stated once the changeover was complete. We appreciated all the little extras in terms of equipment that are really helpful on a self-catering holiday. Lostwithiel is central for the visits we needed to make to the South, North and West coasts so an ideal location It was carnival week while we were there and we thoroughly enjoyed the jazz band playing in the pub across the road. I would definitely recommend this comfortable accommodation to other families. Karen.

- Karen, July 2023

Thank you for the lovely comments about our property. We are so pleased that you found our place cosy, light and bright. Carnival week is a good time to visit, and gives an extra special vibe to the town. Thank you for your recommendations. We do hope to welcome you back again. Property Owner
Sharon July 2023

“Great location with private parking which is hard to find in Lostwithiel.”

The property was clean and comfortable, having everything we could need for a week's stay. Lovely, well appointed, kitchen diner, lots of comfy seating in the living room. Very comfortable beds with duvets that were just the right tog for the season. Some great local pubs. Just a 2 minute walk to the recreation ground, and in the car park of the community centre some great pizza on Mondays and Mexican food on Fridays.

- Sharon, July 2023

Thank you for the great feedback. We are particularly pleased that you have mentioned our parking, which is indeed a bonus for the town. We are glad that you found everything that you needed, and that furniture/beds etc are all comfortable. We hope that you will come and stay again, we will make you very welcome. Property Owner

“Lovely cottage, beautifully decorated and furnished, in great location.”

Chose Lostwithiel as a base for exploring the area, but it turned out to be a really interesting town to stay in, with a lot of history. Worth revisiting. Met the owners who were friendly and helpful.

Old Talbot Cottages

Old Talbot Cottages consists of two wonderful holiday homes resting at the heart of the quaint town of Lostwithiel in the popular holiday destination of Cornwall. The collection offers shared, off-road parking, a rarity in the town and a close proximity to the centre of Lostwithiel where you'll find all of your essential amenities, making it perfectly suited for families and friends looking to explore Cornwall. You can savour fresh fish and chips as you soak in the sights with a walk along the banks of the River Fowey, enjoy a well-deserved drink in the beer garden at The Globe Inn, or pick up some last-minute ingredients with a trip to the Co-op. Immerse yourself in the local history with a tour of Lostwithiel Museum, or marvel at the medieval remains of Restormel Castle, dating back to the 13th century and offering panoramic views across the surrounding countryside from its position on the hilltop. Or take the family to spend a fun-filled day out at Porfell Wildlife Park & Sanctuary, where you can come face-to-face with a variety of exotic animals and birds, wander through the ancient woodland, or explore the authentic African Plains village, with traditional huts built with mud and wicker. The cottages also lie near the Eden Project, a world-famous eco-park made up of biome domes nestled in a reclaimed clay pit, home to the largest indoor rainforest in the world as well as a vibrant botanical garden, promising a fascinating experience for all the family. Jump in the car and journey to the nearby Carlyon Bay, where thrill-seekers can try their hand at jet skiing or surfing, or for a more leisurely experience, bask in the sun's rays with a good book as you lounge on the sand. Old Talbot Cottages are expertly positioned for guests to unlock and explore all the wonders of the Cornish coast and countryside.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.

About the location

LOSTWITHIEL

Bodmin 5.5 miles; Fowey 7 miles.

A delightfully peaceful country town, nestling in the Fowey river valley amid the woods and fields that characterise the area. Renowned as a centre for the antiques trade, there are several shops and dealers in the town, as well as a fine collection of country pubs, restaurants and a thriving farmer’s market. Lanhydrock House (NT) and gardens is just 3 miles away, while the fabulous Boconnoc House, Eden Project, shipwreck museum and tall ships harbour at Charlestown, and the picturesque fishing villages of Mevagissey, Fowey and Padstow, with the famous Rick Stein restaurants, are all within easy driving distance. The tumbling Atlantic surf, long sandy beaches and dramatic coastline of the north coast, including at the renowned Newquay, make for great days out and there is also chance to enjoy river canoeing, biking, hiking and leisurely walks in this lovely area. The friendly locals also have ongoing activities, such as the raft race, the famous tug of war, Carnival week and seagull outboard motor races. The river Fowey runs from the town on its 8 mile journey through the fields and wooded valleys to the gentler southern coast, a natural paradise for those who love the sea. Centrally placed, with much to do and see in the immediate area, Lostwithiel is the perfect choice for those seeking a break away from the hectic pace of the tourist resorts.
