“Fabulous cosy cottage in a quiet area.”

Very nice welcome cream tea treats on arrival and the friendly owners Paddy & Kitty are available if any help is needed. The dog enjoyed the freedom of the enclosed garden and I recommend trying the hot tub (even in cooler November weather). The cottage is a good base for exploring both north Cornwall and further south - definitely recommend it for future stays.

“It's perfect.”

Paddy and Kitty are wonderful hosts. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The cottage is wonderful. Comfortable and every thing you could possibly want is there. I was so impressed with the kitchen. I am someone who loves to cook and there was everything I needed. The little touches when you arrive truly make you feel wanted and special. The wine was a great choice, the cream tea and lovely coffee. There was milk in the fridge and butter. The lights were on and it all made us feel so welcome. The hot tub is great fun. The television brilliant. The peace and quite tangible. Watching the rabbits, black! And grey amazing. A perfect holiday. We will hope to go back.

“Fantastic well equipped cottage with the best welcome pack we have ever had!”

Large and private dog proof garden embellished by a hot tub - very popular with the ladies who were walking long distances each day. Great accommodation for 2 couples as the bedrooms and bathrooms are at opposite ends of the open plan living area. Ideally placed for National Trust properties, Launceston and Tavistock with an excellent pub (Springer Spaniel) a short distance away. Owners very helpful. We had a great holiday at Woodcutters.

“We loved our stay at woodcutters cottage.”

The whole place was well equipped, spacious, clean and tidy. The welcome pack was a lovely touch and welcome. Plenty of outdoor space including nice garden and car parking. The hot tub was good and well used although we did manage to get it a little bit too hot one day. The host’s were welcoming and asked us, during the week, if everything was ok. However they were not intrusive. We would recommend this property as we had a great time here.

“Fantastic week at Woodcutter, thanks to all!”

Couldn't ask for more - hot tub was fantastic, garden beautiful and tranquil (and teeming with wildlife!), and the welcome goodies were a lovely treat. No complaints at all and a big thanks to Kitty, Paddy and everyone else.

“We had a lovely, relaxing week at Woodcutters and much appreciated the welcome pack, thank you.”

Very comfortable house with everything you could possibly need along with the peaceful, beautiful garden with it's abundance of wildlife and birdsong. Even the weather was kind to us!

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Woodcutters Barn especially the peace and quiet after a long day exploring.”

The Host had provided everything we needed. We really appreciated the welcome pack of wine, milk, scones and jam. Our dog loved the garden and spent every moment out there. We also loved the wildlife and the views. The downside of the location was that there was nowhere to walk after dinner as the country roads are narrow and there is no pavement. That aside we had a lovely break and would recommend this property. T and G

“Wow what a find!”

We had a perfect week at this beautiful cottage which is set in the most peaceful of locations! You are surrounded by nature, the sounds of the many different birds in the mornings and evenings was so relaxing, especially when immersed in the hot tub! My partner has suffered ill health for a while and this was perfect for him! Paddy was extremely welcoming and full of helpful info. If circumstances allow we will be back again!!

“Even more beautiful than the pictures show, such wonderful hosts who were so welcoming and lovely, and the house was just gorgeous.”

So many wonderful Cornwall and Devon places to stay nearby. Hot tub was a dream

“Peace and quiet….”

wonderful. We were blessed with dry weather…. The garden was lovely for our Newfoundland……. FENCED…. ! The cottage was spacious…. brilliant shower! Just a couple of possible suggestions….. The cooker was maybe on a bit of a ‘lean’ as I had to hold the oven door open with my foot… otherwise it would have swung shut! Some instructions on how to use the cooker would have been handy! Maybe some egg cups and some serving spoons. Generally the kitchen was better equipped than anywhere we have stayed! Fab fridge and freezer and cupboard space. A downside for me personally…. I am somewhat vertically challenged… all I could see in the main bathroom mirror was the top of my head!!!! Some might say that’s all you’d want to see

“Lovely holiday property for our brief stay, plenty of room, probably the only downside was something about which nobody can control - the weather!”

It rained every day except our going home day, but we have had holidays in Cornwall at least once a year for over 30-years now so we know the sun does not shine all of the time.

“The property is beautiful, very well equipped, very clean and a lovely welcome pack.”

Directions were clear and easy to find. The property itself is perfect, my only criticism is the outside space and hot tub. Nowhere in the description did it mention the hot tub was wood fired, and there were not any pictures of the hot tub on the website (this had since changed as I have checked), therefore we were not prepared for this. Upon arrival, the hot tub was not lit, there were no instructions on how to use it, so we were a bit clueless. Eventually got through to the staff on site, who said "oh did you not receive the PDF instructions", no we did not. So he lit it, and we had to wait 4 hours until it was warm enough to use! I was then told they supply two bags of wood, after then it is £5 a bag, again this is not mentioned anywhere on the website, so this wasn't ideal for us. It was a lot.of effort to keep the tub warm enough to use for the week, and there is no way of regulating the temperature of even a thermometer to see what the temperature is, so.then it was the other extreme and it was too hot for my children to use, I could barely put my foot in it. This was the largest negative point for us, it was not easy to use, cost us a lot in wood for the week, and was actually rather stressful to manage, instead of relaxing to use. There was no filter on the tub, the water was filthy after 3 days, the staff came on our last day and added a filter and chemicals, but we had finished by then. This would.put us off coming back, which is a shame as the property itself is so beautiful. The garden is not suitable for small dogs. Although there is a wire fence around, my dog could get through some gaps, and also got her head caught in the wire. I checked before booking how secure the garden is so this was a bit disappointing too. If you have a large dog it would be perfect. Lots of woody area with animal holes dug out, again my small dog got stuck a few times. This meant we couldn't just let her out in the garden, we had to keep her on her lead or stay with us the whole time. Beautiful garden generally, but just not suitable for a small dog. The shop and pub are not really walking distance away, the lanes are very narrow and not suitable for children and dogs. The farm ship 3 miles away is lovely, but is on a main road so again you can't walk, worth a visit though. All in all we had a lovely week, would I recommend? Yes, as long as you don't need a hot tub all the time or a secure garden. Beautiful property couldn't fault that.

“Lovely cottage on a beautiful area.”

The cottage is well equipped and the owners only too pleased to help if needed.

“We had a lovely time at the Woodcutters Barn in Launceston.”

On arrival there was a gift of scones, jam, clotted cream, wine and coffee, which was relly nice. The hot tub was really good, clean, hot, bubbly, relaxing, brand new and a real treat. The house was amazing with everything you could need, really cosy and comfortable. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be booking with them again.

“Wonderful property set in a great garden, which the little one loved running around and playing with her ball.”

The house is lovely with a rustic charm. There was an amazing hamper of goodies along with flowers provided on arrival. Really comfortable house with everything somebody needs. Excellent showers and water pressure. Kitchen has everything you need with everything being beautifully clean. The gas oven does take a bit of getting used to and is not very efficient. The owners checked in a number of times to ensure everything was well and made suggestions when we were looking for beaches to visit. We had no issue with mobile signal, so it was no issue to us, but it appears that no WiFi code is provided? There were an awful lot of flies in the house on arrival that took a while to get rid off. The hot tub was wonderful and relaxing, however disappointing that it was not fully working yet. Which is not noted in the listing. Hopefully it will soon. The bench in the garden is broken and needs to be replaced. This was our first visit to Cornwall and this property was a lovely base for our adventures and we hope to return in the future.

Tucked away in the rural village of Rezare in Cornwall, a short drive south of Launceston, lies this charming, two-bedroom barn conversion, Woodcutters.

Boasting pristine lawned gardens, tastefully-presented interiors complete with artwork, exposed wooden beams and black tiling throughout, along with superb views of the surrounding countryside, this delightful holiday home welcomes a family of four and their well-behaved dog for a relaxing escape near the Dartmoor National Park.

In the spacious, well-appointed, open-plan living area, you will discover a fully-equipped kitchen, complete with all the appliances required to rustle up a tasty, home-cooked dinner.

Savour your meals at the dining table before you gather to enjoy a film on the Smart TV by the warmth of a woodburning stove.

When the weather permits, head outdoors and strike up the barbecue for some alfresco dining or indulge in a dip in the outdoor wood fired hot tub as you gaze up to watch as the starry night sky begins to appear overhead.

When sleep calls, a large super-king and a king with en-suite shower offer tranquil sanctuaries wherein you and your loved ones can settle for a well-earned rest.

If you can tear yourself away from your fabulous new dwelling, head out to explore what the local area has to offer.

A short car trip will take you to the Stoke Climsland Post Office, where you can stock up on homely essentials, whilst the quaint pub of The Springer Spaniel can be reached on foot from your new accommodation, the perfect spot for a hearty pub lunch!

For a day out, head to Launceston, an ancient town filled and surrounded by a wealth of notable attractions, such as the historic Launceston Castle and Launceston Steam Railway, the pristine landscapes of Hidden Valley, and the family-friendly Trethorne Leisure Park.
