Gareth

We absolutely loved our time at Karrek. It was spotlessly clean, really spacious, and so quiet perfect for a relaxing break. The kitchen was well equipped, and having a washerdryer was super handy. The beds were really comfy, and the master bedroom having its own ensuite was a lovely bonus. The WiFi was great, and having offstreet parking for one car was really convenient too. The hot tub was amazing perfect for unwinding in the evenings. We didnt want to leave and would definitely stay again!

Karrek was an alternative cottage after our initial choice was cancelled 3 days before we were due to go. But were so glad it was because Karrek was perfect. It was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed except the Tassimo coffee maker wasnt working but only needed descaling! The location was perfect and we drove out to many places easily within an hour and we walked into Tintagel which was less than a mile. The owner was super friendly on our arrival and we had privacy for our 1 week stay and we copped for gorgeous weather too which was a bonus!! Very happy to recommend although access could be a minor issue if you struggled with walking as its down a few steps down. Absolutely loved it !!

Heather

Lovely clean and comfortable cottage perfect for exploring the local area. Cottage had everything needed for a lovely stay with the added bonus of the hot tub. Few points to mention there are a couple of steps to the bedrooms need to be careful in the dark! and if you have kids, a couple of blackout blinds are useful! Thank you for a lovely week x

Hannah

We had a lovely holiday, cottage was perfect and the hot tub was amazing and a great location

Heather

Enjoyed our stay very much

Amanda

We have been staying at the Karrak for many years. If we decide to visit Cornwall it is the first place we look at.It is a home from home providing everything you would want when you go away for either a few days or longer. I highly recommend staying here and look forward to returning in the future.

We were very very pleased with the property, very comfortable and the hot tub was lovely,it was used every day. Thank you so much.

Helena

Lovely cottage in a very pretty location and a short walk to a beautiful little cove. The cottage was clean with all the equipment you need and the hot tub was an extra bonus. I would definitely recommend this cottage if you want a peaceful stay with a short walk or drive to other local amenities.

We have had a wonderful week in this beautiful cottage. It was exactly as described. Extremely comfortable and well looked after. A beautiful place central for visiting the wonders of Cornwall. We would highly recommend a stay here.

Valerie

Very nice cottage thank you for sharing your holiday home with us

Lovely little cottage & great location. Cottage was clean & well maintained, apart from the broken toilet seat in the downstairs toilet but we had 2 more to use so wasnt really an issue. Would definitely recommend a stay at Karrek.

Geoffrey

Fabulous cottage in an excellent location. Cleanliness excellent, very roomy. Real home from home cottage with everything you need. Coastal walks across the road fabulous.

Very happy with the accommodation and location. Some minor points to mention Mixer tap in the kitchen very wobbly needs tightening. Carpet between lounge and dining room has a split in it which could be a trip hazard. Shower head cradle in main bathroom is faulty so you can't direct the shower head outwards. A hand towel in the ground floor loo would have been appreciated. These points would not stop us booking again. Feedback is for you really, I understand you might prefer not to publish. Regards.

Thomas

My husband & I, together with our son who was over from New Zealand on holiday, spent the week 5th12th August at Karrek cottage in Bossiney, Cornwall. We were delighted with the cottage & very pleasantly surprised at how spacious it was. All the rooms were large bright & airy with good quality furnishing & fittings. We were only fifteen minutes walk from Tintagel & an easy drive to Wadebridge, Padstow & surrounding villages. We visited Port Issac & of course Tintagel Castle. We would have liked to have visited the Eden Project but unfortunately ran out of time, our week passed so quickly! We would certainly recommend Karrek cottage as a delightful relaxing place to spend a holiday.

Michael

The cottage was lovely, very clean and an ideal base. All the facilities were as described and the hot tub was a nice extra which was checked every day by an attendant to ensure safety standards were met.

Fantastic cottage, loved our time there and cant wait to visit again.

Louise

Very well equipped cottage. Fantastic location to explore area. Well presented, loved all artwork. Would definitely book again and recommend. The mattresses could do with updating. I'd definitely consider installing a dishwasher in the future. Also the hot tub is not covered, so not able to use some evenings. Issues with damaged window, which were declared to us prior to arrival. But it wasn't repaired so we couldn't have it open in main bedroom.

Lovely cottage, very comfortable and cozy, the hot tub is a great addition. Fantastic location for coastal walks.

Ionela

We had a lovely stay at karrek cottage, beautiful views and most of all very peaceful. Thank you for a lovely holiday!

Andrew

Fantastic cottage thats full of character and history, its beautiful inside and so homely. We had a wonderful week exploring the local area and it was great to have a relax in the brilliant hot tub at the end of the day. I would definitely book again when I return to Cornwall.

Clean and cosy, the cottage was wellequipped. Hot tub was a bonus and the cottage in a great location.

Amelia

The cottage was so lovely, really cozy and very well presented. All the extra equipment and utensils in the kitchen were fantastic, we also loved the fluffy blankets on the sofas for snug evenings watching tv. The hot tub was an amazing addition to our stay, well looked after by th3 maintenance team and very clean. It was an amazing location for our stay, thank you for sharing your lovely property with us.

Lovely cottage, much bigger than we thought. Charming decor and very well equipped even down to a wine bottle stopper! Please add the tassimo coffee machine to the list on your details, as I have the same one at home and would have bought my pods along. Location was fantastic, easy walks to and from to see stunning coastline and tintagel Castle. Loved the hot tub that was a real delight even in the summer. Ample parking space for one car. Very quiet area so was lovely to relax after a long day. Thank you for the bottle of wine! We really enjoyed our stay, the cottage was fantastic and tintagel and North Cornwall were stunning.

Excellent cottage. One of the best equipped we've ever stayed in. Location was great. Hot tub wonderful. Very comfortable stay.

What a lovely Christmas we enjoyed at this beautiful cottage. Pretty much everything was perfect. Please get some decent washing up liquid, Christmas Dinner was difficult to clean up after.

Just a few small comments. We obviously knew the sofa's were getting refurbished after we had stayed and we can see why. The double bed could do with a new mattress i think personal opinion but the oddest thing was the heating. I spent an hour after arrival just trying to get a radiator on so lucky it is not as cold as this week. such an odd and very poor system. I guess you have got used to it but as someone through the door having to reconnect sensors to thermostat etc and no timer auto would work. Still thanks for letting us stay for a week

Just back from a very pleasant stay at Karrek cottage. The property is very well located in Bossiney, near Tintagel and the castle yet within an easy drive from North Cornwall's stunning sites. It was a pleasure to come back to Karrek, it is warm and cosy and the hot tub and wood burner are a must on a blustery November evening.

Angela

Loved the hot tub at a reasonable rate. Very modern, relaxed feel to cottage and clearly care taken to maintain it all. Enjoyed the space of separate dining room. Private courtyard with hot tub not overlooked. We loved it!

Really enjoyed our stay. Cottage is a great base for exploring North Cornwall, with stunning walks close by. Accommodation is well equipped and has everything you need, with the Hot Tub being the icing on the cake.

Fabulous cottage with every piece of equipment you could need. My only comment on this is that I rang Sykes for more info. On what was in the kitchen and the agent just read FRI the list and looked at the pictures. It would be useful in these cases to contact the owner. We took far more equipment that we needed cafetire etc when there was a coffee machine there on worktop. We also noticed the back door mat was saturated in arrival and due to rain all week, we couldnt get dry. There was also a smell of dog when we entered day which is odd as it advertised as no pets. All that said though, we would stay there again if we went back.

Amazing cottage in a fantastic location. Brilliant hot tub and cosy woodburner. The coastal walks are absolutely stunning. The cottage was very clean and has everything you would need. We will definitely be returning.

Beautiful cottage in outstanding area perfectly located as we particularly enjoy walking the coastal paths and so had a great time despite the current climate. We didn't experience as much eating out as we would have preCovid so will definitely look to return when things improve on that front. As a couple the cottage had everything we could possibly need and more the only slight disappointment was that the log burning stove was for ornamental purposes only especially as the autumn weather appeared with a vengeance mid way through our stay. All in all a wonderful holiday!

Shelley Ann

Beautiful cottage, in a wonderful location. Loved everything about it. The area is gorgeous with spectacular views along the coastal path.

Amanda

Amazing week in a beautiful cottage with great hot tub. Good location for exploring plenty to do on the doorstep and further afield.

Istvan K

We have spent an amazing long weekend in middle of February in Karrek cottage. The cottage was very well equipped, decorated, furnished at high standard, great hot tub, cosy feeling through the whole property. Superb place so far! Highly recommend! Well definitely go back!
