The Old Smithy is perfectly located for exploring many hidden delights, including Loe Beach, ideal for kayaking, canoeing and sailing. The area boasts some of the UK’s best sub-tropical gardens, including Trelissick Gardens, which is just a mile down the road, or Trebah and Durgan, which are located close to the Helford River.

We had a lovely stay over Christmas. The cottage was perfect for our needs, had everything we needed, and was beautifully decorated for the festivities. Loved the bag of treats waiting for us too- thank you. Lovely and clean, tastefully decorated and very comfortable. Would highly recommend.

Shower downstairs mouldy and not very clean.
Shower downstairs mouldy and not very clean. I sprayed with bleach spray no scrubbing and it made a massive difference. Needs more attention to detail. Floor on main bathroom had hairs over it and back of toilet very dirty. Dirty table
Needs outdoor table and chairs to be able to eat outside
Overall cottage was lovely and had everything you needed. Wouldn't hesitate to come again but cleaning needs looking at

Absolutely 5* We have stayed at the Old Smithy a few times now and it’s just amazing! House is just perfect and it’s like home to home. Location is brilliant and a 30second walk to the village pub which serves the most scrumptious food! Couldn’t recommend it enough. As my daughter says ‘it’s a little gem’

We loved our visit to the cottage.
We loved our visit to the cottage.One or two minor points,the fan in the downstairs bedroom didn’t turn off especially at night,the shower door didn’t close but apart from that it was very very good.
