Early March cottage was perfect for our stay. Warm, clean and comfortable. A bonus having the dishwasher with plenty of dishwasher tables too! A lot of places are closed in March so don’t expect to eat out easily locally. A lovely walk down to the charming beach /harbour. All the locals were very friendly and helpful. Useful village shop. Great for cliff path walks and garden visits Heligan Caerhays castle Eden project as well as private gardens open at the weekend. The cottage was perfect for our dog too. Hard floors throughout downstairs. Pegs by the doors for coats...

We're delighted The Old Dairy suited you so well. Thanks so much for sharing your lovely review. We hope to welcome you back again soon. Julie, Customer Support

We really loved our stay at the Old Dairy .The size of the cottage was just perfect for a couple and is decorated and fitted out beautifully.It's in a perfect location for walking down to the village and for doing some great walks on the SWCP between Mevagissey and Portloe. The parking was a real plus and by following the instructions on reversing we had no issues .Gorran Haven is a beautiful little village with great beaches and cafe's. The Haven Fish & Chips is excellent, and has fantastic fish and chips plus do gluten free. ...

Loved this cottage, had pretty much everything we needed, perfect for a couple and nice it’s dog friendly.

The Old Dairy is in a beautiful location and was very comfortable and well equipped.

This is a lovely cottage and our second stay here. The drive from St Austell to Goran Haven is spectacular. The cottage is bright, airy and welcoming and the milk, tea, coffee and biscuits were gratefully received. The only blight was one of the neighbours who is building a holiday let in his back garden next to the Old Dairy so from Monday to Friday from 08.30-18.45 we had the sound of a digger, a motorised wheelbarrow and the accompanying stench of petrol fumes. Although we were out every day breakfast and the early evening were somewhat spoilt. Expect similar disturbances over the coming months. Saying this we would return as the village and the area is lovely. Be sure to visit Lobbs farm shop at the Lost Gardens of Heligan and have fish and chips in the village chip shop....
