Mr Osborne September 2025
Great cottage, excellent location with good walks straight from the door. The garden is safe and secure for dogs and is a wonderfully quiet sunny spot for dining outdoors when the weather permits. Two excellent pubs that are both in walking distance is a bonus too....

Whim Cottage is an excellent choice if you want a peaceful, get away from it all, holiday. Ideally situated you can walk to Mylor Bridge over the fields for supplies, including fabulous pasties from the village butcher. Alternatively, a short stroll down the lane to the creek to watch the boats, or a little further along to the Pandora Inn, a wonderful place to eat or drink. The cottage is of high quality and has everything you need, even down to welcome flowers, milk and biscuits. The garden is large and secure for dogs and children, although there are steps up to the lawn. The owners live next door and apart from just popping in to see if we had settled in, never intruded. It was interesting to learn about the history of Whim Cottage. One of the nicest Classic Cottages we have stayed in. ...

Whim cottage exceeded our already high expectations from the photos and description. So much so we will be going back later in the year.

Comfortable and well laid out property, very well designed and thought through so it worked very well for 5 adults. Location is also good, rural and close to the sea but also handy for pubs and the shops in Mylor Bridge. Would highly recommend this property....

This comfortable and well-equipped property will suit anyone wanting a quiet location in easy reach of both the coast and Falmouth - Mylor Bridge and Restronguet Creek are both in walking distance and each has a pub. The secluded garden is a lovely place to sit on a sunny day. Overall, a home from home....
