Chy Goff

Another return visit to this cottage has passed and once again, I find myself feeling a little reflective and sad to leave…and in truth, for so many varied reasons. How three weeks do pass, in the twinkling of an eye, when you’re having such a lovely time…. This is ‘the perfect escape’ from all the cares and worries of life as one is transported into a place of soulful retreat. A cosy Cornish cottage, nestling amidst the trees, meadows and woodlands on a Cornish country lane. Its perfect as a base from which to explore the craggy coves and the rocky coastlines of Cornwall and North Devon. For nearby sandy beaches you’re, very frankly, spoiled for choice. Camelford is a beautiful small town/village built of Cornish stone and set upon and between a number of convergent hillsides. Tintagel, Boscastle, Padstow and Port Isaac are but a short journey away by car. The cottage itself has a ‘magic’ all of its own which beguiles the unwary traveller, very much more in the actual experience of, than in the telling…. The log burner set in the old stone surround is as ‘cosy and warm’ comes as ‘warm and cosy’ goes. Brimming with the warmth of Cornish expression and overflowing with characterful integrity and charm, on so many levels, this really is a wonderful place within which to to have a wonderful time. Waxing lyrical, I may very well be in the writing of this review, I admit with a smile…but not, in the matter of Chy Goff, without cause, just and true. As good as it gets…..

Chy Goff is a very warm and cosy cottage a home from home. If you enjoy walking you can walk for miles along the river and up onto the moors. You can easily get to lots of towns and the camel trail to Padstow and Bodmin is easy to get to from Wadebridge....

Very cosy well equipped cottage. Comfortable beds. The single beds are also suitable for adults. Well located for getting around.

Chy Goff was up to its usual high standard, and we picked the right week weather-wise, not more can be said, excellent! Out and about Rowes Bakery as you go into Bodmin does some marvellous breakfast fayre, sausage swirl, 3 rashers of bacon in a big bun for the unbelivable price of £2.77!! The Ham/Cheese Croissant bun is Tina's favourite. We also found Haywood Cider Farm at St. Mabyn, they'll blend the scrumpy to your taste out of the wood barrel or do bottled sparkling. Another great weeks stay at Chy Goff....
