Quay cottage is great for a relaxing, comfortable break, in a lovely river location. The town is well worth exploring, before venturing further afield.

A very comfortable stay was had by the whole family. We are two adults and three teenagers and had everything we needed. Yes parking is very tight (especially if you have a large car) but manageable. Lostwithiel is a good base and some fabulous coves nearby. ...

We have just had a great holiday at Old Quay Cottage. Lostwithiel is a cute little town with some interesting history, shops and cafes. The cottage is a short walk to a pasty shop and co-op which is great for getting food and essentials. The decking on to the river is lovely, we hired some kayaks from Riverjoyz in Lostwithiel and went for a paddle which I would definitely recommend. Some people have commented on the parking. We had our 7 seater s max and we managed to park ok with a few maneuvers but my husband is a confident reverser. There is plenty of onstreet parking close by too if you are happy to park your car away from the property. We would recommend a stay here ...

Property is superficially clean but needs a really good deep clean and declutter, espacially downstairs. The kitchen cupboards are messy and I had to tidy them to find stuff. Too many "knick-knacks", personal items and dodgy furniture (wobbly side tables and dining chairs). Some things were a bit dangerous if children stayed. Upstairs was much better. Ouside area also need cleaning and sprucing up. The parking, as previously mentioned, is a nightmare. VERY difficult to get in and out between a broken down car, a boat and a camper van. Having said all of that, the cottage is nice BUT.. it could be stunning with more attention to detail.. As there was only 2 of us we enjoyed our week and very much enjoyed Lostwithiel and the surrounding area. The shops/pubs/cafes are all within a couple of minutes walk and being by the river was just lovely. Easy access to other places like Bodmin and St Austell/ Charlestown....

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry that you found the communal parking a bit challenging - there is parking available on the road by the quay a short distance away if you prefer. The cottage is furnished in a cosy individual style, with ornaments and objects that are close to the owner's heart. We're can only apologise that you felt it was cluttered, we appreciate that furnishing a property is quite a personal matter, and we're sorry that this wasn't quite to your taste. It's great to hear that you did enjoy your stay and particularly liked the waterside location. Tanya, Customer Support...
