For the half term holidays, we came to Reskivers from France for a week with five children! The accommodation was very comfortable and functional for our large family. We enjoyed the outdoor games, including croquet, and the indoor games provided. We also took advantage of the cottage's ideal location in the heart of Cornwall to explore several sites in the region, whether to the north (Camel Trail cycle path), to the east (Lost Gardens of Heligan), to the south (St Mawes), or to the west (Land's End, St Michael's Mount, Geevor Tin Mines). We returned delighted with our stay and the discovery of the region's rich cultural heritage. Thank you to Anne and to Classic Cottages. ...

It was simply an excellent cottage in every sense and ideally situated for access to beaches, river trips and a host of attractive places to visit.
Mrs Sparrow May 2024
Reskivers cottage exceeded our expectations. Comfortable, warm on arrival, clean & had everything to make our holiday a very special 3 generation get together. Children loved the garden, we loved the badminton set, patio & peacefulness. Birdsong was a joy. This cottage is well placed for visiting National Trust properties, coast, Lost Gardens of Heligan & The Eden Project. There are lots of leaflets, booklets to help you if you're stuck, but you won't be. All in all a fantastic home from home holiday let in a beautiful part of the country. We shall return....
