Perfect Cosy Getaway

Our stay was gorgeous - the cottage is cosy, calm, and just right for two. We visited in the winter and thoroughly enjoyed the log burner, though to be honest it was warm enough without! The views accross the Tamar are lovely, and it's a great place to explore on foot. Nick made us very welcome, and we thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility and silence that the cottage provides. The perfect getaway if you need to just stop for a bit!

Okeltor mine is a real slice of paradise!

We have stayed at the mine several times over the last 10 years but this was the first time we stayed in the Smithy. It is a well equipped cottage, warm and comfortable with everything you need to make it a great stay. It's perfect for a romantic break or just as a retreat away from the hustle and bustle of life. The setting is idyllic and the dogs absolutely loved it. Nick is the host with the most and is so welcoming and helpful. I can't recommend this place highly enough.
