The house is tastefully furnished, comfortable, quiet, and has all the modern appliances we needed. Sitting in the conservatory for our meals was like sitting in a restaurant with a view over the well-kept garden. It's set in a small village with a pleasant walk around the local lake. Just a couple of miles from Falmouth, we also had easy access to services and leisure activities. ##### Nicholas B.

Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David 18 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We really enjoyed our stay with Peter and Shelley. The accommodation was lovely, seperate to the main house set within the garden. Very secluded and with outdoor seating and table alongside a koi pool with its gentle waterfall as a backdrop. The village is secluded above a large reservoir with good road access back towards Falmouth. Personally I’d recommend driving that way out towards Falmouth as some of the surrounding lanes are very narrow for those unfamiliar with countryside living. We would both fully recommend staying here if you get the chance. We took the advice of previous guests and had a lovely holiday. Thank you both Dave and Kay. ##### David Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne S. 23 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful oasis in the centre of everything Cornish.

The accomodation is very clean with modern state of the art appliances etc. Location is fantastic in the sense that you are very close to all the local attractions like the Lizard, Falmouth etc. We will definately stay again. Thank you Pete & Shelley for making us so welcome :) ##### Nigel W. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wendy B. 10 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing stay perfectly pleasant accommodation Shelley and Peter were very friendly and accommodating.

Owners Shelley and Pete had thought of everything from detailed directions to a fridge stocked with baby food (for our 6 month old), milk and bubbly (for us!), myriad toiletries and a table laid ready for dinner. The accommodation is a good size for 2 (or with a baby like us) with a lounge/kitchen and pretty conservatory and is very well decorated and homely with lots of nice touches - plenty of books and magazines, good size TV, Sabatier knives. Loafer's Glory is located in a pretty quiet village a short drive from Penryn and Falmouth. All in all we had a lovely stay and would highly recommend to anyone after more than just a base. ##### Juliet F. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter M. 23 Jun 2017 #### Idyllic retreat Peter and Shelley couldn't have been more helpful. Everything you could possibly expect to be in a holiday cottage was provided and much more besides. The covered outside seating area/pergola was extremely useful due to some of the inclement weather we encountered while staying there. Wherever we went on our days out we always felt very happy at the end of the day to be coming 'home'. Really close to good shops with easy parking. Lots of information in the handbook and a beautifully appointed and equipped place to stay. When our family with small children came to visit us, they provided a bubble machine and colouring books when it was rainy. It is a very peaceful place; hardly any traffic or noise. We arrived to a table set for dinner, beautiful roses and some milk in the fridge. We doubt we will ever find anything quite as perfect as this. The area is beautiful and there are plenty of places to explore. ##### Peter M. Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2017 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janice M. 1 Oct 2017 #### Absolutely lovely We stayed at Loafers Glory for a week the end of September. Were warmly greeted by Shelley and Peter and shown around. Lovely touch of flowers and some saffron buns together with some provisions in the fridge and cupboards. A lovely quiet position and as we were fortunate to have almost perfect weather we even managed to have afternoon tea in the garden most days. Very well equipped with everything you would need in your own home. As our first time staying in Cornwall we did some of the tourist visits (St Ives, St Michaels mount etc.) but as out of season was not too busy. We both also enjoyed Falmouth itself, along the beaches, the harbour and the town. Eventually ran out of time before we were able to see all the places on my 'list' so will hopefully return again. Would highly recommend staying. A great position for visiting lots of lovely places. Thank you Shelley and Peter for a lovely break. ##### Janice M.

We also enjoyed your CDs as we dined on home-cooked local produce. In August for Falmouth, Tall Ships we had a week of all seasons, glorious, sunshine, torrential rain, storm, Betty, glorious sunshine. We walked to local pubs, the new inn at Mabe, Twice, fab food! including a night walk back around the reservoir, and the Trelowarren. Friday fireworks viewed from PizzaExpress were great. On-board Tall ships was definitely a fab experience (after a 1.5 hour hot and sunny queue). Sad we missed the laser shows and crew parades, which were not as well advertised. Thanks for letting us stay the extra night after the storm. The Sun returned and we had a wonderful day at Swan pool beach. Definitely a gloriously loafing week, hope to stay again in the future. ##### Charmaine D.

Ideal for visiting the nearby coast and its many attractions, ranging from Falmouth harbour to the Cornish Seal sanctuary and Trebah gardens. A car is probably essential and a willingness to face narrow Cornish lanes and their drivers. ##### Peter H.

The accomadation was spotlessly clean and well equipped with everything being of a high standard. The garden was a delightful place to enjoy the cream tea that was awaiting our arrival. I would highly recommend this property. ##### Rosaline H.
