Lovely location with access to beautiful garden . Amazingly spotless and stunning welcome pack. Close to all you need to get to in Cornwall. Only downside was the fact the couldn't stop it raining...but guess can't blame the hosts for that. Well worth a stay.

The Garden Studio is a wonderful place to stay in Cornwall.
The Garden Studio is a wonderful place to stay in Cornwall. The owners provide absolutely everything that you need, including lots of fantastic recommendations of places to explore and visit in the area during your stay. The location was perfect for us as we were looking for a central rural base to explore different areas. However, it would be hard to access without a car. This was not an issue for us, and if anything, the quiet location was one of the factors that appealed to us. St Austell is a convenient distance for supermarkets, and there are so many places, both well known and hidden gems, to explore. It is also a perfect place to stay if you're looking for somewhere to have a quiet few days with a beautiful garden and wonderful facilities on site. I highly recommend the Garden Studio and if we revisit the area then we will be looking to book to stay again.

This studio was perfect for us.
This studio was perfect for us. We booked late and it was in an area we knew well from many years ago. The peace and quiet and the living space in the shepherds hut was a lovely extra. The only slight downside is that the studio can get quite warm being in the roof space but the weather wasn't warm enough for it to trouble us. There is a good fan to help with that and shades on the windows.

We would highly recommend this property.
We would highly recommend this property. It is the ideal location for visiting Heligan, Eden, Mevagissy, Charlestown and St Austell, The Studio was beautifully presented and very well equipped with everything we needed. The hosts were friendly and gave us a lovely welcome on our arrival. The gardens surrounding the Studio were peaceful and relaxing, and the Shepherds Hut was a really lovely added bonus for us to enjoy. We loved staying in the Studio and wouldn't hesitate to come back and enjoy it again.
