The owner was quick to answer any questions and very friendly. Would definitely this cottage- great location and homely. Thank you! ##### Laura T. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jeff M. 24 Nov 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in #### Cosy. and well placed Southern Comfort Cottage was clean, cosy and central to shops, restaurants and pubs but in a quiet backwater. Lovely log fire to cosy up to and big tele to watch our favourite films. If I was being picky there were not enough glasses including Prosecco flutes and whisky glasses and back door did not shut properly. We had some communication issues including not having code to access outside key safe but quickly sorted. All in all a great holiday in a great little cottage in a great place. ##### Jeff M.

Warm and very comfortable. Home from home. One minutes walk to the sea. Definitely recommended. ##### Tina S. Stayed 4 nights in May 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kylie W. 22 Oct 2019 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Very cute and quaint cottage but in need of some TLC We stayed here for a weekend in October. We had a really lovely weekend and enjoyed the experience of staying in such an old quaint cottage. However, it is in need of some TLC and some basic things need updating as feels quite tired - if this is done it would make this a great place to stay. The location couldn’t be better in order to experience all st ives has to offer. ##### Kylie W. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Steven B. 26 Sept 2019 Liked: Location #### Very rustic Even though I knew the cottage was olde worlde it was just a little bit to far for us. Some basic maintenance is required to just increase the experience a bit more ##### Steven B.
