    “Excellent cottage, beautiful surroundings”
    Reviewed June 3, 2013 for a stay in June 2013

    Oak Tree Cottage is a wonderfully cosy cottage. Very well equipped kitchen, comfortable bed, great shower and spacious lounge. Good size TV and DVD and wifi installed which was very useful. Lovely welcome hamper.
    The Rivermead Farm grounds are very spacious with stunning views across the valley. Enjoyed very peaceful stroll along the river bank in the grounds and around the lake. Lovely bluebells. The owners have added loads of potential activities for young and old; boules, (coarse) croquet, a few golf holes, climbing frame, fitness trail ... All without affecting the delightful ambience.
    The cottages are situated in a good area in mid Cornwall within 30 minutes or so of North and South coasts and many tourist attractions. Something for everyone.

    Thank you for your very complimentary review. We agree that it is a very central location for visiting either north or south coast attractions but it was good to see you just relaxing in the grounds which look particularly pretty in Bluebell season

    “happy result”
    Reviewed November 18, 2012 for a stay in November 2012

    During a very pleasant stay at oaktree cottage we had a happy result and actually caught a salmon. What a joy and then to see it returned to the river to fight another day. Our hosts made us feel very welcome and the cottage was very clean bright and airy. The grounds are lovely to walk in whatever the weather.

    We were thrilled when you caught the salmon, the picture on your camera proved it wasn't just a fisherman's tale of 'the one that got away'! We are glad you enjoyed your stay and will notify you when we have the 2013 dates for the special fishing weekends.

    “Home from Home”
    Reviewed October 25, 2012 for a stay in October 2012

    A cozy hideaway in beautiful surroundings. We have a lively Red Setter and were looking for a quiet rural retreat where we could dog walk, sample local pubs, visit beautiful areas of coastline and escape a more hectic pace of life. Oak Tree and Rivermead Farm Cottages provided this and more. We are not sure who enjoyed our short stay more...our dog or ourselves! Welcoming hosts that couldn't have tried harder to make our stay comfortable, a setting of unspoilt beauty, lovely walks from our doorstep, deer gazing at us from a nearby field when we arrived, a well equipped, clean and pretty cottage for two (and a lucky dog!) plus a wonderful welcome hamper filled with local goodies on our arrival. We couldn't have asked for more and only wished we could extend our stay! We will be back.

    Thank you for your very positive review. We, too, enjoyed getting to know you and your lovely Red Setter who seemed to thoroughly enjoy the freedom of Rivermead Farm. We do hope you will manage a longer stay next time!
