    Fern cottage is a lovely little cottage. It’s let down by not being cleaned throughly. The cottage stank of dogs wee, the mop was disgusting and unfit to use. The kitchen work surfaces could do with being oiled as they are wooden and due for a good clean. Upstairs was clean, beds and bedding clean and fresh. However both bathrooms were not so I had to give them a good clean myself. Fern cottage could be really lovely with a competent cleaner and a lick of paint in the kitchen. Despite all this we did enjoy our stay, Fern cottage is ideally situated for lots of interesting places and I’m sure once these things are addressed we would like to return at some point.

    The property was quaint, small, quite, just what we needed for two of us and 2 other adults visiting for one week. A little challenging for adults in our 70s with the different levels of stairs. I would recommend to friends who want to get away,,

    The property was very welcoming and we were happy with the facilities offered. It was a good central location for exploring other areas. We enjoyed walking up the tors.

    Had a lovely week staying in this unique stone cottage just outside Camelford. Great base for exploring many of Cornwalls popular towns and villages. Also close to Bodmin Moor, where a walk up Roughtor is a must! Camelford had an excellent pub and chip shop as well as a Spar and Co-op for essentials!

    We had such a lovely week in Fern Cottage. We were 3 adults and it had plenty of space for us to do things together- and separately! Very spacious bedrooms, 2 cosy sitting rooms and a kitchen complete with an Aga style stove. Camelford itself is not that exciting a place, but it has all you need and there are lovely walks very close to the house and fab beaches and other places not too far away. Host Julia could not have been more helpful or flexible- highly recommended!

    The house in itself is nice. It is in not a bad location and was warm and comfortable on a wet week in October. The main problem was that the roof leaks badly into the master bedroom, through a large plasterboard sheet with 8 halogen spotlights in it. The owner was called as soon as this was known, and advised it only happens when it rains hard. Which it did, every day. When mentioning the lights, I was advised that the electrical circuit was safe, which it can only be if done to marine specifications. You would fix the roof first! I shut down power to the master bedroom and located a bucket under the drip, however there is water evidence coming down into the lounge and the ceiling lights in the roof had started to fail. We moved to the second bedroom. Fix this and it is a good property. Until then it should not be used.
