Lt is well equipped and has everything you could want in the kitchen. Sadly I am somewhat disabled and it was not ideal for me. The owner is most helpful and says the follow are in the pipeline. A downstairs loo, an en-suite downstairs s bedroom. A handrail into the kitchen. We were unlucky with the weather as the storm hit and the electricity was. It off. We then had no light or heating.the fourth bedroom is fine but is a walk from the house. It would be great at in the summer but not in December. I had to go to it in the gales and darkness. Don’t let me put you off I was just unlucky.

- Dorothy Linda, December 2024

Thank you Dorothy for your feedback which will be of huge importance to those who have difficulty with stairs. It is planed to add a downstairs bathroom and loo in time for the 2026 season. Storm Darragh was not conducive to enjoying a relaxing week especially without power for the best part of 20 hours. I will personally let you know when the planned changes have been completed so you can come and enjoy the cottage in the finest conditions. Kind regards Mark Property Owner

“The house is lovely but in need of a really good spring clean.”

Cobwebs everywhere. The essentials like bedding bathrooms and kitchen were spotless but the house itself needs to have some love too. Listing needs to say there are steps into kitchen and no down stairs toilet. Having two people with limited abilities with stairs did struggle. Cowshed was lovely but needing a fire alarm in there as the heater gets very hot we turned it off as weather was very mild fire the time of year. The shared drive needs to have house name on it so that it can be found easier. Our dog got out of the garden so isn’t secure but can imagine the garden is beautiful in the summer. Maybe a welcome book of where you can visit things close by and what days bins go out where they need to be kept etc. just general household things would be nice. Lovely gift on arrival of scones and bubbles. Host is extremely helpful and welcoming. Was a great week away.

- Michelle, October 2024

Thanks Michelle for your helpful and constructive feedback. I fully understand the issue with period side of the property and we have plans over the winter for renovation which I trust will help. Good idea re house name (only on garden gate) and I will check garden for any areas that may be susceptible to security breaches by our canine friends. Thanks for your positive points too, and glad you enjoyed your holiday Property Owner

“Absolutely fantastic cottage, gorgeous garden!”

Lovely peaceful setting yet so many places to go within easy distance to travel. Cottage was clean, well appointed , with lots of extras (games, ping pong, body boards etc.) that would keep everyone amused. Thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and it was very, very nice to arrive after a long journey, to some delicious scones and a bottle of wine

Thank you so much for leaving such lovely words of appreciation and advice for others that's so kind of you. Property Owner
Steven August 2024

“We had a great stay at the Cottage and Mark was a great host.”

The welcome scones and fizz was a lovely touch and so pleased to see the EV charger added. The gardens were beautiful, very tranquil space and the kitchen diner area was a good family space. Had some good games of table tennis and were grateful for the citronella candles.

Pauline July 2024

“We had a fabulous holiday with our family staying at Little Chycoose.”

On arrival we found a beautiful welcome package and the cottage was perfect. Grandparents had their own bedroom and ensuite in the "Cow Shed" whilst the children could explore the huge house, the large garden and summer house/games room. Our youngest was obsessed with the piano and provided entertainment for all! The kitchen/dining area was fabulous and the large folding doors proved invaluable in the hot weather we were blessed with. We were able to get to so many beautiful places in Cornwall because of where this house is situated. Mark was the perfect host and proved invaluable when we needed his assistance. Would definitely recommend if you want to explore Cornwall during the day and then relax in the evening away from the rush of the city.

- Pauline, July 2024

Thank you so much and delighted you all enjoyed it. Property Owner
Emma April 2024

“Wow, the cottage was absolutely amazing, the quirkiness of the cottage, my family loved having different areas they could relax.”

Especially the balcony in the kitchen was used for the entertainment. The Scones and drinks were fantastic on arrival. Mark made us feel very welcome. We would definitely recommend this cottage. We loved our close we were to each coast of Cornwall. The Cow Shed was lovely if you have anybody who is slightly less able. Thank you once again

Angela March 2024

“Lovely family house set in beautiful countryside with large garden, beautifully equipped with plenty of room and space for when the weather is bad.”

Very helpful owners who were on hand to help with queries anytime, Would love to go back and enjoy garden when the weather favourable.

“Lovely time spent in a wonderful cottage.”

Main family in the house; grandparents in the Cow Shed. Well equipped kitchen/ dining/ family area, peaceful 'reading room' and a cosy lounge. Benefitted from a utility room too. Comfy beds and modern batherooms/ shower rooms. The mezzanine area above the kitchen was a hit with our granddaughter, as was the piano! Pretty gardens, although the weather had turned, so couldn't sit out there but made use of the table tennis table in the summerhouse. Great base for exploring the beautiful Cornish countryside. Very remote, but found it ok. Only downside was the cleanliness of the property. Loose grout on floor in Cow Shed and lots of cobwebs everywhere. Other than that, we had a lovely time!

- Lindsay, September 2023

Thank you for your informative and constructive feedback articulating excellently some of the joys the cottage has offer. I will address the issues you have mentioned and thanks for letting me know. Property Owner
Joanne September 2023

“It’s been a week since we got home from our stay at Little Chycoose, I’ve missed our time there every day since being home.”

I have been visiting Cornwall every year since age 7 apart from my teen years that were spent in Canada. There is something about Cornwall that gets under your skin and finds a place in your heart. We went on to take our children and now our grandaughter has had her first holiday in Cornwall. Little Chycoose was a real home from home, everything that three generations of one family would need was catered for and we were immediately wrapped up in the special warmth and magic that exuded from it. From the welcome pack (bubbles, scones, clotted cream etc) to the milk, tea, coffee and kitchen bits, we didn’t need to worry about anything for the first day. We travelled to Cornwall from The Isle of Wight and the New Forest, quite a trip with a baby and someone with limited mobility, finding the cottage was made extra special by the little roads that led to it. As each car arrived the same things were said by the occupants ’this is just perfect’. It wouldn’t matter what time of year you visited, LC would always be perfect. Set in countryside with beautiful gardens, farmers fields for views going off into the distance and a group of squirrels to keep the dachshund’s on their toes, we had plenty to occupy us both inside and out. Ample space downstairs allowed my son in law to have business meetings via Skype whilst the rest of the family and doggos occupied the rest of the house and gardens. LC is the type of house I think of when I look at owning a property where we could all live, one that embraces family life but also allows everyone to have their own space to read, play or congregate in the kitchen, not once did we end up going out for dinner. We made full use of the kitchen space and had some wonderful meals around the large kitchen table. My husband and I stayed in the Cow Shed, tastefully decorated throughout and with a fabulous shower. It was nice to say goodnight at the end of the evening and make our way to bed, we slept well each night and in the morning we’re ready to start the day. Every year I have places I want to visit but this year, it didn’t matter. We were so comfortable in our surroundings that we stayed home several times whilst others went out for a mooch. Mark, owner of LC was lovely, thoughtful and appreciative of family life. It was thoughtful of him to make contact to ensure all was well and to see if anything was needed by any of us (including the baby). Our thoughts on LC….. perfect! Would we come again? Absolutely. I give a general heads up on anyone with an EV. We had a nightmare finding somewhere to charge and ended up in the McDonalds car park just as you head into Falmouth (about 4miles from LC). It’s a fast charge and cost us £30 to fill up. On leaving LC, we stopped at Launceston, the car park had a super fast charger and again it was just under £30 and got us home (just). I wish Cornwall would sort this out, living on the Isle of Wight we have the same problem so I’m more than tolerant of it but some may not be. Relax, you’re on holiday.

- Joanne, September 2023

Wow Thank you SO much that is so kind. Great info and advice to others. Picking up on your point about EVs it is in our plan put in a EV charging point at the property next year! Property Owner

Keith July 2023

“We were 3 couples with our ladies singing in Truro Cathedral for the week.”

Starting on Monday to Sunday, we were able to use the Sunday changeover. it was easy to transport our ladies into Truro each day for practise - only 15 minutes door to Cathedral. The house is on a steep hill on a typical Cornish back lane. There is some passing traffic so you must be careful for the half a mile from the "main" road (where you can pass easily). The North and South Coast are less than 10 miles away. Once we arrived are the house, we had the big garden and extensive accommodation to ourselves. The main house has 2 bedrooms with 2 adjacent bathrooms - ideal for 2 couples. The separate en-suite annex, called the "cow shed", is a beautiful addition - very quiet with large double bed and excellent shower room. There is a small double bed for an extra person - which was used occasionally by one couple to avoid the snorer! The huge kitchen/diner extension with large bi-fold window was the most used room. 6 people round a table which could have taken 8 or more with an island cupboard/breakfast bar. The small lounge had Sky sports too!! We didn't use the garden "shed" with veranda - but it offered a full-size table-tennis table and many beach accessories - e.g. body boards. The garden lawns and borders were kept well. Thank you to the owner who looked after his visitors arrival and stay. You couldn't ask for more

- Keith, July 2023

Thank you so much, it was lovely having you and your team as guests. Thank you also for taking the time to write informative feedback for others. Property Owner
Sandra July 2023

“Great place to use as a base for large families.”

House and gardens are lovely. Dog friendly and the owners were very amenable when we had a little problem that was quickly resolved.

- Sandra, July 2023
Nicola June 2023

“Little Chycoose was the perfect base for a wonderful week in Cornwall.”

We loved the quirkiness of the main house in contrast to the light, airy kitchen extension. Blessed with amazing weather, we were able to throw open the bifold doors and take full advantage of the lovely dog friendly garden, outdoor dining area and summer house. The Cow Shed has been beautifully converted and was perfect for one of our party who preferred their own space. The owner Mark was on hand to welcome us and quickly iron out a couple of minor issues, neither of which detracted us from enjoying our holiday. The cottage is quite rural but well located for places such as Falmouth, Truro, St Ives etc. Great food at the nearby Royal Oak at Perranwell Station and can totally recommend the Hidden Hut at Porthcurnick/Portscatho. If you have a dog, do go to Kennall Vale nature reserve nearby, a wonderful shaded woodland walk with water, perfect when the weather is too hot for the four legged members of the family. If you're looking for a peaceful, rural location with easy access to exploring central Cornwall, then Little Chycoose is the perfect place.

- Nicola, June 2023

Thank you for a lovely, descriptive and informative feedback on your stay. So delighted that you had a great time with your dog, you have described the locality so we'll, and thank you for taking the time to so elequently write about your experience. Property Owner
Adrian May 2023

“We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Little Chycoose.”

The facilities were comprehensive and it was an interesting combination of old and new. The garden was a very pleasant place to spend a sunny afternoon (enjoying the greatly appreciated welcome package on the summer house veranda!) It was thankfully dog escape proof for our oldies. The surfing & kayaking equipment provided we sadly didn’t use. The location was ideal for exploring the whole of Cornwall. I have to say that Mark was so helpful and a pleasure to converse with. Everything one could wish for was provided and a fair bit more too! The Cow Shed was a delightful addition. Highly recommended!!

- Adrian, May 2023

Thank you SO much! It is such a pleasure when our guests are happy and appreciative. Property Owner
Jenny November 2022

“The property is spacious, warm and bright with a great kitchen space, a lovely garden where we could play with the dog, comfortable bedrooms and great bathrooms.”

It is in a quiet and peaceful location with lovely dark skies for winter star-gazing, while also being great for a family and well placed for visiting other areas eg Falmouth, Truro etc. We found this ideal as we have relatives in the area. We had a lovely restful stay.

- Jenny, November 2022
Sharon October 2022

“Fabulous, spacious, well equipped, secluded property.”

Easily accommodated 7 adults and large dog, lovely secure garden with seating and games room. We had a wonderful family week. Mark was fantastic, very welcoming and great communication. Flowers, scones and prosecco were a lovely surprise and thoroughly enjoyed! We would love to return! Thank you Mark x

- Sharon, October 2022

Thank you so much Sharon and team, it is wonderful having guests who appreciate the cottage and enjoy it. Please come back I will even find some more jobs for you Property Owner
Rachel September 2022

“A fantastic cottage, lovely garden which was great for our two dogs.”

The Cow Shed was brilliant for my nanny as it was all on one floor. Mark was very helpful and made sure we settled in ok. We went to the local pub The Royal Oak as recommended, food was lovely and they also allow dogs which was a bonus for us. Great cottage that is close to loads of different places, so a great base if you want to go and explore. Would definitely recommend this place and would stay again. Thank you!

- Rachel, September 2022

Thank you so much Rachel, so pleased you and your four legged friends had a great time! Property Owner
Paul September 2022

“Wow, little chycoose is an absolute gem!”

Set in the heart of the countryside, you really are secluded from the world. There are 3 double bedrooms within the house and then a separate anex with a double and an en suite. The open plan kitchen diner is gorgeous, the bi-folding doors open out onto the huge garden and at the bottom of the garden is a games room. Wet suits, body boards, surf boards and a kyak provided which is amazing. You will need to drive to places for dinner and for days out but it's really no bother at all. Fantastic location, fantastic property, Mark was great! Prosecco and scones on arrival. Would love to come back!

- Paul, September 2022

Paul, thank you so much for your kind words and for being great guests, best wishes to you and your team. Property Owner
Mary August 2022

The house and garden were great and we had a really good week. We would certainly reccomend and would stay there again if we are in Cornwall. The owner made us feel most welcome.

Andrew July 2022

“Superb base for our family holiday with two children and a dog; the house was very clean, had everything we needed with plenty of space and very comfortable.”

Great kitchen for family meals and beautiful garden to enjoy the sunshine in with lots of space for the dog. Property is in a really good location from which to explore Cornwall and it’s fabulous beaches. Owner made us feel very welcome throughout. Definitely recommended, thank you.

- Andrew, July 2022

Thank you so much Andrew, we are always delighted to hear about all the family having a lovely time! Property Owner
Alison July 2022

“What a great holiday we had, 5 adults and two little dogs Fantastic garden for all creatures human and canine Brilliant well equipped kitchen, great showers !”

A few low beams and doors for anyone 5' 9 or above you need to duck :) pretty much what you would expect from an old cottage

Thank you for your valuable feedback and so pleased that all of you had a fabulous time! Property Owner
Alexis July 2022

“Beautiful cottage, fabulous dream garden, full of character and charm.”

Lots of room for everyone, with games room at the bottom of the garden - great fun playing croquet. Good facilities, modern kitchen with huge bifold doors opening onto garden, ample bathrooms and comfy beds. The Cow Shed is a wonderful quaint conversion, with en suite. Mark was a perfect host, a cream tea and Prosecco was waiting to welcome us! Centrally situated and convenient for Truro and Falmouth. I would highly recommend this for a family to get away from it all. Loved it!

- Alexis, July 2022

Thank you Alexis for your kind words and for being such lovely guests! Thank you from Susie (the gardener) too! Property Owner
Erwin M. June 2022

“A wonderful place with everything we could have wished for.”

A beautiful garden and spacious house with so many nice things and views to enjoy and explore. It is an excellent location from which to visit all the must-see places, and at the same time feel completely at home in Cornwall. It is a real gem. Many thanks to the owner who did everything to ensure we had such a great time at this dreamy cottage!

- Erwin M., June 2022
Lucie May 2022

“Little Chycoose was the perfect holiday home for me and my family.”

It's a stunning house, spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. We loved sitting in the beautiful garden and playing with all the games provided. The children especially enjoyed the tree swing! The location is great and we were able to discover lots of lovely parts of Cornwall. We were planning our return trip to Little chycoose before we'd even left!

- Lucie, May 2022

Thank you so much for your kind words. So glad you had a lovely time and enjoyed the both the garden and house. We look forward to welcoming you back Property Owner
Claire April 2022

“Little Chycoose is such a gorgeous house in a beautiful setting.”

It’s so homely and comfortable - and the garden is perfect to potter and play in. Yes, there were some cobwebs, but I actually found that quite charming as I opened the original windows to let the sun in. The places that mattered (bedding, bathrooms and kitchen) were spotless. The owner was so helpful and accommodating - and the welcome pack was a generous and lovely touch. Fresh flowers, Prosecco, cream tea - what’s not to love! I was born and brought up in Cornwall and I felt perfectly at home here! Thank you for a lovely stay.

- Claire, April 2022
Susannah September 2021

“Little Chycoose is a lovely house in a lovely setting but was spoiled by the poor standard of cleanliness throughout the house, including black mould around the bath and the windows, some of which we couldn't open.”

The plastic cloth covering the table in the kitchen had not been wiped for a long time and when we cleaned it showed how dirty it was by looking at the grime on the cloth that was used. This was the same for many of the touch surfaces in the house including in the cow shed and the glass topped table in the garden. We felt we had to wash every utensil, cutlery and plate before we used them. A water jug was found to have dead flies in it and there were dead flies that had not been swept away from floor space. The detergent drawer in the washing machine was filthy with brown stains encrusted inside it. This cottage has not been adequately cleaned for a long time. The whole house needs a deep clean to reach the standards we expect in a holiday cottage, never mind during a pandemic when cleaning standards are supposed to be paramount. This falls way below the standards we have come to expect in holiday cottages we have previously stayed in. If this is the standards we can expect in a Sykes Cottage we will not be booking with Sykes again.

- Susannah, September 2021

From Mark, Thank you for your comments and what turned out to be very good feedback indeed. We were initially shocked by your findings one of our cleaning team had tested positive on a LFT in the morning. The replacement had tried his best to do the beds and bathrooms however not being an experienced cleaner there were clearly areas that he had not addressed and other areas that he skimmed over. I am so sorry that this impacted on your holiday. The same issue happened the following week but as we did not receive this excellent and detailed feedback until after you had left, it was too late and he had completed the changeover again the next week with again disastrous consequences to our previously excellent feedback record. Please feel welcome to get in touch, you have my details and I am keen to apologise unreservedly for this to you and find a way to address your negative experience. From Sykes Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We have arranged for someone from our Quality Assurance Team to visit next month at which point the issues you have raised will be addressed. Thank you for bringing these to our attention. Property Owner
Phil September 2021

“Unfortunately this property is not like the sparkling photos.”

It's in need of a deep clean (cobwebs, windows, dust), some items did not function property, sleeping was uncomfortable and the outdoor furniture was shabby. I would definately not stay here again.

- Phil, September 2021

Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. I wish to assure you someone from our Quality Assurance Team is due to visit the property next month. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Property Owner
Karen July 2021

“The property was amazing, the little touches of cream tea and table tennis was a real bonus.”

Fabulous location, amazing house and the fact that the garden was dog safe really made the holiday.

- Karen, July 2021
Sandra May 2021

“The kitchen was amazing and we were fortunate enough to have good weather for a couple of days, so were able to open the bi-folding doors.”

This opened up the already fabulous room out onto the garden where we were able to sit and enjoy the sun with a drink.

- Sandra, May 2021
Marion May 2021

“Loved loved loved our stay!”

! It was a really homely cosy house, and we loved the Bose speaker for music, very nice surprise! My husband and I stayed in the ‘Cow Shed’ while my parents stayed in the main house. The Cow Shed is a great little escape for couples as has a Kingsize bed and en suite in it. The owner Mark was very helpful and extremely understanding. The garden was something out if a novel with all its wild flowers. Highly recommended!!!

- Marion, May 2021
Richard April 2021

“The owner was extremely helpful and we had several text messages between us.”

We had a Cornish cream tea awaiting us when we arrived! The property was all we could have wished for...in a great location. Peaceful surroundings with lovely wild flower garden.

Dave & Paula October 2020

“The cottage combines the old with the new.”

Quaint characterful older areas are cosy, whilst the new parts are airy bright and modern. Well equipped kitchen enabled us to enjoy an evening meal in comfort after a day of exploring all that Cornwall wall has to offer. All in all a lovely holiday enjoyable for all the family including the 4 legged members! .

“This was a fabulous cottage in an ideal location.”

Mark (owner) was attentive and available if need be (which he wasn’t ). The family holiday was a huge success and we’ll be coming back again soon. PM

Pamela June 2019

“I must admit the older part of cottage I found a little disappointing (not as clean and bright as pictures lead you too believe).”

However the kitchen and above space was exactly as pictures show . Amenities worked well. Also The Cow Shed was true to pictures I did not realise this was the 4th bedroom and a walk across the yard. There was no towels or bath mat in there on arrival. We took towels over from cottage. None of this spoilt our holiday we had a lovely week while we were there and we had a most relaxing week.

- Pamela, June 2019
Stuart April 2019

“Little Chycoose was a fantastic base to spend a week in Cornwall.”

The cottage was spotless, the facilities excellent, and it easily accommodated six of us. It was a great base for days out cycling the old mining trails, walks on the coastal paths, pub lunches and trips further afield. In the evening we were able to spend time in the wonderfully light and spacious kitchen eating and drinking, and then retreat to the cosy lounge to watch TV before bed. The scones with clotted cream and jam when we arrived were especially welcome! I would recommend Little Chycoose to anyone looking for a place to spend a holiday in Cornwall.

- Stuart, April 2019
Nathan April 2019

“Lovely welcome pack left by owner for our arrival including fresh flowers in every room which was a nice touch.”

Would definitely recommend and looking to book again in the future

Matt December 2018

“We had a wonderful stay in Little Chycoose for the Christmas period.”

The owner was onsite to meet and greet us, which was really helpful in terms of getting to know some of the features of the house. After such a long journey the welcome pack was much appreciated! The house was very warm and cosy when we arrived and the facilities were great, we didn't want for anything! We had friends come and join us on Christmas day, with the wonderful kitchen catering and entertaining a large group was no problem!!

- Matt, December 2018
Kate August 2018

“The house was lovely spacious and well equipped -just as it appeared on the web site - and ina very beautiful part of the world.”

The stay aas marred by an investation of flies which meant we could not keep open the beautiful sliding doors or the windows. There was an ele tric fly zapper but that was not enough to control the problem. Even sitting outside the summer house proved uncomfortable. Our very nice neighbour told us that he had never known a summer like it and wondered if a newly occupied chicken farm in the vicinity was to blame. This was obviously not the fault of the owners but it did put a blot on the holiday especially as my ausutistic granddaughter is terrified of flying insects and we had problems getting her to come out of her bedroom. The kitchenwas particually beautiful and the piano a much appreciated extra.

- Kate, August 2018
Sarah July 2018

“Little Chycoose is a wonderful place to stay.”

It has ample space - the bedrooms are a good size and there are three bathrooms, which was essential for us. The kitchen is great: it is large and very well equipped. The patio doors mean you have wonderful views of the garden. The area is extremely quiet, which was also a great boon for us. There is room for three cars in the driveway, which was also great. We thought the location might mean it would take us a long time to get to the coast, but in fact it was not a problem at all, as it meant we were ideally located to go either north or south. Holywell, Crantock and Godrevy beaches were our favourites. We would not hesitate to book this property again.

- Sarah, July 2018
Babette May 2018

“Wir konnten eine Woche dieses wunderschöne Cottage als unser Ferienhaus genießen.”

Mit Scones und Blumenstrauß wurde uns ein netter Empfang bereitet. Das Cottage ist sehr gut mit allem Erforderlichen ausgestattet. Kochen und Essen im modernen Anbau, Schlafen und Wohnen im gemütlichen Altbau. Dazu ein schöner Garten, Gartenhäuschen und sogar Grillmöglichkeit. Geschirrspülmaschine, Waschmaschine und Trockner sind vorhanden, natürlich auch Wifi. Das Cottage liegt zwar mitten im Nirgendwo - man könnte auch sagen in wunderschönster Landschaft - aber relativ mittig in Cornwall und daher perfekt als Ausgangspunkt für Erkundungen in alle Richtungen. Die nächsten größeren Supermärkte liegen 15 Autominuten entfernt in Turo. Wir haben uns hier mit unseren Kinder sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen gerne ein anderes Mal wieder! PS: alle Bilder stimmen 1:1!

Truro is the retail centre of Cornwall with a good range of independent shops as well as national stores all within a compact city centre. With its eclectic range of art galleries, bars, restaurants, cinema, theatre, museum and outstanding cathedral this small city is a superb year round destination. Steeped in history and intriguing architecture there is always plenty to do and see. Just meandering through the Georgian cobbled streets is a pleasure in itself. With many peaceful parks all within a short stroll from the centre it is a most relaxing city to visit. A wonderful day trip can be had from Truro to Falmouth along the stunning Fal estuary with many options to disembark and pick up the boat later along the scenic river trip.
