    We thought it was in Port Isaac, however it was quite a bit out. As we didn't have a car we were unable to get anywhere.

    It was a lovely place to stay if you had a car.

    Road noise. No clean sponge for washing up. Poor pottery, except the two cups. Plate stacker had rust on and metal holder in bathroom also had rust on. Could be improved, with little input.

    We liked the nice garden,with seating, a good shower and a nice tv. Lovely views surrounded the cottage and seeing wildlife early in the morning.

    Blinds on velux windows in living area would be useful , woken to early by daylight, it was very warm during our stay, a fan would have been welcome.

    Comfortable well appointed accommodation, lovely garden, quiet area, excellent location for seeing north Cornwall. Cheerful, approachable and knowledgeable hosts.

    Not a reflection on the Nook but next time would definitely drive as not very good to rely on public transport or taxi the whole time

    Perfect surroundings, lovely clean and tidy. Great facilities for the price....would definitely come back

    There was no cold drinking water due to the only source of water being a mixer tap with a sensor. The owner said The Nook is a converted tea house and the sink was designed just for washing hands, hence the presence of a mixer tap, she apologised for the lack of cold water, which she had been meaning to rectify, and said future guests would be informed. Being a townie I was annoyed at the lack of cold drinking water, but when I'd got off my high horse I realised that I was being hyper-critical and just went out and bought some bottled water instead. When I booked the venue we thought it was a B&B, but once the booking had gone through I saw that no meals were being provided. This made me a little sad as the breakfast reviews had been so good, but a small tea shop 10 minutes away in Port Isaac called the The Cornish Cove made an excellent alternative.

    The location was very central for easy travel to Port Isaac and other areas of interest. The venue also provided good off road parking. The Nook was more basic than I expected, and sits beside a road that's fairly busy during the day, but very quiet at night. When we arrived I wasn't all that sure about the accommodation, but it grew on me and turned out to be a great base for our daily excursions. There's a big screen tv with access to a Netflix account, a fridge, microwave, coffee machine (bring your own grounds) and kettle. The shower was hot and hand soap supplied. There is is a good sized patio with an outdoor oven, a large private grassed area adjoining the property where there's plenty of room to kick around a football, also a good view of the surrounding farmland. The owner was very helpful, friendly and a good communicator and thoughtfully brought round a lovely bowl of choccies on our last day, which was a nice touch.

    Nothing.

    Breakfast was not offered; this is self catering (as expected) . The room was enormous and split into three areas, sleeping, lounge and kitchen diner. Very specifically for a person on their own or for a couple. Spotlessly clean and bright; lovely mood lighting. great controllable heating and instant hot water. Very very fast Broadband/internet; large modern smart JVC television with access to Netflix and other subscription channels with guest access

    The only complaint would be the mattress being uncomfortable due to it being far to soft for our liking. Another pillow each would have been nice too, that said, the sofa was very comfortable.

    The value for money is fantastic, everything you need and expect for the price. We used the Nook as a base which it’s perfect for due to its location, only a 9 minute drive from port Issac and Polzeath. Zoe was very friendly and welcoming, we enjoyed our stay

    Although a good location , it took us nearly 2 hours to find it . Google maps sent us to the other end of road , locals had no idea , Eventually someone had successes with postcode when helping us ( we didn’t ) “the nook “ not mentioned anywhere on signs but a small “ Plain Tree Cottage” sign on wall which we noted was same as info on email in small print , altered us to correct location. We had a hire car without Sat Nav Road side sign in larger print needed and name needs to be consistent.

    Lovely breakfast , although butter for toast would have been good Lovely room
