We had a lovely week’s stay at Caro’s cottage. It had everything we needed inside and out. The play area for the kids was great to burn off some energy and they were excited by the big trampoline. The cottage was spacious and it really helped to have a bathroom and en-suite too. The cottages were in a lovely location but not too far from Looe and other attractions.

This was my second stay at Cartole with my kids (now aged 3 and 6 - and this year joined also by my step daughter aged 14).

The cottages are wonderfully presented, very comfortable and well equipped. The garden space is great for the little ones with its large trampoline, pirate ship with swings attached, play house and other toys provided. Cartole feels more like a tiny hamlet community than a holiday complex.

The location is peaceful and rural (like a lot of Cornwall) tucked away down country rounds a mile outside Pelynt - but you are 10 minutes from both Looe and Polperro and around half an hour from some of the top Cornish sites, including Eden Project, Heligan and Lanhydrock.

Karl, the owner, is incredibly helpful and attentive. We drew on his support for information and help a few times and he was a great host.

Highly recommended.

How many times a day do I think about Cartole Cottages and specifically Caro’s Cottage? Approximately 6-8 times! This was our second visit and it didn’t disappoint. Fantastic location, beautifully kept, a haven away from the busy tourist spots but still close to everything. Our 5 year-old loves the play area, and our dog loved the enclosed field for running about in. Karl provides all the information you need to plan your days, and all the basics you need in the cottage too. Simply wonderful. I’d go back in a heartbeat

This was our second visit to Cartole Cottages, and our recent stay certainly did not disappoint.
Karl and Miles did everything they could to make our stay as comfortable and relaxing as possible. The cottage itself was well equipped, very clean and a real home from home.
The outside space was incredible - a beautiful patio area with table for sitting out with a drink in the evening and huge expanses of lush grass which our 16 month old absolutely adored exploring. The view from many of the windows was of fields of sheep and honestly we were quite emotional to have to leave! An amazing place for a relaxing, wholesome family holiday and I recommend Cartole Cottages to everyone! Thank you for another wonderful stay - see you again soon!

We absolutely love coming to stay at Cartole Cottages. Karl and Miles are the perfect hosts and they have always been super helpful when booking and any queries we have during our stay.

Caro's Cottage is the perfect base for our growing family of four. The cottage is very comfortable and very well set out with all your home from home comforts. The outside space is brilliant for kids and adults alike, and our youngest son was old enough this year to take full advantage of all the play equipment. The garden and land is so well maintained and the neighbouring sheep are an added bonus to keep everyone entertained. We would never hesitate to rebook and return for years to come.

We have been going to Cartole Cottages for many years both summer and winter. Karl and Miles are always welcoming, the place is immaculate and the atmosphere and environment is always welcoming. Cannot rate this highly enough, as base to explore loads of amazing places locally, whether you want to be super active or just take it easy. The cottages are a home from home without the hassle. Thank you Karl and Miles, we look forward to coming back. Joanne and Tom Gahan

We have stayed at Cartole Cottages numerous occasions over the last few years, although this was our first time staying in Caro, but it didn’t disappoint. Plenty of space for 6 people, spotlessly clean as always, big fluffy towels and a fluffy equipped kitchen with everything that you might need for your stay. Carl and Myles are the perfect hosts, we are always met on arrival and they are never far away should you need anything during your stay.
Set in the beautiful Cornish countryside, but only minutes from the local village and a well stocked spar shop.
Attention to detail is impeccable.

aDespite the weather we had an excellent time at Cartole cottages. As we went as a party of 9 for some of the time the Games barn was a pleasant and welcome addition which helped to make our stay all the better.
Thank you for helping us have a wonderful family time together.

We have stayed at Cartole many times since it was taken over by the present owners. It has always been an attractive and charming place but the new owners have improved it greatly. Each cottage has been upgraded internally and each now has an attractive outside patio. On this occasion we were in Caro’s with our dog. This is one of the larger cottages. Internally it is very comfortable and stylishly decorated. Externally its large sun drenched patio was a huge bonus and we ate outside almost every day.
More generally the cottages are set in large grounds that are attractively planted and well maintained and there is a substantial play area for children.
We really cannot recommend Cartole Cottages too highly. It is a perfect place to visit to either just relax or to serve as a very comfortable base while enjoying Cornwalls many attractions.

We love Cartole and have just returned for our fourth visit! It’s a beautiful location and the owners Karl and Miles are very welcoming and really helpful. It’s a great setup for kids with the garden and play area. We stayed in Carol’s Cottage and once again slept like logs in the wonderful beds. It has everything you need for a relaxing stay away from home. We will be back!

This was our second stay at Caro’s Cottage and it didn’t disappoint. The location and setting is perfect for families and couples and Karl & Miles are such welcoming hosts. The cottage is well set up for a home from home stay. The gardens and play area are brilliant for children and our eldest loved having the trampoline to jump on this time! The beds are so comfy and we all had the best sleep! We will be returning next year!

We have just arrived home from another lovely stay at Caro's cottage.

We honestly can't fault it. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming and can't do enough for you.

The cottage is lovely and clean and the outside space next to the cottage is amazing for relaxing.

We are a family of 5 including 3 young children who absolutely love the play area and all of the ride on toys etc. It's a great addition and helps let them blow off some steam!

It's in a great location just a short drive into Looe and Polperro etc but in a lovely peaceful area with rolling countryside, you have the best if both worlds.

We have been to Cornwall many times over rhe years but have never found anywhere which suits our family needs quite like Caros cottage does.
This was our second stay and we are already looking to book for next year!

We stayed here with our 3 year-old, my parents (mum with mobility issues) and our dog. Each and everyone of us had everything we needed for a fun, relaxing and comfortable stay. The cottage was perfect, and so homely. The setting was stunning and the patio and lawn area offered fantastic views and al fresco dining. The play area was amazing, a real treat for our little one who especially loved the trampoline. Great for burning her out! Location was handy for everywhere. We also appreciated all the info about places to visit. Can’t fault a thing and I was in floods of tears leaving! A big big thanks to our hosts Karl and Miles.

We absolutely loved our stay at Caro’s Cottage. It’s a really cosy cottage with all the home from home amenities you would want for a holiday stay. The cottage was beautifully decorated and really warm. Hosts Karl and Miles were really friendly and welcoming and did everything to help us settle in. The garden and play area were a hit with our two year old abs the addition of the trampoline half way through was an added bonus. We will definitely be returning again in better weather to make full use of this wonderful place.

We had a really lovely stay at Caro's cottage. We were 3 adults and 3 children and we found that there was enough space inside for us but MORE than enough space outside. The play equipment particularly the trampoline was a huge hit with the children and the play equipment would also have catered well for for younger children. The cottage was well equiped and immaculately clean. Linen was clean and beds were comfortable, towels were provided so you only need to bring beach towels
We felt welcome was just right - welcomed and friendly but not intrusive in any way. We noticed the layout of the outside space meant that we felt a sense of privacy even though there are 3 cottages on the property.

Note that the phone reception isn't great in that part of Cornwall and to be aware that because of the thick walls the wifi might not work really well in all rooms. Good shops a few minutes walk or short drive away. It's a very quiet and isolated setting so you want peace, plenty of space and to be a few minutes from the beach in a comfortable setting you can't go wrong.

We loved our stay at Cartole Cottages. We rented two, Penny's and Caro, which are next to each other including the outside space. This meant we could eat and socialise together without moving too far. The cottages themselves we beautifully decorated and furnished. The gardens well looked after, with plenty of space for the children to run and play. A trampoline, swings, playhouse and pirates ship were played on everyday. The owners were friendly and very accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. They provided extra bedding when needed and the use of a washing machine was a godsend. Karl was quick to reply to any emails I sent and sent links to places of interest we might like to visit.I would recommend staying at Cartole Cottages 100%. It's a perfect location, close to Looe and beautiful beaches.

We should have been in the Greek Islands sailing for this week, but……Well, Cornwall seemed a good substitute. Little did we know we wouldn’t miss Greece as we had the most relaxing, special week ever. Carl’s Cottage is a home from home. All the comfort and practical aspects catered for, (even the things you didn’t know you would need). The furnishings, bed linen, kitchen facilities are all of an excellent standard.
The patio area and grass area made us feel we had own own patch of Cornwall to ourselves. We took our sun loungers with us, (we always do) and I would suggest if you are looking to have good weather they will add to your comfort.
Karl & Myles could not have been better hosts; there when you need then, not when you don’t. They made sure we were happy and looked after and they are great company too.
I rarely say any where is perfect, but Carl’s Cottage, for us, was PERFECT .
PS Great location to visit all the local area. We have e-bikes and cycled to Looe & Polperro.

We stayed here as a family of 5 and a dog. The accommodation was very comfortable and the hosts were more than helpful. They gave us some good locations to visit and were more than helpful.

The accommodation was well equipped and although we are going through the current COVID-19 it didn't affect our stay accept for the play area being closed.

Although they are close to the village it feels like your in the middle of no where (dark, quiet and peaceful).

We liked it so much we have booked to go back in April 2021.

The only negative when we were there was a wasps nest close to the steps which was being dealt with.

We recently returned from a wonderful week at Cartole Cottages. We stayed at Caro's Cottage - a cosy but spacious little house that was perfect for a family of 4 and our little dog. The thought that has gone into making this lovely house a 'home from home' was evident and we really appreciated all the little touches including a wonderful welcome hamper that greeted us on our arrival and the amazing folder packed with so much useful information about the area. The location is perfect - far away enough from getting away from it all, but close enough to the picturesque towns of Looe and Polpero. It is a beautiful spot and whilst we were only able to enjoy it during a grey and windy December, this place must be an absolute gem during the warmer months when the sun is out and one can really benefit from the outside space and the grounds. Ideal for a couple and a family, we have no hesitation in recommending Cartole Cottages and thank Karl for looking after us and welcoming us in such a warm and friendly manner.

Cartole Cottages are set in a beautiful location, stunning scenery with a lovely views and facilities. The cottages are comfortable and a free laundry room is offered. Karl goes out of his way to welcome you and is friendly and helpful. Ongoing works are planned for a play room and patio which will be wonderful when finished.
The only downside I could say is that there maybe isn't enough storage in the cottage we stayed in for clothes but the kids were happy to live out of the case lol Definitely didn't put a dampner on the holiday.

Lovely quiet location, fantastic cottage ( Caro's ) plenty of space, fully equipped with everything we needed. Beds were comfortable with the added touches ( Soft Disney toys for the children on their beds ) that just made it like home from home. Lovely people which run an amazing place.
The children had plenty of space to play and with the added addition of the play storage we had lots of fun in the evening playing rounder, cricket and football. If the children wanted to make sure they were tired a bounce on the trampoline just did the trick.
Great location for all the attractions and the beach in Looe is beautiful.

We had a pleasant stay at this cottage which was clean and homely and spacious. Kitchen was well equipped. The owners were really welcoming and helpful. The cottage was well situated to visit beautiful parts of Cornwall. Would definitely recommend this to family and friends.

Lovely accommodation with wonderful grounds. The kids particularly enjoyed the play area and the green space behind the cottage. The hosts were very welcoming and attentive. The cottage was very well equipped and we found lots to do in the area. Wonderful stay, we'll be coming again.

The cottage was perfectly situated within easy reach of lovely local beaches and plenty of activities for families. Everything in the cottage was immaculate, with every detail thought of.

An excellent cottage in very good rural surroundings. Opportunities for eating out locally are very limited however the cottage kitchen is well-equipped.

We had a lovely stay at Cartole. The children loved the play area and the selection of bikes, scooters etc. Twinkle the dog was a very welcome visitor and kept the kids entertained. The cottage was well equipped and kept to a high standard. There are plenty of places to visit within a reasonable drive including the Eden project, Antony House and Lanhydrock. The local beaches were nice too. We really couldn't fault our holiday (except for a bit of rain!).

We spent a lovely week in Caro's Cottage. Its very spacious and comfortable with everything we needed provided for us. The children had great fun playing with all the toys provided and enjoying freedom to play in the space around the cottages.

Our family have been staying here for many years. Geoff and Steph have excellent all round standards and are so welcoming. We have stayed in most of the cottages and all are exceptionally presented. Cartole Cottages are set in a beautiful place. They are a great place to get away from the pressures of life but near enough to some really great places to visit. We love staying. The cottages are simply fantastic.

Very happy with our cottage and the friendliness of Geoff and Stef, the only downside was that the wi-fi was at times quite slow and at other times we had no wi-fi at all. We were glad to have a dishwasher, a recordable hard drive recorder for the living room to record tv programs would be a nice touch. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to staying at Caro's again.

Thank you for your review. It was good to see you all again. We are so glad that you appreciated all the changes we had made to Caro's since your last visit and will take on board your comments about a recordable hard drive next time we are upgrading the TV in Caro's. Sorry about the problems with the internet. We are experiencing issues with EE and BT at the moment but hope to have it all resolved shortly. Hope to see you all again before too long.

Great September Break

Caro's cottage was a very comfortable, exceptionally clean cottage, within a beautifully quiet area.
The only sounds at night were the hooting of owls and other various wildlife. The owners were very friendly and accommodating.
The area is great for walkers, and there are plenty of places of interest. Do your research before you come down as we could
not get onto the internet via our tablets or laptop, though we could get intermittent 4g through mobile. Trebor garden worth a
visit, dogs and children made welcome. We would recommend The Kitchen in Polperro for a meal out.

We would highly, highly recommend Coartole Cottages as a Cornish holiday destination. If you are looking for somewhere relaxing to stay near the coast you will not find anywhere better. It is the perfect destination for people with children and/or dogs. However the quality of the facilities and furnishing also make it perfect for people without children or dogs! The cottages are beautifully presented and immaculate. The layout is such that each cottage is very much private and the peaceful, quiet setting is lovely. We were made to feel so welcome and the children were delighted to find teddy bears in their beds when we arrived. We have been on several UK holiday cottage holidays and this has been by far the best place we have visited. On previous holidays we have found there to be no hand soap/bin bags/washing up liquid/basic condiments/tea bags/kitchen foil/food wrap and so we brought all of those things to find they were all provided and more! Geoff and Steph are such kind people and really care about making sure that everyone is happy. They are always affable and go out of their way to help. Our three year old did not stop talking about Geoff all week! It is very clear that Geoff and Steph love the cottages and care about the comfort of their guests. The travel cots have extra fitted mattresses and the bedrooms have black out curtains so all three of our three and under year olds slept through from day one. The cottage had everything we needed in the kitchen - it was like being at home. The furnishings are high quality, the sofas and beds are comfortable and the bed linen is lovely. We stayed in Caro's cottage where the master bedroom is downstairs and at the opposite end of the cottage to the upstairs rooms where we put the children. We set the baby monitors up in the lounge and so we had no problem hearing them in the master bedroom if they needed us but they were not disturbed by any TV noise etc made in the evenings. The children loved the play park, the field walk and the pond. You could stay at the cottages all week never leaving the premises and the children would be happy! Every time you wander around you notice new things to explore such as the willow dome by the pond. The field walk is brilliant for dogs or just for a lovely stroll. There is a path mown through the field with no mud in sight and you don't have to go on any roads to get to it. The local area is great; rural but with all the amenities you could need and so much to do on days out. We managed to see a lot of Cornwall during our stay; the location of the cottages enabled us to get to lots of places of interest easily. We had two particularly lovely days out in Launceston at the steam railway and the Hidden Valley and closer to base we had a wonderful time getting the passenger ferry from Polruan to Fowey. We thought the value for money on this holiday was incredible and won't be going anywhere else for our future UK holidays.

What a wonderful, comprehensive review. Thank you so much for putting in the time and effort, to describe your stay with us. It couldn't have been more perfect if we had written it ourselves. It was great to see your two boys enjoying themselves on the ride on toys and in the play area. It's good to know that it will be a holiday they will remember. We look forward to seeing you all again.

Brilliant base from which to explore.

My family and myself loved our stay at 'Caros', we were very impressed with the high standards around the site and its perfect countryside location.
Situated between Looe and Polperro, the cottages were ideal for exploring the many beautiful beaches and coastal walks plus many other nearby attractions.
