Pear Tree Cottage Reviews

Lovely warm and comfortable property. Everything supplied that you may need. Great enclosed garden for doggies and privacy, with lawn space and relaxing area and a hot tub. Easy to find and not too far from the main road into St Mellion. Definitely on my favourite list for visiting family in Cornwall
Phoebe
What a beautiful beautiful place to stay! I booked this for my partners 29th birthday & wow it exceeded all our expectations. I already knew it was going to be gorgeous from the pictures on the advertisement but its something else to see it in person. Everything on the listing is 100 accurate. I was shocked by how large the garden area was, our little pooch had the time of her life running around during the day with her ball. The hot tub is outstanding, perfect temperature ready for you to get straight in on arrival & maintains the heat really well throughout your stay Ive never been in this style of hot tub where it has a lay down style bed in there but WOW how relaxing, I couldve stayed in there all day. The facilities within the space has everything you could possibly need including more storage areas for food in the outbuilding which I think is so important especially if youre staying for a week & dont want clutter in the bedroom or living area. Everything worked perfectly, we had no issues with electricals, the oven & hob are very easy to use & the TV has apps available for you to watch your favourite filmsshows. The electric fire was beautiful & gives the perfect vibe for a rainy evening infront of the tv. Weve stayed in many places before & I always like to note the sleeping experience as I think this is so important. One thing Ill say is that was one of the most comfortable beds I have EVER slept in, the mattress was to die for! I even had to see what mattress it was to potentially purchase it

Beautiful place to relax and switch off, clean and tidy lovely welcome gift for us and the dogs.
Mark and Leanne the owners of the cottage made us feel very welcomed and the cottage is beautiful, very clean and had everything we needed. In a peaceful location, which was an added bonus when enjoying the hot tub and the secure garden gave us peace of mind as we had our little sausage dog Peanut with us. A lovely break away for our anniversary.
We had a lovely stay at Pear Tree cottage . Beautiful location .Everything we needed and spotlessly clean .Excellent secure garden for our 2 dogs .It was a pleasure to me Mark and Leeanne the owners who were very friendly and only next door if we needed anything .Would definitely recommend to our family and friends .
Darren
Pear Tree Cottage is the perfect place to spend a relaxing week, far enough away from the hustle and bustle but close enough that you can be in town quickly. The owners were friendly and helpful when required striking the perfect balance for when you just want some time to yourselves.
Lynette

We had a lovely stay at pear tree cottage everything you could ask for from a holiday destination. The accommodation was very clean and tidy on arrival also a small welcome pack which is always a nice touch.Overall a great place to stay ideally situated to explore the local area highly recommend.p.s otis enjoyed the dogs treats.
Pear tree cottage was beautiful. Excellent quality furnishings, very well equipped. Excellent parking, enclosed garden that our dog enjoyed whilst we enjoyed the hot tub. A very comfortable 4star stay would highly recommend .
We stayed for a week at Pear Tree Cottage and we absolutely cannot find a single negative or criticism, apart from our stay was to short! The cottage is immaculately clean and has everything you could possibly need. The bed is super comfy and the whole place is very cosy. The hot tub was an added bonus that we enjoyed every morning and evening. The garden is super secure and with a 60kg Alaskan Malamute that was extremely important to us!! Mark and LeeAnn were super quick to respond to any questions we had, even before our arrival which was very welcoming. They live next door but we never saw them and they absolutely respected our privacy. Thank you for an amazing stay!
Kieran
Simply fantastic from start to finish! The hosts were fantastic, it was easy to find once off the main road and is close to lots of local facilities. The property is well thought out, managed well and is very comfy and suited us perfectly for the week. We were hesitant about taking our dog as some places say they are dog friendly and dont appear it. However, this property is totally safe for a dog to roam the garden and are welcome to come with bowl and mat provided for the dogs! We will absolutely be back again, cannot thank the hosts enough for our stay. To top it off, a perfect hot tub!
Andrew
Pear Tree Cottage is a unique holiday home in an idyllic setting down a quiet country lane. The owner was very welcoming and accommodating and we had a very pleasant stay. He kept in touch with us and responded quickly to any queries that we had, despite being away himself. There were however a few issues that did affect our stay such as there being no freezer as it had gone wrong, the garden umbrella being broken and the kitchen fridge either dripping water but then freezing our food when we turned it up a notch. These are mainly maintenance issues that need rectifying, although we appreciate that the owner has not had the property for long and may not be aware of certain things that need to be fixed. The property was very clean and neat and tidy, but a few bits of cleaning missed such as the patio table. Overall though we would definitely recommend this property and would stay there again.

We will definitely be back

Lovely little hideaway, very peaceful and relaxing with all the amenities required.
Tricia
We had a really peaceful time at Pear Tree Cottage. Tastefully presented and clean, with all we needed to enjoy our five night stay. Good communication from Mark which made us feel we could call on him if needed. The hot tub and the walled garden was a draw to us which didn't disappoint. A lot of properties state that they have dog friendly gardens but aren't in reality, Pear Tree Cottage really is safe for dogs.
Beautiful property, very quiet and peaceful, the only thing you can hear are the birds and cows. Mark and LeeAnne were very friendly and helpful, the welcome pack with biscuits and strawberries etc much appreciated and the dogs loved the treats. The facilities were like a home from home, our dogs really loved the garden which being walled in was very safe for them. We didn't use the hot tub as the weather was too warm for us to use it but it's a nice addition. Big thank you Mark & LeeAnne for making our stay memorable
This cottage was perfect for our stay in Cornwall. We had a lovely welcoming gift of chocolate and a bottle of apple juice which was very much enjoyed. The cottage was immaculate and we had everything we needed for our weeks stay. Definitely be back in the future .
Raymond
A big thank you to Mark and Leeanne the new owners of Pear Cottage it is in a beautiful location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay the cottage was enclosed and very comfortable and had everything we needed and the hot tub was an added bonus. Everything was lovely and the utility room was amazing. Thank you again Mark and Leeanne
Cottage was really lovely. Cannot fault the place at all.
Pear tree cottage is beautiful, we absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be returning. Although the weather was terrible it didn't matter as we were so comfortable and content in the cottage. The garden was perfect for our nervous dog, it is fully enclosed. The hot tub is an added bonus.
Stephen
Thank you for a lovely stay at pear tree cottage, we loved the partridges at pear tree. The cottage was lovely and comfortable perfect for a winter break with the underfloor heating. We really enjoyed our stay and thought the cottage was great. Normally we never stay in the same place more than once, but we both said we would certainly be happy to holiday in pear tree cottage again.
Had a great time at Pear Tree Cottage. Very secluded with the walls around the property which was great for our dog, she had no chance of escaping. Liked the utility room which was great to hang all your wet gear, so warm in there. The Hot tub, what a godsend for this time of year, very warm to relax your muscles when you wake up or after a long day out. Overall a great warm cottage throughout
We had such a nice time every thing you could need for a winter break. Good area for getting around and seeing Cornwall nice walks.
Absolute perfection. Top quality hot tub and facilities no expense spared.
A beautiful cottage in a great location. The cottage was spotless and well equipped. We didnt have the greatest weather when we were away but that didnt stop us enjoying everything. The enclosed garden was super safe for our doggies who want to be outside come rain or shine! and totally private so we could enjoy the hot tub in peace. One of my favourite cottages so far of our many trips to Cornwall. We hope to return.
We have been super impressed with Pear Tree Cottage! Its a beautiful place to stay! It had everything we needed and I cooked a 3 course Christmas Dinner with all the trimmings!! and had a separate building for utilities! We really struggle to find places that are good for our dogs, lots say they accept pets but miss certain features that make them dog friendly, or compromise on the quality of decor and furniture. We found this place really was the best of both, everything was lovely and clean, and the high walled enclosed garden was a god send for us, this meant that we could let them out to toilet without having to lead them round, and we had privacy so they werent reacting to people walking past the property all the time. It also had a hot tub for us to relax in which is an added bonus! Its been the best Christmas and we have been so impressed, will definitely be back!!
Warm, welcoming and a stunning property with everything you needed and more, ... Warm, welcoming and a stunning property with everything you needed and more, wouldnt hesitate in coming back and had such a brilliant time
The cottage is perfect for a couple. Anyone who stays there will want for nothing, fully furnished and fully equipped. The outside space is fantastic, table and chairs, sun loungers and the hot tub.
Georgia
We had such a lovely, relaxing stay at Pear Tree. Its in a lovely, rural quiet location, the cottage itself is gorgeous and to a very high standard. The hot tub was great too! Would definitely visit again! Thank you for a lovely end to our stay in Cornwall
