Holiday with granddaughters

Exactly as featured on website in quiet, safe surroundings only 10minutes from a beach and with easy access to A30 for visiting a couple of attraction in Cornwall. . A minor downside was to be expected in an old cottage, but the creaky floors unsettled our granddaughters when trying to get to sleep at night. This would not stop us coming back in the future. Thanks for arranging beautiful weather for our week!

Easter at Tinner's Cottage

Just spent a lovely week at Tinner's Cottage. Location is just outside Redruth, easy access to Porthtowan Beach as well as many others. Situated 5 min walk to the Mineral Tramway which was perfect for cycling or off lead dog walking (although it does cross a road now and again). Cycled along the track to Portreath Beach in less than an hour. Local Farm Shop (Ehterington's) and Prima Bakery were excellent. The beds were really comfy and the bathrooms felt fairly new and very clean. The main engine house is privately owned. There are 2 adjoining holiday cottages with a shared outdoor space. Each cottage has it's own table and chairs. The garden is not entirely enclosed, so dogs need to be supervised, but this was not an issue for us. We were the only people staying and dog only went out with us on lead anyway. The large garage with washing machines and somewhere to put the bikes was really useful. Although I booked through Vrbo, communication with the owners was excellent - always on the end of a phone. We will be back. I've stayed in several places in the area and this is one of our favourites.

A comfortable and enjoyable stay

We enjoyed our visit to the cottage. It was spacious and comfortable. Plenty of kitchen equipment, good beds and shower facilities. The one small issue we had was the lack of outside area where our dog could roam free. The hosts were very helpful and accessible by email or phone.

Stunning views

Lovely cottage with great sized rooms. We had a lovely stay and the views were amazing. The cottage was central to many places and there were supermarkets very close by. We went for a meal at the Inn for all seasons which was nearby - truly amazing food. The carvery was outstanding so well worth a visit! We had an issue with the WiFi but June responded straight away and it was sorted.

Great location, practical family accommodation

The property has everything a family requires. It is practically furnished , plenty of space in the two upstairs bedrooms, good wardrobe and drawer space in bedrooms . The kitchen is well equipped with a very good range of utensils and pans etc. The fridge in the kitchen is small to fit under the units but there is a fridge and freezer in the garage that is useful for families who are self catering . There are two bathrooms with very good showers and plentiful hot water. I would imagine it’s very cosy in winter and was quite cool in the heat we had last week . The owners were very quick to respond to any email . The caretaker was friendly and helpful on recommendations for eating . The cottage was perfectly positioned to access any beaches with a very short journey to the A30. Porthtowan was lovely with a stunning walk at low tide to Chapel Porth. We were lucky with very hot weather and the clear, clean blue sea and white sand we could have been in the Caribbean !

Great place to stay from which to explore Cornwall

Great sized property with plenty of space (particularly outside) with lovely unique features in a lovely quiet location but with access to lots of local amenities and main roads to access the wider area. The place was spotless when we checked in - really clean and tidy with everything we needed to make a self catering holiday work. We were really impressed and will stay here again when next holidaying in Cornwall.

Wonderful week at the Tinner’s Cottage

We just had a wonderful week staying at the Tinner’s Cottage. The cottage was clean, well equipped and comfortable for our party of 3 adults, 2 teenage boys and a dog. The cottage is easy to find a short distance from the A30 and it’s rural location was very quiet and peaceful. There is a great farm shop within walking distance and a lovely bakery not too far away. There are many beautiful beaches a short drive away, many dog friendly all year round. The cottage is also in a great location for exploring lots of Cornwall and it’s many attractions. The owners were quick to respond to our booking enquiry and ensured we had all the information we needed ahead of arrival. Would definitely recommend the cottage and hope to return ourselves.
