Lovely character cottage in great location
The property is a unique cottage with plenty of character, it’s clean, comfortable & well equipped. It’s in a great location with a sea view & of St Michael’s Mount, especially from the elevated garden, and it only takes a few minutes to walk into the town centre or to the beach. The host was very helpful and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and would happily stay there again.

Great Cottage
Beautiful cottage, very well equipped and spacious for 4 people , although there were just the two of us. Spotlessly clean Just a very short walk into the village. Lovely garden with fabulous views. Richard was very welcoming and his directions were a great help. The parking space was a real bonus although it is tight getting down the little twitten and turning, if like us, you have a large car.

A characterful cottage in a private location with an excellent view of St Michael’s Mount from the garden. Richard, the host, provided clear directions, good information and a warm welcome. Marazion is a very pretty village and is an excellent base for visiting many of Cornwall’s attractions. A very enjoyable stay.

Just right for us
We had a lovely week. It was great staying in Marazion and Richard's cottage was an ideal location for us; we were able to walk to the beach, St. Michael's Mount, along the coast path and to Penzance and back. Sadly we didn't make full use of the pretty garden with fantastic views of St. Michael's Mount due to it being March and not great weather some of the time. The cottage was clean and well equipped with comfy beds and sofas. The cottage was also warm and light, with views of the sea from the upstairs living rooms. Richard was very helpful guiding us to his cottage and keen to make sure we had all we needed (which we did).

Castle View
We had a lovely week. The property was an old but very well refurbished cottage, well heated and with comfy beds and lounge furniture. A few more mugs and items of cutlery would be good but on the whole sensibly equipped. A short walk into Marazion and also bus service to Penzance. Helpful timetable provided. Bit tricky to park the car at end of lane alongside owner’s vehicle but manageable. Great view of Mount’s Bay from upstairs window and garden. Might be difficult for you if steps are a problem. Richard is a very kind, helpful host. Would visit again and continue to enjoy the good transport links and magnificent walking.

Autumn ‘get away’ in lovely Cornwall
The peaceful location with wonderful views out to sea from the upstairs lounge and dining room were a real treat! The cottage was very comfortable in every way, and equipped with everything required to make a ‘home from home’. The car parking was an added bonus! Our friendly owner/host was more than accommodating to help us settle in immediately, and couldn’t be kinder and more pleasant. We enjoyed our stay very much, and we were blessed with lovely weather!

Facilities at the property were good and the sofas were comfy. The garden was small but private and had a lovely view of the Mount. Host was most helpful, responsive and polite. Parking limited but given the location was understandable. Overall, thoroughly enjoyable week

Early spring getaway
Lovely property 5 minute walk from the centre of the wonderful village of Marazion. Host was most welcoming and helped us find the house when we confused our left from right and got lost! Comfortable house with an amazing view. Perfect for self catering or popping to the local pub for delicious food. Would love to return again. Even in a stormy afternoon, the trip was amazing. Thank you Richard

Lovely half-term break
Really enjoyed our stay in this property. It has an excellent location as well as having views of St Michael's Mount and the coast. The upside-down arrangement works very well in offering the best views from the living space. Despite it being a stormy February half-term, we found the property warm and cosy. Plenty to do a short drive away as well as all that Marazion has to offer within a short walk. The owner lives nextdoor and offered any help should we have needed it.

Perfect place for a break
There were a couple of reviews on here that made me a little cautious - but they're was no need to be so. The property is everything that you see in the photos and as is said in the listing and Richard was super helpful on a couple of things that I needed. If you need anything extra to be provided ... simply ask Richard .. he will help you out. From the picture I was expecting the kitchen to be really basic (with the older style electric hob) but it was all good - I cooked for myself all week. Only eating out a couple of times - so I can confirm all works well in that department! Enjoy your stay.

Fabulous day in a stunning location
We had a great stay at Richard's cottage, what a beautiful spot - 5-minutes walk to the beach and Marazion, and easy to get to the surrounding areas. The cottage was beautiful, comfortable and clean, with views of the sea and St. Michael's mount from upstairs, and it was great to sit outside on the terrace with spectacular views. Richard was a great host, on hand if you need him, with some good tips for the area. Highly recommended.

Cottage with Stunning views
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Richard’s cottage. The cottage is well presented with the basic facilities that you will need for a weeks stay in Marazion. The view from the garden is stunning and despite the unpredictable British weather we experienced during our stay, we still managed to enjoy sitting outside whist drinking in the views! We enjoyed eating out at the Kings Head and The Fire Engine Inn (essential that you book in advance). The essential morning walk along the beach, a 5 minute walk from the cottage, set us up for a day exploring the area. We look forward to visiting the area again and next time hope for some sunshine to complement the beautiful setting.

Excellent Stay, Great property well located
We had a lovely stay. Richard and Sarah provided great communication prior to our stay. When we arrived some tea, coffee and milk had been provided plus cleaning items, a lovely touch. The property is well located close to Marazion beach & Amenities, only a 5 minute walk. The property is well sized, we were a family of four. There is private parking and a lovely garden with views over St Michael's Mount which some rooms in the property also benefit from being an upside / down house. The property is well looked after and appeared to have been recently decorated. There is two good sized bedrooms and a bathroom with separate shower. It also benefits from a washer / drier which is great to have available. We needed matches and a few other queries whilst there which Richard helped us out with, he couldn't have been anymore accommodating. We would definitely stay again as this property is ideally located with most of the SW Cornwalls beach's and sights only a short drive away. Totally recommended.
