We recently stayed at Sylvan View with our two big dogs and absolutely loved it! Perfect place for our last minute peaceful getaway. The location is fantastic - the pictures dont do it justice. Its surrounded by acres of woodland with many walking trails right on the doorstep and just a short drive to some excellent dog-friendly beaches on the CornRead moreish coast. The cabin itself is cosy and well-equipped, with a lovely private garden and outdoor fire pit, which we enjoyed in the evenings. Everything was clean, comfortable and just what we needed for a relaxing break. The owners are genuinely lovely and made us feel very welcome. Its clear they care about the property and their guests. Wed highly recommend Sylvan View to couples and families would love the nearby camping and huts. Wed definitely return and have recommended to friends and family. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

This is a thoroughly charming place - the grounds are beautiful and the owners friendly. We had a really relaxing getaway. The bluebells were amazing! The bed was very comfortable, but would not be possible for anyone who is not very agile or unable to kneel

A great place if you dont want to do move, a little to secluded. There was nothing else to do, I would recommend 2 days maximum just for the views and off grid location.. I think the price was too high for what the cabin has to offer.

We had such a lovely time staying at Sylvans View. The property was clean, comfortable and well located. We recommend bringing, or hiring, a car to ensure you can properly explore the beautiful surrounding areas. The owners, Tony and Rhia, were friendly and helpful during our stay which we really appreciated.

What an amazing venue, The location was easy to get to also shops, pubs and places to visit are very close by. As we went during November despite the weather being cold (the log burner helped and a nice touch) and wet we still found plenty to do. All in all it was a lovely winter get away.

Sylvan View was a brilliant place to escape, it overlooks beautiful woodland which you can explore from the cabin and we spent hours wandering in the Luxulyan Valley without needing to drive anywhere. The cabin has all the amenities you need, comfy sofas and a table with space for eating/playing games, a large bathroom with a hot shower and a cupboRead moreard for clothes, a kitchen with an oven, big fridge and space to cook and a log burner.

We found Sylvan View to be even better than expected. It was very cosy and comfortable and the views were wonderful. It was so nice to go for a walk in the woods just beyond the cottage too. We enjoyed our stay and would love to return.

The cabin was in a beautiful location. Plenty of woodland walks on the doorstep and not far from the beaches. However I would not describe the accommodation as a cottage, it was a wooden cabin that really needed some maintenance work. It was quite shabby ie, the shower enclosure, the front door handle was loose, the overall appearance was rundown. Read moreAlso the cabin is not in a secluded spot and is in fact placed right infant of the camp site. The noise from the campsite can be clearly heard. Hide

Lovely cottage. Only issue is the steep ladder to get to the bedroom.
