I have stayed twice in the last few months, which should be commendation enough. However, I should like to add that it is always a pleasure to be back in PG and in particular to see old friends and enjoy their hospitality. Although I know a number of the cottages well, on both recent occasions I enjoyed Jasmine Cottage as it is so well suited to my needs. I particularly found the facilities, decor and furnishings ideal for a North Cornwall holiday cottage and the owners can rest assured that I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great location for a great holiday or break. Perfectly located
