Delightful Christmas Break
This is a traditional Cornish cottage in a great location which is beautifully furnished and decorated. The hostess had gone to a great deal of trouble to set up festive decorations, and it was so thoughtful to have a Christmas card and home made cake to greet our arrival. With its log fire and proximity to an excellent pub, it was everything we could have hoped for as a holiday getaway.

Perfectly located and brilliantly appointed
We had the most wonderful stay at Fairmaiden. Perfectly located on the main Street of Polruan we felt a part of village life. The cottage is very comfortably and we'll appointed with everything you could think to need. We enjoyed a mix of staying in to eat at home and watch a film and going out to the small pubs in the area all in easy distance. The courtyard is brilliant for catching the afternoon sun. We'll definitely be back !
