Highermead House was one of the less expensive places the GPS showed reasonably close to Tintagel (King Arthur's castle) so we booked it without high expectations. Boy, were we surprised, starting with the nice confirmation note Kasey sent.
The GPS took us to a tiny gate in a very narrow tree tunnel. But a few yards further is the wide entrance with lots of parking around what will one day be a fountain (once the outside is renovated). Jon greeted us and took us through a large, beautiful, warm and welcoming, sitting room to a very nicely decorated room that had everything we'd need - microwave, fridge, dishes, table and chairs, lighted mirror in the bathroom, nook in the shower for shower gel. Without having met Kasey, I knew immediately it was her work. She had put some serious thought and effort into it. Later she told me she put everything in it that she would want.
Thank you, Jon and Kasey, for being so warm and friendly and having such delightfully fun boys. We couldn't have picked a better place to stay!
I'd give it 20 stars if I could!

The downstairs was amazing. Very art focused and staff very attentive. Dogs welcome. Ted and his tour were very informative and he is one fantastic artist with his artwork being shown all over the castle.

Camelford itself I'd say was ok, but it's location in relation to places like tintagel, Bude, port Isaac and Padstow is second to none, not to mention the countless little bays and beaches on the north coast it's a great base spot with all a short drive away.

It was clean, comfy, with everything we could need in a peaceful green location. Breakfast available if you wanted, welcoming touches such as mini bottle of local milk, books available and a proper door to the clean and well appointed shower room/toilet. Everything was in working order.

Camelford was a nice place and there was a lovely walk in the park along by a river and it was near to the places we wanted to go to which were Tintagel, Port Issac and Bos castle and we had some very nice meals out as well. I would definitely stay there again as it was so relaxing.

Went with my 2 children , age 6 and 10 and my partner.
Went with my 2 children , age 6 and 10 and my partner.
Hosts were lovely. Grounds were too and the children loved the horses.
The property was located centrally which was good.
The cottage was cozy and clean.
The children’s beds were fine , but the adults double bed was standard.
My partner is 6ft 2, I am 5ft 7.
We couldn’t turn over without waking up .
We had sore backs and no sleep for 2 nights so we decided to leave and checked out at tea time on the 3rd day after the second night.
We told the host and also asked for a partial refund because we didn’t stay the 4 nights as paid.
The host wouldn’t partial refund although being honest and open about the bed, tiredness annd back pain and also with having to cut the holiday short by 2 nights.
We had a 5 hours drive to as well.
I’ve been honest and that’s my experience.
Book if you are ok with a standard double bed for 2 adults.
Apart from the bed , it was nice.

Most of our time was spent outside of Camelford.
Most of our time was spent outside of Camelford. We started with Tintagel and in other days went to Boscastle and to Bude. We did walk around Camelford. There is a very nice yarn store which sells knitting needles and other re-usable supplies in addition to yarn.
With regard to 6. below, I can't say anything about golf as none of our party plays it.

Mayrose Cottage is a perfect retreat hidden away in a peaceful spot in the North Cornwall countryside, yet within easy reach of the coast. Boscastle, Tintagel, Port Isaac, Rock & Padstow are all within easy reach. Trebarwith Strand is a lovely golden dog friendly beach. And a great spot for watching sunsets too.

The cottage is fully equipped and super clean. Kitchen is pretty new and modern with stove, oven, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher and plenty cookware and cutleries. We didn’t use the washing machine, but there is one available. Two toilets in the cottage, one upstairs with shower and one downstair which is very handy. Sofa is very comfortable. Beds are not too soft, so we sleep really well. Will come back again next time we visit north Cornwall.
I am a vegetarian and the breakfasts were really delicious.
Gregg and Debbie were very friendly.
Camelford may not appeal to everyone but it is seems like a bit of real Cornwall away from the holiday cottages of the coast
