Super place on small site. Dog friendly too.
Great few days away, not far from amazing beach for the dog. Lovely quiet area with just a handful of lodges. Hosts super helpful and friendly. Lodges are of a good standard with modern bathrooms and everything that is needed.

Wonderful week despite weather!
The Forge was comfortable, very quiet and peaceful and situated very conveniently and central for our holiday.
The booking process was easy and efficient. Rebecca was very helpful.
The beds were really comfortable, water for showers was always hot and plentiful. The kitchen was well equipped but slightly on the small side!
We would stay again.

Amazing cottage in a perfect setting
The forge is a wonderful, comfy cottage, that is well equipped for a great stay on the north Cornish coast. With easy traveling to lots of great beaches, gardens and wonderful coastal walks. The Harrods team are just the best at what they do, very welcoming and nothing is too much trouble to make your stay great. The wonderful well kept grounds make you feel your in the middle of nowhere, yet the road links make it so easy to drive without the usual narrow lanes. I would highly recommend

Will always stay in here when in Cornwall!
Cannot recommend Harrods Cornish Cottages enough. Clean, comfortable, spacious and the location is amazing. 6 min drive from the beach, so perfect for people with Dogs.
Rebecca’s customer service is amazing as always and the little touches like homemade Jam and Apple Juice make you feel so welcome.
Thank you again! We will see you soon!

Perfect for our family
Great accommodation and location for our first time in Cornwall.
The apartment catered for all our needs and the kids just loved it.
We will definitely be coming back to Harrods Cottages if we visit Cornwall again.

Amazing
We had the most amazing holiday. The Forge was a home from home. It is ideally located and lovely and quiet. Perranporth is a short drive away and such a beautiful beach and dog friendly. Nothing was too much trouble for Rebecca she made our stay very comfortable. Thank you so much we will be visiting again.

Beautiful ,comfortable, spotlessly clean cottage.
Beautiful ,comfortable, spotlessly clean cottage, very well furnished. Small galley kitchen, extremely well equipped. Bedding and towels very high quality. Grounds and surroundings landscaped. In a beautiful setting, two miles from Perranporth's beautiful beach. All of Cornwall's attractions within easy reach. Owners on hand, very accessible if needed. This was our fifth holiday in past few years, every one has been absolutely perfect.

I can only praise and thank Rebecca and her family for everything. We booked five cottages and found them all to be excellent. My disabled daughter stayed in the coach house with a carer and Rebecca purchased a special hospital style bed and a gantry hoist for the hot tub; what an amazing service! My wife and I stayed next door in the Stables, also very well equipped and adapted; both have amazing wet rooms. The rest of the care team stayed in the Forge and Wishing Well and my teenage son stayed in the Hideaway; they were all very happy. All the cottages are built, equipped and adapted to a very high standard. Wishing Well is just down the lane from the main site. The cottages on the main site are all tucked away in a secluded setting surrounded by open countryside within lovely gardens - gorgeous. The location is wonderful with close and easy access to the towns and beaches near the sea - perfect. Fantastic service and response from Rebecca and her family if you need anything both at the time of booking and when you are there. We will be back!

Perfect Holiday
We can not thank Rebecca and her team enough for not just excellent customer service, accommodation and location but for the little extras provided along the way.
The Forge was perfect in every way. Comfortable, pet friendly, spotlessly clean and anything you would hope for provided.
On top of that the gardens and surrounding areas were brilliant for our dog who enjoyed it equally.
Thank you for your hospitality and we will be back :)

Forge retreat
We really enjoyed staying at the forge , everything we needed. The lodge was well equipped, with excellent bathrooms and bedrooms . The grounds had a lovely garden to sit and walks for the dogs. We would highly recommend staying at one of Harrods lodges.
