The sun is out! Spring flowers are growing to brighten us all up. Cottages are starting to fill up with guests eager to have a break from the norm. The smells of the dear, rabbits and badgers are full on at the moment and our dogs love a walk and what better place to go…
The sun has been out, the Daffodils and Primroses are popping up out of the ground. It will be Magnolia time before we know it. What better place to see these beautiful trees, than in Cornwall. Ruby Farmhouse Holiday Cottages are not far from lovely National Trust gardens and walks in order to see the…
We started taking bookings in our lovely granite Cornish holiday cottages 20 years ago! Where does the time go…. So much has changed in those 20 years and so have our guests. Die hard self catering guests seem few and far between now. I would like to make our new guests aware that by booking…
Happy New Year……where do I start, should I bother starting, I mean, there was a beginning last March, but there doesn’t appear to be a middle and no sign of an end. Guests in 2020 moved their dates to later on in 2020 and that worked very well, lots of lovely people who were very…

Looking after our zoo has been a total breeze. Walking the dogs, riding, trimming the dry goat feet, it was so incredibly easy. But wait a minute,…
Well, It’s that time of year again. Our decorators have been and given lots of TLC to Ruby Cottage. Next week they will turn their attention to Kernyk Cottage and finally our smallest, Dingley Cottage. In the meantime, I turn my thoughts to our guests. Will the retired guests, who visit, be as relaxed as…
I say, it’s tailing off, but we do appear to have a full house next week. Our season started in February and has been steady ever since. We’ve had the relaxed retirees, the young with boundless energy, the burnt out, the can’t be bothered, the in love, the disinterested, the unprepared, the overprepared, if they…
At last, what I have known all along has been confirmed! Yes I know it was a while ago but I got side tracked. Since I visited here over 10 years ago and knew if I didn’t live in Wales I could live in Cornwall because I just knew, in my gut, that Cornwall was…
