We stayed over the long Easter weekend, Lee and Simon (the hosts) were so helpful and friendly, the cottage was clean and well presented, they had gone to so much effort and thoughtful finishing touches, this cottage is a gem of a find and I will definitely be staying again, thank you Lee and Simon for a lovely holiday cottage

I can highly recommend The Shippon as a comfortable, restorative, refreshing place to stay. It is well equipped, cosy and quiet. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The shippon is well located for exploring both the north and south coast, the surrounding area is beautiful. I stayed with my son. A highlight was cycling the Camel trail, which is close bRead morey.

We love travelling to Cornwall and found the Shippon well located for exploring the North Coast. We particularly enjoyed visiting the fishing harbours and walking on the moors. Everything needed for an enjoyable stay is found in the Shippon. We look forward to returning in 2024.
