Upton Mill

Upton Mill is a great choice for larger parties. It is very comfortable, with an extremely well-equipped kitchen and plenty of places to sit and relax. Although a little off the beaten track, the views are stunning.

simply a great place. was here before some years ago and the repeat was as good as the first time.

This is a beautiful house for a large group. We had a 60th birthday celebration there and it was just perfect. We loved the open living area. We didn’t want for anything - it’s extremely well equipped. We particularly liked the wine fridge! The beds are comfortable with nice linens. The views are wonderful as is the Port William which we visited often!

If you’re looking for a peaceful spot, unbeatable views with walk through the fields to the beach & pub, you’ll not be disappointed with this one. We visited as a large family and there was plenty of room for everyone.

Beautiful house and great for large families or groups Spectacular views from a fabulous spacious lounge - With lots of seating Modern and very well equipped kitchen with everything you need Comfy beds Lovely countryside and a good beach is nearby Some bedrooms are underground with very tiny windows that are located at ground level and therefore are dark Garden requires some maintenance and the old furniture should be removed

Extremely well equipped furnished and fitted 5 ensuite bedroom property, with excellent sea and countryside view from the spacious living area with a seated balcony ,also one of the bedrooms. Most suited to extended family group rather than a joint booking by a group as there is a big difference in the facility and space offered by the various bedrooms. Drivers need to be competent at reversing in narrow, stone wall edged, country lanes to cope with the traffic on the access road . This road is heavily used in season to get to Trebarwith Strand beach. This popular surfing beach is one of the few where dogs are allowed all year around and there is only a useable beach for 2-3 hours either side of low tide.

Beautiful property, everything we needed for a family holiday and more. Lovely location with fantastic views from the living / dining area. Would highly recommend this property

This is a beautiful house in an idyllic location. Fantastically equipped with every attention to detail. Loved it, thanks!

Beautiful barn in stunning rural location with good access to footpaths and coastline. House is very comfortable and spacious and well stocked for families.

If you are looking for an exceptional and well equipped home that sleeps ten comfortably, then I cannot recommend Upton Mill too strongly. The house exceeded all our expectations and was ideally situated to give peaceful seclusion with easy walking and access to beaches. The views from the balcony are wonderful.

A very beautiful property with plenty of space and well located

A very homely and spacious house with several different relaxing areas. Location is great for Padstow and beaches with some stunning walks close by. Quiet and yet close to amenities.

This is a comfortable and spacious holiday home - perfect for larger parties. Coastal walks, beaches and pubs all easily accessible by foot or short car drive. Would thoroughly recommend and we would hope to return.

Peacefulness, wide spaces (inside and outside) and one of the most extraordinary views made our stay at Upton Mill a glorious break from the city. Beautifully decorated and, as the accommodation was full of modern conveniences, we could relax as soon as we arrived. With Trebarwith Strand, Tintagel, Port Isaac, Rock and Padstow so very close by, opportunities for days out were many and varied, and the stunning coastal walks gave us the necessary exercise on a daily basis. As there are relatively few supermarkets nearby, it is probably wise to book a grocery delivery, which is incredibly easy and very reliable. A perfect sitting and layout for a large family or group of friends.

Compared to our visit in 2019, the property seems tired and not as loved as much as it used to be. The general state of this and the garden was disappointing on comparison. View and position however cannot be criticised in any way. Rating in 2019 would have been excellent. Unfortunately not this time.

The cottage itself overall was lovely but there are many little bits that need to be addressed, especially for the price the owners are asking for a week here. The photos on the website were very misleading. The photos made it look like every room was very bright and welcoming when in actual fact 3 of the 4 rooms downstairs are very dark and have 1 or 2 very tiny windows. The pictures on the website have been lightened and all the lights turned on to make the rooms look like bright daylight floods the room, this is very much not the case! Also there were no pictures showing the Velux windows in the upstairs room, which I would not have stayed in had I had known as when it rains, these types of windows are extremely loud. The courtyard and the garden out the back are in desperate need of looking after and maintaining as they looked very tatty and run down. More lamps are also needed inside the main family room so the stark overhead lights don’t always have to be used. The lamps in the tv room were sufficient but we’re not checked before we got there and so one of them wasn’t working. The light switches themselves, even though some are labelled are extremely confusing throughout the whole cottage which I have seen other people mention on here. All lights switches need to be labelled when you have multiple switches for the same lights! There were a lot of cobwebs behind the bath in the upstairs bedroom along the floor and walls and up the bath, there was food found under the sofas which our dog found, and a lot of the plates, bowls etc had to be rinsed out before we used them. Also trinkets and other things were found under the beds in the downstairs rooms so the 6 hours between the last people having to leave and the new people arriving so the house can be cleaned is obviously not being used to it’s full extent. There also seems to be a problem with the communal upstairs toilet leaking and also there is an issue with the downstairs shower flooding with dirty water when the bath in the room next to it (the two rooms off the main foyer) is emptied. The sofas in the main family room and tv room very much need to be upgraded and soft close toilet seats would be a boon! A welcome book giving all the info you need regarding WiFi, bins, heating controls etc in one place would be a good addition instead of having info dotted around the house in different areas. I think with the amount being charged, a minimum of £1800 per week, these issues could be addressed very easily. When you are paying a premium price, you expect the little details to be looked at and resolved. I was quite disappointed after having our holiday price upped after the first delay due to COVID restrictions, with the reason given that improvements were made over that time, yet all these issues still exist. What were these improvements? All in all, apart from these issues the cottage is nice, the view is spectacular and if these issues were sorted

This cottage has Spectacular views and we enjoyed sitting on the balcony enjoying a meal/ drinks . We found the location is remote but once we got used to the lane found our way around with ease. The kitchen is well equipped and has a big fridge/freezer . The village has a shop but we got a food delivery sent to the cottage. We had a lovely holiday in Cornwall

We have given Upton Mill three stars because we feel that they do need to address some issues. The house is beautiful and on the whole it is very well stocked. You do have to be a confident driver on the narrow roads but that's part of Cornwalls charm. The views from upstairs are amazing and although the weather could have been kinder, the balcony was well used.

Outstanding views over the coastline; very spacious and comfortable accommodation.

Amazing property, well equipped with stunning views. We would definitely book the property again.

A fabulous house in a lovely part of Cornwall.

I believe this accommodation to be of the very best Cornwall has to offer, however if you are not used to, or uncomfortable in reversing your vehicle back up narrow country lanes where grass grows in the middle in places, this gem may not be for you.

We loved our stay at Upton Mill - a fantastic property in a super location. Loads of space & comfort, & lots of lovely little touches that made it feel like home!

Stunning location

Upton Mill is a fantastic holiday home. It’s a wonderful space for a group to spend time together and has views to die for. The house is well equipped, beautiful fully decorated and most importantly, feels like home from home and so makes for a very relaxing holiday base. We’d happily return for another holiday here.

Such a wonderful choice! The house is a lot bigger than the website seems to suggest and there was plenty of space for 6 adults and 3 small children to spread out and relax. The luxurious bedroom upstairs serves as a peaceful bolthole, away from the nocturnal disturbance of tiny guests. The room is so cosy when the wind is howling round that corner of the building and the rain is lashing against the skylights. (Yes, even in August!) We enjoyed watching spectacular sunsets, though wish the weather had been kinder so we could have enjoyed meals out on the balcony and played in the garden. The décor is beautiful and we enjoyed choosing our favourite artwork from the many displayed around the house. The house has so many stylish touches, yet is also relatively child-friendly. We would love to return, though hope to be greeted by less saggy, woebegone sofas next time! (The only downside to this house.)

Beautiful large, comfortable house with spectacular sunsets

A good location. Fabulous views from the decking. Housekeeping/maintenance could have been more diligent. Watch out for the lane, it gets very narrow in places. Trebarwith Strand beach is excellent as is the Cafe and the Port William Pub.

We stayed at Upton Mill with 3 more couples to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday. We had the best time ever. As soon as we opened the front door it felt like home and catered for everybody's needs. The complimentary wine, beer and biscuits were a lovely touch, even fresh milk in the fridge. Exceptionally clean and well presented with breathtaking views an added bonus. Idyllically located for walks and trips to local tourist hotspots such as Port Isaac, Boscastle and Tintagel. This is the perfect cottage to celebrate and enjoy whatever the occasion and would love to return one day.

Idyllic accommodation in a beautiful part of the country , well equipped with every comfort to ensure a great holiday whatever the weather !

Excellent stay, property beautiful, easy access to other places. Had a wonderful holiday and house made it for us all. Would book again.

We spent the first three days marvelling at our surroundings. Staying here was what made our holiday so fantastic. Thank you!

Suited us all very well in spite of the weather. Heating was very welcome.

This was an absolute find, a beautiful house with fantastic views and equipped with everything you could possibly want. The accommodation was spacious and seemed to have an atmosphere where you could relax the minute you stepped inside. The decor was just perfect and as a party of 10 adults celebrating a silver wedding anniversary we had the most wonderful time here

This was a really fabulous cottage. Beautiful both inside and out. Spacious and well thought out, perfect for a gathering of 10 adults. Lovely views. Well equipped.

Beautiful, well-equipped property in a wonderful location; we'd love to go again.

This property was stunning the interior was gorgeous and the view was unbelievable. The beds were top quality comfort with feather duvets and good pillows. The kitchen was well stocked with all the essentials you may need including dishwasher tablets, washing liquid, cling film, foil, Tupperware s and a welcome pack of goodies. It's the little touches like enough toilet rolls, gorgeous local body washes and the draws had smell bags too all Devine. The only negative are the sofas are a bit old which let it down but only slightly!

I would give the Cottage 5 stars if all the issues that occurred had not occurred, but 4 stars given these issues. I should add that the staff at Classic Cottages were first rate and took steps to resolve issues almost as soon as they were reported.

Wonderful spot to enjoy Cornwall at its very best, incredibly well stocked and decorated .what a find!!!!

This is a cosy but spacious cottage. The décor is outstanding & the views are to die for. We saw a beautiful sunset even though it was the end of October. Will visit again.

Outstandingly well equipped and comfortable accomodation for a large family benefiting from a recent balcony and patio extension that enables enjoyment of the superb sunset view to the west. Extremely well maintained and managed just returned from a visit for our 6th year in succession and already booked in, again for 2017.

Spacious, ideal for large group. Balcony a great addition and should be featured more strongly.

Lovely place ideal for a family getaway

Accommodation was spacious, generally well equipped, light and airy, although the twelve light switches at the top of the stairs were challenging when trying to find the right light for a specific area of the sitting area and kitchen!

Delightful well appointed comfortable cottage in a great location. Will certainly return and have recommended it to friends.

The accommodation is first class and is idea for a large party. Highly recommended

We loved the view, were very lucky with the weather and the location was very handy for exploring North Cornwall. The property delighted us and exceeded our expectations in size, comfort, cleanliness, equipment provided and the lovely view from the garden. Our booking was made at short notice (just 6 days before arrival) and the booking was quick, easy and confirmed by post 2 days later. It was our first experience of bookign a holiday cottage and we were blown away with the property. lcoation and equipment - top quality. Absolutely delighted with our 5 day break. Wish it had been longer and we will definitely use Classic Cottages again when holidaying in the South West. Many Thanks.

Very spacious. Comfortable. Plenty of room for at least 4 to cook in the kitchen without falling out! We had a fabulous time.

Our family has rented this accommodation for the last 4 years it is so good we keep wanting to go back.

Lovely spacious cottage with amazing sea views , a spectacular sight at sunset. Conveniently situated for trbarwith strand a wonderful beach for children and surfers

Lovely property, great location
