Quirky but great.
If what you are looking for is a boring, soulless establishment where every room is the same, like you get in a Holiday Inn, Travelodge or Premier Inn then this is not for you. What you do get is a personal service from a friendly couple who know their stuff and make you very welcome. This is a 350 year old cottage where every room is different but nonetheless exceptionally clean and comfortable. Plus the breakfasts are excellent and cater for all tastes, even non carnivores.

Warm, Friendly & Welcoming
Host very warm and welcoming. Nice location. Good breakfast to set you up for the day ahead, would have liked more coffee, but in all fairness, I should have asked. Bed was lovely and comfy good shower, nice view over the garden. Nothing too much trouble. Would definitely use this BnB again, good location for exploring the area.

A tucked out of the way B&B
A tucked out of the way up a country lane, this B&B has a very country like feel (overlooking green fields, chickens running around in garden etc), so a nice little escape for us 'townies'. Lovely breakfast and Landlady very welcoming and friendly. Room was quite small but not an issue as we only used the place as a base. Good location for Fowey and surrounding area and especially good location for the Eden Project.

Overpriced B&B, with very cramped rooms
The room and bathroom were extremely cramped, and accessible by steep and awkward stairs. Also, the cottage is right by a busy main road, and the traffic noise made sleeping difficult. Our room wasn't cleaned, allegedly because of covid rules (which didn't seem to affect the other places we stayed on our holiday). The sitting room was also closed to guests. We left after two days, even though it meant sacrificing the final day's payment. The next place we stayed had bedrooms and bathrooms twice the size, and cost £80 compared to the £125 a night at Vine Cottage. Our hostess claimed that the website made it clear that the cottage was not suitable for anyone with mobility issues; However, that information was not obvious on it; it even took our hostess a couple of minutes to find it! No complaints about the breakfast, which was very good, with home made jam.

Oh dear . You people needed a ground floor room or a b & b that can accommodate your mobility issues. We are a 17th cottage with bedrooms that you would expect, it does say on our website that we are unsuitable for people with mobility problems but you booked it anyway and then got grumpy with me . You did leave a day early but this was due to you struggling with the stairs . Our prices are very good for our location and for everything we offer to our guests . I’m really pleased with Simon and I for the way we have dealt with the Covid pandemic, we opened to keyworkers and did our very best to stick to the cleaning and distancing regimes and everything else we put into place to keep ourselves and our guests safe and this was kept up when we opened to everyone else, now we are almost back to normal but we have kept up the extra cleaning and I will not apologise for that . I am glad you found somewhere else more suitable and I am guessing you continued your holiday

Great!
If you’re expecting corporate accommodation, don’t stay here, however, if you want a traditional B & B, we couldn’t recommend this place more. Paula and Simon are superb hosts - genuine and down to earth with all the time in the world to chat and talk about the many flora and fauna in their garden. The accommodation is exactly what you would expect from a quirky house. The breakfast was the best we have had bar none. All sourced locally, and of high quality. Ask for anything and it will be achieved 😊. God bless them both.

Absolutely charming B&B. Paula was very welcoming and friendly. The cottage was immaculate. The breakfast was wonderful and freshly cooked. It is an ideal location for sightseeing. it is well signposted from the main road, but less well signposted on the property itself. The signs are only really visible as you drive down to the main road. Vine cottage is the first property on the left as you pull off the A390. I would recommend this B&B and would happily use it again.
