    Like many of the other reviews, we wished we'd booked more than one night! My Partner and I live locally in St Austell but with the season picking up we don't find much 'us' time in-between working, so had a phone free evening/night/morning in this gorgeous hut, super cosy and well equiped, and if you're an animal lover like myself the ponies are an added bonus, so friendly and inquisitive whilst we ate our breakfast outside watching them roam. The hut is small but so well kitted out, also surprisingly not claustrophobic, my partner is 6ft so found the bed to be slightly snug but manageable short-term. Our favourite place we've stayed as a couple, we will definitely be back!

    The shower head didn’t aim at you very well as the attachment holding it to the wall was worn. The lock on the front door was incredibly stiff as the door had swollen so getting in and out proved difficult. I also had no phone service or mobile data and there was no on site WiFi or a TV. I also wish I could have cuddled the ponies more as they were just gosh darn adorable.

    The ponies were adorable, the parking was easy and the location was amazing. The hut was very aesthetic and cosy and even though it was cold when we got there, the heaters warmed it up extremely quickly.

    No mobile phone hook up to charge up. Beware how quickly the heater warms up Miners hut very efficiently. Shower Towels didn’t smell as fresh as they should. Maybe the car parking space made a bit larger. As turn around space was a bit back and forth.

    Clean and tidy with tea and coffee when you arrive. Beds comfortable, good shower with everything you need for short stay. Directions given to you are spot on. Wife fell in love with the pony’s.

    It was a bit chilly, and the walls got slightly damp due to the cold, causing the bed to get a bit damp.

    We loved the little ponies and the helpful map and food ideas. The games were amazing and we loved having a fire too. It was in a great location very close to the eden project and other points of interest. The hut itself was very clean and tidy. The photos of the place were very accurate and its in a beautiful area. It's amazing that someone so young is in charge of this.

    There is nothing we didn’t like! As we had very busy days we only wish we spent longer actually in The Miner’s Hut.

    The Miner’s Hut was simply beautiful, so well thought out and cozy. We appreciated the no contact arrival and yet despite this it felt so incredibly inviting. It’s prettily lit up outside once dark and toasty warm inside - we didn’t need to do anything, it was all set! It is well equipped (we definitely over-packed!) and had so many homely touches. We loved the view and the friendly ponies, it just felt so special. The location was great, like you were in the middle of nowhere, but so close to local amenities. We would really love to come back!

    No blind on door window so light came in early. Bed normal size but with cabin walls would be slightly cramped if tall.

    Really cute hut, small but very clean and well equipped. Lovely garden area and views. Quiet location. Wandering ponies to say hello to! Owners really quick to communicate and helpful. Lots of local guide books. Walking distance to a winery!
