You may occasionally see a friendly local or a passing dog walker.

• Steep staircase – may not be suitable for small children or those with mobility issues
• Low ceilings and door frames throughout – please mind your head!
• Shower height is limited: guests over 5’8” will need to bathe rather than stand

Hi, I'm Emma. I grew up in Wadebridge and still return regularly with my dogs to explore the coastal paths and local food spots I love. Hosting gives me the chance to share a little piece of this special place with others. Burrow Cottage is my much-loved home, full of character and charm. I hope to live in Cornwall full time one day, but until then, I’m sharing my favourite place with guests who come to enjoy North Cornwall.
