Tuckermarsh Quay River Cottage 2, 2 Tuckermarsh Quay, Bere Alston, Yelverton, Devon, PL20 7EY

Wow what can I say, we have the most amazing stay at tuckermarsh cottage, everything about it is beautiful including the views. Everything you need is there. The next door neighbour Frank was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our evenings eating tea on the decking admiring the gorgeous views. The cottage is beautifully layed out and very very clean, it made us feel very homely. I have read on other reviews problems regarding the access to the cottage which was not a issue what so ever for us and we have a Vaxuhall zafira 7 seater and had no problems. I would 100% recommended tuckermarsh to anybody you will not be dissapointed, thank you for making our holiday so amazing x

WOW. What an absolutely lovely cottage in the most spectacular and beautiful setting. The garden goes all the way down to the rivers edge where you can enjoy watching some amazing nature. Ignore the other negative comments about the access. I drive a mondeo Estate and had no issues with crossing the bridge. The cottage has everything a family needs to spend a week there and there is nothing wrong at all with the shower. The walks from the cottage are great. The trip on the train over to Calstock is good and we had a meal in the Tamar Inn which was lovely. Morwellham Quay just a short drive away is a must. Frank next door at number 1 is a lovely bloke and very helpful. He was there to greet us and even helped unloading our car. He gave us loads of info as to where and what to visit. This is a proper break away from the hussle and bustle of everyday life and having no WiFi meant we actually spoke to each other as a family instead of having our head buried in gadgets all the time. All in all you must come and stay at this beautiful cottage.

I usually begin reviews with the positives but I'm going to break with tradition here, because the major issue with this cottage is the access.

The cottage is reached down a mile long lane which is barely a car's width in some places, although there are some small passing places. The worst bit, though is when you have almost reached the parking area. Before this is a narrow and rather rickety 'sleeper' bridge, with a sharp right turn off it. Local people just shrugged their shoulders when we mentioned we found the access difficult, but it was quite telling t

Lovely, well equipped cottage in amazing location with wonderful views over the river into Cornwall. Especially enjoyed the complementary wine on the riverside deck watching the swan and baby cygnets. Beware the tortuous lane and sleeper bridge to the cottage, especially if you have a large car!

This was a lovely cosy cottage, in a surprisingly remote situation. The facilities were good and it was warm during cold weather. The best bits were the numerous walks from the door through woods and fields and along the river (we didn't use our car), and the little train over the river with great walks the other side. Everyone was helpful. The worst bit was the extremely narrow, rough and steep access road!
