Here’s what Drew wrote to Jeff Hardman
“In short: Jeff's studio, its location and his hosting were all ideal. I could not recommend the experience highly enough. To be more detailed: I stayed in Jeff's studio for one month. On the studio -- Extremely well-appointed. The studio contains everything you might need. Nice shower, great bed, kitchen full of appliances/dishes, good WIFI, great views, nice little private deck in the back, washing machine, washer, and clothes line out front. On the location -- Treen was described to me (by one of the locals) as the "most gentle place in all of Cornwall" and I could not agree more. Jeff's place is connected to the village of Treen, which itself contains one great pub, a large farm where you can buy very fresh milk and eggs every day, a campsite with a store full of all sorts of goods and small café, among a few other private places. From Jeff's the walk to Porthcurno is about 20 minutes, but it's a glorious walk, along the some of the most gorgeous country I've seen. And, closer than Porthcurno are other little coves/beaches, one of which has an amazing sand bar at low tide, and which I would rate higher than Porthcurno. Even closer still is head land of grand proportions that you can hike on called Logan's Head. The stars come out at night, are big an bright. The air is extremely fresh and clean. The neighbourhood is very quiet and peaceful. And everyone just seemed to take kindness to nth degree. I should also add that out Jeff's backyard is an enormous valley/forest, full of wild streams, horses and cows, which is obviously great to hike through too. On Jeff the host -- Jeff was highly responsive and professional, but also open and kind. He was easy to communicate with, answered all of my questions, gave me recommendations on places to visit, walk, hike and also offered to drive me a few places too. Five Stars! Do it! But please be kind when you arrive too. Treen is a gem that we should all work to take care of.”
