Stay in rare survival of an unspoilt cob and stone Cornish cottage with a part-thatched, part-slate roof. Inside you’ll find all the quirks of traditional country cottage as well as a few modern comforts. Low beamed ceilings, slate floors and wonky timber frames are met by modern furnishings. You’ll have your own enclosed garden too, which is a real sun-trap in the summer and views of other historic buildings nearby.
The cosy lounge features a working fireplace, meaning you can stay toasty all-year-round. There's also a comfy sofa to sink into and a couple of big arm chairs that are ideal for reading whilst enjoying a nice cup of tea. There's even an upstairs sitting room with another sofa and set of arm chairs, so there's space for everyone to spread out and enjoy some privacy when relaxing if needed.
The quaint kitchen has enough modern appliances to make meal prep a breeze, as well as a butler sink and a cute window to the outside. The open space also features a dining table with space for six and a door out into the pretty garden. In the warmer months, guests will love dining al fresco on the picnic bench that sits out on the lawn.
The two bedrooms feature comfy beds. One has a double, whilst the second bedroom has two singles. Both rooms share a family bathroom that features a bath tub, WC, and sink.
Just outside your doorstep, a network of footpaths will lead you around Loe Pool, the largest freshwater lake in Cornwall, and its densely wooded banks. The golden sands of Loe Bar are just a 25-minute walk from the cottage.
For the nearest town, the bustling town of Helston is just a 5-minute drive. Further afield, the fascinating island of St Michael’s Mount can be reached in 25 minutes. Take a short evocative boat trip to the island, or at low tide, enjoy the walk across the causeway. Discover its iconic medieval church and castle and its subtropical terraced garden.
