  • Charming character cottage with traditional beams, stonework, and a pretty courtyard garden
  • Peaceful retreat on a quiet country lane, surrounded by rolling hills in rural Cornwall
  • Relax with a drink on the secluded outdoor terrace, or light a fire in the cosy lounge

Property code: OC-P00429

The Aviaries is a traditional character cottage tucked away on a quiet 'no through' country lane, close to the heart of the small, peaceful, rural village of St Teath and offers a retreat away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. There is plenty to do and see nearby - If it's a day at the beach building sand castles and surfing you're after, the beautiful beach of Trebarwith Strand is about 3 miles away and Polzeath a 20 minute away and Daymer Bay is just a little further around the coast.  Small coastal villages such as Port Isaac, Port Quin, Port Gaverne and Boscastle are waiting to be explored or you can immerse yourself in the legend of King Arthur at Tintagel.  Away from the coast, countryside walks can be enjoyed from the village and the wide and wild expanses of Bodmin Moor are a short drive away - dotted around the edge of the moor you will find several villages, most of them with pubs offering a warm welcome and good food.  Exploring further afield, the Eden project is about 40 minutes' drive and there are several historic houses within easy reach. After a busy day, relax in the rear terraced and secluded outdoor space before heading just down the road to the local pub for food and drink or, in the cooler months, why not light the fire and enjoy a cosy night in?  Apart from the pub, St Teath also boasts a lovely local café and a post office, so all in all it's a great base for your holiday.

The property is probably one of cleanest places weve stayed in so we were very impressed with this. It had everything you needed and more. The parking is good, we were able to get our van on the driveway. The location is good as well with short journeys to loads of places like Polzeath or Newquay.

The Aviaries is a delightful, well equipped cottage, ideally suited for exploring North Cornwall. The cottage was very clean and cosy with good bedrooms and a lovely, private rear garden. Parking was fine, right next to the property. St. Teath is a quiet, pretty village with a lovely church and village pub. We would wholeheartedly recommend the AviRead morearies and were very sorry to leave. Hide

Tha Aviaries is a lovely old cottage in St.Teath village. Well positioned on a quiet road and close to the village pub where the food is first class. Only about 20 minutes to Port Issac and the superb beach at Polzeath. Wadebridge for shopping and the supermarkets. There is no village shop but the cafe does really great food and cakes. There is parRead moreking for two cars off road but occasionally people park inconsiderately opposite maling it a bit tricky to use the parking space. Overall though it's a great place for a relaxing Cornish break. Hide

I have rented many holiday cottages over the years, but The Aviaries is by far the best in a long time. Spotlessly clean in a very good location for day trips out and within walking distance of a very good local pub. So well equipped, that nothing I have at home could not be found in the cupboards. A very quiet and peaceful location, the most notRead moreiceable noise was constant bird song. We will be going back, as soon as we can find suitable dates when it is not already booked. Our advice; book it, you'll love it! Hide
