Overview
Property code: OC-SHILLI

Shillingstones is a charming, traditional Cornish cottage, located in a quiet lane in the pretty village of St Teath, with a pub a few minutes walk away. The 2 storey semi-detached cottage consists of a bright, open-plan kitchen/diner, a cosy lounge, 2 bedrooms ( one with en-suite shower room), a family bathroom and a pretty, enclosed garden. 

There is plenty to do and see nearby. The recently opened Sea View Farm Shop is a very popular new local venue, with hearty breakfasts at weekends, coffee and delicious cakes always available, and also hosts a number of musical events in the season. Stunning coastal views to enjoy whilst you relax. Options for a day on the beach include the beautiful beach of Trebarwith Strand about 3 miles away, and wonderful Polzeath and Daymer Bay are also within easy reach. You could while away the hours in small coastal villages such as Port Isaac, Port Quin, Port Gaverne and Boscastle, 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.

The property was exceptionally clean and well presented. It was great to have a large parking area and the garden was pleasant. There is a local pub within a short walk, serving good food with a varied menu. The very large double bed was extremely comfortable and the en suite an added bonus.

Such a lovely cottage. Perfect for our young family. Very relaxing, homely and peaceful. We absolutely loved our stay here. Appreciated the little extra child friendly touches little step stool so little ones can reach the sink and wash their hands independently, children's cutlery, plastic cups and Tupperware which was handy for lunchboxes. Also Read morethere is a stair gate on the twin bedroom (top of stairs) which gave me massive peace of mind for wandering children in the night! Kitchen was well equipped with everything we could possibly need. We also made use of some shopping bags/clothes airer and heater we found in the understairs cupboard. Its so peaceful in St Teath we all slept really, really well. Beds were the comfiest I have slept in. We visited lots of places in cornwall and Shillingstones was the perfect base to return to every evening. Local pub did absolutely amazing food as well! Honestly could not find one fault with our holiday cottage. Absolutely perfect. Oh and Dog friendly too Hide

The cottage is absolutely lovely. Highly recommend the White Hart Inn (1 min walk) and the local cafe is great. Dog walks - go to Rock beach dog friendly all year round. There is also a good walk at Davidstow Airfield. Tintagel is a must! Absolutely loved our stay.

We booked this cottage because we have friends that live in this village. We're SO glad we did! We have thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The cottage is so clean and well looked after. The beds are so comfy! We had every utensil we needed in the kitchen and the shower is perfect. Thank you for making this cottage a home from home. We hope to be backRead more next summer! Hide

Very nice cottage, clean and well equipped, grass had not been cut this year, complained and it was cut during the stay. Parking a bit of an issue as no allocated space, so needed to take pot luck.
