The historic Trelowarren Estate is right next door, with 5 miles of public walks as well as an excellent restaurant. Numerous beaches, large and small, are within 10 miles, and the foodie town of Porthleven is just 7 miles away. The beautiful village of Helford is 4.5 miles, while for larger shops, Helston is 5.5 miles. Great days out for all the family include the Cornish Seal Sanctuary (2 miles), the sub-tropical gardens at Trebah and Glendurgan, both 8 miles and the castle on St Michael’s Mount (15 miles). For art galleries, boutique shops, places to eat and more excellent beaches, Falmouth is 11.5 miles and St Ives is 20 miles.
This enchanting, single-level cottage boasts a delightful combination of neutral tones and soft colours that provide a tranquil ambience. Pull up directly outside, where there’s parking for two cars, and enter the kitchen/diner, where you’ll find a dining nook with a table for four and a kitchen that includes everything the cook will need to prepare delicious holiday meals – including that all-important coffee machine. This room flows through into the sunny lounge, which has views to the deck, via patio doors, and over the countryside beyond. Sink into the comfortable seating and enjoy a good book, or draw the curtains and stream your favourite shows on the Smart TV. The delightful double bedroom includes a traditional-style metal bed and ample storage for clothes, while the twin bedroom at the rear of the house has a large window that overlooks the garden. Do bear in mind that these beds are 2’6” singles. Completing the interior is a family shower room.
You’ll want to spend plenty of time enjoying the bungalow’s fabulous garden, which includes decking set across three levels. Step through the patio doors in the lounge (or via the side gate) to access the deck, where you can sip a coffee in the morning or have supper alfresco and watch the stars come out. Five wooden steps take you down to the paved central level, and then it’s a further two stone steps to the lowest level, where there are two sun loungers, and a BBQ provided for your use.
