Description

Located in an idyllic, rural setting, this lovely cottage enjoys views over unspoilt countryside near to the riverside village of Lerryn.  The beautiful garden has total privacy and is complete with seating and a barbecue for those lazy summer evenings relaxing while watching the sun go down.  The White Cottage is also perfect for a winter get-away as it features both an AGA in the kitchen, providing that warm glow to the house, and also a woodburner in the lounge for cosy evenings in. A welcome hamper of tea and biscuits are put in the kitchen ready for your arrival. Fresh flowers are put in each room for your stay from the beautiful, wild garden. The surrounding countryside is picture-perfect - rolling green fields and meadows and little boats dotting the shoreline of the nearby tidal river at Lerryn.  Just a 2 minute drive away, Lerryn provides a popular inn and a village stores as well as its picturesque river scenery.  A haven for nature-lovers and bird watchers, The White Cottage is set in a truly peaceful location yet only 2 miles from the market town of Lostwithiel and only 5 miles from Fowey (via the Bodinnick ferry).

Reviews

Lovely peaceful rural cottage with very friendly helpful hosts. Ideal base for walks and the beautiful Cornish coastline

Mr H,

We absolutely loved our week's stay at The White Cottage we were blessed with fantastic weather too. The owners were so helpful with local info for us. The cottage is in a stunning location so very peaceful with fab views a complete get away from it all break...we had fun cooking on the Aga a first for us both. All in all a wonderful holiday we loved it ❤️

Mrs G,

Great place, very nice owners next door, something special. Somewhat remote (car necessary) but then again, not far from the coast and also not far from small and larger villages. If you are looking for something with character, something authentic, but still comfortable in a nice and quiet location this is it. It would work well in winter too I'm sure.

Mr H,

Well equipped cottage, clean and very friendly owners who were happy to answer any queries.

A relaxing week for us visiting some areas we have not seen before and some that we have - great to revisit. We hope to return again maybe next year, it is so lovely here, relaxing and wonderful views. Thank you for your kind hospitality. - Brian

Past Customer,

Thank you so much for our lovely stay at White Cottage. Such a tranquil setting, a truly wonderful retreat, surrounded by nature. To hear and see the housemartins each morning and evening, the baby bunnies on the lawn, the deer - a sense of calm after the hustle and bustle of life at home. We've explored so many places during our stay. The cottage itself is beautiful and well equipped, the beds are comfortable - a perfect lace from which to explore this part of Cornwall. - The Pickerings

Location

The village straddles two parishes: north of the river it is in the parish of St Winnow and to the south, St Veep. The village has a post office and village shop, "Lerryn River Stores", which also provides fresh tea, coffee and cakes seven days a week, ideal for walkers taking advantage of the many beautiful walks in the area. The Ship Inn, dates from at least 1762 and there is an Elizabethan bridge crossing the river or alternatively why not try crossing using the famous stepping stones. The village hosts an annual 'Seagull' race, for any type of watercraft providing it is propelled by a 'Seagull' outboard motor. This event attracts competitors from all over the world looking for an extraordinary challenge.
