About this property
Resting in the centre of the quaint village of St Teath is the delightful, Hawthorn Cottage. This chocolate-box, detached cottage has been designed to bring families and friends together to enjoy this beautiful part of Cornwall, filled with attractions and activities to suit all ages and tastes. The interior offers a lovely blend of contemporary style with touches of original features to ensure a warm and welcoming atmosphere to spend your evenings relaxing with loved ones. After a busy day exploring the idyllic North Coast of Cornwall, look forward to curling up on the plush sofas which rest in front of the woodburning stove, whilst you flick on the TV. Move into the stylish kitchen to prepare your meals, complete with a host of integrated appliances to ensure your culinary requirements are met, while the dining table offers the perfect spot to enjoy mealtimes. As you tire, head upstairs to find the bedrooms, offering a choice of two king-size bedrooms, and one single bed (with a trundle underneath) each delightfully furnished in neutral tones and hosting plenty of storage for your personal items. Served by a sleek bathroom and shower room, there’s plenty of space to prepare for the day. Continuing to impress is the charming garden area, split over 3 areas with plenty of seating and sun loungers provided; kick back with a refreshing gin and tonic and soak up the Cornish sunshine. Moments from the property is the White Hart Inn, a friendly pub serving tasty grub, as well as a pretty café where sweet treats can be sampled. There is also a Post Office within a short walking distance. Those who love the outdoors will appreciate the rugged landscapes of Bodmin Moor, one of Cornwall’s designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, while the idyllic South West Coast Path offers a gentler walking route with some unbeatable coastline vistas. Plan a visit to the captivating coastal village of Tintagel, promising an unforgettable visit with its quaint buildings and breath-taking scenery, and from here you can also take a trip to Port Isaac and Padstow, both offering oodles of coastal charm. Hawthorn Cottage is a great touring base for taking in all that North Cornwall has to offer.

We were so grateful, after having to leave our Airbnb, for such a perfect, well appointed and considerately though out cottage. Liz was a thoroughly excellent host, who communicated really well with us during our stay, even looking to accommodate our design to get in a little early. The day we arrived we also got to experience the St Teath Carnival go right past the door, which was lovely. We can't recommend Hawthorne Cottage and Sykes highly enough. For us, our 2 older teenager daughters and the dog it was just perfect. Forever grateful.

It was a real home from home which is no surprise as the owners used to live there. The kitchen is well stocked with crockery, cutlery, glassware, utensils and cookware. The garden on 3 levels is great and secure for dogs. Getting sunshine all day is a real bonus especially with full bi-fold patio doors. The bedrooms are comfortable and nicely furnished with lots of hangers and storage. Two bathrooms and a great hall with more storage make it a lovely living space. We had a fire most evenings just for the joy of it. The heating was more than enough to make the cottage warm and toasty.

The cottage is certainly a hidden gem, well situated in the village and modern and clean throughout. Many thanks for the voucher we used in the White Hart Pub which is thoroughly recommended for some great pub food. Lola the Retriever loved the secure garden to stretch her legs in. The cottage is well placed for short journeys to Wadebridge and Padstow. Thoroughly recommend this gem to anyone and will be booking again.
