About this property

Centrally located within a 20 minute drive from both the North and South Coasts offering an ideal touring base, this detached self-contained wooden cabin is set in tranquil countryside within the grounds of Little Hamlet Alpacas Rescue Centre (not open to the public).

Conveniently situated with easy road access for visiting the wonderful beaches and attractions that the whole county has to offer, this fully insulated and double-glazed property offers a unique and peaceful haven for couples, set well away from the owner's home.

Approached from the parking area where there is space for one car, a gated concrete path leads to a sheltered sitting out area which fronts Snuggledown with views over the 7 acre small holding containing alpacas. From here, patio doors lead directly into a pleasantly furnished open-plan living room with carpeted flooring, timber clad walls and ceiling and windows overlooking the south facing garden.

There is a comfortable leather settee and armchair facing a wall mounted electric living flame fire, a dining suite in the centre and a neatly fitted kitchen to one side incorporating a ceramic four ring hob, microwave and convection mini oven. At the rear is a screened bedroom area with a 5ft king-size bed and ample fitted wardrobes and an adjacent shower room W.C. with hand basin, electric shower and heated towel rail.

There are two oil filled electric radiators that provide enough warmth all year round and a private lawn has garden furniture where visitors can enjoy watching these curious animals up close in their enclosures. The nearest village store/P.O is at St Day, 1 mile, and the nearest pub is in walking distance at Vogue 3/4 mile away.

For a wider selection of local shops and a supermarket, Redruth is 2 miles away and the cathedral city of Truro just 9 miles. The North Coast beaches of Porthtowan and Portreath are 6 miles respectively yet the South Coast can also be reached in about 20 minutes where you will find the stunning beaches and maritime town of Falmouth.

The picturesque resort of St Ives with the Tate Gallery is just 30 minutes by car and there are also a plenitude of golf courses, houses and gardens to visit. The Mineral Tramway coast-to-coast cycle trail from Portreath to Devoran is within easy reach, as is Tehidy Country Park. Gwennap Pit is also less than half a mile where John Wesley once preached over 200 years ago.

  • Mr P Bennett

    Snuggledown is a lovely little cottage set in a unique and special place. Absolute peace and quiet, lovely scenery and daily greetings from the "gang" of Alpacas add up to the perfect relaxing holiday. We will absolutely visit again.

  • Mrs D Gower

    We loved Snuggledown, completely private, peaceful and secluded, yet within easy reach of places of interest. The Alpacas were an added, much enjoyed, bonus. Many thanks to all concerned.

  • Miss R Barton

    The best holiday accommodation and setting ever. The Alpacas and Di make great hosts.
