About this property
This country retreat sits within three and a half miles of the beautiful beaches at Trevaunance Cove at St Agnes, Porthtowan, Porth Chapel, and Portreath, on the north Cornish coastline.
In a countryside setting, alongside the owner home, it has a patio area with seating to enjoy an alfresco meal or morning coffee in the sunshine, guests also have access to the stunning garden creating a holiday home for couples seeking a tranquil spot within easy reach of resorts and scenic landscapes for countryside escapism and seaside adventures. All on the ground floor, the accommodation is well presented, with sunny open plan sitting room with doors to the patio area and attractive shared garden beyond with lawn and mature borders. The beaches on the Atlantic coast offer surfing opportunities, rock-pool escapades, superb cliff top walks and ocean-side cafes and restaurants with sea vistas. The cathedral city of Truro is approximately 5 miles away with cobbled lanes lined with Theatre, cinema, boutiques and galleries plus bars, pub and eateries galore for refreshment. Manege Cottage makes a divine home-from-home perfect for exploring Cornwall's much favoured hot-spot locations.
Porthtowan is a small village resting on west Cornwalls beautiful coastline, renowned for its Blue Flag beach, which at low tide exposes almost a mile and a half of fine, golden sands. Fringed by impressive granite cliffs, the beach is a popular surfing venue and is lifeguarded during the summer, making it ideal for families. Porthtowan is part of the St Agnes designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and there are some wonderful walks to be found, offering vivid scenery along the South West Coast Path, whether you choose to head east to St Agnes or west to Portreath. The towns of St Ives and Penzance, with their art galleries, restaurants and quaint harbours, are half an hours drive away, whilst Flambards Theme Park, The Cornish Seal Sanctuary in Gweek, and the Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station are just a few of the other diverse attractions scattered around this picturesque region. A great base for a varied family break.

It is very clean and comfortable too and is excellently equipped. The cottage is in a perfect central location for easy access to many beautiful places in Cornwall and the views from the cottage are of the lovely Cornish garden and countryside beyond. We hope to return again very soon!

We would recommend this cottage to anyone. There is a lovely pub called the Chiverton Arms just a 15 minute walk away. Good food, good ale all reasonably priced. Customers and staff were very friendly and it was dog friendly which was a bonus. The cottage itself was perfect for us. Set in the country side and attached to the owners house. On arrival we found a lovely cream tea waiting for us in the fridge. The place was immaculately clean and Roger, the owner, supplied everything we could need. Facilities are excellent and we have stayed in a lot of cottages and know a gem when we find it. If we did not have our own policy of not visiting the same place twice (It's rarely better the second time round and can blight the first experience), we would visit again.Kitchen rolls, toilet rolls washing up liquid, cleaning materials, iron and board, tin foil, cling film, full spice wrack, coffee, it was all there. We visited the places we had on our list and spent the rest of the time relaxing playing card games and watching Netflix. If you do not have a Netflix account, Roger will let you use his. It was very peaceful and quiet, which was perfect for us. Thank you Roger for such a lovely holiday. all the best, Terry, Norma and Teddy the dog.
