About this property
St. Austell 5 miles. A welcoming Cornish cottage, attached to the owners' home, in the quiet village of Rescorla, 5 miles from the market town of St. Austell. This lovely St. Austell cottage is homely and comfortable, and makes a great base for a group looking to explore south Cornwall. With a bedroom and shower room on the ground floor, and en-suite bedrooms on the first floor, this St. Austell cottage is great for a variety of parties, and provides families or couples travelling together their own space to escape to for some peace and quiet. The fitted kitchen, conservatory with dining area and sitting room all combine to make a fantastic Cornish holiday home, with living accommodation suited to spending time together. The small enclosed rear garden at this St. Austell cottage is a superb sun trap, so you can sit out with the morning paper and a cup of coffee, before heading out for a day exploring this diverse area, and with the Eden Project just five minutes away, what better place to start? The Luxulyan Valley and Charlestown, part of the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site, are rich in history and offer wonderful walking amidst beautiful scenery, while parts of The Clay Trails are accessible from this St. Austell cottage too. The Lost Gardens of Heligan, Lanhydrock house and gardens and Pinetum Park are all well worth a visit, and of course, the dramatic coastline and plentiful beaches are another good reason to stay in this terrific St. Austell cottage.
St. Austell, a market town close to Cornwall's south coast, has an impressive history in china clay mining, and today remains popular with visitors due to its beaches and gardens, and proximity to pretty fishing villages or world-famous attractions. Wander round the Lost Gardens of Heligan or the biomes of the Eden Project, or spend a lazy day on the sand at Carlyon Bay or in the safe waters of Polkerris. Fowey, Mevagissey, Caerhays Castle and the St. Austell Brewery are just a few of the delights that await visitors to St. Austell.

The Cottage itself was well maintained and spotless. The whole property had a lovely feel to it and without hesitation my wife and I would book again.

The cottage and facilities were excellent, and Robert the proprietor was very responsive when needed. The welcome package on the first evening was unusually generous. We would highly recommend this property.

Robert was very friendly and made us feel at home. He bought lots of scones, jam and clotted cream when he heard it was one of our parties birthday and bowl of sweets for the children plus a tub full of hos own grown tomatos. I would recommend it highly . Rose
