About this property

Halvosso is one of four traditional quarrymans terraced cottages situated in the tiny hamlet of Halvosso. Peaceful and secluded, yet a mere mile to the main road to Falmouth. This cottage has timeless charm, is decorated in a modern country style and enjoys first floor views over the countryside towards Falmouth Bay.

Scenic, rural walks can be enjoyed from the front door or head out for a walk along the coast paths. The port of Falmouth is less than a 10 minute drive and as well as daily provisions, offers independent shops, restaurants, traditional inns, galleries and wonderful beaches.

Renovated to a high standard, by the owners that live across the lane, Halvosso offers a cleverly designed kitchen, a wonderful living room with enormous inglenook fireplace with welcoming wood burning stove and dining table. Stairs to the first floor lead to the family bathroom (bath and shower over) and two well presented bedrooms, a well appointed double and small, snug twin. A gorgeous well screened sun trap of a garden is to the rear of the property along with parking for one car. The really ancient town of Penryn, now home to the Combined University of Cornwall, is 10 minutes away and if interested in architecture, is worth a visit - there are many ope ways with pretty cottages to view and a dinky town museum. The hidden coves and fishing villages around the Lizard Peninsular will fascinate, and closer by, the stunning sub-tropical Trebah and Glendurgan gardens are a must. Halvosso is a great choice of holiday home at any time of year and would suit a small family or group of friends wanting a peaceful relaxing holiday.

Falmouth, with its magnificent natural harbour (the third largest in the world), winding streets and beaches, will keep you occupied for hours. The town's old harbourside pubs, excellent shopping, art gallery and stunning National Maritime Museum simply complete the picture. Pendennis Castle, built by Henry viii, is Falmouth's most popular attraction, sited on its own peninsula with superb panoramic sea views. Across from Falmouth harbour is the beautiful town of St Mawes, surrounded by the rocky coves, sandy beaches and lush green countryside of the Roseland Peninsula. Go there by car (15 miles) or take the passenger ferry from Falmouth (15 minutes).

    We loved all the beautiful pine wood inside and were absolutely over the moon to find a CD player, DVD player and board games - we made extensive use of all of these as we only play music through CDs and only ever watch DVDs! Everything in the cottage was perfect for us - so PLEASE DON'T CHANGE A THING!

  • Ian

    It was refreshing to find somewhere we wouldn’t hesitate to stay in again. Very clean. The property is very well equipped with everything you would need for your holiday. The owners have put a great deal of thought and effort into making everyone’s stay as comfortable as possible. They were extremely helpful. And friendly

    Lovely and secluded while being within a 10 minute drive of the nearby town. Hosts were lovely and really went above and beyond - being present while never imposing on our privacy. Would definitely recommend!
