3 The Old Cornstore

About this property

3 The Old Cornstore is a charming property, less than a mile from the nearest beach, set over three floors, nestled in St Agnes, in Cornwall, on the border of St. Agnes Heritage Coast. The cottage boasts a Smart TV, close to amenities and to The Roseland Heritage Coast. Once the car is parked, make your way to your holiday home. Take in the fresh coastal air as you approach the charming stone exterior, and enter through the blue front door. Store your gear in the courtyard dining room, then head to the kitchen and pop treats for the week in the fridge/freezer.

The kitchen is pleasing and contemporary with warm hues and wooden countertops, fire up the hob and oven, then let the chef of the group bring the kitchen to life. Once delicious aromas fill the air, head back to the dining room and take a seat at the bench seating and let the coastal touches remind you to plan the adventures ahead. Once plates are cleared, head to the tastefully decorated sitting room with a large white and blue striped corner sofa, nautical touches and a rustic exposed brick wall. Flick on the Smart TV and catch up with your favourite shows with ease.

Ascend the carpeted stairs to the first-floor home to a tiled shower room to freshen up. The first floor also has a homely double bedroom with ample storage to make you feel at home. Ascend the stairs to the second floor to find the final bedroom, a bright twin in eaves, flooded with natural light courtesy of the Velux windows. To save your legs from the steps, there is a bathroom tucked away in the eaves of the second floor, which has a bath to soak your muscles after days spent at the beach. Take a stroll to the nearest beach, Trevaunance Cove, feel the sand between your feet as you tuck into an ice cream, with lots of rock pools for crabbing, and nearby pubs to ensure you are refuelled.

Pack your hiking boots or wetsuit to explore St. Agnes Heritage Coast further, offering stunning coastline and cliff views, bring your bodyboard and ride the waves, or spot nature along the coastal paths. Families with young children will enjoy a visit to Lappa Valley, hop aboard the steam train, witness the wildlife-rich landscape that was once a mining area, get a hole in one at mini golf, or hire a pedalo and cruise around the boating lake. Roam through the 6th-century Manor House, Trerice, admire the period furnishing, wander through the formal gardens, then enjoy some cream tea in the tea room.

3 The Old Cornstore, a delightful base for exploring the beauty of Cornwall.

St Agnes is a thriving picturesque village on the Cornish coast, with four beaches on the doorstep and surrounded by wonderful countryside.

St Agnes also has a rich mining heritage which can be explored with a visit to the St Agnes Museum.

St Agnes is also in the heart of Poldark Country, the landscapes made famous by the novels and TV series’, the most recent of which was broadcast in Spring 2018.
