From this rural gem, you're just a short drive from Cornwall's top attractions and the delightful South Cornish coast. One of two charmingly converted cottage-style properties set in private grounds of four acres, it's the perfect hideaway for a couple in search of a tranquil and romantic base from which to explore. Take time for sundowners and al fresco dining on your private patio, or a leisurely meander through the extensive gardens.

This traditional stone-built cottage has a generous sized and comfortable living room, where the wide doorway to your secluded patio draws the garden inwards. The style's bright and airy throughout with charmingly lumpy hand-sculpted walls, natural woodwork, cheerful colour accents and carefully exposed stonework. The compact modern kitchen has cool green garden views. Upstairs the cosy double bedroom has windows on three sides bathing the room in soft light.

The Eden Project, Heligan Gardens, Mevagissey fishing harbour and Charlestown's sailing heritage are within 8 miles. At Pentewan 5 miles away, rent bikes, kayaks and paddleboards. Go sea angling from Mevagissey - you might catch a meal to remember. Walk the renowned South West Coast Path, or stroll a mile to the local pub or shop. Truro, St Austell and Fowey, all within 13 miles, have varied shopping and dining. Join in the Cornish food revolution – pick from the best local produce and seafood. For a day trip, Cornwall's north coast beckons – 15 miles away is Newquay's hip surf scene, 5 miles further are Padstow's famous restaurants.
