About this property

Greenbank

Welcome to Greenbank, a traditional Cornish two-bedroom cottage nestled in the heart of St Dennis. This granite-built end terrace offers a perfect retreat for friends or a small family looking to explore the picturesque scenery of Cornwall.



Inside, you'll find a welcoming living/dining room featuring comfortable sofas, a woodburning stove, and traditional cottage beams. The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare delicious meals with ease, including an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, and dishwasher. Head outside to the enclosed rear and side garden, where you can enjoy dining on the patio, complete with furniture and a coal barbecue.



The cottage boasts two beautifully presented bedrooms: a king-size room with an en-suite toilet and a twin room overlooking the garden. A ground-floor bathroom, featuring a bath, shower, basin, and WC, completes the accommodation.



Greenbank offers off-road parking for a medium-sized car, Smart TV, and Wi-Fi. Bed linen and towels are included, along with a starter pack of logs for the woodburning stove. The cottage is pet-friendly, welcoming two well-behaved small or medium-sized dogs. Please note that the property is non-smoking and not suitable for children under twelve. Handrails are provided on the stairs for added safety, although the traditional cottage stairway may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility.



Greenbank is just a short walk from local amenities, including a shop, pub, café, and fish and chip shop, perfect for a night off from cooking. During the day, explore the nearby Goss Moor National Nature Reserve or take a scenic walk along the coastal trails. Nearby Newquay, with its zoo, gardens, aquarium, and beautiful beaches, is ideal for a fun-filled family day out. Other nearby attractions include the Eden Project, The Lost Gardens of Heligan, and Lappa Valley.

Greenbanks cottage...A lovely find...

It was a nice cottage. It was well furnished and homely. The kitchen is well stocked. The dishwasher and washing machine are great. We enjoyed our stay. It is close to many little places. The Chemist is superb. Clays Kitchen and the local Spar are all great. The commercial inn had live music and a great atmosphere. All in all it was a great place to stay.

Great value for money spacious home

Spacious, had everything we needed. Was great having a washing machine and washing line. The parking space was very stressful to get in. We found the house cold downstairs, I would have liked a blanket for the evening.
