Positioned in the sleepy hamlet of Penponds in West Cornwall, this cottage is a peaceful countryside escape ideally located for exploring the coast and countryside. Just a 10-minute drive takes you to Gwithian, with its vast sandy beach and beautiful rolling dunes, perfect for long walks and sea air. Within 7 miles, enjoy Hayle’s golden sands (voted best UK beach by The Times in 2024!), Godrevy’s iconic lighthouse and seal haul-out, or surf and stroll at Portreath. Venture up to 12 miles to discover Praa Sands, Marazion, St Michael’s Mount, and Porthleven’s galleries and eateries. For something a little different, visit the Seal Sanctuary at Gweek or Guy’s Butterfly House near Penzance. Surrounded by rolling fields and close to the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site, this cottage is perfect for walkers, cyclists, and beach lovers alike. It’s an ideal base for couples, families, or solo travellers looking to experience the best of West Cornwall away from the crowds.
Step into the welcoming hallway and relax in the cosy lounge, featuring a wood burner, comfortable sofas, and elegant furnishings – perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. The spacious kitchen/diner is fully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay, with an adjoining utility cloakroom and WC for added convenience. Upstairs, the beautifully appointed king-size bedroom offers stunning countryside views, while the twin bedroom overlooks the charming garden. The stylish bathroom completes the property, featuring a luxurious free-standing roll-top bath, rainfall shower with handheld attachment, and WC. Thoughtfully designed and full of character, this cottage provides a warm and comfortable retreat for your Cornish holiday.
Outside, the beautiful garden comes to life in the sunshine, filled with mature shrubs and colourful borders. A winding path leads across the lawn to a raised decked area at the top of the garden, complete with outdoor seating – perfect for al fresco dining with the gas BBQ sizzling away. It’s an ideal space to relax, entertain, and enjoy peaceful surroundings, all while children and four-legged friends play safely in the enclosed garden. Whether visiting in the winter and enjoying the cosy glow of the log burner, or basking in the sun-drenched, flower-filled garden in the summer, this cottage offers a truly special Cornish escape all year round.
