Cottage to rent with a log fire / woodburner in Mevagissey (5mls N)

Accommodation details

Relax in your own private wing of this countryside house, which lies in the heart of Cornwall. Just 5 miles north, the fishing village of Mevagissey waits to be explored, and many other treasures are within easy reach too, making it the ideal spot for a family break in the rolling hills of the South West.

Whether you're here to explore or unwind, there's something for everyone. You'll find the cottage tastefully and classically decorated, with many traditional countryside features to make it an undeniably Cornish bolthole. Central in the open-plan living space is a wood burner, making it a homely place to unwind, while the large windows and French doors mean natural light streams in on bright summer days. Water sport enthusiasts will take delight in the knowledge that Newquay - Cornwall's surfing haven - is just shy of 13 miles to the north.

Closer to home you'll find St. Austell (just 6 miles), where you'll have access to sandy beaches, charming restaurants, and the world-famous Eden Project. But for a truly Cornish experience, head further afield and explore the beguiling Roseland (17 miles) and Lizard (38 miles) peninsulas, perhaps hiring a kayak before enjoying a bag of chips or even a picnic, in the salty sea air.
