Holiday cottage in Charlestown (2mls SW), Cornwall

Accommodation details

Set near peaceful farmland, close to Porthpean Beach (2.5 miles), this historic property with a garden is the place for guests who love heritage sites, country trails, and seafaring adventures. Sleeping four guests in comfort, there's the convenience of on-site parking, plus a shop, pub, and restaurant within a mile.

And you'll find an abundance of attractions nearby including Charlestown Harbour (2.5 miles) with its famous tall ships – just keep an eye out for Poldark, as it's a film location from the popular TV series. Step up to the entrance of this handsome living space where country-style decor harmonises beautifully with exposed stone and rustic timber beams.

Kick back on spacious seating with a favourite book, or enjoy films on the Smart TV in the living room – perfect after a hike in the surrounding Pentewan Valley. Family mealtimes are a breeze with the well-equipped kitchen, and you can pack light as the property has its own washer/dryer. Settle into the cosy bedrooms upstairs for a great night's sleep – both are en-suite and have TVs.

And make the most of sunny rays with a BBQ on the patio to dine al fresco under the Cornish stars. Head to the Victorian market town of St Austell (2 miles) where you can browse independent shops, take a brewery tour, and visit a china clay museum. Or venture south where you'll discover the colourful fishing village of Mevagissey (4.5 miles); the leafy Lost Gardens of Heligan (4.5 miles); and the sparkling Roseland Heritage Coast (4 miles) – part of the South Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Secret coves, curious creeks, and rugged shores with smugglers' tales await your adventures in Cornwall.
