Tucked away in a rural hamlet, but only 2 miles from the picturesque Praa Sands, this detached cottage is in the perfect spot for families to enjoy a mix of country escape and coastal fun. This impressive property, beautifully renovated in 2024, blends tradition with modern comfort to ensure you feel at home from the moment you walk through its door. There is so much to see and do on the doorstep. The nearby village of Goldsithney (2 miles) offers a traditional country pub and village shop for essentials. The popular coastal town of Marazion (3.5 miles) is home to the National Trust's famous St Michael’s Mount and an array of boutique shops and pubs. There are quaint fishing villages close by including pretty Porthleven (7 miles) with its harbour and variety of eateries, as well as the very popular and beautiful St Ives (10 miles). Alternatively, drive along the rugged coastline or wander the coastal path to the beautiful coves of Mullion and Poldhu.

On arriving at the property, step inside from the driveway entrance, hang up your coats, and kick off your boots. Walk through into the open-plan kitchen/diner with exposed beams and flagstone floors – it’s the perfect place to gather. The kitchen area is equipped with everything you will need for your holiday, whether it's preparing a picnic or enjoying a special meal around the dining table. Off the kitchen is also a useful utility and WC. From here, you will find the cosy lounge with exposed stonework and feature fireplace, relax on one of two comfy sofas, and listen to the crackle of the wood burner after a day of exploring whilst reading a good book or watching your favourite show on the Smart TV. Making your way up the spiral staircase from the dining area, the character continues with original beams and vaulted ceilings. Here, you will find three well-appointed bedrooms including a king-size, a double and a twin room, all with calming and stylish interiors ensuring a restful night’s sleep. Finally, a modern and contemporary family shower room with WC completes the first floor, offering both functionality and elegance.

Outside, a tranquil oasis awaits. Open the stable door and step outside with your morning coffee whilst listening to the birdsong. Later in the day, enjoy a BBQ on the terrace that’s perfect for al fresco dining, whilst the children play in the private enclosed garden, with mature shrub borders completing the picture of idyllic relaxation and enjoyment.

West Cottage is a lovely, well equipped holiday stay with a good balance of rustic charm and modern renovation. We stayed at the cottage for an extended break of 10 weeks during summer of 2024. The cottage was very clean, and beautifully presented on arrival. The place has been recently refurbished and was well finished throughout. The rooms are dRead moreecorated and styled to make it feel like a home which makes it feel comfortable and authentic. There was an abundance of equipment for cooking and serving food including nonbreakable crockery and glasses for use outside or for children. Good AEG washing machine, dishwasher, under bench fridge and freezer were all welcomed for our extended stay. The location is very good base from which to explore west Cornwalls countryside and coastline. Parking for two cars was perfect for our needs and would cater for groups with more than one car staying at the property. Its very quiet and idyllic with an excellent garden which is well maintained. Great for a bit of cricket and racing around with the kids. Also bbq and fire pit which we used for toasting marshmallows. Never quite made a bbq! Any questions or queries we had were quickly answered/addressed by the managers/owners. Property has BT fibre connection and good connectivity for streaming or working. We needed to work while away and conducted video conference / business meetings with ease. Its a great place. We would recommend it to others and big enough for 6 adults or families and friends etc. Hide
