Property code: OC-P00844

Hunker down in a traditional cottage with characterful features, a warming wood burner and a sheltered courtyard. The property is surrounded by nature and countryside in a small rural village in Cornwall which is ideal for a quiet getaway with plenty of dog-walking routes from your doorstep. It also sits just 5.5 miles from the nearest beach and 3 miles from the charming village of St Mawgan.

Step inside and find yourself in the cosy living area with a wooden beamed ceiling, an exposed stone fireplace, a wood burner, and two comfortable sofas. The country-style kitchen/diner is neutral-toned with contemporary lighting and a dining table and chairs. Upstairs are the two beautiful bedrooms – a king-size and a twin room. You’ll also find a bathroom with a wonderful free-standing bath and a separate shower. Outside is an intimate courtyard with shrubs, garden furniture and a shed with a tumble dryer inside.

The village of Talskiddy is in the north east of Cornwall, just 5.5 miles from the coast. St Columb Major (1.5 miles) and St Mawgan (3 miles) both offer a handful of pet-friendly restaurants and cafes. The Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty isn’t far away either, National Trust Carnewas at Bedruthan sits on the edge of it and is 7 miles away – where you’ll discover an impressive viewpoint over the sea stacks and beach. The coastal path continues for around 24 miles to Padstow (9 miles). Along here, there are numerous hidden coves and nature reserves.

Lovely little cottage. A real home from home with everything you need whilst self catering. Kitchen was fully equipped. Smart TV. Good Wi-Fi. Lovely strong shower. Comfy bedrooms. The cows from the field opposite are your early morning alarm call! Nothing to criticise. We will definitely be booking again.

Well equipped cosy cottage. Clean and tidy but horrid damp musty smell which was particularly strong downstairs. Even so, we had a very enjoyable week.

If you want remoteness, this is ideal as it is situated in a hamlet with only other cottages there. The cottage itself had great amenities which was very welcome.

Lovely cottage despite the smoke alarm issue. Would have been nice to have salt/pepper and a few logs for the fire. Also the twin beds were very narrow. Cottage was tastefully decorated and a great location to explore the local area. We would recommend and will consider returning again.
