Rollies Retreat

About this property

Polruan 2.3 miles. Rollies Retreat is an inviting ground-floor apartment resting in Whitecross, Llaneglos, Cornwall, enjoying off-road parking for two cars, a private garden, and a setting within easy reach of the coast. Well-suited to couples or small groups, this thoughtfully arranged base offers a straightforward and well-placed retreat for exploring the surrounding countryside and coastline. At the heart of the apartment is an open-plan living space, where the kitchen, dining, and sitting areas come together in one sociable setting. This shared space lends itself to both relaxed mornings and quiet evenings, with natural light filtering through to create a bright and welcoming atmosphere.

The kitchen is equipped for preparing simple meals, while the dining area provides a spot to gather and plan the day ahead. The sitting area offers a place to unwind, whether catching up on a programme or simply enjoying time indoors. Two double bedrooms provide flexible sleeping arrangements for couples or friends travelling together, while a modern walk-in shower room completes the layout with a practical finish. Outside, the private garden combines lawn and patio, offering space for outdoor dining or a drink in the fresh air, with the surrounding setting adding to the sense of escape. A shop can be found within a short drive, along with a welcoming local pub, including the popular Dixy Cow, a little further afield.

When it comes to exploring, head to nearby Lansallos Beach, managed by the National Trust, where a short walk from the car park leads to an unspoilt stretch of coastline. Atlantic Bay is also within reach, accessed via a cliff path and offering dramatic sea views. Venture to Polperro, with its narrow streets and harbour setting, or visit Looe for a traditional seaside day out with beaches and coastal walks. For something further afield, the Eden Project provides a memorable day out with its striking biomes and landscaped gardens. Rollies Retreat offers a well-located base for discovering this part of Cornwall.

Fowey is a small town and civil parish that lies at the mouth of the River Fowey in south Cornwall. The estuary of the River Fowey forms a natural harbour, which enabled the town to become an important trading centre. There is a wealth of things to see and do in and around the harbour. Whether you enjoy getting out on the water, playing golf or finding out more about the history of the area, you are sure to find something to suit the whole family. Harbour cruises leave the Town Quay regularly in season, giving you a superb view of the town, but for the more adventurous, rent your own self-drive boat, kayak or paddle board and explore the waters for yourselves! The town is steeped in history, so why not join a guided tour of either Fowey or Polruan? You can even join an owl experience, play golf, go horse riding or pursue your artistic talents with pottery or painting courses. There is the aquarium, museum and St Catherine's Castle, as well as Readymoney Cove, all waiting to be explored. If you get peckish or fancy something thirst-quenching along the way, there is a plethora of pubs, inns, cafes and restaurants to choose from. Whenever you plan to visit, keep a lookout for the festivals, fairs, markets and theatre performances throughout the year. There are many family attractions in the area, including Mevagissey and Charlestown harbours, the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Discover them all from this fantastic base!
