This lovely St. Austell cottage is homely and comfortable, and makes a great base for a group looking to explore south Cornwall.

The fitted kitchen, conservatory with dining area and sitting room all combine to make a fantastic Cornish holiday home, with living accommodation suited to spending time together.
The small enclosed rear garden at this St. Austell cottage is a superb sun trap, so you can sit out with the morning paper and a cup of coffee, before heading out for a day exploring this diverse area, and with the Eden Project just five minutes away, what better place to start? The Luxulyan Valley and Charlestown, part of the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site, are rich in history and offer wonderful walking amidst beautiful scenery, while parts of The Clay Trails are accessible from this St. Austell cottage too. The Lost Gardens of Heligan, Lanhydrock house and gardens and Pinetum Park are all well worth a visit, and of course, the dramatic coastline and plentiful beaches are another good reason to stay in this terrific St.
Austell cottage.
St. Austell, a market town close to Cornwall's south coast, has an impressive history in china clay mining, and today remains popular with visitors due to its beaches and gardens, and proximity to pretty fishing villages or world-famous attractions. Wander round the Lost Gardens of Heligan or the biomes of the Eden Project, or spend a lazy day on the sand at Carlyon Bay or in the safe waters of Polkerris.

The cleanliness of the property was far below what we expected. There were pet hairs everywhere â on the floors, furniture, and even on the beds. It was very clear that the linens hadnât been changed after a previous guest stayed there with pets. This was especially disappointing given that many reviews describe the place as spotless, but our experience was completely different. We also had an issue with the heating. On our first night, the heating was turned off and we ended up sleeping in what felt like a cold chamber. When we asked the owner not to turn the heating off during the night, he reacted by calling us temperamental and seemed quite annoyed. Because of that interaction, we didnât feel comfortable mentioning the cleanliness issues to him directly, even though he stayed nearby. Itâs a shame, because the property itself is a lovely little place in a great location. With improved cleaning standards and a more considerate approach to guest comfort, it could be a much more enjoyable stay

It was well appointed with everything you need to have a fantastic stay. Robert (the owner) was very friendly and helpful, he left a fantastic welcome pack and even baked a range of fresh scones for a midweek cream tea, which was very much appreciated. We were joined on our stay by some relatives who commented that they had had the best nights sleep for a long while. The property was spotless with lovely comfortable beds and crisp bedding. We all really enjoyed our stay and would definately recommend the property and love to return in the future.
