Photos and Description of this Penzance holiday cottage Character home, just 3 miles from spectacular north and south coasts.

Self-catering holiday rental in a very quiet, private location, just a short drive from the beaches and cliffs of the west Cornwall peninsula. The property comprises 3 adjacent buildings (rented as a single unit): two 18th century Cornish cottages and a new log cabin, providing very flexible accommodation for up to 12 people (DISCOUNTS FOR SMALLER GROUPS - PLEASE ENQUIRE). It has a fully equipped kitchen and vast, sunny lounge. The huge 2.5 acre garden, overlooked by no one and nestled among surrounding moorland, has a pond and teems with wildlife. It is within a 10-15 min drive from the shops, restaurants and galleries of Penzance and St Ives, the romantic villages and pubs of Zennor and Mousehole, and the famous fish market of Newlyn. Some of the best surfing beaches in England (Sennen, St Ives, Godrevy) are just 15-20 min away. Iron Age and Bronze Age sites (stone circles, quoits, roundhouses etc) abound and you can explore many on foot from the house.

Brilliant holiday for all the family.

Ammy London
Review Submitted: December 6, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
This property suited all the family. Teenagers disappeared into the log cabin when they had finished playing cricket on the lawn. Younger children discovered countryside immediately around the house, picking blackberries and getting muddy. Book loving dad kept offering to shop in Penzance. Fantastic beaches within easy reach. Large, light living room was perfect for lounging in when weather was bad.
