Set in a quiet countryside location next door to the owner’s home, this stunning property promises a relaxing escape to guests. Spacious and inviting, this wonderful single-level home is an opportunity to unwind among beautiful surroundings both inside and out. Spend mornings running around with your four-legged friend in the shared field or snuggle up on the sofa in front of the wood burner.

Whether you’re off to one of the pubs in Penryn (1.5 miles) or you’re having a lie-in in one of the bright and airy bedrooms, it won’t take you long to settle in here. The open-plan living area has a wonderful farmhouse style, with exposed rich wood beams in the vaulted ceilings and pretty cupboard doors in the kitchen. Outside, the patio is the perfect spot for an al fresco dinner grilled up on the BBQ and the garden is completely enclosed, meaning there’s no need to worry about little ones or the canine family members.

Head down to Falmouth (3.5 miles) and wander around the harbour before finding a cosy pub or restaurant to rest in. Pendennis Castle (5 miles) and the National Maritime Museum (4 miles) are close by, while Gyllyngvase Beach (3.5 miles) has a magnificent wide arc of golden sand and blue seas. Further afield, Flambards Theme Park (11 miles) is a hit with children, as is Trebah Garden (7 miles) with lush canopies bursting with exotic blooms and tunnels of plant life.

Chestnut Cottage was beautiful, a quaint little piece of paradise. Loved that when we arrived the owners had written a card and left us homemade bread and scones - delicious. The fire was a real treat and we had been left logs etc which we used on the first night. More logs could be purchased from the owners who live on site.

We had a lovely time at Chestnut cottage over the New Year. Enjoyed the wood burner and the cottage is very well equipped. Within easy reach of Falmouth town Centre and surrounding areas. Would possibly consider returning on a future visit to Cornwall also met Emma the owner who was a very pleasant lady and very helpful.

The central heating thermostat needs to be moved. It is currently by the wood burner so when the fire is on other rooms are not heated. This meant the twin room and bathroom were chilly and contributed to the mould traces. Response from Holidaycottages.co.uk - thank you for your review. There are instructions with the property on how best to use thRead moree thermostat, which does help regulate the heating more efficiently in all areas of the cottage. The cleanliness issue mentioned to the owners has now been addressed with the cleaning company. Hide

The cottage is cosy and comfortable with all major equipment you need as well as a log fire for chilly evenings. Lovely quiet setting but within a short distance to Falmouth and surrounding areas. The welcome basket of fresh bread, cream tea and milk was totally unexpected but thoroughly enjoyed. No hesitation to return

We had a lovely welcome with scones and bread left for us, and a pint of milk which was very helpful. Lovely cottage, quiet location, 10-15 min drive into Falmouth.

A great cottage for exploring Cornwall. Very spacious, good location and peaceful. The beds were very comfy. The garden was spot on for enjoying the sunshine. Everything is a short drive away but most places in south and west Cornwall are less than 30mins away. Plenty of supermarkets nearby and lovely local restaurants and cafes. In particular the Read morebagel/pizza van near Gylly Beach was sublime. The dog loved it but most beaches are only accessible early morning or evening in the summer. Hide
