For the ultimate Cornish holiday, seek out this huge cottage in the charming historic village of Pentewan. It’s got everything you could need: spacious private grounds, beautiful panoramic views with all day sun, lovely interior and plenty of fun days out for your party to enjoy.

The ground floor of this property is devoted to living spaces. When you arrive, prepare a cup of tea and relax, taking time to admire the views across Pentewan valley. Edgehill has a super spacious kitchen and walk-in larder, to enjoy cooking some of your favourite recipes. If the evening is crisp, warm yourself with a cosy fire in the lounge and take in the view over the garden and down to the coast. Back in the kitchen you’ll find a dining area with wide windows, designed for shared meals. As the night draws in, head upstairs to the bedrooms on the first and second floor. There are four bedrooms all together. There are two rooms with super-kings that can be arranged to 3ft singles, one room with 3ft twins that can be arranged as a super-king and one single. One of these king/twins is in the converted loft with a vaulted ceiling along with a ensuite. All of the bedrooms are comfortable, light and airy. In the garden you’ll discover plenty of little sunspots and shaded areas with table and chairs, plus a brick BBQ for summer evenings. Also, an undercover outdoor dining area which is a real bonus, This has a brick fired oven if you fancied a pizza evening. There’s also a patio area overlooking the grounds, perfect for drinks, reading or socialising, not to forget watching the wildlife and sunsets!

The village of Pentewan is a lovely place for holidaymakers. You’ll be 0.5 miles from the centre, where you’ll find places to get delicious grub and try out water sports. Pentewan Beach is just under 0.5 miles, with a long sandy strip to feel beneath your feet. Picturesque harbour villages of  Mevagissey and Charlestown are a short drive, with good restaurants and pubs. For days out, try The Lost Gardens of Heligan, 200-acre grounds with incredible plant life and animal life. You may even be able to see beavers!

A lovely spacious property a little difficult for anyone with limited mobility as the access stairs and slope to rear may be a challenge for those with walking disabilities. But would recommend as location is great for surrounding sight seeing

Lovely big house and light inside. Plenty of places to sit in the garden in the sun or shade. The steps from the terrace up to the house are very steep and would be a challenge for elderly people. Only a hundred yards along the terrace to the coastal walk. Nice woodland walk close by. Dog proof, only if it is a small dog.

The cottage is stunning as well as its well maintained garden and outdoor areas. It's extremely well equipped for a family. Two downstairs toilets and bathrooms on every floor made for a clean tribe. We BBQ'd and used the pizza oven, this was our first time and whilst not easy great instructions were left to use the Pizza Oven effectively. PentewanRead more itself is a great base and we explored the nearby wonders by foot and car. We made contact with the owner for help with a minor issue which they responded and resolved immediately. Would recommend for a family break with pets. Hide

A lovely house with spectacular views. Comfortable and spacious with lots of great touches. We had 4 adults and 2 young children and plenty of space. Beware steep access to both parking areas. Top of the house is a short steep incline. To the lower parking area there are 67 steep steps without a railing - this was tricky to navigate with a buggy anRead mored child in arms. Local roads are steep and narrow with passing places. Hide

We loved our stay here, it was very homely and in a great location. Perfect for our family holiday in Cornwall. The stairs kept us fit which helped with all the food we ate in the local pubs! Would definitely go back. We loved everything about it.

We loved our time at Edgehill - the views are stunning and house very well equipped. The outdoor pizza oven and BBQ were particularly well used! Everyone was also a little fitter after climbing the steps everyday! The owner has thought of everything that might be needed. Definitely recommend

The views from the house are lovely as are the gardens. The house is well supplied with cooking utensils and crockery and very comfortable. Part of the bannister rail is not fully accessible for part of the stairway and really needs a handrail on both sides.

Had a relaxing stay, great garden for sunbathing and dining when weather is favourable! All facilities within short walk and access to the SW coastal path .one to watch is the restriction for Dogs on the beach from March to November, however lots of trails to explore with four legged friends.

Lovely views, good location for visiting central Cornwall. A nice walk up the Pentewan valley to the Polgooth Inn for a really top class menu & friendly atmosphere. The Ship Inn in the village is also worth a visit. Mevagissey needs no introduction!
