  • One of three detached character cottages with stunning countryside views
  • Rural countryside location, perfect for exploring both the North & South coast of Cornwall
  • Close to lots of popular attractions such as The Eden Project & Lost Gardens of Heligan
  • Children over 8 years old only
Property code: OC-41820

Both rural yet close to some of Cornwall's best-loved attractions, this property is ideally located for almost any kind of West Country escape. The cottage lies in a hamlet within the county's southern countryside alongside two other holiday homes, with far-reaching views providing peace and tranquillity. But just 8 miles away lies the popular harbour town of Fowey and all it has to offer.

Like Cornwall itself, the cottage interior is warm and inviting, with traditional furnishings fused with contemporary features, just like its setting. The rooms are spacious, with ample room for a family of four to enjoy, while through the patio doors lies a whole breadth of land waiting to be explored. Even from the ground floor bedrooms, the views help bring the countryside in, so there's no forgetting exactly where you are during your stay.

Swim, sunbathe, and explore the rockpools in Fowey, some of which have swimming platforms and tidal paddling pools perfect for kids young and old. And no family visit to Cornwall is complete without a visit to the Eden Project, which is just 7 miles door to door, or Newquay Zoo, a little over 17 miles away. The question is, where will you explore first?

  • 2 bedrooms: 1 king and 1 twin with 2'6" beds (may be made up as a king on request)
  • Bathroom with bath, separate shower and WC, additional en-suite shower and WC to main bedroom
  • Kitchen - Electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher
  • Please note there are 3 steps from the living space to the bedrooms

Lovely cottage, well equipped and comfortable. Everything you needed in the kitchen. Unfortunately, we had bad weather on our visit so couldn't take advantage of sitting outside with the lovely views. Lovely place to stay for peace and quiet.

Best well equipped, clean cottage we have stayed in. Owners very friendly and helpful and within seconds came round to fix a minor problem with the lock on the door. Very rarely have I rated a holiday home this high and this was certainly the best. Such a quiet peaceful location with lovely views.

Fantastic stay at Legacy cottage. Everything you could ask for in a home away from home. The private garden was a particular highlight for us giving space for my son to stretch his legs. Lovely quiet cottage within a few minutes of the main road with easy access to the whole of Cornwall. We will certainly return to explore further.

Just returned from a lovely 4 nights at the Legacy Cottage and we wish we could have stayed longer. It is a real home from home, there is everything that you require for a lovely holiday. We were there when storm Darragh hit, so we could not get out as much as we would have, but the cottage was so lovely and cosy with the wood burner on and we madeRead more use of the books and games and the lovely open views out of the French doors. We would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone. Hide
