This striking timber-clad, one-bedroom apartment just three miles from the maritime port of Falmouth is perfect for a couple looking for a romantic Cornish getaway surrounded by lush countryside. Enjoy the mile-long walk through the country lanes to the village of Ponsanooth or visit Kennall Vale Nature Reserve (1.5 miles), where you can follow the trail through the densely wooded valley by the river.

The lounge has a comfortable sofa to snuggle on while you watch your favourite movie on the Smart TV. There is also a cosy reading chair for some quiet time. The galley kitchen has everything you need to cook romantic meals from fresh local ingredients and enjoy them at the dining table under a window.

The property is set in a quiet and beautiful location with fabulous views.The lodge has been furnished and decorated to a very high standard.immaculately clean and had everything required for your holiday, including a bbq and area which we found very useful. Mark and Jo were the perfect hosts (and their 3 lovely dogs)and always on hand if you neeRead moreded anything. Their local knowledge was invaluable and we went to many places on their advise. Falmouth is an ideal base to visit all the coastlines around Cornwall. This property was up there as one of the best we have stayed in. Hide

Fantastic location, peaceful and stunning views. Accommodation finished to very high standard. Mark and Jo made us very welcome and had a great knowledge of the surrounding area. Cornwall is one of the most stunning places youll ever visit.

We love our stay at Bellas Place, recently undergone a revamp and its an amazing addition to the place. You now have floor to ceiling windows overlooking the valley views which if you want peace and tranquility is perfect and the dog loves watching out the window to pass the time. The lounge area is a welcome addition as you have so much more spaceRead more and a table to eat at with a door now on the bedroom which makes it feel a lot more private. Its our 3rd time and we really enjoy this place and never want to come home as we never tire of the views and Mark is very helpful and welcoming. He has recently put in a driveway on Bellas side so you now have your own private driveway to the place which is very handy with gates to lock behind you. We cant wait to come back again. Hide

A clean cosy peaceful and well appointed place to stay with an extremely comfortable bed. Bella's place is very close to Penryn campus for anyone visiting the uni, and we found it a perfect base for exploring the lizard.

Bella's Place was excellent, especially for my Labrador who loved the fields and river on the owners property. The owners were perfect hosts, welcoming but not intruding, basically on hand of you needed them but gave you your space. I recommend Bella's Place to anyone who loves beautiful views and walking their dog off lead. Thanks for a great holiRead moreday. Hide

Just got back from our stay at Bella's place and we are sad to be back home. We booked this place last minute as we decided to take the dog with us so needed dog friendly and it was perfect. The location was just right as you are only an hour or so away from most of Cornwall, having the grounds to walk the dog massively helped and relaxed us. The pRead morelace was just as described on the website which we was very happy with. The Owners were very helpful and welcoming during our stay. It really was a home from home and we really enjoyed our time. We will be booking again for next year. Hide
