Laloma

Description

Laloma is a picturesque thatched cottage enjoying river views from most of its rooms and lots of character with old stripped panelling, open beams, and a huge inglenook fireplace.

The entrance porch leads into the living room with TV and DVD player, fireplace with woodburner, French doors to the garden and a large pine dining table at one end. Steps lead up to the pine fitted kitchen with teak worktops, including dishwasher and microwave, and a lovely river view from the sink while you wash-up.

A panelled wall in the dining area conceals the stairs up to a large double bedroom with low window under the eaves looking out to sea, smaller double room, and a twin room with river views, with the bathroom with bath and over-head shower on the half landing.

Outside, there is a raised lawn as well as a front lawn area with garden furniture, both overlooking the river. The front path is shared with Garden Cottage, which is just beyond Laloma.

Local Area

Helford is an idyllic little village set on the Helford River, just south of Falmouth. The area is blessed with stunning scenery – beautiful countryside, glorious walks following the meandering river and a plethora of quiet little coves and bays along the coast.

The whole region is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with a number of picturesque villages and hamlets dotted throughout the landscape. Whether you stay in Helford village, Maenporth, Gweek, Coverack, Manaccan, Flushing or Porthallow, each has its own charm and character, with thatched and white-washed cottages a real feature. Why not explore all of them, sampling the quintessentially English village pubs along the way!

Helford is situated on the east coast of the Lizard Peninsula, with Lizard Point a must-see attraction. Other great days out in the area include the Seal Sanctuary, the sub-tropical paradise of Trebah Gardens and firm family favourite, Flambards. The nearby towns of Porthleven and Helston offer restaurants, supermarkets and pubs and, of course, the harbour town of Falmouth is just up the coast, providing for all your shopping needs, excursions and more.
