Description
This cosy little cottage for two is found in the Cornish village of Gweek which sits at the head of the Helford River, about 3.5 miles from the market town of Helston. An ideal spot from which to explore the glorious Lizard Peninsula with its many quaint fishing villages clustered around picturesque harbours and creeks. It is a stunningly beautiful area at any time of the year and as a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there is so much to discover here.
Old Mill Cottage is stylishly finished and situated close to the centre of the village with a good pub 5 minutes walk away. The Cornish Seal Sanctuary is close by and if you fancy some fun why not try out Cornwall Segway at Goonhilly Satellite Station. Trebah Gardens near Falmouth is well worth a visit and be sure to take a trip to Kynance Cove to marvel at the glorious views from the cliff-tops on the walk down.

Map
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.
