About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Beautiful granite cottage with parking and garden. Near the coast. Dogs welcome.

End of terrace cottage with many exposed granite walls and wooden beams. Sunroom at the front. 2 double bedrooms and 1 bedroom with bunk beds. Bathroom with toilet, bath and shower. Second toilet. Open plan downstairs with lounge/diner and kitchen. The dining table comfortably seats 6. There is a piano which you are welcome to play. Central heating and log burner. Fully enclosed garden with lawn, patio and decking area. There is off road parking for several cars.

Ashton is a small village between Helston and Penzance. It is 1 mile from the coast, but you can see the sea (just!) from the master bedroom. Praa Sands is just 2 miles away as is the beautiful harbour village of Porthleven, which has several good pubs and restaurants including Rick Stein's. St Michael's Mount is 10 minutes away. Land's End, St Ives and the stunning Lizard Peninsula are all within half an hour's drive, and further afield is the Eden Project. There are many National Trust properties nearby, and we are in the heart of Poldark country. The cottage is set back from the main road, and is therefore quiet and free from traffic noise. The Lion and Lamb pub is about 150yards away. We are 150 yards from the main bus route between Penzance and Falmouth.

The cottage is our home, and has been for nearly 20 years. We work away from home for 8 months of the year, and so would rather the cottage was used and enjoyed, rather than standing empty.

There is a high chair and travel cot which can be made available for you to use at your own risk. There is also a washing machine and tumble drier for your convenience.

Amazing stay
Great property, ticked all the boxes. Communication was great, comfy beds and very clean. The dog loved the large garden. The kitchen was well stocked and lots of cupboard space. Used the bus to travel locally. Will be back.

Fantastic Cottage & Location
The Cottage and garden were perfect very traditional and full of character. Beds were very comfy the shower was great and easy to use. The main bathroom was very swish -loved all the glitter touches. The piano had an amazing sound. Leather sofa/chairs in Lounge were so comfortable to sit in. We also sat in the front porch some of the time. There was a huge airer in there which if we had needed it would of been very helpful. Thankfully we had excellent weather. The location is perfect for so many attractions/beaches. The Lizard, Praa Sands, Marazion, Perranporth Beach and harbour, Helston, Perran Sands at low tide to name a few. We felt like we were coming home each time we returned to Thurcroft Cottage. We found an excellent walk from the cottage. Up the lane turn right and right into the Ashton Amenities Field (great for dogs). In the far left corner there is a lane that takes you to the Garden centre and Kitchen Cafe in Breage. Well worth a visit. We would definitely pay a return visit. We also had an amazing meal out at The Coach & Horses. We love Cornwall.

We really enjoyed two weeks in the cottage. As it is a home, that meant that it was practically equipped, unlike so many rentals. Jane was very responsive and helpful before and during the stay. We enjoyed walking to the sea from the house and it is really well located for everything that SW Cornwall has to offer. The local pub is great and Porthleven is just a few minutes away (or a coastal walk). The easy parking and lovely outdoor space at the back was also much appreciated. We would definitely come back!

Home away from home!
Amazing cozy cottage. I don't think the photos actually do this cottage justice! So much roomier than it looks on the photos. We didn't want to come home! The village had a power cut one afternoon and the owners were brilliant for getting in touch with and checked in with us after a couple of hours to check it had come back on. Really peaceful village and our 2 dogs loved the garden! Will definitely be back fingers crossed! Thankyou for the wonderful stay!

Perfect for us.
Beautiful cottage with a lovely enclosed garden, spotlessly clean with everything we needed. Lovely park and local pub with good food both within a 5 minute walk. Between Jane and the book in the cottage we had all the info we required. Would definitely recommend, thank you for letting us stay in your lovely home.

Good cottage for seeing west cornwall
The cottage had everything you need my grandchildren loved it the only negative is the immersion heater wasn't working whilst we were there so no hot water to wash pots and have a wash no dishwasher either
