Carole's Cottage in Charlestown, Prime Quiet Location 50yds from the Harbour

We aim to make you feel comfortable and completely at home in our 1860's cottage, which has been renovated throughout to give you a traditional feel of cosiness and quality. The original slate front is one of only two which still exist in the village.
Two separate good size living rooms and a generous size kitchen offer plenty of family living space whatever the weather whilst the sheltered sunny and private garden is a major feature of the cottage- perfect for eating outside, relaxing with a book or sitting out in the evening. The period cast iron fireplace with gas fired coals gives a warm welcome if you are a little chilly whilst central heating warms the whole house.
The cottage is located just above the Harbour but hidden from the crowds at peak times, . A hidden gem offering privacy, yet direct access to the village, harbour and beaches.
Parking for yourselves and your guests is right outside.

Chill out at lunchtime or spend an hour reading in the garden whilst the rest of your party are on the beach, fishing off the harbour or walking the coast path. A two minute walk will allow you to join the rest of the party for lunch with them in the pub.
The stable door at the back opens onto the quiet, private, sunny, slate paved, garden at the back of the cottage. Our cottage has been totally renovated but retains a cottage feel. It has 2 comfortable sized bedrooms, the main one is a double with lovely sea views to greet you when you wake. The other is a generous twin. The cottage perfectly accommodates four and is the ideal place to explore the area on foot, by bus or car.
Feel free to phone for an informal chat before booking as we want you to feel happy about staying in the cottage.

If you stay here we can offer you free unlimited parking 100yds from St. Austell railway station for train days out. Alternatively, if you would like a car free holiday we can offer you complimentary transfers to and from the railway station at the beginning and end of your holiday. We can also arrange transfers to and from Newquay Airport at nominal cost.
If you are trying to find the property on Google Earth there is no Street View as the roads in and around the harbour are all private and have not been surveyed. On the satellite view the cottage can be found by going to the top end of the harbour, look to the right to see the Shipwreck Centre. There is a road which is at right angles to the harbour running up the right hand side of the Shipwreck Centre and at the end on the opposite side there is a row of cottages on the right and a pair of cottages on the left which on the satellite view looks like a large detached property but is actually a pair of semis. The cottage is the left hand one of these.
Golf at Carlyon Bay (look it up) one mile away.
Horse riding widely available locally.
Eden two miles away
Heligan four miles away.
Newquay sixteen miles away.
Bike hire locally.
Please ask about anything we have not thought about.

If you fancy breakfast out or a mid afternoon cream tea then walk to Lovedays wonderful restaurant just across the road

A great cottage in a fabulous location. The cottage had everything we needed and a lovely suntrap little garden where we sipped our evening G and T. Goodies left in the fridge were a nice suprise (they didn,t last long!) Spotlessly clean and very comfortable . Just what we needed.

Great property in a great location.
Met by hosts with a warm welcome and a cream tea which set the tone for an enjoyable stay. Great location in Charlestown just above the harbour. Enjoyed days on the shingle beach and evenings in the many hospitality outlets. Would recommend both the excellently equipped property and Charlestown as a holiday location.

A lovely cottage in a good location. It has everything that you would want. Good location (although the noise from the pub kitchen wasn't ideal). Would certainly consider a return visit.

This is a lovely cottage in a beautiful peaceful spot. Lovely new bathroom- great shower. The garden is sunny and all the equipment you could need is provided. The owners were lovely and left a range of goodies in the fridge plus 2 bunches of fresh flowers.
