Rural peace close to 6 Roseland beaches, with log burner and summerhouse

With delightful views over the surrounding countryside, Lamorna Cottage is a perfect place to relax, unwind and enjoy the best of South Cornwall, including numerous great beaches nearby. Part of an attractive stone barn on Tucoyse Farm (no longer a working farm) which dates back to the Doomsday Book. Period character features include stone elevations, wooden framed windows, broad slate sills and exposed beams. A comfortable and freshly-decorated lounge now with a log-burning stove and Smart TV, spacious dining room, newly fitted kitchen with washing machine and dish-washer. And upstairs (newly decorated) the bathroom and two bedrooms (double and twin) with new beds. Plus free WiFi throughout. In addition to our own lawned garden with a new summerhouse (containing some fun beach gear) hidden behind the willow tree there is a further walled garden (shared) with lawn at the front. Also French doors at the back opening onto a graveled courtyard area with benches, perfect for an al fresco breakfast. There's also a stone plinth designed for disposable barbecues. We're just two minutes from Polmassick Vineyard; 1 mile from The Crown at St Ewe, a great traditional pub with good food; and 3 miles to the lovely beach at Caerhays Castle. The very popular Lost Gardens of Heligan are only 3 miles up the road, Mevagissey is 4 miles away as are at least 5 more decent beaches, each with its own character. The Eden Project is a short drive. Waitrose has just opened up on the way into Truro, a cathedral city which has plenty of other decent shops. Tesco and Asda are also within reach. (One guest arranged delivery from Sainsbury's). The coastal walking along the Roseland Heritage Coast between Mevagissey and St Mawes offers some of the most spectacular and unspoilt scenery in the country, including hidden beaches and coves, tiny fishing villages and majestic sea cliffs (now designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty).

Lovely 2 bedroomed cottage. Very well equipped in quiet location near to Mevagissey. Really enjoyed our stay, very peaceful and relaxing and a nice location to base our trips around Cornwall.

Perfect base for exploring the Roseland Peninsula
The cottage is well situated to explore the surrounding area and beautiful towns and beaches. A car is needed, but everything is within close driving distance (Carne beach is about a 15 min drive, Mevagissey about 20 min, the Eden Project less than 30 min). The cottage is well equipped with a well researched and helpful guest guide for the area, selection of books and games, and the kitchen has everything you need. Note that there is no bath (only a shower) but it's really a minor point, it's a lovely cottage that we'll be staying in again!

Lovely rural location
The property suited us two adults very well. The space was as described, comfortable, and big enough for our needs. The garden is separated by a very minor road which was a surprise but there is a shared gated grassed courtyard attached. We liked being out of the way and enjoying evening walks along the quiet lanes.

Fabulous stay at a beautiful property
This is a lovely cottage in a fabulous, peaceful location. There are no amenities close by, so you have to drive which was not a problem to us as we combined shopping with other trips. Close to the lovely fishing port of Mevagissey which had lots of bars and restaurants as well as a fish and chip shop. St Austell was only 5 miles away where there is an Asda and a Tesco. The cottage had everything you could possibly need - extremely well equipped and obviously recently refurbished. The only very slight comment would be that maybe a slightly larger television (thought the one that was there was a very good smart tv). Also maybe another set of crockery as there was sonly 4 place settings - this was fine as it is a 4 person property but as it has a fabulous full size dishwasher it meant we put the dishwasher on more than we needed!! The other slight criticism was the check in/ check out times. You couldn't get in until 5pm, and had to vacate by 9am. Even taking into consideration covid, this is still quite a large window and most other properties we have rented are check-in from 2pm and vacate by 10am. Nonetheless a fabukous holiday in a wonderful cottage - we will definitely return.

Fantastic family holiday
What a absolutely beautiful property. It was everything we could have wanted and more. It was like stepping foot into someone’s home rather than a rental. Nothing was missing, every small detail was thought about and the location was perfect. A great base camp to explore the delights of East Cornwall. I would book this property again in a heartbeat! Thank you for a wonderful holiday!
