Pet friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 4 - Falmouth (4.5mls NW), Cornwall

Set in a quiet countryside location next door to the owner’s home, this stunning property promises a relaxing escape to guests. Spacious and inviting, this wonderful single-level home is an opportunity to unwind among beautiful surroundings both inside and out. Spend mornings running around with your four-legged friend in the shared field or snuggle up on the sofa in front of the wood burner.

Whether you’re off to one of the pubs in Penryn (1.5 miles) or you’re having a lie-in in one of the bright and airy bedrooms, it won’t take you long to settle in here. The open-plan living area has a wonderful farmhouse style, with exposed rich wood beams in the vaulted ceilings and pretty cupboard doors in the kitchen. Outside, the patio is the perfect spot for an al fresco dinner grilled up on the BBQ and the garden is completely enclosed, meaning there’s no need to worry about little ones or the canine family members.

Head down to Falmouth (3.5 miles) and wander around the harbour before finding a cosy pub or restaurant to rest in. Pendennis Castle (5 miles) and the National Maritime Museum (4 miles) are close by, while Gyllyngvase Beach (3.5 miles) has a magnificent wide arc of golden sand and blue seas. Further afield, Flambards Theme Park (11 miles) is a hit with children, as is Trebah Garden (7 miles) with lush canopies bursting with exotic blooms and tunnels of plant life.
