Medlyn Moor nature reserve is at the bottom of the hill for a leisurely walk. There are supermarkets a short drive away in Falmouth or Helston but please note Porkellis does not have a shop but I provide all essentials in the cottage, including a simple breakfast so please advise if you have any dietary requirements. We also have space to store bicycles if you want to take advantage of the great cycle rides to explore in Cornwall. The guests have the hut and surrounding area to them selves. The guests can either text or knock on our door to contact us. The area is very rural and quiet and ideal for those who wish to get away from it all. There are 2 good pubs within 2 miles but the nearest large town is 5 miles away. The area boasts many lovely walks and an abundance of wildlife. Public transport is limited due to the rural location but there are regular buses to Helston , Falmouth and Truro. The nearest train station is Falmouth. The lane to our property is a bumpy track , it is absolutely fine but we like to let you know. We are also remote and it is a quiet area you will need to drivea short distance to go to a shop and the nearest pub is a 15 minute walk.
