Walk to beach,village location,nr Fowey and Eden

Nestled in the pretty and typically Cornish village of Tywardreath, Pebble Cottage is a spacious and quirky, newly renovated in 2019, two bedroom cottage dating back to 1850. The cottage is situated on a quiet no through lane, part of The Saints Way, an ancient pilgrims' footpath linking Fowey to Padstow. Step outside the front door and one direction leads you into open countryside with plenty of footpaths, and the other to the village centre and then the beach and South West Coast Path less than a mile away. There is one private parking space right outside the cottage and a fully enclosed, spacious, flat sunny courtyard garden (no steps!) with plenty of seating and a BBQ. Inside, the cottage is fully centrally heated to keep you snug and cosy during winter stays. Pebble Cottage is less than a mile from the wonderful, dog friendly and safe Par Sands Beach, which, with its gently sloping sands is perfect for families and watersports. From the beach you can also pick up the spectacular South West Coast Path with its dramatic cliff top views, wildlife and hidden coves. In one direction you can walk to quaint Charlestown Harbour (as featured in ‘Poldark’), and in the other direction to Polkerris with its watersports, beach, pub and restaurants. If you fancy a longer walk you can carry on past Polkerris to Fowey and catch the bus back, but if you don’t fancy that Fowey is only a 5 minute drive away. Tywardreath, meaning ‘House on the Strand’ lies in the heart of Daphne du Maurier country and features in her book of the same name. It has a great friendly pub with a bistro style family restaurant, a village store, fish and chip shop, an award winning Butcher and a beautiful ancient church. Situated right in the heart of the village with all its amenities, Pebble Cottage is well placed for visiting all the popular tourist attractions on both the north and south coasts, with The Eden Project being only a 10 minute drive away. Tywardreath really is an unbeatable location. The beautiful harbour town of Fowey is just 3 miles away and has a great selection of shops and restaurants. From here you can take the ferry across the Estuary to Bodinnick and Polruan or take a boat trip across to Mevagissey. You may even be lucky enough to spot a dolphin on the way! The town of Par is a 10 minute walk from Pebble Cottage and has a further range of shops, post office and pubs plus a railway station with a direct link to London Paddington, Newquay and the steam train at Bodmin. You really are literally spoilt for choice when it comes to nice walks and things to do in this area at any time of the year. Accommodation Pebble Cottage was completely renovated throughout in 2019 and so offers you a clean, fresh and quirky place to stay. Being built in the 1800’s there are many interesting features and beams, which add to its character, whilst modern appliances and central heating have been fitted for your comfort and convenience. There are two large, well furnished bedrooms upstairs both with king size beds, plus there is a further single bed in the back bedroom with room for a cot too. The brand new, large shower room is also upstairs and we provide all towels and bedding. Downstairs a good sized hallway leads into a cosy lounge with electric woodburner and also into a good-sized kitchen/diner. A spacious utility room housing the washing machine and space for all your ‘stuff’ leads out into the fully enclosed, private, sunny courtyard garden. We have a good selection of books and local information to help you make the best of your time in Cornwall. If you are travelling with children we have a good range of toys plus baby and toddler equipment to save you cramming it all into the car, just specify what you would like before you arrive. There are no end of beautiful walks in this area suitable for all times of the year, and the main Cornish visitor towns and attractions are all close to hand too. Cornwall is a very dog friendly place, and for this reason we do welcome well-behaved dogs and owners and we have a selection of doggie items that you can borrow too. We are dog owners ourselves and know how enjoyable it is to bring your four legged friend along with you on holiday, especially to a place like Cornwall. We are sure you will have a wonderful stay at Pebble Cottage, but if you would like to know anything else prior to booking, please don't hesitate to ask. NB: Due to the nature of the cottage, there is a sloping roof in the back bedroom that restricts head height along one wall - see photo for more detail. I'm sorry but we do not accept more than 4 adults per booking.
