BOSKENWYN COTTAGE
(Sleeps 5)
Nestling
at the head of the Helford River, is the peaceful village of Gweek. Just
on the outskirts of the village is this charming period detached farmhouse,
set within its own grounds and surrounded by beautiful countryside.
This
farmhouse, has all the traditional character and classic features you
would
expect with a property of this type, including a well maintained oil fuelled
Rayburn
within the kitchen, thick cob walls, small paned windows and beamed ceilings.
Enjoying
a sunny position, the farmhouse has a large, private enclosed garden in
which to relax, have a barbeque and enjoy the tranquility of the countryside.
This
is the perfect rural retreat for an * away from it all holiday, without
being isolated
or remote.
The beautiful
village of Gweek, famous for its Seal Sanctuary, is only a ten minute
walk away, and has a well stocked local shop and post office, tearooms,
and a pub which serves very good food. Within easy walking distance
is a strawberry farm which sells traditional Cornish Cream Teas. Close
to Gunwalloe Church Cove, and Kennack Sands, and the coastal paths, this
is a convenient location for the keen hiker, or for those seeking a relaxing
holiday not far from the sea- The scenery around the coastline of the
Lizard Peninsula is breathtaking, much of it owned by the National Trust.
Rugged and beautiful cliffs shelter picturesque coves, and there are unspoilt
fishing villages, such as Cadgwith, within a short drive. |
