About this property

St Keverne 0.5 miles. This attractive barn conversion is one of a small group of cottages in the beautiful gardens of Chywoone Farmhouse, in a secluded rural position, half a mile from the pretty village of St Keverne on the Lizard Peninsula. An ideal cottage for two, this St Keverne cottage provides a tranquil retreat and is set all on the ground floor, which is beautifully tiled. The cosy sitting room has a feature stone fireplace and woodburner, tall beamed ceilings and a dining area which is light and cheerful. This St Keverne cottage has its own garden area, plus the benefit of being able to wander amongst the well-planted garden and admire the roses. There is an abundance of fabulous walks on the Lizard Peninsula, village pubs to walk to and many sub-tropical gardens to visit nearby, such as Trelissick and Glendurgan. The Helford River is stunning, the coastline dramatic, whilst Falmouth provides shopping, eateries and Pendennis Castle. This St Keverne cottage provides a fabulous retreat off the beaten track but is just half a mile from the attractive Cornish village of St Keverne with traditional pubs and shops surrounding the square. Note: This property can be booked with Refs. 3998 and 4682, together they sleep 8.

The lovely village of St Keverne lies just inland from the sea and is situated on the eastern side of The Lizard Peninsula. The village has pubs and shops which surround the village square, plus a church spire. The South West Coastal path has beautiful coves, sandy bays and spectacular cliffs that are wonderful to walk along and nearby are the Helford River and Helford village, which are worth visiting. Nearby is Falmouth, which has one the largest natural harbours, Pendennis Castle and the popular National Maritime Museum. There is plenty to see and do within this part of Cornwall.
