Pentewan is a delightful coastal village set back from the sandy expanse of Pentewan Beach. The village shop and pub draw visitors from far and wide, while the beach is good for children and a favourite with water sport enthusiasts. Dogs are only permitted on the beach between the first Sunday in November and the end of February, but dog walkers can enjoy the stunning woodland of the Pentewan Valley Trail, along with other beaches a short drive away. The coastal path passes through the village and as it climbs up the cliffside towards Mevagissey, the views across the bay toward Devon in the far distance are breath-taking. Good cycle paths pass close by and there is cycle hire available in the village. The nearby fishing village of Mevagissey offers many restaurants and fresh local fish. The Lost Gardens of Heligan and Pinetum Gardens are both just a short drive away, while the Eden Project is within easy reach and well worth a visit.

We wanted for nothing at this characterful little property, a very handy short drive from all the places he were headed. The Ship Inn serves good food and local beer and is a five minute walk away. The house keeper, Claire, is an absolute gem and prepped the house beautifully prior to our arrival (we made a few more trips to Lobbâs Farmshop during the week!). If youâre tall, remember to duck! I didnât several times with painful consequences and pay attention when parking! Lovely week. Thank you.

The attention to detail and exquisite finish throughout meant that our stay was just perfect. I could have lost a whole day in the spa bathrooms! Welcome gifts were thoughtful and delicious. The Terrace is an amazing building with a rich history available in the church which we enjoyed exploring. Josie enjoys a breathtaking view over Pentewan. No light pollution so you can enjoy the stars from the veranda. The kitchen was a pleasure to use- perfectly equipped. The furnishings are tasteful and luxurious with extremely comfortable beds. Already looking at dates that we can visit again, thank you for a magical place to spend Christmas

We have had such a lovely break and only wished we could have stayed longer. Claire the housekeeper was brilliant, providing us with some local recommendations of places to visit and things to do. The hamper was such a fantastic addition , hadn't expected so much food. Every room in the cottage has been beautifully decorated to the highest standard. We loved relaxing in the luxurious bathroom, the bath is something else. It was lovely to be able to light the log burner and chill after a blustery beach walk, really cosy. Hadn't realised the South West Coast path is less than a minute away, we managed to walk to Charlestown which we would highly recommend. We would honestly recommend Josie to anyone looking for a first class experience in a beautiful location. Even in the winter we were able to watch the stars whilst sitting on the Terrace enjoying the wonderful view. We will definitely be back.
