Spacious comfortable cottage for families or couples, offering the perfect relaxing location on the stunning Roseland Peninsula, close to the Fal Estuary.
Church Cottage is located in the village of Ruan Lanihorne, on The Roseland Peninsula in Cornwall, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Special Scientific Interest. Situated in a tranquil setting, with horses and chickens for neighbours, it is within easy reach of many beautiful beaches and walks such as St Mawes (9 miles), Portloe (5 miles) and Portscatho (5.5 miles) with its famous Hidden Hut as well as wonderful routes along Ruan Creek and the well known Da Bara Cafe. Ruan Creek is a wonderful nature reserve with a wealth of wildlife, you can try and spot rare migrating birds and barn owls. The owners live on-site and the properties have been in the family for over fifty years. This is a great base to visit other attractions such as Trelissick Gardens (8 miles via ferry), the Eden Project (15 miles) or visit Truro city (10 miles) for some retail therapy and to take a look around the beautiful cathedral.
Enter the cottage via the conservatory with its sunny seating area, an ideal spot to get stuck into a good book or enjoy your morning coffee. Heading through the front door you will find yourself in a large entrance hall, with the kitchen leading off to the right. It offers plenty of worktop space and has a large kitchen table where you can enjoy home-cooked meals with your loved ones. The kitchen features a stunning Rayburn cooker as well as an electric cooker, dishwasher, fridge and coffee machine. There is also a useful utility room off the kitchen which gives plenty of storage for welly boots, and buckets and spades, as well as featuring a microwave, washing machine and fridge/freezer. Also leading from the hallway is a handy downstairs WC. The lounge is across the hall and boasts French doors with fabulous views out over the creek; this really is the perfect spot to sit and relax. There is a wood burner for chilly evenings and both a Smart TV and sonos speaker in this room so you can all snuggle up in the evening and watch a good film. A small table and chairs in the corner is perfect for an evening of games with the family. Up the stairs is a modern family shower room with a shower and WC followed by a generous super-king-size room (which can be made up as a twin on request) and plenty of storage space. Next door is a cosy single bedroom followed by the master bedroom with a king-size bed and dual aspect window, so you can wake up to views of the creek and beyond.
Heading outside, you’ll find a large, enclosed courtyard patio with garden furniture, BBQ, fire pit and a separate large, enclosed lawn area to the rear with direct access to the creek and private woodland walks (please note these areas are not enclosed). There is private parking space for two cars.
