About this cottage rental

Brookside is a charming, South facing Cornish cottage that sits in a quiet country lane. The cottage is more than 150 years old and has been refurbished to a high standard, decorated in a simple,modern style yet retaining its period charm.
The cottage offers privacy when dining al-fresco on the patio plus spacious accommodation for six plus a cot with three bedrooms (two doubles, one twin) and a large family bathroom. The lounge-dining room has a huge original stone fireplace with an efficient wood-burning stove. Furnishings are modern yet invitingly comfy.
The cottage looks onto a peaceful,pretty lawned garden with rose bushes,edged by mature trees and shrubs with a natural granite slabbed patio area that faces south,enjoying direct sunlight all day long.Both front and rear gardens are private and fully enclosed by walls,fences and natural hedges. A wealth of mature plants and flowering shrubs (camellias, rhododendrons etc.) surround the property.There is ample parking at the front for several cars.
Just a short stroll along the lane is the village pub.The Polgooth Inn serves great local beers and food prepared using locally sourced produce.It`s a proper family-run place that welcomes children and animals and serves food all day both in the pub as well as the garden.There are more excellent pubs and restaurants within easy reach of Brookside, including Austells (3 mls.) and Kingswood (0.5 mls.)

Beautiful cottage which was immaculately clean. Stunning location within easy reach of the beach, The Eden Project and The Lost Gardens of Heligan. Lovely pub only a 5 min walk from the cottage. Can't recommend this property enough we hope to return in the summer.

A lovely, well equipped, spotless cottage that is well placed for visiting the area. The garden is really nice and all enclosed, which was ideal for our dog. The local pub is just a short walk away and the food is very good. The host was very friendly and quickly responded to any questions.

We had the most amazing week at Brookside! Everything we could possibly have needed was available to us and being in such a quiet location means it was the best sleep I’d had in ages.
