Charming former coach house in an idyllic woodland garden, 300m from St Kew Inn.

A very comfortable 2 bedroom cottage, the front bedroom with a 5ft double bed, the rear with twin 3ft singles. It has a stylish bathroom with underfloor heating, and a bath with shower over. The living/dining room has dining table and chairs in addition to a large leather sofa, underfloor heating and Smart TV. French doors lead from here onto a large south-facing granite paved terrace with teak benches and slate table. The well furnished kitchen has an electric Aga, which keeps it comfortably cosy throughout the year, a breakfast bar with stools, a dishwasher, and plenty of storage space. The property also has a washer/dryer and free high speed wi-fi broadband.

Super garden; extensive woodland, streams, ponds, lawns and shrubberies, 3 acres in extent. Tables and chairs provide sitting areas in various parts of the garden. The property lies at the end of a 100m drive which provides privacy and security.

The St Kew Inn, just 300m away, is a truly atmospheric traditional country pub and provides excellent food.

The dramatic North Cornwall coast is easily accessible; Port Isaac just 3 miles, Polzeath and Rock just 6 miles. Many miles of National Trust coastline provide spectacular walking. Great surfing beaches, sheltered coves, and the stunning Camel estuary offer something for everyone: swimming, surfing, sailboarding, kitesurfing, sailing, kayaking, rowing, boat trips, etc.

There is great walking on Bodmin Moor, extensive cycle trails (Cardinham woods, Lanhydrock and the very popular Camel Trail) and many and various visitor attractions. The Eden project is a must and only 18 miles away.

Cottage with character
Excellent location to explore the south west of Cornwall. Homely cottage. Just right for 2 people. Lovely to have the St Kew Inn just 300 yards away. Very popular so bookings essential. Do try the moules. They were delicious.

Beautiful cottage stunning gardens
Brilliant cottage very well equipped with beautiful gardens. All the furniture and fittings of good quality, lovely bedding. Some cottages we have stayed in have had cheap linens and towels but not Tom and Sandy they were great hosts even providing a very welcome plate of shortbread and milk to make a cup of tea on arrival. Very kind and friendly they made us feel right at home, thank you. The Arga was interesting and toasting bread was fun but must admit didn't do any other cooking - well we were on holiday! The local pub has a great atmosphere serving good and plentiful food. Port Isaac (Doc Martin country), Wadebridge, Bude and Padstowe were just some of the places we went to. Padstowe for Rick Stein fish and chip restaurant not to be missed as is Port Isaac for cream tea. We can honestly say this is the best cottage we have stayed in.

Retreat in magical garden
Beautiful property owned by a couple both of whom have gardening backgrounds. You feel like you in the middle of an historic, well cared for estate. We had one major problem and that was finding the property. Somehow we did not get good directions. The name of the property in the online description would have helped. The Coachman’s Cottage is just the name on the rental unit. Once there the owners were very helpful, accommodating.

Cosy little cottage
We had a lovely stay at this cottage. Very clean and the perfect size for me and my husband and our 5yr old. Perfect base to explore what Cornwall has to offer. This was a very last minute booking so we're lucky to have found it! Very happy with our stay.

Coachman's Cottage - September 2021
Lovely cottage located in a fantastic garden - very peaceful and private. Indoors the cottage is maintained to a high standard and is even more comfortable than the pictures suggest. Everything we needed for our stay was readily available. As newcomers to Aga cooking we rose to the challenge and successfully cooked a few meals on it! St Kew itself is well located near to main roads allowing for easy trips around the coast or South to Bodmin / St Austell - plenty of interest within 30 minutes drives!

Wunderbare Unterkunft in toller Umgebung
Das Cottage erfüllte alle unsere Erwartungen. Wundervolle Lage, super Ausgangpunkt für Ausflüge, sehr gemütlich. Besonders toll war der persönliche Empfang durch Sandy samt der netten Einführung in die Besonderheiten des Hauses (der AGA-Herd ist klasse!). Dazu stand eine vorbereitete Tea-Time mit frischem Shortbread bereit - unglaublich nett. Die Ausstattung des Cottages war hervorragend, uns fehlte nichts. Die Übernahme war super einfach, Sandy und Tom sehr hilfsbereit. Wir können das Cottage nur wärmstens weiter empfehlen und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Herzlichen Dank für die schöne Zeit!

Cosy cottage in stunning surroundings
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Coachman’s Cottage. We were greeted by the delightful Tom and Sandy with a very warm welcome and delicious shortbread- thank you! The sounds of flowing water and birdsong set in such beautiful gardens was truly restorative. The cottage is superbly located to easily explore and enjoy the nearby coast. The Lewis Family

Fantastic cottage set in three acres of landscaped garden
The best cottage my husband and I have stayed in. We were made to feel very welcome, homemade shortbread left in the kitchen, delicious! Everywhere was beautifully clean, in fact it sparkled, from the glassware to the bathroom taps. It was warm and cosy, and the furnishings of a high standard. Tucked away in a small village, so many lovely places were easily accessible to visit. We would thoroughly recommend this cottage for a family or a couple. We would not hesitate to return if we were in the area again. Thank you to Sandie and Tom.

A very enjoyable stay.
My wife and I received a warm welcome to a very clean and well-ordered cottage. Everything we needed for easy living was available and the owners were helpful in giving us information about appliances and also facilities in the local area, including the characterful St Kew Inn. The amazingly extensive and well-stocked garden is delightful and we were allowed free access to all parts. Our only (slight) adverse comment is that as natural light is somewhat reduced by surrounding trees the lighting in the living room could be warmer and brighter. Overall a most enjoyable experience. If the option were available we would make the score 4.8 out of 5.
