May Cottage is an enchanting terraced stone cottage located in the picturesque hamlet of Pentewan, Cornwall, in the South West of England. It accommodates up to four people with its three bedrooms and offers features such as a nearby pub, proximity to the coast, and an open fire. The cottage boasts a stunning garden and a wood-burning stove, making it ideal for family or friends to enjoy a relaxing stay.
The cottage's entry is through a stable door that leads into a comfortable living room filled with books, games, and DVDs, perfect for entertainment during wet days or cozy evenings. The well-equipped kitchen includes a breakfast table, and the first floor houses three bedrooms along with a family bathroom. Separated by a quiet lane, the property features two decking areas with garden furniture and a large garden offering enchanting views across the valley. There is ample parking available for two cars.
May Cottage is just a five-minute walk from Pentewan beach, a popular spot among bathers and water sport enthusiasts due to its large size that rarely gets crowded. For outdoor enthusiasts, the Pentewan Valley Trail offers a 4 km inland road-free path through beautiful woodland, while the scenic coastal footpath stretches in either direction over rugged cliff tops and hidden coves. The unspoilt and uncommercialised village provides a convenience store, pub, and a well-reputed bar/restaurant.
The picturesque fishing village of Mevagissey, with its working harbour, and the Lost Gardens of Heligan are within five miles of the cottage, both accessible via a cycle path. Additionally, the world-famous Eden Project is less than 20 minutes away by car. Nestled in a sheltered valley along a quiet row of traditional cottages, May Cottage offers a cozy haven by the sea and is an excellent choice for breaks at any time of the year.
