Whitstone Cottage

Helston, Cornwall

4

Located in Helston, Cornwall, this charming cottage offers a unique blend of traditional and modern features, making it an ideal retreat for up to four guests. The property is a rare example of an unspoilt cob and stone Cornish cottage, showcasing a part-thatched, part-slate roof that adds to its rustic charm. Inside, visitors will appreciate the character of low beamed ceilings, slate floors, and wonky timber frames, harmoniously complemented by contemporary furnishings that ensure a comfortable stay.

The cottage includes an enclosed garden, perfect for enjoying the sun during the summer months, and provides lovely views of nearby historic buildings. Guests can explore a network of footpaths right outside the door, leading to Loe Pool, the largest freshwater lake in Cornwall, which is surrounded by lush wooded banks. For those seeking a beach experience, the golden sands of Loe Bar are conveniently located just a 25-minute walk from the cottage.

Helston, the nearest town, is only a 5-minute drive away, offering a variety of local amenities and attractions. For a more adventurous outing, the iconic island of St Michael’s Mount is reachable within 25 minutes. Visitors can take a scenic boat trip to the island or, during low tide, walk across the causeway. Once on the island, guests can explore its medieval church and castle, as well as the beautifully maintained subtropical terraced garden.

This cottage not only provides a cozy and picturesque setting for relaxation but also serves as a gateway to a range of outdoor activities and historical sites. Whether you are interested in hiking, beach outings, or exploring cultural landmarks, this location offers a diverse array of options to enhance your stay in the stunning South West of England.
