Description
Nestled in glorious Cornish countryside and just minutes away from some of the south of the county's must see locations and attractions, staying in one of these lovely properties will enable easy access wherever you choose to go.
These purpose built two bedroom holiday cottages all benefit from being set in well-tended, landscaped grounds and have the loveliest of views looking down across the Luxulyan Valley and beyond.
Cornwall's antiques capital, Lostwithiel is just 3 miles away. Picturesque Fowey with foot ferry to neighbouring Polruan and car ferry enabling onward access to Looe and Polperro is 5 miles away. Charlestown with its grade two listed harbour is a ten minute drive and has plenty to keep you occupied. The interesting shipwreck and heritage centre in Charlestown is a good place to go if the sun doesn't shine with a couple of terrific family and dog friendly pubs in the village too.
The world famous Eden Project is only 3 miles by car and well worth a visit or repeat visit if you've been before. The Lost Gardens of Heligan are a little further away (30 minutes' drive) but again, well worth visiting.

When you book a holiday in Lostwithiel, you’ll find yourself right in the heart of Cornwall with easy access to the county’s best bits, from beautiful beaches to Bodmin Moor.
Set in a beautiful wooded valley on the banks of the River Fowey, Lostwithiel is an ancient stannary town, steeped in history. Dating back to the 12th Century, it was once the capital of Cornwall. Today you’ll find its streets filled with historic buildings, narrow alleyways and fascinating shops, with the new title of the antiques capital of Cornwall. You could easily spend several days of your holiday in Lostwithiel browsing the antique shops, delis, interior design boutiques and farmers’ market stalls, stopping for lunch at one of the many cafes, pubs and restaurants.
Just outside the town stand the remarkable ruins of Restormel Castle. A perfectly-circular structure, Restormel Castle is one of the most striking castles in Britain. The views from the castle are stunning, making it a lovely place for a walk. There are several stunning walks around Lostwithiel, through ancient woodlands, along riverbanks and across Cornish countryside. We love the gentle walk to Lerryn, a peaceful waterside village thought to be the inspiration for Kenneth Grahame’s The Wind in the Willows.
Thanks to its central location, you can fill your holiday in Lostwithiel with days out to Cornwall’s famous attractions. Within a short drive you’ll reach the south coast’s ancient fishing villages and beautiful beaches, as well as the rugged uplands of Bodmin Moor. The majestic biomes of the Eden Project are only 10 minutes away, while Daphne Du Maurier’s hometown, Fowey, is also nearby.
With a busy events calendar, you can book a holiday in Lostwithiel at any time of year and you’ll always find plenty to do, from markets, fairs and auctions to carnivals and the Christmassy Dickensian Night.
There is reserved parking for each property.
- A double sofa bed in the living room accommodates the 5th/6th guests.
- The pet friendly properties welcome up to two dogs of any size. Pet fee is included in rental.
