Luxury 5-star cottage near the Cornish coast on the Bonython Estate, Lizard Peninsula
For Covid-19 cancellations, Staycation Holidays offer a full money back guarantee. If you or we have to cancel your booking due to government restrictions relating to Covid - you will receive a full refund, or you may decide to choose alternative dates.
St Corantyn Cottage, sleeping four, is an exquisite holiday cottage set in the tranquillity and seclusion of the magnificent Bonython Estate. The cottage is beautifully furnished, earning a 5-star rating from the Cornish Tourist Board.
Guests can enjoy the tranquillity of the beautiful and renowned Bonython Estate Gardens beyond the cottage’s own courtyards.
Situated six miles south of Helston, St Corantyn Cottage is close to the magnificent beaches and coves of The Lizard Peninsula. Eight minutes' drive brings you down to Poldhu Cove and the wonderful coastal paths.
St Corantyn Cottage has been updated and sympathetically improved in the last three years. Now comprising two bedrooms, each with a spacious separate dressing area and with a bathroom en suite for one and a shower room for the other, all the accommodation is on ground level. A large living/dining area with working wood burning stove, opening onto a well equipped kitchen completes the accommodation.
Decorated with restful style and taste, this most comfortable accommodation for one or two couples is completely private and surrounded by a walled courtyard on the southern side, a veritable sun trap complete with sun-loungers. Private parking is accessed from the Estate road and car spaces, adjacent to the entrance are a short distance from the front door, through an enclosed lawn garden. A wonderful space for a barbecue.
