Nestled in the pretty and typically Cornish village of Tywardreath, 3 miles from Fowey, Pebble Cottage is our well equipped and homely Cornish miners cottage dating from 1860. Located under a mile from the beach and just a 10 minutes drive from The Eden Project, it is also situated on a quiet no through lane, which is part of The Saints Way, an ancient pilgrims' footpath linking Fowey to Padstow. Step outside the front door and one direction leads you into open countryside with plenty of footpaths and lovely views, and the other to the village centre and then the beach and South West Coast Path less than a mile away. There is one private parking space right outside the cottage and a fully enclosed, spacious, flat sunny courtyard garden (no steps!) with plenty of seating and a BBQ. Inside, the cottage is centrally heated throughout to keep you snug and cosy during winter stays.Pebble Cottage is less than a mile from the wonderful, dog friendly and safe Par Sands Beach, which, with its gently sloping sands is perfect for families and watersports. From the beach you can also pick up the spectacular South West Coast Path with its dramatic cliff top views, wildlife and hidden coves. In one direction you can walk to quaint Charlestown Harbour (as featured in ‘Poldark’), and in the other direction to Polkerris with its watersports, beach, pub and restaurants and spectacular sunsets. If you fancy a longer walk you can carry on past Polkerris to Fowey and catch the bus back, but if you don’t fancy that Fowey is only a 5 minute drive away.Tywardreath, meaning ‘House on the Strand’ lies in the heart of Daphne du Maurier country and features in her book of the same name. It has a great friendly pub with a popular family and dog welcome restaurant, a village store, fish and chip shop, an award winning Butcher and a beautiful ancient church. Tywardreath is known as one of the friendliest villages in Cornwall, and with it's great location it is hard to beat for a Cornish holiday.
