About this property

A blissful base for a romantic getaway, Little Orchard Barn is a short drive away from many of Cornwall's coastal sights, including the nearby Porthpean Beach. Upon arrival, you will be pleased to find off-road parking, so you can swiftly move your luggage inside, before getting your break started! Make yourself at home in the living/dining room, where a stylish grey sofa offers a seat in front of the TV, so you can cuddle up with your partner whilst enjoying a captivating movie. Continue to the kitchen, where you can find the essentials needed to make delicious meals for you and your loved one. When sleep calls, progress through the lovely abode to find a well-presented double bedroom, a space not only featuring calming hues of blue, but offering handy hanging space for your things. The shower room can be found next door, continuing the blue, coastal theme and providing you with a refreshing shower at the end of the day. St Austell and the local area are home to a plethora of things to see and do, from the stunning beaches nearby and the gorgeous Pinetum Gardens to the unique experiences of Cornwall Football Golf and the St Austell Brewery tours; be sure to also venture a little further out of town to experience the famed Eden Project attraction and the Lost Gardens of Heligan! If you're looking for more outings by the coast, Pentewan isn't far and is home to a picture-postcard beach which enjoys access to the Pentewan Sailing Club and Cornwall Watersports where you can hire Kayaks, Paddle Boards and other watersports equipment. Even more fun awaits at Megavissey, a fishing port that boasts a museum showcasing local history, a selection of restaurants and shops and walks along the Megavissey Harbour Wall. Discover the delights of the South West Coast Path, which is easily accessible from nearby Charlestown or Pentewan, or venture cross-country to Newquay, the UK's surfing hub; or maybe you'd prefer to spend some time inland in Bodmin and Truro?

The thriving market town of St Austell is located pleasantly inside the lovely county of Cornwall, just a few miles from the wonderful shore.

    The owners very helpful. access with the car a bit tight but would stay again which says it all.

  • Gina

    The kitchen had all the necessary equipment for preparing light meals. The garden was perfect for our dog, safe and secure. We were warmly welcomed by the owner and left treats for both us and our dog. Thank you. Unfortunately it’s only let down is the availability of parking. It is very difficult to manoeuvre anything bigger than a small car, plus the neighbour opposite will not allow you to use even a few feet of his property even though this isn’t clearly defined. Generally we had a good week there.

    It was a very enjoyable holiday, the only downside was the access through very narrow lanes off the property and difficulty parking. The step up into the property could make access difficult for some people. Access to the very nice and compact garden via the steps could have been trimmed back. The owners were very accommodating and it was nice to receive a lovely welcome pack on arrival. Thanks to Sandy and her partner for the use of the cottage. Very much appreciated. Ike and Val
