About this property

Lowena is a beautifully restored, stone built cottage in the pretty Cornish village of Tywardreath. Situated with the idyllic Polperro Heritage Coast close at hand, you are assured of an unforgettable break. Enter into the bright and spacious contemporary living space where bright, modern furnishings and a handsome wood burning stove set the room off beautifully. There's a well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you can enjoy a hearty meal after a day of adventures. Head up the stairs to three wonderfully comfortable bedrooms, a roomy king-size, a twin and a neat single bedroom. The accommodation concludes with a crisp, family shower room. At the rear is a lovely garden with lawn and picnic area where you can sit and soak up the sun with a refreshing drink of choice. The village of Tywardreath is home to some well regarded pubs and a selection of shops. From here you can visit an array of golden sandy beaches or try your hand at a number of exhilarating water sports. For a great day out take a day trip to the Eden Project. Popular Fowey, Charlestown and Mevagissey can all be reached within a short drive. Further afield, the tropical gardens of the Roseland Peninsula are well worth a visit, as are the famed surfing beaches of North Cornwall. Whatever you decide, Lowena Cottage is a comfortable, welcoming base to return to at the end of a fun packed day.

The pretty, historic Cornish village of Tywardreath, meaning ‘The House on the Strand’, lies in the heart of Daphne du Maurier country and features in her book of the same name. St Andrew’s, the village church, is said to have the best peal of bells in the area, while the village has a lively community, centred round its excellent pubs and range of shops. There are several safe, sandy beaches close to the village, with a variety of watersports and leisure activities available. Par, a small, china clay port with a dog friendly sandy beach is a fifteen minute walk from the village or 5 minutes in the car, home to a main line railway station. Polkerris Beach, a 30 minute walk or a 5 minute drive away, has a beachside restaurant, pub and watersports centre. The attractive waterside village of Fowey is just three miles away, from where there are some dramatic cliff walks to Gribbin Head, passing through much of du Maurier’s familiar landscape. There are many family attractions in the area, including Mevagissey and Charlestown harbours, the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Tywardreath is a village that will appeal to families and those keen to explore the rich heritage and gorgeous coastline of South Cornwall.

    The lounge was very homely and inviting, the kitchen/diner had everything we needed. All the bedrooms were beautifully presented with matching bedding in a nautical theme and artwork to complement each room. The cottage was very clean and comfortable. The only issue we had was a stubborn lock on the front door. We would definitely stay in this cottage again. Thank you.

    The cottage was very clean and well equipped. Perfect location for exploring. Would be useful to have some local information about walks, pubs, etc.

  • Christopher

    Nice and handy for the local shops and pub.
