The local Portheras Beach is 1 mile. Pendeen shop and pubs 2 miles.
Had a lovely stay at sparrows. Even though I fractured my ankle on the first day. Landlords live next door and are lovely. Sparrows was very comfortable and very clean
We had a fabulous week at Sparrows. We have been to Cornwall many times but this was our first time staying in this area. A friendly welcome from owners, who were on hand for local knowledge but who left us to get on with our holiday too. During the hottest days of the year so far, the thick walls of Sparrows kept us cool and comfy after a hot day on the local beaches or cliff walking. The owners knew the best times to travel too- we left at 8:25pm on the Friday and sailed straight back home with no delays. Everything in the cottage was thoughtfully provided and the little garden was great for breakfast on the bench. It suited us beautifully.
A delightful cottage with coastal views and wonderful amenities. This property is especially good if you want to experience the rugged Cornwall countryside.
Excellent accommodation. Loved staying there.
Our stay September, 2019
Excellently presented cottage, we would have no hesitation in recommending the property to our friends and relatives. Bob and Jenny are to be congratulated for the effort and work that has gone into providing such a high quality residence. Thank you.
