About this property

Set in gorgeous gardens & quiet countryside close to Mousehole and the sea

Chyenhal Garden Cottage is bright and sunny and has been imaginatively renovated to a high standard by its artist owners. It is full of character with painted wood panelling, beams, roof lights, art and a cosy wood burner. The large windows create magical pictures of the beautiful gardens in which it is set. Approached along a picturesque bridleway track there is off road parking and, it is set in quiet countryside, but still just minutes away from everything you need for a great holiday.

The living area is spacious; relax on the comfortable two seater sofa and enjoy the play of the flames in the wood burner or enjoy the outlook on garden and countryside. This connection with the outside is also one of the pleasures of dining by the window that looks onto the beautiful cherry tree and is bathed in the glow of the late sun at the end of the day.

The well equipped kitchen area includes ceramic hob and hood, fan oven, microwave, fridge freezer, and washing machine.

The bedroom is spacious and has a double bed, wood panelling and is filled with light and sunshine in the mornings and is warm and cosy at night. The en suite bathroom has a large shower enclosure and power shower.

Step outside the door and enjoy time in the sunny courtyard garden that is just for your use; BBQ and dine outdoors. We also have an acre and a half of garden here which we are very happy to share with our guests; feel free to stroll, relax and enjoy time in what one guest described as our "little piece of paradise".

*** Please note that we only accept one dog, for which there is a £30 charge per booking [see booking form]. If you have more than one dog, please contact us before booking ***

Short break in Cornwall

Comfortable and cosy retreat from the rain

We had a lovely stay in this beautiful cottage which was very well equipped, comfortable and cosy; just perfect for a short break when the weather was less than kind. The hosts were extremely welcoming and made sure that we had everything we needed.

A perfect hideaway

We had a wonderful time in the garden cottage. It started with a warm welcome and not forget the lovely cream tea with great scones. The cottage is well equipped, clean and cozy. The garden is also great to spend some time in.

A truly charming cottage. Ideal for peace and quiet. Very friendly hosts. Wonderful garden surrounding the cottage. Great local pub about 1 mile away. Lots of coves along this coast, all within a few miles drive.
