About this property

Thyme: Easy Access to both North & South Coast of Cornwall - Family Friendly

Thyme is a light & spacious 2 bedroom cottage - 1 king size & 1 twin with 2 single beds (adult size) & a private garden.

Thyme is located a short 10 minute drive to both the A30 & A38, giving easy access to both the North & South Coast of Cornwall.

The open plan layout on the ground floor is light & airy with a kitchen/diner & stylish, comfortable lounge area with a cosy wood burning stove. The 2 bedrooms on 1st floor are attractive and restful with crisp cotton bedding, soft throws & lovely views.

Thyme has a private garden - a sunny and relaxed area in which to wind down with a glass of something chilled whilst enjoying the stunning views to the main one acre guest garden. Parking for 2 cars is available on-site.

Nestled in beautiful countryside on the very edge of Bodmin Moor, yet located just 6 miles from both A38 & A30, Thyme cottage is in an ideal location to easily access the best of everything that Cornwall has to offer.

Eden, Lanhydrock and Heligan are just a short drive away & the rugged cliffs of the South Coast (Looe, Polperro, Mevagissey, Rame Head) plus quaint fishing villages and the sandy beaches of the North Coast (Padstow, Polzeath, Newquay) are all within easy reach.

Dog friendly circular walks for both the casual stroller and also the accomplished hiker can be enjoyed from our very own doorstep !

Fantastic home from home

We spent an amazing two-week holiday at Thyme Cottage. We had an excellent experience. Plenty to see and do in location. The cottage is in a beautiful, quiet location and is spotlessly clean. Every room was well equipped with everything you need from hairdryers to kitchen essentials. Very tastefully furnished. All appliances are top range. Fluffy towels and lovely bed linen. It’s a lovely comfortable cottage to stay and is very private. Communication through booking, arrival and departure was excellent. Julie is prompt in responding to queries and very helpful. We would not hesitate in staying here again on our next trip to Cornwall.

Book, Book it now! You won’t be disappointed.

A beautiful cottage equipped with everything a family or couple would need whilst away from home. Hosts were very welcoming, the cottage is easy to find and set within idyllic countryside surroundings. The cottage has all the modern amenities you would need whilst still keeping it’s true character with wooden rafters and stone walls. I would highly recommend this accommodation - it’s just perfect! Oh and the homemade cream scones were perfection on arrival; just what was needed after a long drive.

Beautiful cottage. Great location.

Great cottage at a great location. Easy access to the Eden Project, Lands End, and St Ives plus many stunning beaches around the area. Neil and Julie were great hosts and the cream tea on the first day was wonderful. The garden had plenty of activities to keep the kids occupied too. I would recommend to anyone.

I live on site with my other half in a lovely old barn here at Badgers Sett Holiday Cottages which incorporates 3 holiday cottages, Rosemary Lavender and Thyme.

I spend my time gardening & enjoy running with a local club !

Why they chose this property

We are spoilt for choice with beautiful walks along the South West Coast Path, which we love to visit and have spent many happy hours strolling along catching up with each other whilst enjoying the coastal views!

Thyme Cottage is located a short 10 minute drive to both the A30 & A38, giving easy access to both the North & South Coast of Cornwall, where there are many golden sandy beaches to choose from.

We live on site and will be here to welcome you and hand over the key to Thyme cottage on arrival. If for any reason we are unable to be here to greet you, the entrance key will be placed within Thyme's individual key safe and the code messaged to you before your arrival.

One of us is generally around and we are happy to answer any questions you may have about the cottage or surrounding area either in person or via text.

What makes this property unique

Thyme Cottage Cottage is located within a designated 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty' (AONB) & is within a Dark Sky designated area. On a clear night the skies are literally dusted with bright silver stars creating a magical scene that nobody forgets in a hurry !

Guests can return to our lovely cottages at the end of a busy day exploring to relax & wind down in our pretty cottage gardens or in the cooler months, cosy up in front of the wood burning stoves installed in each cottage.

We have 1 acre of picturesque guest gardens for our guests to enjoy, with outside games such as swing ball, badminton & football goals. The one acre garden is family & pet friendly.

We are located just 2.5 miles from the award winning village of St Neot which has a farm shop selling locally produced meats, cheeses, cakes & bread plus a multitude of other products, a popular pub (The London Inn) which is pet friendly & the meals are superb! plus a Grade 1 listed church (St Anietus) known for it's historical significance & stunning stained glass windows.

The stunning coastal path can be accessed at many points around Looe and Polperro, or along the north coast near Padstow, Port Isaac or Boscastle. Many visitors like to visit the iconic Lands End which can be combined in the same trip to other prominent places in the far west such as St Michael's Mount. Beautiful sandy beaches are just a short drive away.

Locally there are many pet friendly, circular walks in moorland and river valley locations. Several pubs and restaurants are within a short drive offering a great choice of food to suit all tastes, from family & pet friendly to fine dining.
