Church town annex is very well appointed for Perranuthnoe beach, sitting above the main thoroughfare into the village, two minutes from the Victoria Inn.
We have been this to this village/beach many times in the past, loving the beach, which trends to be quieter than some others, so this time (July 19) decided to stay in the village.
The accommodation was very well equipped and beautifully furnished, there were a few minor issues, two blinds not working, the upstairs shower did not function correctly, thermostat being broken upon arrival. We also suggested a blind would be useful for the skylight in the master bedroom, during the summer, the whole room lights up at dawn, during the winter I’m sure it’s not an issue. There was no microwave during our visit, something for those with babies and young children to consider.
The courtyard and garage are very useful for boards, bikes, beach equipment etc, be aware that during peak months parking in the village is at a premium, so people park in front of the gate, making it very difficult to enter or exit in a vehicle, until they have moved.
The garden was lovely, overlooking the coast, a must for alfresco dining from breakfast til evening, or just to chill and read the paper.
A must for anyone who likes to walk, is a jaunt along the coastal path to Marazion, approx. 2 miles, so not far, my wife, I and two teenage daughters enjoyed it a great, with lunch at the end. You can easily walk to over to St Michaels Mount, we have done so any previous occasions, so not this time. Only ten minutes to Levant train station for the short train ride down to St Ives for a bite to eat in the evening. We only went out twice, as Perranuthnoe is the place we chose to chill out.
The cottage was beautifully furnished, Kathleen has made every effort to make it a home from home, trusting guests with various pieces of art around the property and pleasant furnishings.
We loved our holiday, as we always do, visiting Cornwall three weeks a year for the last 8 or so years. A special place!
