LOCATION

Shilbury Retreat Cottage will appeal to guests seeking a peaceful location in the heart of the countryside yet close to the North Cornish coast. The cottage is accessed along a quiet unmade country lane and stands in the grounds of the owners home with its own secluded garden and parking area. There are many miles of surrounding off-road tracks for the keen walker and cyclist and the coastal village of Perranporth three miles away can also be accessed on foot via a network of lanes and footpaths.

Perranporth itself offers a classic mix of shops, cafes and restaurants together with local golf and tennis clubs. Perranporth's spectacular beach is famed for its golden sands and rolling surf, coastal walks and the unique Watering Hole beach bar and restaurant.

From this central location in the County it is easy to join the A30 trunk road to visit the many other beautiful beaches along the north coast between St Ives and Padstow or, venture further afield along the picturesque south coast down to Lands End. The cathedral city of Truro is a few miles away with its mainline railway station and wide range of shops, galleries, pubs and restaurants.

We really did enjoy our stay . The owners were very pleasant and accepted our dog willingly . They were never intrusive . The only downside to this property was the rutted lane leading to it .and it took us a while to locate the place . Once found it was very a very pleasant location .

Our stay in beautiful Cornwall.
Great property in a quiet, secluded location, off the beaten track you might say. Only 10 minutes drive from Perranporth, 15 minutes from Newquay, great location. We would highly recommend it 👍
