    Nestled on the banks of the river Kenall, The Perran Foundry is a World heritage site that is over 200years old!. The Engine House as the name suggests was the beating heart of the foundry.

This open plan room has a large breakfast bar that opens into the modern fully fitted kitchen with integrated Bosch appliances. On the ground floor there is one of the double bedrooms and a stylish bathroom with bath/shower. Upstairs is the second bedroom with stunning en-suite. The house has under floor heating and is decorated to an extremely high spec with stunning antique and eclectic pieces.
    All bed linen and towels are provided.

A beautiful, interesting property on a lovely complex. Three of us spent two nights here. Basic things supplied such as milk and small amount of tea, coffee and sugar but be aware only one loo roll in each loo!Bus stop conveniently located outside the complex with good access to both Falmouth and Truro. We had a boiler problem with no hot water, but was resolved. The property is clean but dusty and cobwebby.
