The oldest house in Tywardreath, Grade II Listed Bluebell Cottage is pure chocolate box prettiness with white-washed walls hugged by an ancient wisteria. Perfectly located for touring Cornwall, this detached, cosy cottage is at the end of the village of tywardreath, Although retaining many authentic period features including low beams and lintels (mind your head in places) and cloam ovens in each fireplace, the cottage has been gently updated with modern facilities. we only do bookings for 7,14 or 21 day stays, and our changeover days are strictly, Saturday to Saturday, except over Christmas and new year, when they may be mid week, depending on when Christmas day and new years day falls,
The pretty, historic Cornish village of Tywardreath, meaning ‘The House on the Strand’, lies in the heart of Daphne du Maurier country and features in her book of the same name. St Andrew’s, the village church, is said to have the best peal of bells in the area, The church in Tywardreath, St. Andrew’s, was built in 1347. There is also a Methodist Church, a small chapel on Well Street which dates from 1828. while the village has a lively community, centred round its excellent pub and range of shops. There are several safe, sandy beaches close to the village, with a variety of water sports and leisure activities available. Par, a small, china clay port with a sandy beach is a fifteen minute walk from the village or 5 minutes in the car, home to a main line railway station.
the magnificent Eden Project is definitely one to add to the activity list with its fascinating giant tropical and Mediterranean biospheres. To experience the unspoilt charm of Cornwall, pull on your walking boots and enjoy the many idyllic picnic spots found in its wild and wonderful coastline, or its beautiful, tranquil countryside. as well as the secluded coves and picturesque fishing villages of Fowey, Looe, Polperro and Mevagissey. Keen golfers will be in their element with four championship courses including Carlyon Bay, St Austell and Porthpean just a short drive away. Other attractions and places of interest accessible from here include, Charlestown with its Tall Ships, the Saints Way Pilgrim Trail, The Lost Gardens of Heligan, and numerous National Trust properties and gardens,, Facing south, Par Sands Beach benefits from long hours of sunshine. A wide expanse of sand hugged by rows of dunes, Par Sands lends itself perfectly to days out by the sea. Popular with families, the beach has a very gently sloping shelf so the water remains shallow for quite a while. Parking is available behind the beach.
