This peaceful studio-style cottage is one of two in a complex, surrounded by beautiful countryside where you can frequently catch glimpses of wildlife such as badgers, woodpeckers and foxes. The local village, Mount Hawke, which is within walking distance, has a few good amenities. Seaside towns and villages are just a short drive away, and from here you can enjoy exploring the tin mine ruins, valleys and beaches which make Cornwall so special. Within easy reach are so many stunning secluded beaches you need not visit the same twice. Other local attractions include Perranporth, Land’s End, The Eden Project, St Ives, Falmouth, Truro and numerous National Trust properties.

Bumble Down Studio is one of a pair of properties enjoying beautiful views for miles around.  On entering this single-level cottage you will find a bright and cosy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner/sleeping area. The lounge area, complete with TV, DVD and wood burner, is snug and affords a delightful countryside view. The kitchen is equipped with 2 ring hob, microwave grill, coffee maker and fridge. The dining area also looks out onto beautiful views. The accommodation offers one double bed; the skylights mean you can gaze at the stars on a clear night. There is also a shower room with double shower and WC.

Heading outside you will find an attractive and stylish sheltered patio area with garden furniture and BBQ, ideal for enjoying a lazy afternoon, looking for wildlife or watching the sun go down. There is also a secure area where you can store bicycles, canoes and surf-boards etc.

Dorothy and Paul were very welcoming. The cottage was very clean. The views are stunning and the location is perfect to explore the surrounding area. We had 3 rainy days during our week but other than that everything was as expected and excellent.
