Carnbrea Cottage | Traditional miner's cottage in the heart of Cornwall by beautiful moorland

2 Bedroom Cottage in Carnbrea, Carn Brea

Situated at the foot of Carn Brea Moor with stunning views and moorland walks right on it's doorstep this traditional miner's cottage is the perfect home from home and great starting point for exploring Cornwall's North and South coasts. The rugged North Coast is less than 5 miles away and the beautiful coastal towns of Falmouth and St Ives are less than 30 mins by car.
The cottage is the ideal location for you if you'd like to explore lots of Cornwall in a short space of time as we're just 5 minutes from the A30 and centrally located ensuring nowhere is very far away!
It's a really light, bright and welcoming space with lots of lovely features including a granite fireplace with woodburner, wooden beams, stable doors and wooden floors. We live here when our work doesn't take us elsewhere so it feels very much like a home. We love it here and hope you will do too!
Living room:
A sunny and bright space accessed directly from the front door with a wood burning stove for cosy evenings in front of the fire. There is a double sofa and two armchairs to relax in.
Bedrooms:
There are two double bedrooms upstairs with wood floors - one at the back of the house overlooking the moor and a larger room at the front overlooking fields. The rooms are bright and tastefully decorated and furnished.
Kitchen:
The kitchen is well equipped with an induction hob, toaster, kettle, blender, electric oven, large fridge freezer and dining table with seating for up to 6. The cupboards contain all the equipment and tableware you need to dine in. We'll also provide the essentials such as salt, teabags, coffee, olive oil, sugar and all the other bits you don't particularly want to have to buy on arrival!
Bathroom:
Located at the top of the stairs is a bright bathroom with wood floors overlooking the moor with a bathtub with mixer tap and shower attachment.
Outside space:
There is a front south facing garden with lawn leading to the cottage and a back garden accessed from the kitchen which is on three levels with a paved & gravel area immediately outside the back door, a mezzanine gravel space and a lawn on the upper level. There is a Weber BBQ and table and chairs for outdoor dining.
There is also an outbuilding with a washing machine and tumble dryer.
There is off-road parking for two vehicles right outside the cottage.
Dogs:
Well behaved dogs are always welcome on the ground level of the cottage. Usually up to two dogs - please notify us beforehand.
Around and about:
We're just minutes from the A30 and very centrally located so nowhere is very far away. In under an hour you can be on the Lizard exploring Frenchman's Creek in a kayak, on a surf board at Watergate Bay or discovering the caves at Kynance Cove. We've put together our own personal guide for visitors based on fourteen years of exploration and detailing some of our favourite restaurants, beaches and hidden gems not to be missed!
If you don't fancy getting in the car you can pull on your walking boots and head out on the moor. There are paths to the top of Carn Brea where you can stand on giant granite rocks and see for miles or follow the Great Flat Lode trail - one of Cornwall's Mineral Tramway Trails which takes you on a 12km tour (on foot or by bike) of the disused mines of the county. You will pass South Wheal Frances and South Crofty mines as you head through some beautiful Cornish countryside.
Please be aware the cottage does have quite a narrow and steep staircase (with handrail) so may not be suitable for more elderly or less mobile guests.

Summary: Claire was amazingly helpful, it's a lovely space. The poor wifi signal was the only issue, but maybe a blessing if you are on holiday, sadly we were working!

Jolande S. Sep 2, 2023 05:00:17 AM

Summary: We selected this cottage because it is rather close to different parts of Cornwall. Due to the reconstruction of the major road to Cornwall it took a long time to get there, but once we knew we simply took smaller roads. We had some trouble finding it, but a quick phonecall to the owner helped us properly on our way.The cottage is well equipped and furnished. It has a small outdoors where you can sit. It sits along a fairly busy road and we did not like the traffic noice, but is close to many things and a few major supermarkets are at only about 1.5 miles from the cottage. It was spacious enough for the two of us, but it may feel a bit cramped when staying there with four adults.

Summary: All round very poor Go up one morning and fossil was off wall spiderwebs everywhere Cup’s dirty, bathroom dirty, bed covers had hair all over. Wouldn’t stay again

Stephanie L. Aug 27, 2023 06:00:05 AM

Summary: A lovely cottage, a perfect base for family holidays. Only down side we found was the noise from the road at the front of the property, but we would still happily stay here again.

Margaret D. Jun 17, 2023 09:00:03 PM

Summary: Great to come home to after exploring Cornwall

Kristina S. Aug 10, 2021 06:00:17 AM

Summary: We had a wonderful week in the cottage (2 adults and 2 children aged 3 and 6). The cottage is very clean and beautifully decorated, with a lot of attention to detail and beatiful art. There is a Webber BBQ in the garden which we used some evenings. The location of the cottage is perfect to explore Corwall. We went to a different attraction every day, mainly National Trust locations. Everything is very close. Overall, I would highly recommend it to families and would consider going back.

Summary: Nice little cottage, centrally located so ideal as a base for exploring southern Cornwall. It was well equipment, but we did miss not having a shower, but that’s just a personal preference. Communication with the owner was very good. We would definitely stay there again.

Summary: We had a lovely stay at Carn Cottage. The location is perfect for visiting all of our favourite places. Very clean and felt very safe given the current circumstances.

Kelly O. Oct 3, 2020 06:00:44 AM

Summary: I had an absolutely lovely stay at Carn Brea. The cottage is charming and very well-equipped. I cooked all my meals at home, and it was a great kitchen. The bed was comfortable, and luxuriating in the bathtub every night after some long days of hiking around Cornwall was just what I was looking for. The first night I was there I took the nearby public footpath up into the hills behind the cottage and walked along to the Carn Brea Monument. It was such a nice little ramble, and an unexpected bonus of my stay. I would definitely come back for another stay.

Gerald C. Aug 31, 2020 08:43:45 PM

Summary: Nice cottage, quite spacious property in excellent location to visit both coasts. Had everything you need for your stay and host was very friendly and communication was good. We found the cottage had lots of cobwebs especially on the large plant in the lounge but I guess that‘s to be expected in an older property. An iron would have been beneficial to complement the washing machine and dryer. A guest book would be nice so that guests can recommend places to visit and eat. All in all we had a lovely stay and would visit again.
