Set on a 72 acre working farm within the heart of the Roseland Peninsula, only a short distance from Pendower Beach, this well presented barn conversion is a very peaceful place to stay. It is within easy reach of Portscatho & St Mawes. Perfectly positioned for exploring the area, it is ideal for keen walkers with many footpaths around the farm. There is a footpath to Pendower Beach which takes about 20 minutes. Farm trails & animal feeding are available for children around the farm.
The cottage is one of 2 at Lower Penhallow Farm converted out of an old livestock barn close to the Owner's farmhouse. Both units look out across the gravel farmyard to beautiful countryside to the south. The farm is located out of earshot of main roads but you may hear the occasional tractor, postman or birdsong, and at night there is often a view of the night sky seldom seen in built-up areas.
Mallard Cottage is a reverse level property with the lounge & kitchen at first floor level. The lounge has a cosy little woodburning stove for cooler evenings and the kitchen is fully fitted. The bedrooms are at ground floor level.

The Roseland Peninsula is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and forms one of the finest sections of Cornwall's South Coast. From Mevagissey to St Mawes and bordered by the Fal Estuary to the west, the Roseland Peninsula has been drawing visitors for years with its splendid coastline, unique gardens, historic villages and superb sailing waters. A truly magnificent part of Cornwall, the Roseland Peninsula is a wonderful place to spend a memorable holiday. With The Lost Gardens of Heligan and The Eden Project in one direction and Falmouth and the National Maritime Museum in the other the Roseland is brimming with places to visit and things to do.
St Mawes Castle, built by Henry VIII in the 16th century sits on Castle Point at the mouth of the River Fal. At the top of St Mawes, Lamorran Gardens house a wonderful collection of tropical plants with lovely views down into the Harbour. St Just-in-Roseland has arguably the most photographed church in Cornwall. The 13th century church sits quietly tucked away on the edge of the creek. The Veryan Roundhouses are a must see, on the way to Nare Head, where you will find the most spectacular views of Gerrans Bay. The little village of Portloe nestles in lovely valley and is one of Cornwall's quintessential spots. Portscatho has a number of art galleries and many artists find the light in this harbour village inspires much of their work. The Roseland Inn at Philleigh is a 16th century pub just waiting for you to visit, as is the newly refurbished Smugglers Cottage at Tolverne, perfect for that afternoon Cornish Cream Tea, now run by Tregothnan Estate home to the UK's first tea plantation. The most popular thing to do though on the Roseland is simply to walk and enjoy some of Cornwall's most beautiful coastline.
Events on the Roseland reach fever point in August when sailing regattas, carnivals, fayres and fun days take place all over the Roseland and the waters of the Carrick Roads. It is a memorable place for many people who return year after year to enjoy the magic of this beautiful place.
| The cottage was beautiful - just as it had looked on the website. John and Vicky were the perfect hosts, and had taken care of every detail. They were thoughtful, kind and welcoming. The cottage was immaculate and easy to look after and, despite being very close to John and Vicky's house, it felt very private. |
