Argus Cottage in Pendeen Lighthouse, Cornwall, South West England

Argus Cottage, Pendeen Lighthouse, Cornwall, South West England

Sleeps 3
Weekly prices from £233

Self catering accommodation in Pendeen Lighthouse sleeps 3.

Features include: • Pet friendly • Romantic Breaks • Close to the Beach • Close to the Sea • Cottage Sleeps 3

Accommodation overview:

Argus Cottage details

In association with Trinity House, Rural Retreats is pleased to present Argus Cottage at Pendeen Lighthouse. Pendeen Lighthouse lies six miles north of Land's End and two miles from St Just. The lighthouse was established in 1900, electrified in 1926 and automated in 1994.

Argus (with accommodation for three guests) is one of two holiday cottages available at the lighthouse and has a dramatic location on a granite headland on the North Cornwall Coast within an SSSI and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The South West Coast path passes round the headland, passing through part of Cornwall's oldest mining areas. Sandy beaches at Whitesand Bay and Gwynver are close by.

You may be lucky enough to spot seals on the rocks below the lighthouse headland, as well as a variety of seabirds. With banks of seasonal pink thrift and golden gorse, the headland is a perfect location to watch the sun setting over the Atlantic.

You are reminded that Pendeen Lighthouse is an operational lighthouse and there is an electronic fog signal that operates automatically; ear plugs are provided in case conditions are misty.

While the cliff edge is protected by a 4' high wall, for safety we would ask that children must be supervised at all times.

Access roads to some of the lighthouse sites are narrow with limited passing places and, dependent on the season and site, there is the possibility of overhanging vegetation due to cutting restrictions during bird breeding seasons or other environmental reasons.

Guests should be aware that the lighthouses and equipment need regular and sometimes emergency maintenance. Therefore visits by maintenance staff may occur at any time during the year. However, staff will do their best to ensure guest privacy at all times.

Wildlife is in abundance and there are numerous footpaths and winding country lanes to explore, lined with a glorious display of wild flowers throughout spring and summer.

The Old Mill in Millook, Cornwall, South West England

The Old Mill, Millook, Cornwall, South West England

Sleeps 4
Weekly prices from £336 to £ 695

Self catering accommodation in Millook sleeps 4.

Features include: • Garden • Pet friendly • Open Fire or Woodburning Stove • Close to the Beach • Short Breaks • Cottage Sleeps 4

Accommodation overview: A wonderful 17th Century character cottage, formerly a water millhouse, just yards from Millook beach, where sheer cliffs tower above the pebbled beach and small rock pools are revealed at low tide.

Set in a large grassy paddock with a stream running parallel to it, the front door opens into an entrance lobby with an adjacent simple kitchen and pantry area, and in one corner a 4 step ladder leads up to a cabin style children's bedroom with a little window overlooking the 38 ft mill wheel. Two steps up from the kitchen lead to a traditionally furnished cosy beamed living room with a large fireplace and remains of a cloam oven, simple white washed stone walls and a dining area with peaceful views over the garden.

To one side, a heavy carved door salvaged from a shipwreck in the 1800s leads to an additional smaller sitting room with comfortable seating and views of the sea. A bathroom W.C. with vanity basin and shower over bath can be reached via a few steps down from the living room, and an open tread irregularly shaped staircase leads directly up to the master attic bedroom with a 4ft 6inch double bed, a cross beamed ceiling, calming sea views and an extra single chair bed for alternative sleeping arrangements.

The renovated 3 ton mill wheel operates twice daily as an essential part of its preservation. The elderly or infirm may find the low curving beams, uneven floors and stairs a little difficult, and due to the proximity of the running water, toddlers will require supervision in the garden.

The nearest pub is 1.5 miles, and the spectacular sands of Widemouth Bay with a small grocery store are 2 miles away. Crackington Haven is about 5 miles and Bude 6 miles.

Please note:
No TV reception.  Not suitable for children under 8 or children/adults requiring supervision.
