Three Chapel Cottages is one of a group of four listed cottages in a conservation area on the edge of St. Tudy village. Built around 1820, these cottages have now been charmingly restored. A wealth of features such as exposed beams, polished slate floors and small paned windows add to their charm and Cornish character.
The sitting room has a comfortable suite, dining furniture, wall lights, prints and a digital freeview television. The floor is in original polished slates with loose rugs and there is an attractive smaller fireplace built over the original one. There is also a window seat in the sitting room and main bedroom.
The fitted kitchen has a full size cooker, microwave, refrigerator, and washing machine. There is a plentiful supply of cooking and serving utensils, wine and spirit glasses, and matching dinner and tea service.
The two bedrooms have fitted carpeting - all with some period furnishings. The larger bedroom has a double and a single bed and the smaller bedroom has two singles. All bed linen is supplied and beds made up ready for your arrival.
The downstairs bathroom has a bath with overhead shower. The immersion heater supplies hot water to the bathroom and kitchen.
Heating is by fan and convector heaters with four storage heaters available on request. All electricity except storage heating is metered through a coin meter.
St. Tudy is an attractive village between the moor and the sea and well situated for walking, touring and visits to the beaches.
The village has a shop and post office and the 300 year old 'Cornish Arms' is a freehouse providing meals. St. Tudy is the village where 'Captain Bligh of the Bounty' grew up, being born at nearby Tinten Manor.
The North Cornwall coast is renowned for its impressive cliffs and steep valleys leading to sandy coves and bays. There are excellent large sandy beaches at Trebarwith, Polzeath and Daymer Bay. The coastal footpath is protected over long stretches by the National Trust.
Visits can be made to Pencarrow, a large Georgian house still privately owned or Lanhydrock House, a 17th century manor house owned by the National Trust. You may also wish to visit Tintagel Castle romantically associated with King Arthur.
Cornwall's rich heritage includes remains from the Neolithic, Bronze and Iron Ages, early Christian monuments, and remains of the once great tin and copper mines.
The Eden Project is within easy distance.
The nearby Camel Trail has replaced the old railway line as far as Padstow and provides a quiet and scenic route for walking and cycling.
