About the home

Aardvark Cottage is an 1805 Fisherman's terraced Cottage made of deep stone walls and a tiled roof. Rooms are small and quaint, but with GFCH and gas open fire. There is open joist ceilings and a small newly fitted kitchen offering all that one will need. There are deep window sills and wooden sash windows. There is a bath and shower.

The cottage has a small court yard garden, and a small upper garden. The property is extremely well located being in the heart of the small town of Penryn, and near to Falmouth and Truro. It has a nearby train station feeding to these towns and on to London, and many bus stops close by, so no car is necessary. There is ONLY car parking on the road. There are spaces outside of the front door but this is public parking so no gaurantees. The town has other parking on the roadside and carparks.

The area has raw beauty and many fabulous golden beaches within a short journey. There has been much development of the town. There is a nearby Marina, Maritime Museum, and busy sailing Clubs close by.

The West Country / Cornwall region

This is Penryn, Falmouth, Cornwall. The area has been here since the 16th Century when the mail Packet ships were based here delivering mail around the world. The sail shop for these ships is still here, but recently developed. The town has recently had the Exeter University Art college arrive, together with other annexes making the town become alive with student life too.

Penryn was the main port until the estuary silted up early in the 19th century. The ships became bigger and Falmouth grew into a major port.

Cornwall is the furthest south west county, and is thus warmer that the rest of England. It has many beautiful coves and Sea Estuaries, fabulous Gardens, and many palms. There is a strong sea fayreing community and many activities through the summer a scheduled in the harbour.

The Falmouth / Penryn area

This is Eden Project accommodation being only 50 mins away by car. This Bio environment is now a world renowned visiters tourist attraction that cannot be missed.

The Minack Theartre is 50 mins to the west. This open air handmade stone carved theartre was built by one lady over her life time ! A truly incredible acheivement ! It has live open air shows during the Summer months so take a bottle and have an evening that you will remember for a life time !

St Ives and Carbis Bay - 50 mins to NE. This quaint thriving seaport is absolutely delightful ! The Tait Art Gallery is based here.
