    “What an amazing cottage.”

    Loved all the quirky bits including the telephones. Such cool decor and well thought out. After 25 years of holiday cottages/apartments/lodges etc in the UK this is probably in the top 3. Highly recommended. Matt and Dan are great guys and of course we can't not mention Sausage the cat. Thank you for everything. We look forward to returning as soon as we can.

The property

A breathtakingly beautiful cottage, resting in a desirable position for a countryside escape to Cornwall, Elvan Cottage makes a fantastic choice for couples or a group of four.

A stone-built Cornish cottage, the properties name derives from its unique Elvan stones at its exterior, adding to the wonder of this characterful cottage.

Step inside to be met by the contemporary wonder of the open-plan living space, boasting original quirky features such as exposed stone, high vaulted ceilings, beams, original oak barn doors alongside an eclectic mix of impressive smart devices and stylish decor, this property is a true delight of a holiday home.

Spend evenings in front of the Smart TV in the sitting area, or gather around the breakfast bar and raise a glass to your special celebrations, while the chef of the group makes the most of the good range of utensils and appliances at hand, the Google Nest being the perfect assistant for trying out any new recipes.

Also on the ground floor you can find the WC, carrying on the quirky character of the cottage with its resin floor boasting coins from around the world, while the sparkling shower room can conveniently be found on this floor too.

The first of the two beautifully-presented bedrooms can be found on the ground floor, a super-king-size which can be a twin on request, access this room via the charming stable door to be met by a tasteful interior and your own Smart TV, while the king-size room also with a TV can be found up a few stairs to the first floor.

Each room and even the outside area benefits from genuine antique telephones, so you can easily contact the rest of the group no matter where you are on this stunning site.

Enjoy some time beneath the sun on your private terrace as you dine alfresco each evening, and be sure to explore the wonder of the shared garden, home to a bar, barbecue and a hot tub, this cottage boasts all you could need and more for a fun-filled retreat.

Sitting on the outskirts of Liskeard, the property benefits from an extremely idyllic base, with the historic market town itself hosting a good selection of shops, pubs and restaurants to take your pick from, as well as the Stuart House heritage museum being worth visiting to learn about the exciting past of the local area.

There's plenty of adventure to discover in the area too, with the Adrenalin Quarry at Menheniot being a particular delight with its rural quarry letting you clamber over rocks, whiz down zip lines and try out deep water swimming!

Venture into the imposing granite moorland of Bodmin Moor for a more leisurely day trip, with plenty of scenic walking routes where you can enjoy a picnic and magnificent sunsets, or take a trip to Looe for the day for a day beside the seaside, with its stunning beach, waterside eateries and all-around charming atmosphere.

The popular attractions of both the Eden Project and The Lost Gardens of Heligan can be reached via a moderate car journey, while all of Fowey, Bodmin and the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are well-worth exploring too.
