“Lovely, comfortable, well equipped holiday home.”

Ideally sited for visiting Falmouth, the Lizard, Penzance, Land’s End, St Ives and all places between. Some lovely gardens to visit too.

“Fantastic cottage, beautiful setting, well equipped and a real home from home.”

This was our second time staying here and I’m absolutely sure we will return again. Lovely accommodation and location in all weathers!

- Heighway, June 2019
“Eldertree was a beautiful home-from-home property & fitted to a very high standard & spotlessly clean.”

The setting was so peaceful & quiet, lie-ins guaranteed & we'd definitely stay here again. A beautiful garden that catches the afternoon sun, perfect for an afternoon cuppa with a scone or two (spread the Cornish way obviously!).

- Ms Nicholson, May 2019
“We had a wonderful stay at Eldertree cottage.”

The house suited our needs perfectly, was beautifully presented and very comfortable (The DVD player played up a bit but it was a minor issue). We also found the location both pleasant and practical. We will definitely book again. The Grégoire family

“The cottage was brilliant, with plenty of space yet very cosy.”

It is very well located, close to the beaches, close to St Michaels Mount, nice pubs nearby. We really enjoyed our stay!

- Prof Wolf, December 2018
“Eldertree is a lovely cottage with all the facilities you would require.”

the owner Cathy was very welcoming on arrival. We arrived in the early evening and were met at the cottage. Cathy was very friendly and once we were settled in, we were able to explore the surrounding areas at leisure. We even had the pleasure of seeing a neighbour bring out his steam engine. A beautiful sight. With Praa Sands beach just a few minutes drive from the cottage, it was an ideal location. We even managed to walk across the causeway to St Michaels Mount on Boxing Day. We have visited Marazion several time before, but never managed to get across to St Michaels Mount. Definitely a cottage we would book again.

- Mr Shah, December 2018
“Beautiful cottage, lovely welcome package, very comfortable and spacious.”

Owners very helpful, we left some stuff behind which they very kindly posted back to us. Would go back there again. Thank you.

- Ms Mccann, October 2018
“Best holiday cottage we've had.”

In fact it felt more like a home, with a welcoming tray of tea, coffee, Cornish cakes and apple juice and a welcome visit from Peter, our host, to see that all was well. So hospitable. The facilities couldn't be bettered and the house so spacious and comfortable. A great advertisement for Sykes.

- Mr Sones, September 2018
“Eldertree was a great property and gave us everything we needed to thoroughly enjoy the holiday and we would recommend it to anyone.”

On arrival we had treats and the owners were close by if we needed anything. The cleanliness was perfect and it was the ideal location to visit the areas we wanted to explore.

- Mrs Metti, June 2018
“Very efficient and helpful booking process.”

Eldertree Cottage was excellent and this is our second visit. We would have no hesitation in booking the property again in the future.

- Mr Woodhouse, June 2018
“Absolutely beautiful, home from home, holiday cottage.”

Stunning conversion with everything you could need for a lovely holiday. The decor is beautiful, garden stunning and it’s really well located to make the most of the peace and quiet without being more than a few minutes drive from sandy beaches and amenities. The owners are lovely and friendly and we didn’t want to leave! So much so that we’re already planning our return trip for next year!

- Heighway, May 2018
“Lovely comfortable house.”

Easy access to supermarkets, Land’s End and Lizard Point. Some beautiful gardens nearby.

- Mrs Carter, May 2018
“Elder tree was a very comfortable, very clean , spacious cottage.”

Although accessed via typical narrow Cornish roads, it was a lovely quiet place to stay, yet close to some beautiful beaches and coves. The owners provided some lovely extra touches such as freshly picked daffodils, percolated coffee, tea bags , saffron cake and a bottle of Cornish Elderflower Presse. It was nice to stay somewhere where the owner was available should you experience any problems, which we luckily didn’t. Having lived in Cornwall for many years since childhood, it was really pleasurable to stay in such a lovely cottage, quite the best we have experienced over the years since we moved to Suffolk.

- Mrs Humphries, March 2018
“Eldertree is a beautiful barn conversion.”

The owners had thought of everything and having 3 bedrooms all with facilities is must for different generations. The kitchen was well stocked and we loved the kitchen island a novelty for us. Lovely spacious bedrooms with comfy beds and loads of storage space. Very warm for our Christmas stay and the wood burner would have been a bonus but we were warm enough without it. Would love to stay again maybe in summer to enjoy the lovely garden. Thank you. X

The property

Within a five minute drive of sandy Praa Sands beach, this beautifully presented barn conversion with pretty country garden makes the perfect retreat for a family or gathering of friends, snuggled in a picturesque hamlet setting with absolute style and comfort guaranteed.

Praa Sands is almost on the doorstep, with restaurant/beach bar and surf school, a popular watery haven for swimmers and sun-seekers.

Golfers can enjoy a game on the 9 hole course and ramblers will delight at the seascapes viewed from the coastal footpath.

Eldertree boasts stylish reverse level accommodation with a haven of lofty ceiling and beams.

The welcoming sitting room on the first floor has a cosy wood burner.

Cook up a storm on the Range in the oak crafted kitchen and gather around the generous dining table with a cream tea or pasty.

After the day's adventures enjoy a soak or shower in one of the three bathrooms and recline in the comfy bedrooms; the master bedroom has a door to the patio and pretty, private, enclosed garden with a sunshiny lawn, ideal for children to play, barbecues or a glass of Merlot.

Eldertree sits in leafy Trescowe, just minutes from the stunning Cornish south coast.

The colourful harbour town of Penzance is a 20 minute drive away and the market town of Helston is even closer for all provisions.

Marazion, with its stretch of sandy beach around Mounts Bay has a myriad of galleries, gift shops, cafes and traditional inns.

St Michael's Mount, reached by foot across the cobbled causeway or ferry boat at high water makes for a great days exploration.

This part-time isle has a dinky harbour and gardens leading to the fortress at the peak.

Cream teas, pasties and refreshments can be savoured whilst watching kite-surfers ride the waves.

Visit St Ives on the Atlantic coast, a hot spot resort with excellent eateries, boutiques and galleries or explore the dramatic landmark attraction of Land's End.

About the location

PRAA SANDS

Marazion 4.5 miles ; Helston 6 miles ; Porthleven 5 miles

The village of Praa Sands sits on the south coast in between Helston and Marazion. Praa Sands is known for its mile-long sandy beach and excellent surfing conditions. There is a bar/restaurant overlooking the beach – the perfect spot for lunch with a view or sunset drinks – a Post Office and general stores, beach cafe with fish & chips, and a beach/surf shop stocked with everything you could need for a great day at the beach. Praa Sands is also home to a Golf and Country Club, from where the most wonderful sea vista can be enjoyed whilst you play. Just inland from the beach is Pengersick Castle, the tower of which dates back to the 16th century. It is said that Pengersick is haunted, and that the ghost of a monk has been seen wandering the grounds! The house at Pengersick is rumoured to be the birth place of John Carter, the self styled King of Prussia and a tunnel which leads from the house to the beach was apparently once used by smugglers.
