Why they chose this property
Hello, thank you for looking at our cottage.! We have been open since June 2021 and have had nothing but delighted guests. The cottage is clean, warm, comfortable and well equipped. The photos show glimpses of the river, but the views from all of the bedrooms and the lounge are beautiful. There is a purpose built covered BBQ area with gas BBQ and firepit to ensure that whatever the weather you can dine al fresco. The cottage is in a perfect location for exploring Cornwall, away from the hum drum of the busy costal locations yet 5 minutes from Truro and it's mainline train station. 30 minutes to the North Coast and 30 mins to the South Coast - metres from stunning river walks and the very welcoming Heron Inn.
What makes this property unique
Peace and quiet, covered garden areas, EV charging point, air sourced heating and free parking - oh and the all important, superfast broadband.
We would love to welcome you to Sanctuary Cottage and we are sure that you would enjoy your stay.
