About this property

Pretty Georgian farmhouse in peaceful village location near the sea.

Pretty detached cottage dating from the 1800's. It has a pretty and enclosed south facing garden with a sunny aspect which is great for barbecues or just sunbathing in peaceful surroundings. There are stunning views overlooking Mount's Bay and on towards the Lizard. The interior is tastefully furnished with plenty of original artwork on the walls.

There are two main reception rooms - one with a great wood-burner for winter evenings. The kitchen is fully fitted with ample crockery and cooking equipment. Upstairs there is a bathroom with toilet, sink, bath and shower facilities, one double bedroom, one twin bedroom and a small single room. All the bedrooms enjoy spectacular views. A well-behaved dog is welcome. A travel cot is available on request. For more guest comments from the visitors book and emails received by me after visitors have had their holiday go to 'about the owner'

Please note: Sancreed has no shop or pub . The nearest would be in Newlyn or St Just c 3 miles away.
Although the front garden and driveway are level, there are some fairly steep steps up to the lawned garden.

we accept bookings for 7 days , or 14 days or 21 days

An oasis of peace and countryside charm
This property is just wonderful - it's cosy, so comfortable, beautifully decorated and with all conveniences. The garden is lush and secluded, and was also secure for our wee dog. The views to the sea in the distance were fabulous, and the abundance of wildflowers around us was lovely. The house is situated in the countryside - BUT - is incredibly close to all the best places on the Lands End penninsula: Sennen and Porthcuno beaches, Mousehole, Penzance, St Michael's Mount, St Just - all just a very close drive (less than 20 minutes). You can enjoy these places and then get away from it all to the farmhouse. My only downside was having to come home to London afterwards! Can't sing enough praises - enjoy yourselves here!

Lovely cottage!
We really enjoyed the cottage. The location is great for walks and some main tourist attractions in the south. We were missing a loungeset so you can relax outside in the lovely garden (there is an iron two set + an older bench).

Amazing!
The Farmhouse is absolutely stunning, it had everything we needed for a more than comfortable stay. Beautiful surroundings and we wish we had stayed for 2 weeks as there was so much to do! We visited Mousehole, St Michaels Mount, Penzance, Trewidden Gardens, Sennen Cove, Lands End, Marazion but there was so much more to still see and you can easily go into a second week of trips. I highly recommend you stay at this property, not only a home from home but it was one of the best holidays I have had in ages. Thank you Lindsay for a A++ accommodation, I am sure we will return one day!

Cosy pleasant cottage with lovely garden
Great cottage and garden. Well equipped. Internet good. Pity local walks were overgrown but hopefully local council will sort that out. Needed to use the car a lot to get anywhere. Highlight was The Minack Theatre which is nearby. Weather unfortunately mixed but can imagine if good would be wonderful.

Peaceful holiday cottage in perfect location
We had a lovely stay at Newington Farmhouse in April - the cottage is well equipped and comfortable, and in a perfect location. The majority of the popular local attractions are less than 20 minutes away. The surroundings were very peaceful, and full of wildlife. One point worth noting is that there are a few steps and walls in the garden which may be less suitable for very young children, but this is a minor point. Overall, very happy thanks!

Very cosy cottage
Amazing views, bed very comfortable , excellent shower, well equipped kitchen. Our springer spaniel is normally anxious when we first take her somewhere new but she was settled from the beginning which says it all. Lovely ambience.

A wonderful stay in Cornwall
We had a lovely time at Newington Farmhouse. The cottage was cosy, comfortable and well-equipped. The garden was a delight, with great views across the fields to Mounts Bay. Sancreed itself is a fascinating village; as well as some lovely local walks it is also an ideal base for exploring the West Penwith area of Cornwall with its stunning coastline and hidden coves. Our two cats enjoyed staying at the cottage as well. We would definitely choose Newington Farmhouse again.

Excellent stay at lovely cottage
We stayed in this cottage for a week in October, from the moment you walked into the porch area it had a homely feeling, the cottage as a whole was very clean and had everything we needed for an easy relaxing stay. The garden was brilliant for our boys and well maintained. Location wise is set on the edge of the village in a very quiet location but within easy reach of the local bigger towns. Would definetly recommend staying here for a peaceful country Cornish break

Comfortable & quiet
The cottage was perfect for our needs. Rural location, very quiet and great views across farmland to the sea. Comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, private garden & good sized lounge/diner. Location was ideal for the beaches at Sennen and Portcurno, walks around Cape Cornwall, Penlee, Lamorna and only 10 mins drive from supermarkets in Penzance. We’ve already booked again for 2021.

About the host

Hosted by Lyndsay Newman

Host profile image
We live in Bristol and work in a rural craft business in Somerset. I also work as a part-time community worker in Somerset. Our daughter now lives in Cornwall too as does my Mum who has been here over 30 years. We enjoy spending as much time as we can at our cottage, walking, cycling, and visiting friends and family.

Why they chose this property

We both holidayed in Cornwall as children and my family moved to West Penwith over 30 years ago. My mother lives in a nearby village. The sense of peace in Sancreed is magical, the views from the house are spectacular, and the surrounding area and beaches are wonderful. We can be at the beach in 10 minutes but also pop into Newlyn to stock up on fish in less than 10 minutes. We fell in love with the cottage when we saw it. It suits us perfectly.

What makes this property unique

The cottage gets flooded with light most of the day. It is south facing with great views. The rooms are attractively decorated with some original artwork on the walls. We love the gardens which surround the cottage too. The lane is so quiet you are far more likely to see a walker/cyclist/horse than a car!
