The Old Rectory - Lanreath - 2 Bedroom (Sleeps 4) Apartment in Looe

Description

The Old Rectory is a fantastic collection of self-catering apartments in one of the most beautiful parts of Cornwall.

The historic Mansion House setting is surrounded by beautiful private gardens on the edge of Lanreath and 100 metres from the village shop. The apartments sleep between two to five guests. Depending on availability, they can be booked together to accommodate larger parties and are ideal for everyone from couples escaping for a romantic break, to families and extended groups of family and friends celebrating a special occasion. The swimming pool is available from end of May until end of August/early September (please check this year's closing date) and the games room all year round.
Lanreath is a friendly community with the village shop and post office set close to the village green.
Our village pub, the historic Punchbowl Inn is now open after extensive refurbishment and serves delicious food. It is within easy walking distance. The village also boasts the delightful and friendly Tipsy Cow, also within walking distance, for an evening drink with a view. We are just six miles from the fishing villages of Looe and Polperro, with a choice of safe beaches and dog friendly beaches locally.
The area is jam-packed with things to do whether you take your bucket and spade to build sandcastles and poke around in the rockpools on East Looe Beach or Millendreath Beach, or walk along the coastal footpath between Looe and Polperro, rewarding your efforts with an ice-cream or a cold drink at either end. Looe Island and the water around it are part of a designated Marine Conservation Zone. Regular boat trips run from the mainland between April and September, allowing visitors to see the resident grey seals and variety of birds. There is no shortage of local guides offering boat tours, and businesses where you can hire surfboards, paddle boards or kayaks.
Plants thrive in Cornwall's climate and there are lots of lovely places to enjoy their beauty. The Eden Project and the Lost Garden of Heligan are two of the best-known gardens in Cornwall, but you can also visit Trewithen, Trelissick, and the Duchy of Cornwall Nursery. The National Trust manages several stunning properties including Lanhydrock and Cotehele. Other top attractions in South- East Cornwall include, Porfell Wildlife Park and Sanctuary, Adrenalin Quarry and Port Eliot. Bodmin Moor is a special favourite and easily accessible. There is nothing nicer than a stroll around the Hurlers, Cheesewring and Goldiggings quarry, meeting moor ponies, sheep and cattle along the way and admiring the stunning views before a cheeky cream tea at one of the cares in Minions.
Staying at The Old Rectory gives you the best of both worlds - easy access to Cornwall's world famous beaches and attractions with the space, peace and grandeur of an historic country property to return to and relax.
