Beautiful Home in Heart of Truro | House in Truro, United Kingdom

Summary:
Style and serenity reign supreme at this stunning cottage in Truro’s leafy suburbs. Surrounded by trees and with views of greenery from every room, feel your shoulders drop as you submerge in nature. Despite its quiet surroundings, you’re still a 10-minute walk from the town centre with the north and south coasts also a short drive away. In summer, enjoy sun-drenched barbecues and alfresco feasts in the decked garden, with the handy addition of an outdoor heater and a freestanding wine cooler!
The Space:
Step inside to discover interiors that are reminiscent of Scandinavian cabins, with stylish elements of hygge gracing every corner. Large, black framed windows frame leafy views and allow light to flood in. Taking beauty in simplicity, this is an uncluttered sort of home where natural woods and rich textures blend together in harmony. Slip off your shoes and snuggle into the cream linen sofa with a book in one hand and a glass of wine in the other. Get a fire roaring on cooler days and settle in for the night with a classic board game or a film on the Smart TV. During the warmer months, fling open the floor-to-ceiling French doors and relax to the gentle hums of wildlife.
The open-plan kitchen has a distinctly industrial feel with plywood cabinets and local granite worktops. Rustle up locally sourced fish dinners or hearty brunches using the ample amenities; there’s a coffee machine too so make the most of your slow mornings. Much care and creativity has gone into making this a truly memorable home that offers the best experience: from hand-thrown ceramics to unique wooden benches and thoughtful homely touches throughout.
Two bedrooms sleep 4 guests comfortably. The master boasts a king-size bed topped with luxurious bedding and stylish furnishings. Meanwhile, the en-suite bathroom oozes calm and tranquillity with a contemporary double-ended bathtub and monochrome fittings. The second bedroom has a double bed and elevated views, whilst the uplifting beachy feel will certainly make it hard to peel yourself away in the morning. The second en-suite features a shower unit, plus there is an additional WC downstairs. Free parking is available on the driveway for one vehicle.
Coachman’s Cottage is located in the leafy suburbs of Truro, so you can ensure there will be plenty of peace and quiet to relish. That said, you’re just a short 10 minute walk to the town centre where you will find ample amenities and the impressive Cathedral and Victoria Gardens.
Truro is known as Cornwall’s county town and sole cathedral city – offering just the right dose of urban life in a laid back way. There is lots to discover: from beautiful parks with yoga pop ups, to independent shops and impressive restaurants (please see our guest guide for our personal recommendations).On Wednesday’s and Saturday’s, don’t miss Truro Farmer’s Market down on Lemon Quay, which is also home to Truro Food Festival during October.
The Truro River runs through the city, and then joins onto the River Fal before flowing out into the Carrick Roads, the estuary. Carrick Roads is home to many picturesque creeks and inlets, and is a haven for wildlife. Beautiful walks can be enjoyed all around Restronguet Creek, with our particular favourite stretch being from Flushing to the wonderful Pandora Inn - one of the prettiest places for a pint this side of the Tamar. Between April and October, you can pick up a cruise between Truro’s harbour and Falmouth. Admire the scenery as you sail through the AONB of the River Fal, or enjoy a spot of watersport (the flat waters are perfect for this).
One of the highlights of Truro is its position to both the north and south coasts. The St Agnes Heritage Coast is just a 20 minute drive from the cottage, boasting stunning expanses of beaches, iconic wheal houses and clifftop walks. Trevaunance Cove is particularly popular with surfers, and is backed by the fabulous Schooners restaurant for a post-dip pint at sunset! Nearby you also have Perranporth Beach and Porthtowan - both offering good swimming and surfing opportunities. To the south of the cottage, you will find the stunning Roseland Peninsula which is a welcome alternative to the north coast. Untouched, wild and peaceful, discover secret beaches and crystal clear coves (many of which are quiet even during the summer months). Hikers can also pick up the South West Coastal Path which runs the entire length of the coastline, with opportunities to spot seals and birds of prey!
Garden lovers will be in paradise as this part of Cornwall is home to some of the best and lesser-known establishments in the county. Trelissick House and Gardens are positioned in a spectacular location with stunning views looking over the Fal River and towards Falmouth. Spanning over 400 acres of parkland, discover their large collection of hydrangeas, camellias and rhododendrons together with sub tropical plants. No trip to Trelissick is topped without a visit to the nearby Secret Cupboard & Tea Garden where you can enjoy a quaint lunch right on the water’s edge. Other highlights in the area include Enys Garden as well as Tregothnan, a country house and estate which dates back to the 14th century. The historic gardens and arboretum are the largest in Cornwall, and are available to visit by appointment only. It’s home to rare and endangered trees from around the world, as well as the world’s only surviving travelling greenhouse.

Getting Around:
Due to the remote nature of Cornwall, we would recommend bringing a car to make the most of your stay here. There is free private parking for one vehicle on the driveway, plus on-road parking nearby.
Truro's central location means it has good connections with the rest of the county. You can catch buses to all corners from the city centre, plus there is a train station with regular services running to Exeter, Bristol and London Paddington.
Other Things to Note:
The cottage has private parking on the driveway. However, it is reached by a tight lane where other residents have a right of way on the lane and on occasion may temporarily park there. This should not cause you any issues as it is a friendly street and they will happily move to let you out. The lane is tight and bends so we find reversing in the best option. Please be aware it can get muddy in poor weather and may not be suitable for all vehicles, if you have any concerns please check with us before booking.
The BBQ is available for use from April to October.
Interaction with Guests:
We will be available via message, email and phone during your stay. Any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch!
