5 The Old Smokehouse

5 The Old Smokehouse is a cottage on Duck Street in Charlestown, 200 metres from the Georgian harbour and its moored tall ships. The property sleeps 5 in 3 bedrooms and welcomes one small dog.

A king-size bedroom with TV has an en-suite walk-in shower, and a double and single bedroom share the main bathroom with bath and shower over. A cloakroom with basin and WC sits on the ground floor. The open-plan living space has underfloor heating at ground level, with central heating throughout. The kitchen is well specified - electric oven, gas hob, coffee machine, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. A Smart TV, 2 additional TVs, Xbox and DAB Bluetooth radios provide entertainment, backed by fast WiFi.

An enclosed front garden has lawn, cushioned furniture and a Weber BBQ. Private parking fits one car. Charlestown Beach is 0.2 km away - a coarse-sand stretch beside the harbour, known for rock pools at low tide and as a Poldark filming location. Carlyon Bay is 0.9 km east, a longer sandy beach with watersports hire and a championship golf course.

Charlestown harbour, built in the 1790s by Charles Rashleigh, is the last intact 18th-century working harbour in the UK and part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Shipwreck Treasure Museum holds over 8,000 artefacts. St Austell is under 2 miles north, and the Eden Project is a 10-minute drive.
