Beach Road- short walk to Charlestown, Carlyon Bay & coastal paths- dog friendly

A three-bedroom dog-friendly cottage on Beach Road in Carlyon Bay, set on Cornwall's sheltered south coast east of St Austell. The property comes with a wood burner and a private garden - a useful combination for off-season stays when the coastal paths are quieter and the Eden Project runs its seasonal festivals.

Inside, the cottage has a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher and washing machine, plus WiFi throughout. The living room centres on the wood burner, and the accessible layout makes the ground floor manageable for guests with mobility needs. Three bedrooms accommodate a family or small group comfortably.

The garden has an outdoor seating area with furniture and a dining table, giving dogs and their owners space after a walk. Crinnis Beach is roughly a 17-minute walk from the front door, and the South West Coast Path connects the bay to Charlestown - a 45-minute clifftop walk west through woodland, ending at the Georgian harbour village known for its tall ships and Poldark filming locations.

Carlyon Bay sits within easy reach of mid-Cornwall's major attractions. The Eden Project is about 3.7 miles away, the Lost Gardens of Heligan roughly the same distance, and Charlestown's harbour is walkable along the coast. Free private parking on site removes the hassle of competing for spaces during peak season.

Best for dog owners or guests with mobility needs, thanks to the accessible ground floor and wood burner. Less good for a beach-at-the-door stay - Crinnis Beach is a 17-minute walk, not right outside.
