Brunnion Cottage

Brunnion Cottage is a single-storey cottage at Lelant Downs, part of a small barn conversion between Hayle and St Ives, sleeping 4 in 2 bedrooms. The maximum is four adults and one infant, and sleeping in the lounge is not permitted. All rooms are on the ground floor, and a wide, gently sloping paved path leads to it from the parking area. A private decked area sits to one side.

Inside, a double and a twin bedroom share a walk-in shower room. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and sitting area works as one space, with a dishwasher, Smart TV, and WiFi included. Outside, a rattan-furnished summer house sits off the decking alongside a dining table and a BBQ. Two cars park off-road, and up to two dogs are welcome with direct access to the enclosed garden.

Carbis Bay is 3 miles away - a Blue Flag beach with RNLI lifeguards in season and calm, sheltered water well-suited to families and paddleboarders. St Ives itself is a short drive or a branch-line train from Lelant Saltings station, giving access to four more beaches, the Tate gallery, and a harbour-side food scene. A farm shop and pub sit within 2 miles of the cottage.

**Best for:** Families or groups wanting everything on one level, dog owners wanting a rural base with easy reach of St Ives. **Less good for:** Those wanting to walk to the beach - the nearest shore is a drive away, and the village of Lelant Downs has limited on-foot amenities.
