Chycoose

Chycoose is a ground-floor, single-storey cottage in Perranarworthal, sitting in the Carnon Valley between Truro and Falmouth. It sleeps 2 in 1 bedroom and has its own enclosed private garden, with access to the owner's larger surrounding lawns. The property is fully fenced. Dogs are not accepted.

The cottage has wifi, parking, dishwasher, and washing machine. The layout is all on one level, which suits guests who find stairs difficult. Changeover day is Friday. The cottage rates 4 out of 5 from 56 reviews, a larger sample than most one-bedroom lets in this valley carry, and one bathroom serves the single bedroom.

Trelissick Garden, a National Trust property on the Fal estuary, is roughly 3.1 miles to the south. Truro city centre is about 5 miles, with its cathedral, independent shops, and covered market at Lemon Quay. Falmouth - with its waterfront galleries and beaches - is around 6.2 miles. Castle Beach, the nearest of Falmouth's beaches, is 6.2 miles from the property.

Best for couples or solo travellers wanting a quiet rural base with easy access to both Truro and Falmouth. Less good for guests expecting a coastal location, as the nearest beach requires a short drive of around 6.2 miles.
