Gweal

Gweal is a single-storey cottage in Shortlanesend, a village roughly 3 miles north of Truro, Cornwall's only city. The property sleeps 4 with an all-ground-floor layout and an enclosed garden, making it accessible and practical for those wanting a quiet rural base near the county capital.

The cottage has 2 bedrooms - a king-size and a twin - both at ground level, along with a bathroom fitted with bath, walk-in shower, basin, heated towel rail, and WC. The open-plan living space combines kitchen, dining area, and sitting area. The kitchen has an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, and slimline dishwasher. Smart TV, Amazon Alexa, and Wi-Fi are included. The property does not accept children under 8.

Outside, an enclosed rear gravelled area has a picnic bench, and an enclosed front lawn with a bench provides additional outdoor space. Off-road parking for 2 cars is provided. The village pub is just 0.1 miles away.

Perranporth Beach - 3 miles of sand with The Watering Hole bar built directly on the beach - is 8.8km away on the north coast. Trevellas Cove near St Agnes, a rugged pebble cove popular for snorkelling and shore fishing, is 9.2km. Truro itself has the cathedral, Pannier Market, independent shops on Lemon Street, and a boat trip down the river to Falmouth.
