Honeypin At Golant

Honeypin at Golant is a single-storey, two-bedroom cottage for four near the Fowey estuary, close to the village of Golant. Its own indoor heated pool and sauna are the standout features, rare for a cottage of this size in south Cornwall.

A king-size room and a bunk room share two bathrooms, a layout that suits a family better than two couples wanting matching rooms. Beyond the pool and sauna, the cottage has a wood burner, dishwasher, washing machine, EV charging point and a garden with a barbecue. There is no WiFi, so guests wanting to stay connected should check reception locally. Up to three dogs can stay.

An on-site bar opens on Fridays from March to October with free entry for guests, and occasional live entertainment adds to wet-weather options alongside the pool. Readymoney Cove is 2.5 miles away below St Catherine's Castle, Lantic Bay is 3.4 miles and Lansallos Beach 4 miles further along the coast. Golant itself sits on the Fowey estuary with a quay and the Saints Way path passing through; Fowey's restaurants and galleries are a walk of around 40 minutes south, and the Eden Project, Looe and Polperro all make realistic day trips.

Honeypin held a 4.7-out-of-5 rating from 23 holidaycottages reviews, with cleanliness, equipment, comfort and location all scoring 4. Rates start from £511 a night.

**Best for:** families wanting an indoor pool, sauna and EV charging, with room for three dogs.
