Linden 44

Linden 44 is a two-bedroom cottage for four within St Mellion International Resort's 450-acre golf and leisure estate in east Cornwall. Both bedrooms have super-king-size zip-and-link beds that convert to twins on request, and each has its own en-suite bathroom.

A private garden and patio give outside space, with a barbecue and parking for two cars. Wi-Fi, a dishwasher and washing machine are included, and one dog is accepted. Guests can use the resort's three swimming pools, spa, sauna, fitness suite and two golf courses - the Nicklaus course, redesigned by Jack Nicklaus in 1988, and the Kernow course - plus the estate's on-site restaurant. There is no hot tub, sea view or EV charging point at the cottage.

Callington, about 3 miles northwest, has the nearest everyday shops, and Kit Hill, with its old mining chimney stack and views across Devon and Cornwall, is roughly 3 miles west. Plymouth is about 12 miles southeast, putting the cottage closer to the Tamar Valley than to Cornwall's coast.

The sea is a longer drive: Downderry Beach is 8.6 miles away, Whitsand Bay, 4 miles of surf sand on the Rame Peninsula, is 8.9 miles, and Kingsand Beach is 10.1 miles.

Three guest reviews rate Linden 44 4.4 out of 5, with host Joanne managing the booking.

**Best for:** couples or friends wanting flexible bed layouts, two en-suites and resort leisure facilities in one booking. **Less good for:** guests seeking a beach within walking distance, accommodation outside a shared resort, or space for more than one dog.
