Dog-friendly St Erme cottage, 10.8km from Perranporth. Private garden

Sunlight Cottage is a single-storey two-bedroom property set in the village of St Erme, a rural hamlet a few miles east of Truro. It sleeps four across a double and a twin room, with 1 bathroom and an enclosed private garden. Dogs are welcome. The property is on one level throughout, making it accessible for guests with mobility considerations. No dishwasher.

This is an inland location - the closest beach is Perranporth, 6.7 miles away, a 1.9 miles stretch of Atlantic-facing sand that draws both surfers and families. Great Western Beach in Newquay is around 7.5 miles in the other direction. Truro city centre, with its cathedral and covered market, is under 6.2 miles to the west. The Eden Project is around 11.2 miles.

The property includes a washing machine, Wi-Fi, and off-road parking. There are 4 reviews from previous guests. The flame-effect wood stove in the living area adds warmth in cooler months. Saturday changeover.

This cottage suits couples or small families who want a quiet rural base in central Cornwall and are comfortable driving to the coast rather than walking. It works well for those splitting time between north and south Cornwall, or combining beach days with a visit to Truro or the Eden Project. It is not the right choice for guests who prioritise beachside access, multiple bathrooms, or a dishwasher.
