The Copper House

The Copper House is a 1-bedroom cottage on a working farm near Truro, sleeping 2 with 1 bathroom. The cottage sits within an active farm setting, giving it a countryside feel that is different from most coastal holiday properties. The private garden looks out over surrounding fields.

Inside, the layout is straightforward with wifi, parking, dishwasher, and washing machine all included. The farm setting means some noise from livestock and machinery at normal hours is to be expected.

Truro city centre is a short drive for the cathedral, Lemon Street market, independent shops, and the Hall for Cornwall arts venue. Both coasts are within 20 to 30 minutes by car: Pendower Beach on the Roseland is 10.9km, and Perranporth Beach on the north coast is 11.6km. The Tregothnan estate along the Fal river - where England's only commercial tea plantation is based - is nearby. The Eden Project is about 20 minutes east.

This property suits a couple after a quiet mid-Cornwall base with easy access to Truro and day trips to both coasts. Less good for those wanting beach proximity or who prefer a coastal village setting.
