About this property

Perched in the popular coastal village of Flushing, Cornwall, is this fantastic three-bedroom, mid-terrace cottage, Widgeons Keel. Enjoying a prime position just moment’s away from the coast, Penryn River and the local amenities, Widgeons Keel is a superb pet-friendly dwelling for a group or family of six, plus their furry companion. Leave your car in the off-road parking space, before unloading your bags and making your way into your new home-from-home. Be welcomed into the spacious sitting room, where you can look forward to relaxing in front of your favourite films on the TV after a day of exploring, as your pooches snuggle up in front of the crackling woodburning stove. Whip up delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen, featuring a handy dishwasher, ready to enjoy at the dining table for six or alfresco out in the rear enclosed garden. Completing the ground floor is a cloakroom/utility for your convenience, housing a washing machine and tumble dryer, perfect for keeping your holiday wardrobe fresh! Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you can indulge in a soothing bubble bath or refreshing hot shower, before wrapping yourself in a toasty towel, courtesy of the heated towel rail. When sleep calls, choose from three well-appointed bedrooms to catch your rest in, a super-king-size and two twins. Explore the local village, where you will find the welcoming pubs and restaurants of The Royal Standard, The Harbour House and the renowned Waterside, where you can sample the freshest seafood whilst enjoying views over Penryn River. Pack up your swimming trunks, bathing suits and towels and head straight to Flushing Beach, where you can bathe, paddle the shores and picnic, an added bonus is that the beach is dog-friendly all year round too, so your four-legged friends don’t have to miss out on the fun! Within the village you will also find a well-stocked convenience store, providing hot soup at lunchtimes and cakes and pasties and pastries, and the Flushing Sailing Club, where you can immerse yourself in local life and watch the yacht racing. Just a short drive away in Mylor Churchtown, where you can try your hand at a selection of watersports, including paddleboarding and kayaking, hire a boat for exploring the scenery along the River Falmouth, embark on a fishing trip with Cornish Fishing or indulge in a tasty meal and crisp glass of wine in the waterfront restaurant of Castaways Wine Bar. Make the drive or take a boat from Flushing Harbour over to Falmouth, where you can explore the delights of Pendennis Castle, the National Maritime Museum and a selection of beautiful beaches; there is even easy access to the scenic South West Coast Path! All this and more awaits with a stay at Widgeons Keel.

At the western end of Cornwall's coast, Flushing is a charming seaside town. Falmouth is just over the Penryn River from the settlement of Penryn, which makes it an ideal starting point for a day of coastal exploration. With the port established by the Dutch in the 18th century and the Queen Anne style mansions erected by ship captains in the past, you can expect to witness lovely and unique architecture that is suitable for seeing at any time of the year. If you're looking for something a little more upscale, you may dine at the rnli Fitzroy Barometer, which serves as a reminder of the area's maritime past.
