About this property
Nestled in the heart of the village of St Buryan in Cornwall, is this contemporary, semi-detached bungalow, 1 The Brambles. Within easy reach of Cornish gems, this stylish property is idyllic for a family or six friends and their pooch. On arrival, leave your vehicle in the off-road parking spaces before entering the hallway, where you can place your shoes and admire the hard wooden floor throughout. Stepping through the home, locate the shaker-style kitchen/diner, with an electric oven and hob for your self-catered stay and when meals are dished out, gather at the dining table and pour your favourite wine. Patio doors lead out to a rear enclosed garden, where your furry friend can stretch out their legs on the lawn and the group can enjoy an alfresco affair on the decking area to bask in the sun. As the evening cools, retire inside and relax your muscles in the bathroom with a long soak or rinse the day away in the walk-in shower. When you're ready to rest your head, choose between two doubles and a bunk bedroom to sleep, all with white-washed walls for a refreshing look. Wake up tired eyes out in the garden with a steaming cup of coffee in hand and discuss the plans for the day ahead. Just paces away from your holiday home, you will find a well-stocked convenience store to stock up on the essentials, or for fresh food there is St Buryan Farm Shop. History buffs will be thrilled with the surrounding landmarks, which includes the ancient Boscawen-Ûn Stone Circle and Drift stones or if that's not for you, unwind with a picnic beside Polgigga Duck Pond. Jump in the car to tour the picturesque scenery at Land's End, where you can burn off your dog's energy along the coast and embark on adventure to Penwith Heritage Coast for exceptional views. Nearby you'll find the world-famous open air Minack Theatre, which is carved into the clifftop with its sub-tropical gardens, offering stunning sea views across Porthcurno Bay. Visit the town of Penzance, steeped in history with its links to pirates and hosting Penlee House Gallery & Museum to learn about its past, as well as a long promenade to enjoy traditional fish and chips. For a blissful escape to Cornwall, getaway to 1 The Brambles.
St Buryan is a charming settlement in Cornwall's West Penwith peninsula, near to Lands End and the many stunning coves and beaches for which this magical part of the country is well-known.

All of your everyday needs are met thanks to a well-stocked friendly neighbourhood store and a favourite local bar. A fantastic travelling base for unforgettable vacations.

A lovely welcome from the neighbours who are mum and dad to Alison. The bungalow is very quiet, clean and has everything you need for a relaxing break. We look forward to returning in the future Kim, Alan and our cockerpoo Dillon

It is in a quiet location but near lots of the best parts of Cornwall. The beds were comfortable and we both slept really well, the dog loved the garden. The welcome basket was amazing with lots of essentials and treats. There is a lovely pub within a few minutes walk and we were made very welcome. The owners parents are next-door and made us very welcome. If we return to Cornwall we would book again.

The cottage is well equipped and very comfortable and the welcome pack and other little touches were lovely. The only issues we had was the patio door needs attention as it was very difficult to open and close and will no doubt cause a problem in the future and although the garden was a lovely sun trap the outdoor seating is so uncomfortable that we were not able to sit out for long which was a shame. The shower was lovely but a shower caddy would be a useful addition especially for older visitors. We would definitely recommend the property to others and should we ever decide to revisit Cornwall we would not hesitate in rebooking.
