Changeover day: Friday

Within easy walking distance to St. Anthony and the Helford River with their delightful sheltered beaches, it is ideal for both family holidays and walking holidays.

This self catering property is spacious and comfortable offering accommodation for 5 people. Facing south, it is extremely light and sunny and its elevated position ensures the pretty garden offers a tranquil spot for relaxing or eating outside.

Unusually for a holiday let, it has full central heating and an open log fire it is therefore ideal for breaks throughout the year.

Meadowbank offers a rare and peaceful haven and yet it is just a stone's throw from a quaint, thatched pub, the village church, famous for the fig tree growing in the wall of the tower and the convenient post office and stores. For those wishing to be spoilt, the popular and nearby bistro 'South' is an unusual asset in such a quiet village.

HELFORD ESTUARY

The small and picturesque village of Manaccan nestles in one of Cornwall's quietest and most unspoilt corners. A cluster of houses surround an ancient church with a shop, a pub and a bistro-cafe enhancing the little community. The village occupies a sunny and elevated position between the south side of the Helford River and the little creek that runs from the sea up to Carne.

Wooded footpaths lead from the village down timeless routes where 10 minutes walking will bring you to the water's edge at Carne and St. Anthony is a further stroll along the wooded lane. It is about 15 to 20 minutes down to Helford.

From Helford the section of the South West Coastal Path along the estuary to the sea should not be missed. Further paths upriver, including those to Frenchmans Creek are also certainly worth exploring. Tennis courts can be rented at a very reasonable rate at the top of the village and boats of all shapes and sizes are available for hire at St. Anthony and Helford. (It's best to book early for these during July and August).
