RosemerrynwoodRosemerryn and Rosemerryn Cottage are two separate holiday lets, which can also be rented together, set in seven acres of beautiful woodland. Some of the wood is naturally wild, but part, having once been cultivated, is graced with beautiful camellias and azaleas, and huge rhododendrons. There are well worn paths to follow, some made by badgers and foxes, down to the stream which borders the wood, and tumbles on through the valley past the pub, the Lamorna Wink, to reach the sea at Lamorna Cove. Here there is a small harbour beach, where you can enjoy a coffee and watch the divers heading off to explore the mysteries of the deep. Or, if you're feeling more energetic, you can follow the coast path; east, to the picturesque harbour village of Mousehole, or west to the boulder beach of St Loy. |
Standing in its own secluded garden, bordered by woodland, Rosemerryn Cottage comprises;

There is a comfortable sofa-bed in the lounge, and an extra bed or cot can be added to either of the bedrooms if required. The kitchen is equipped with electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge and washing machine.

to wander through all of Rosemerry's woodland, and of course to visit
the Fogou.

Boleigh Fogou Behind the house, almost buried in the wood if the Boleigh Fogou, considered to be one of the best remaining monuments of its kind in Cornwall. Found to be part of an iron-age site, this man made underground cave has survived pretty well intact for 2000 years. The word 'fogou' is derived from the Cornish word for cave - fogo - and indeed these fantastic constructions do not occur anywhere else in England. There is much debate about the original purpose of the fogou. Some believe they were ancient grain stores, others housing for cattle; but many people believe that the fogou contributed far more to the spiritual rather than the practical life of the community it served. It is thought that birth and death rituals were carried out in the fogou and that it was used for initiation and spiritual ceremonies. Now many people visit the fogou to experience for themselves the tremendous power it seems to hold, and feel the presence of the previous inhabitants of this ancient land. |
