THE COTTAGE, Redruth

The Cottage in Redruth is a self-catering lodge with one bedroom and a separate living room across two levels. The property includes a private entrance, a garden-view terrace, and a walled courtyard for outdoor seating. A kitchenette with a washing machine, oven, microwave, and fridge supports longer stays without laundry concerns.

The lodge offers board games and puzzles, plus a designated smoking area outside. Guests receive tea, coffee, milk, and biscuits on arrival, with a booklet explaining the cooker and other appliances. Key access, smoke alarms, and fire extinguishers are fitted, and private check-in/check-out is available.

The Cottage sits on Redruth high street, a short walk from the train station, shops, pubs, and the Buttermarket food court. Carbis Bay is 23 km away, St Michael's Mount is 27 km away, and Truro Cathedral and Trelissick Garden are within reach. Newquay Cornwall Airport is 32 km from the property, and public parking is available nearby at a council car park.

Guests rate the property 10/10 for cleanliness, location, and transport links, with many noting the spacious two-level layout. Repeated visitors highlight the super-comfy bed, the real leather couch, and the excellent shower water pressure. The owner's quick responses and early check-in/late check-out flexibility receive frequent praise.

The cottage is adults-only, with steep stairs between the living area and the bedroom-bathroom floor. Guests with large suitcases often leave them downstairs due to the staircase width. The bathroom has separate hot and cold taps, and the bed is a double, not a queen, per some guest measurements.
