Holly Cottage, 2 The Woodland Collection, Bosence Road, Townshend, Hayle, TR27 6AL

Holly Cottage is an absolutely amazingly dog welcoming retreat situated in the narrowest part of the UK, where you can so easily reach both the stunning North and South coasts just a tiny 10 minutes away by car.    It is set in the heart of the UNESCO World Mining Heritage Site.  With so much to do and see (think pristine sandy beaches, unforgettable walks along the breath-taking Southwest Coastal Path or experience the exhilarating off-road adventure of the nearby West Kernow Way or Bissoe Trail cycling routes.

But the cherry on the top of your Victoria Sponge is what you can experience at Holly Cottage without going anywhere!!  With a fully enclosed garden, a warm water outdoor dog shower, BBQ, two dog exercise paddocks on site, wildflower meadows, and enchanting woodlands to explore. There is a new hardcore pathway to make our ponds and woods more accessible for wheelchairs and pushchairs.

There is also 36 acres of land to explore (so plenty of opportunity for walks from the doorstep)

Richard and Helen are the third generation of the family to live and work at Sunrise, and they are keen to share this beautiful landscape with guests and their families. As they are passionate about wildlife and conserving nature for future generations, Helen says ‘It’s a pure joy to welcome our visitors to this little slice of Eden’.

The middle of nowhere and the absolute centre of the universe!

Cottage Details

When you arrive

There are two allocated spots right outside the gate for Holly Cottage, but should you have more cars, do let us know as there are more spaces on request. The garden is fully enclosed for dogs once you have got the dogs out of the car and into the patio garden.

Downstairs Open Plan Kitchen and Living Area

Lots of natural light floods in downstairs from the wide double French doors from the patio garden and dual aspect windows in the kitchen and living area, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor spaces, and offering a constant connection to the surrounding countryside.  There is also eco- friendly LED lighting which can be dimmed for ambient lighting in the evening.

The hand- crafted English leather sofas were purchased locally in Penzance at the multi-generational family run Alfred Smith & Sons, along with all the Hypnos beds, curtains and carpets  combining both comfort and practicality for our dog loving eco conscious community of guests.

The lounge area complete with a 43 inch Smart TV (with Netflix and YouTube pre-programmed.  Please input your own userid and password to access) and remote control fireplace is the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring. The granite topped kitchen is fully fitted with appliances including a ceramic hob and dishwasher with a separate laundry room with a washing machine and a downstairs bathroom (wetroom).

Upstairs

Continuing the stylish theme running throughout, upstairs, there are three bedrooms upstairs.  The master suite is finished in a neutral palette to ensure a blissful night’s sleep with a Juliette balcony with stunning views down across the valley.  It has a king bed

The en-suite shower room has a heated towel rail, underfloor heating, and a large raindrop shower. All three bedrooms have top of the range supportive HYPNOS beds. There is a second double en-suite with a king-sized bed and a third bedroom with bunk beds and en-suite. Crisp white linen and bath towels are provided.  All bedrooms have a Smart TV with Netflix and YouTube pre-programmed  Please input your own userid and password to access.

Garden

Heading outside, the flat garden has been beautifully designed by the owners and RHS Chelsea gold medal-winning designers with a vertical wall of stunning succulents in each enclosed garden and a rockery and paved patio facing West, perfect for BBQs and a glass of wine on a summer’s evening, watching the sunset over St Ives in the distance.   The height of the fencing is just under 5 feet high

Bifold fences between Holly Cottage and Oak Cottage next door can be opened up if guests are from the same party (Holly Cottage is adjacent to Oak Cottage).

Dog Paddocks

You can have access to a secure dog exercise field on site (no need to book) which is fenced to the height of 2 metres on the open side and 1.5 metres on the sides with hedges behind them.  There is a further exercise field with dog play equipment in it (which does need to be pre-booked).

Nature Tours

Helen & Rich have planted 30 acres of permanent wildflower meadows with 23 wild flowers, clovers and vetch varieties.  The hedges can grow out to provide shelter and nesting opportunities for birds, who enjoy the seeds and insects that the wild flowers produce to attract.  Old irrigation ponds have become havens for dragonflies and minnows, fallen trees and branches have been heaped into piles to form bug and small mammal hotels, and hundreds of native saplings have been planted over the last six years to regenerate the woodland.  Anecdotally, they have noticed a marked increase in the number of insects here over the last couple of years, and the variety of dragonflies, butterflies and moths has become apparent over the last 12 months.  In the summer of 2023, guests remarked on the great number of caterpillars in the fields and the insects drawn into the cottages by the night lights and open windows.  Several guests asked to know more this summer, so Helen started to do Nature Tours of the farm to share her knowledge and experience with them.  If guests would like to learn more about the farm and its wildlife, please let Helen know, as she will try to fit it in during your stay here.
