St Corantyn Cottage, sleeping four, is an exquisite holiday cottage set in the tranquillity and seclusion of the magnificent Bonython Estate. The cottage is beautifully furnished, earning a 5-star rating from the Cornish Tourist Board.

Guests can enjoy the tranquillity of the beautiful and renowned Bonython Estate Gardens beyond the cottage’s own courtyards.

Situated six miles south of Helston, St Corantyn Cottage is close to the magnificent beaches and coves of The Lizard Peninsula. Eight minutes' drive brings you down to Poldhu Cove and the wonderful coastal paths.

St Corantyn Cottage has been updated and sympathetically improved in the last three years. Now comprising two bedrooms, each with a spacious separate dressing area and with a bathroom en suite for one and a shower room for the other, all the accommodation is on ground level. A large living/dining area with working wood burning stove, opening onto a well equipped kitchen completes the accommodation.

Decorated with restful style and taste, this most comfortable accommodation for one or two couples is completely private and surrounded by a walled courtyard on the southern side, a veritable sun trap complete with sun-loungers. Private parking is accessed from the Estate road and car spaces, adjacent to the entrance are a short distance from the front door, through an enclosed lawn garden. A wonderful space for a barbecue.

    A clean and well-appointed cottage in lovely estate gardens. However the VRBO listing is wrong- there is no ensuite for the twin bedroom and certainly not three bathrooms. This was very disappointing.

    We thoroughly enjoyed staying at St. Corantyn Cottage, Spring Water Barns, on the Bonython Estate. It provided us with a charming, comfortable & civilised base from which to explore S. Cornwall.

    We were impressed with the property on all counts. It was clean, modern, warm and well equipped. We were also impressed with the splendid welcome hamper which included the essentials plus a number of luxuries. The housekeeper was charming and popped round to check everything was ok. The beds were excellent - proper king size with luxury bed linen. The rooms were large, warm, well furnished and nicely decorated. The kitchen was well equipped. All in all couldn't be better.

    We loved this location and cottage so much that we decided to come back this year. The location is great for day trips and being tucked away from the crowds, as well as quiet days and evenings, if you prefer.

    My parents and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this pretty cottage on the grounds of the lovely estate. The cottage is well-equipped, nicely designed, and very comfortable. It is well located for the port towns and cliff tops of the Lizard Peninsula. I recommend a visit to the stunning Minack Theatre - an outdoor theatre built into the cliffs with views across the ocean, as well as the nearby town of Helston. Thank you, Charles!

    We enjoyed a fantastic family holiday in a wonderful cottage that catered to all our needs. We walked the grounds of the Bonython Estate and enjoyed relaxed summer evenings without feeling the heat. We enjoyed being a short drive from Lizard Poing and Porthleven. We will most definitely be back.

    The minute we walked into the house we were impressed. The house was warm and inviting with floor heating in the bathrooms and the central heating already up and running. The welcome pack comprised all the necessities such as bread,butter,eggs,cereals,a homemade marmalade,some freshly made biscuits and the best lemon drizzle cake you'll ever eat! Wow!! Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were fully supplied with toiletries. What more can you ask for in a country retreat. The owner of Bonython should be proud of what she has to show her visitors! Well done Sue!! Thanks for the opportunity to visit your magnificent estate.
