Family owned cottage set in beautiful landscape gardens.

Looking south west towards the stream that runs through the beautiful grounds at The Village of Gardens, Pendra Loweth, Yarg is one of a group of purpose built, privately owned holiday cottages, set in a peaceful valley close to the beach at Maenporth in Falmouth.
Onsite facilities include tennis courts, children’s outdoor play area and an indoor plunge pool (seasonal opening hours) making this a practical venue for families looking for a coastal holiday. A smart holiday home with a bright open plan living room, French doors open onto a sheltered terrace with access to the large communal gardens. https://www.pendralowethfalmouth.co.uk/facilities

Beautifully presented, the kitchen is well equipped and al-fresco dining is a must. Upstairs there are three bedrooms, two doubles and a single plus a family bathroom. Yarg is on the south side of the Village set along the stream which runs the length of the grounds. A fifteen minute walk along country lanes will take you to Swanpool beach, ideal for families with a beach café and watersport hire and tuition. The bustling resort of Falmouth is a 10 minute drive where there is lots on offer for all ages and interests including the National Maritime Museum. The town is packed with a vibrant mix of cafes and restaurants, shops and galleries.

The North Helford region has much to offer with beautiful woodland, creeks and villages and many fine restaurants. The magnificent, subtropical gardens of Trebah are a day out for the whole family. 4 miles of footpath with adventure play areas for children, the gardens cascade down to their very own beach on the Helford River, a perfect spot for a summer picnic. Yarg makes the perfect getaway and ideal for enjoying this diverse and beautiful region at any time of year.

Great home from home
The property is one of the best we have stayed in. Located in Pendra loweth which is a lovely setting with beautiful gardens and a few miles from 3 beaches it really is a home from home. The property itself is spacious with a well equipped kitchen and everything is good quality. There were a lot of extras like the coffee maker and tea, coffee and milk there on arrival. The bedrooms are a good size with plenty of storage. The extras also included buckets and spades, a cool box and windbreak for the beach. There are patio doors at the back opening onto your own patio area overlooking the beautiful gardens and I have no hesitation in recommending this property.

Family Break
The cottage was clean and we liked the layout of the cottage. They even provided tea and coffee things which was a nice touch! We really enjoyed staying here and it was perfect to get to all the places we wanted to visit - my kids enjoyed having a selection of books and games to use. The only disappointmenting thing was the swimming pool you have access to, its really small. The hosts were great, we had an issue, which was resolved straight away. Definitely recommend this cottagefor a family holiday. Also you don't have to bother bringing your seaside things, as everything is provided, even a cooler - which was great for us.

Quiet cottage near Falmouth
Wonderful quiet cottage in a very green and well maintained holiday village. The beaches can be reached with 20 minutes walk. The kitchen is well equipped and you find everything you need in the cottage. There is also a little shop and bar close to the reception of the holiday village.

Lovely stay in Falmouth, Cornwall
A lovely surprise to find this accommodation in a beautiful little valley quite close to Falmouth Town. Fully equipped and furnished little house, very comfortable for the three of us. The only exception was the hot water supply. I couldn't understand how to get more than one hot bath per day (for the 3 of us) Apart from that, it was superb

Lovely stay
We had a really great time staying at Yarg cottage. Check-in was simple, it came with all of the facilities we required and I was especially impressed with the baby equipment e.g. High chair, baby gate etc. Making life much easier for us. The cottage is in a beautiful location and only a small distance from the centre of Falmouth and multiple beaches. We are definitely going to stay again!

Fabulous location
Overall a well-located cottage in a nice valley. Well maintained. Comfortable furniture. Some issues: Toilet seats were loose. It was very difficult to get the induction hob work. WiFi password mis-spelt leading to confusion in getting access, carpets not very clean. Dishes weren’t getting cleaned properly in the dishwasher. No en-suite as per advert.
