Find Places to Stay in St Austell on Airbnb

Harbour Lights will knock your socks off if you are after a relaxing break with great views and facilities

This is a special place, in particular for a 'couples getaway'. We went as a family (two teenage girls) and though a squeeze in the spare room for the girls we all found it a great place to spend a week exploring the local walks, beaches and food. Notwithstanding our stay included a visit from 'Storm Dennis' it was a fantastic week and we enjoyed watching the weather coming into the bay.

Really lovely place in a great location with lovely restaurants within a 5 minute walk. Charlotte was a great host who was available to help with anything required. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Thanks! X

What a nice place harbour lights is. Location is perfect with amazing views & the accommodation is brilliant.

This really is a ‘gem’ — absolutely stunning property with luxury finish, in a truly superb location! Walking distance to local beaches, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and everything you will need. We never used our car at all during our stay, and wakening up to the sea views every morning...just ‘wow’!!

Great

Well where do I start!! The property it’s self is nothing short of amazing. Charlotte kindly accommodated an early check in which was much appreciated. My dogs thoroughly enjoyed their stay with lovely complimentary doggie bags. The views from the hot tub are to die for and there was nothing better than relaxing in the bath looking out at the ocean at the end of the day. The scones and the bubbly definitely made it that little bit more special if that’s even possible! Charlestown is beautiful and the recommendations from the welcome pack where much appreciated. Longstore was a special place for a very nice steak. Thank you for a wonderful stay and we hope to be able to stay again soon.

Charlotte and Joey’s place is a gem! A wonderful location with spectacular views and easy access to quaint Charlestown. Charlotte went above and beyond by getting us a travel crib for our 20 month old. I will miss the relaxing nights of hearing the ocean from the master bedroom and relaxing in the hot tub. Charlotte even had scones, Cornish cream, milk and bubbly awaiting ya upon our arrival! A class act. Not to mention the place was spotless and had everything you needed and more. The closest Tesco is about a mile away so make sure you get essentials before getting there. Charlotte had general hand soap and shower gel but if you need laundry detergent and shampoo you’ll want to bring it for your stay.

The best air bnb I have ever had the pleasure to visit. Carol and her cabin are both amazing. From the outset you get a good feeling from Carol’s warmness and kind heartedness and on arrival you can see that she has put her soul into this beautiful cabin. The setting is idyllic and the cabin itself is truly unique. Every little detail has been thought of and the little touches make the cabin feel a home away from home. It’s cosy, romantic and homely - a real rare find! I can not recommend this place enough. The decor and architecture are incredible and Carol’s easy to follow instructions mean using the wood burner and outdoor fire pits are a doddle. There isn’t WiFi (not an issue as you are there to relax and enjoy your surroundings and I found it nice to be disconnected) but if you want to watch a movie in the snug upstairs room on a chilly evening perhaps download something before arriving. There are many beautiful coastal walks in easy reach by car; the coastal path to Polperro is beautiful and a trip to the beach at East Looe is a lovely way to spend the afternoon with a Cornish ice cream. The Bodmin Moore’s are on the doorstep as is the Eden project. Thank you Carol for sharing such a wonderful space with us! 10/10 - a must visit for everyone 😊 I would also recommend a lunch visit to the Duchy of Cornwall Nursery just beyond Lostwithiel (approx 15 min drive) - good food, friendly staff and a very sweet resident cat living in the garden centre shop!

The Cabin is a unique and wonderful place to stay. Carol has made this place romantic and quirky and is a wonderful host. The summerhouse at the top of the field is a lovely extra that you don’t get at most places. If you want to escape from the rat race and have some romantic time alone with that someone you love this is most definitely the place to stay x

Carol has been an amazing host, she was extremely understanding and welcoming when we arrived an hour ahead of schedule. The Cabin is a very cosy and homely place to get away for a few days and is perfectly placed for the Eden Project and some great local seaside towns. We look forward to staying again!

Loved it 😊

The Cabin was truly beautiful - it was everything we’d hoped for and more. Carol has thought of everything; the personal touches (games, umbrellas, lanterns, etc) made the place even more special. The decor is also brilliant - very homely and comfortable to the point we spent more time in enjoying the fire and games than we did out in the end! Carol is also a fantastic host with brilliant communication and attention to detail. We were overall delighted with our stay and cannot wait to return.

The Cabin is a perfect place to get away and unplug! We really enjoyed switching off (we had no phone reception and there is no wifi) and relaxing in beautiful surroundings. The Cabin has everything you could need when you are away, Carol has thought of everything. The kitchen is well stocked and we cooked in every night. There are lots of games and books and a TV. We didn't make use of the Summer House but can imagine it would be lovely when it's a bit warmer! You definitely need a car if you are staying here and there are no pubs or shops within walking distance. We visited the Eden Project - it's less than a 15 minute drive. Loved our stay here, we will come back!

Perfect, absolutely spot on. Stylish and cosy little hideaway. Carol was great at checking us in and keeping in touch. Beautiful little cabin.

The cabin is so cosy - stylishly decorated and full of everything we needed, Carol had thought of it all. From keepcups to torches, to reusable shopping bags to board games. The log burner was perfect, bed was comfy and shower piping hot. Check in process was really easy. Would definitely visit again! The area is incredibly quiet, no noise or light pollution so you get a really good view of the stars. Not much around so bring supplies. We walked up Hellman Tor which was very cool. All in all a fab weekend

Wonderful stay in a unique place. They had everything we needed, and even added a few lovely extra touches. With the fire going, the place was a lot warmer than expected, and the outside shower was great! If its wet weather - bring wellies!

Quirky and lots of fun. Lovely location with everything you need.

Such a beautiful train carriage, great location and not in the middle of nowhere as i originally thought. Very easy access into st austell. Fire had been lit for check in, so was lovely and warm throughout with a welcome pressie and some lovely plants. All rooms had extra blankets and a there was even a cute selection of hot water bottles provided to warm the beds due to the time of the year. The train has a lovely raised deck that overlooks a fast flowing river which was an added bonus. A truly different but wonderful stay.

We had a really good time staying at The Siphon. It was lovely and cosy with the log burner going on arrival in the evening, which was appreciated on a very wet and windy weekend at the end of October. The rain made it even more of a great adventure for a 9 and 5 year old and something they'll be talking about for months to come. It took them a little while to come to terms with getting their boots and coats on in the night to go to the outside loo, but that will only make it more memorable for them. It was refreshing to be 'off grid' for the long weekend, no electronics and just a good selection of board games and a radio (both provided) which was set to Classic FM for maximum chill in the evenings. Now that we're back home, the children are of course back on their iPad's, but I like to think with a fond memory for the simple life. We'll definitely try to go back in the summer to make the most of the surroundings. As a side note, everything that was provided was of high quality and eco friendly where possible.

Chris and Jo have an amazing air bnb and I would recommend this venue to anyone wanting a unique glamping experience. All amenities needed were available and although it was cold there were many blankets and thick quilts to keep us warm and cosy. This would be a perfect venue during the warmer periods to go on long walks along the clay trail and enjoy the surrounding area. There was an abundance of information given for things to do, eat, travel information and even places to avoid. Wonderful hosts an a wonderful experience. Already thinking of returning next year.

Would 100% recommend Chris and Jo’s place! The scenery is absolutely beautiful, the siphon is so cozy and heart warming and the decor is gorgeous! The 5 of us loved every second and we all hope to return in the future.

Family - including a toddler and two dogs! We had an absolutely fantastic time and Chris & Jo have done such a wonderful job restoring the carriage and turning it a lovely hideaway. Everything was so cozy and comfy, and there was everything you needed to make home cooking each day. The setting too is great, as although close to lots of places to explore, there was also a sense of being out in the wild! Thanks in part to an amazing outdoor shower, lots of trees and birds, the sound of the running river, and the fire pit to wile away the evenings

An amazingly cosy and unique place to stay. Chris and Jo have thought of everything and the kitchen is very well equipped. The vast selection of board games kept the kids assumed for quite a while. A great base for exploring Cornwall from. We particularly liked Mevagissy and Porthpean beach.

Can't recommend this enough. Don't think about it book and be amazed. Truly unique experience that you have to try. Throw in amazing hospitality, super knowledgeable hosts in a beautiful setting its a no brainer. Absolutely fantastic

Shonna and Ben were so friendly we learnt a lot and had good fun making the gin. The food was lovely. The tree house was warm with the fire and we had more logs then we needed. Also the food was really really good and and the vegetarian was really good for summer as well. They delivered it to us even though it was pouring rain and the food was still hot

Wonderful place to stay surrounded my nature. It was like staying in a Romany gypsy caravan in the trees! The hosts were incredibly welcoming and friendly and the gin and rum workshop was excellent. Definitely recommend.

Cracking location, unique and stunning accommodation, with the most friendly, attentive hosts, nothing was too much trouble, we loved our night there and didn't want to leave xx

Amazing tree house with everything we needed. Perfect surprise sponge cake when we arrived and the gin workshop was fantastic Our evening tapas was exceptional and the tree house so warm and cosy for such a wet February

My partner and I stayed in the treehouse for my partners 30th and the whole experience was wonderful. The treehouse itself is comfortable and cosy with the log fire on, even over a dry but cold January weekend. The gin masterclass was interesting and fun - foraging for botanicals, homemade bread, creating our own recipes, taking our own gin home to share with friends- all brilliant! Also a big thank you for the breakfast and homemade Victoria Sponge, it was such a lovely treat and really made my partner's birthday special. Highly recommended and will love to return ourselves in the summer to try out some different gin flavours!

The house is exactly as lovely as it's portrayed. A sturdy cabin made of wood, with a rustic interior, almost medieval feel, in a secluded area with gorgeous countryside vistas where the air is pure, the silence is bliss and the night sky is full of stars. The big surprise is Ben and Shona's hospitality, which is just next level. They offered to pick me up from the station since I didn't have a car. They were generous and accommodating with my dietary requirements. There was a home made cake waiting for me in the house. Ben cooks breakfast and brings it round wrapped in aluminium foil, which really keeps the food warm. The tapas were outstanding, I was floored by the quality and generous portions. They took the initiative to bring round more logs for the wood burner since it was particularly cold and I might need them. I was expecting to feel at peace in the countryside, I wasn't expecting to feel spoiled! They really go the extra mile to provide a great experience for guests.

Amazing experience! A New Year we won't forget in a long time- from the hospitality, to individuality of the experience, both Shonna and Ben were fantastic hosts- couldn't have asked for more- thank you

Really charming cottage, nicely done up, perfect for a cosy winter weekend. 30 second walk from the harbour with lovely views and lots of nice places to eat and explore.

A lovely place to stay .The perfect location to explore a great area of Cornwall

Loved the place and great location. We enjoyed seeing beautiful sunrises each morning from just over the hill. Pam was easy to communicate. Would definitely recommend and great for the dog too.

A lovely old fisherman’s cottage, up a lovely old street in a lovely old town. The space was everything we hoped for, with a very comfortable kitchen and a lovely view over the town from the bedroom. It’s a stones throw from the harbour and its amenities, and well positioned for walks along the coast, a trip to the Eden project or a longer journey to explore other parts of Cornwall.

A great location, with everything you need for a break at the seaside. We enjoyed walking to the Lost Gardens of Heligan, and the coastal walk to Gorran Haven. A friendly village too!

Lovely cottage in beautiful village. Perfect for 2

The cottage is right in the heart of Mevagissey - so convenient for shops, pubs and restaurants. The property was stylish in it’s decoration and very comfortable. Lots of charm and a welcoming place to stay.

We had a really good stay at Pam's cottage! It's in a great location we would definitely stay again next time we are in the area! Check in was very easy. Thanks for letting us stay!

Clean comfortable slice of quiet Cornish charm. Perfect place to retreat but not too far from civilization to feel isolated. Amenities are only a short drive away to main town one way and choice of villages the other. Perfect for all reasons

The place was amazing! The hostess were great! Chris came up straight away when he heard us coming to welcome us and give us tips for were to dine, have some drinks and enjoy the area! I suggest it 100%! It can't be more traditional than that! An old Mill.. Exactly as it sounds! Majestic!

Wonderful spot- everything we hoped for & more. Stylish and beautifully converted apartment in an old mill house in an amospheric part of Cornwall. Brilliant base for exploring. Super friendly hosts who left all kind of thoughtful touches. Wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend.

Lovely property, great location.

We had a wonderful stay at Chris and Jo’s. The Mill is so quaint and cosy, everything you could need is there. Such a warm and spotless space. We will definitely be back. The Eden Project, Charlestown and Mevagissey in a stones throw. Thank you -)

Absolutely wonderful place, very clean, modern feel to a very beautiful old building without losing the historic charm. Beautiful well kept garden area, perfect outdoor area for dogs. The hosts were extremely helpful upon planning our visit and very thoughtful to add touching gifts to our stay which was very much appreciated. The kitchen has lots of equipment to use which is great! Lots of board games and just a very nice place all round !!

Such a charming Cornish place to stay with lots of thoughtful touches and amenities that made it a home away from home. Really impressive renovation of the mill. Greatly appreciated the recycling and eco friendly bath and cleaning products as well as the delicious clotted cream fudge and delicious coffee!

Chris and Jo were fantastic and their place is perfection. Easy to find but nice and quiet, communication was quick and were full of useful tips for the local area. We also took our pup who also loved it and was made very welcome. Definitely recommend for a fabulous holiday!

The Sheep Shed is a cosy, quiet base in a great location to explore Cornwall. It's a self contained space with everything you need to cook, there is a lovely pub that does food a short walk away too. Lisa was a great host and communication was brilliant. We'll definitely be back.

Lisa's space in a wonderful space to get to see cornwall, cosy and idyllic. Great in winter when we stayed but I'm willing to bet it'd be gorgeous in summer

We cannot recommended this as a getaway destination highly enough. It’s a beautiful little space in the back end of nowhere. Wonderful! Sadly our trip was cut short but we absolutely loved our brief time there. The instructions, communication, decor, location, price and tips were all spot on. Definitely stay here! We’ll be back again soon!

Great little space with all you need. Folder full of recommendations. Parking right outside. Would love to return in the summer. Lovely local pub Crown Inn.

The Sheep Shed is truly a lovely little space to stay in. It is very well equipped for the cosy and compact size, quite remote but lovely and peaceful. The instructions from the host on how to get there were accurate and helped considering I arrived when it was getting dark. The shower and toilet are compact but clean and the water was lovely and warm in the shower. Everything is well thought out, and even though I was there whilst storm Ciara was travelling in, it was very warm and cosy. The little welcome basket with cereal and fruit is a lovely little touch :) I definitely hope to return in the future for another getaway, hopefully with my other half this time! Thank you again x

This was the perfect country get away! Our host went the full mile to ensure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. She was knowledgeable and welcoming and easy to contact. The Sheep Shed is cosy and equipped with all that you need. The location is central to both coasts. We would definitely come back and recommend to anyone looking for a quiet country break!

A great place to stay! Exactly what you expect from the pictures and description. You're not too far from Bodmin to be able to go to a bigger shop or to a town if you want but you are very much in the countryside. Went for a 2 day trip to Cornwall and this was the perfect place to stay near lots of good places. Lanhydrock is a lovely national trust place to visit and had an amazing lunch down in Charlestown.

Great location to discover local attractions. Accommodation cosy and compact but very well laid out and contained everything we needed. Pub walkable and served lovely food.

If it could get 6 stars I would have!! A bargain for the money, really nice friendly person!! Highly recommend

Matthew was a fabulous host and the accommodation itself is great — exactly as it is described. A great room for both short and long term stays being close to many attractions. Having the shops in Par and the beach within walking distance is handy. You’d be hard pressed to find a more helpful, friendly, and welcoming host than Matthew.

Great place to stay with family, short walk to beach and located near some good places to visit. Thanks

Beautiful family friendly house in a beautiful village in Cornwall. Would love to stay again.

Absolutely ideal location - literally a 5 minute walk to the local pub and x 3 beautiful Resturants . Great guide for local walks and dog friendly places. Aldi and Tesco very close if you want to dine in - great space for cooking/dining very cosy . We will come again. A perfect place for our Minimoon! Exactly what we were looking for , clean cosy and comfortable! X x

A great house in a great location! We appreciated having a dog-friendly house in this great location. We loved being able to walk down to the Charlestown beach each morning and evening, be within 5-10 minutes drive of beaches at Porthpean, Carlyon, and Par, and so close to grocery stores (Tesco, ASDA, and Lidl) for supplies for self-catering. The house was lovely and warm, stylish, and exactly what we were looking for. Would love to come back at some point.

Westaway Cottage is a lovely property. Beautifully renovated, clean, cosy, comfortable, and in a fantastic location. The space worked really well for a mixed family group of six adults. We would love to come again in the warmer months, to take advantage of the south-facing garden!

Great location, very nicely furnished and decorated, well equipped and high quality overall. Lovely big bathroom, plenty of storage and everything you need. Even better than photos.

Lovely property, tastefully decorated and great location. A real home-from-home. Our dog loved the morning walks across to the dog friendly DuPoint beach and the cafes and restaurants in the area are great. Ideal property for a small family.

Really lovely, homely cottage on the doorstep of everything that Charlestown has to offer. Excellent communication from our hosts from the point of booking to the end of our stay. Thank you.

Very close to station, very hospitable and friendly hosts, room was clean.

Great host

A perfect location for The Eden Project, and within walking distance of the local swimming pool. Clean, warm and cosy with a separate entrance which meant I didn't have to worry about disturbing Mark and Donna, which was great. Couldn't have asked for more.

Great place, spotlessly clean at a fabulous price

Lovely spacious great for single person or a couple. close to town but not to close. great hosts! Would definitely recommend to anyone

Really comfortable room, wonderfully clean and well presented. The hosts were helpful and friendly. Highly recommend.

Nice location, the room are really clean and lovely, Mark and Donna are very nice people, If I have travel back again I will pick the same choice.

Fantastic value for money. An excellent host and a very stylish and clean room. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful little cabin at the end of a cottage garden. Great communication and hospitality! Magical finishing touches. Breakfast is a must xx

Great place!!!

We stayed with Sue+Dave for New Years Eve & had the most amazing time, such a lovely space & the hospitality. Definitely will be going back again.

We had such a lovely stay at Sue and Dave's! We have family in the area and cant believe we haven't found this place sooner! Will definitely return and recommend! We especially loved all the blankets and the fairy lights :)

Sue and Dave’s place is lovely. A quiet comfy place to relax after a busy day/night sightseeing/going out. Everything we needed. And a lovely breakfast to boot - Sue kindly organised a very last minute very lovely vegan breakfast for us! Perfect :)

Lovely and welcoming family ! The accommodation has nice touches like kettle, water and even spare blankets. Amazing breakfast as well! Would recommend it 100% and come back at any time ☺️

Highly recommended

The lovely hut in the garden is well furnished, peaceful and cosy and you find everything you need. I can also warmly recommand the breakfast, which was really great - served in two pretty baskets, with very lovely crockery and a lot of kindness. Sue and Dave are the most amazing hosts I've had during all my journey in England. They helped me with everything I needed, gave me good tipps and showed me the best places in the surroundings. I can highly recommend this place and the hosts and will come back whenever I can.

We stayed in the Studio over Valentines weekend and we really loved our stay. The apartment is very clean, spotless in fact, and has everything we could have possibly needed. The weather was awful with storm Dennis so it was great that we had good wifi and tv when we wanted to escape the rain. The TV has Netflix so we could log in to watch what we wanted too. A lovely area of Cornwall to visit. Many places easily accessible. Nice all you can eat Chinese at the end of the road. Carlyon Bay is close and a very lovely place to visit. I would definitely recommend anyone to stay here, we will certainly stay again! It was a nice surprise to have a box of chocolates left for us too! Lovely hosts who always get back to us very quick. Perfect hosts! :)

Thank you so much for an amazing stay that was absolutely wonderful just what the doctor ordered beautiful pad super well designed and ideally located thank you so much.

We had a lovely comfortable stay at Sam's. The apartment had all the essential amenities as well as some extra special touches (mincepies and Christmas decorations!) We enjoyed visiting Charlestown and walking along the coastal path to Par, as well as exploring the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan.

The flat was perfect for the two of us and just as described! It had a useful kitchen area downstairs and lots of amenities included. Thank you for having us to stay!

a wonderful find. everything you needed was there. Wonderful

Very comfortable and well appointed accomodation. A good place to spend a few days and explore cornwall

Great accommodation, lovely host. The accommodation was well located for visiting lots of attractions. A very comfortable stay.

A very nicely decorated apartment in a nice quiet area. It was lovely and clean and Sam had provided few essentials food-wise which was very helpful...especially the scones! Great base for exploring the rest of Cornwall.

Really great place to stay. We turned up quite late and had a fantastic sleep, really nice clean place for an excellent price, would definitely stay again

Perfect room for my continuing during into Cornwall. Samantha was really helpful with local places to visit and an all round great host.

Quick response to booking, easy check in, friendly host, close to local amenities.

It was a pleasant stay.

A very cosy place with plenty of space and full privacy.

Perfect for a one night stay in St. Austell. Comfortable and clean. Host was friendly and helpful, extra touches like tea and coffee in the room along with smart TV fully appreciated.

Sam is easy to book with and really helpful.

would fully recommend this as a place to stay if visiting the Eden Project or just having a look at what Cornwall has to offer. lovely big room kept very clean

Stayed at this apartment twice and both times it has been amazing! So clean, stylish and so relaxing!

Beautiful little modern apartment with everything you need. Very private. Easy check-in. Short walk to some nice restaurants. And lovely little touches and extras left by the host. Definitely recommend booking here!

The flat is a lovely place to stay and easy to get around from! Hosts were very responsive and parking space was great!

Outstanding accommodation tastefully designed quite Every thing u need & a very comfortable bed ❤️

Would highly recommend this loft accommodation and would consider using again. Everything we needed for a few days away to explore St Austell and walk a few clay trails. Warm clean and modern. All appliances you have at home were provided. Enjoyed the shower and large tv but wrong time of year to use outside decking area.

Beautiful Flat; clean, tidy, appliances - I like to iron my clothes and previously in another Airbnb there was no iron or ironing board! So that was great for myself. We were travelling this way to visit The Eden Project which was a 20 minute drive from the flat, very easy to get to. The communication between myself and Janice was really easy, quick responses and there were no problems at all. Overall the pictures is what you get and we didn’t expect anything less ☺️

A lovely comfortable well appointed apartment It's lovely and clean and in a great location My third stay, Mark and Jan are very accommodating

Great space, very clean and comfortable, has everything you need and more! Off road parking space is very convenient and is in a great location to get around Cornwall from.

Great location, good for a quick stop at eden project

Was great for our night in Cornwall have a nice base for what we had planned loved the cream teas and the cosiness of the place

This was a great little place! Easy to get to from the train station and had lots of cozy blankets! Would absolutely stay again if I was in Cornwall!

This is an adorable little flat, the bed is very comfortable, and it’s a great place for exploring the local area. You’ll feel very warmly welcomed here! It’s quite chilly, the oil heaters work well but I’d recommend bringing slippers and a hot water bottle if you tend to get cold at night. There’s a very quirky cottage feel to the place, which is lovely.

We stayed in the Sweet Shop cottage for New Years Eve, for a country getaway. The house was so small and cosy with a kitchen, bathroom and bedroom upstairs. The house was decorated with local artwork and had a variety of leaflets about the local area, Chris also told us where to visit which was great. We were welcomed by Chris who explained how to work everything and left us a cream tea which was a lovely treat after our 2 hour drive down. The kitchen had the basics and there were supplies to make tea and coffee, oven, microwave, fridge, kettle ect. The bathroom had an amazing shower and the bedroom was spacious with a really comfy bed and TV for entertainment. The house had no central heating so the floor was really cold (take slippers!) but upstairs was fine. There were oil heaters on both levels to keep us warm. We walked down to Charlestown Harbour which was beautiful with the sea, rocks and fairy lights everywhere. It was the peaceful break we were looking for and I can't recommend Chris' house more!

Great communication, and easy check in. Chris provided scones, jam and cream, which was a lovely touch. Comfortable and self contained, parking space available, made it a great place for a short stay. Easy walking distance to Charlestown Harbour!

Lovely little place.. full of character and ideal to have a parking space so close to the town..

Lovely and quirky little place. Fab location for local shops/ pubs/ beach. It is on the road so a little noisy, but you can’t hear this from the bedroom. Great for 2 people. The cream tea was lovely - thank you! The parking was good, but wouldn’t recommend if you have a large vehicle/ 4x4. The hosts were super welcoming and friendly.

We had a lovely 3 night stay at River Valley Retreat, communication was really quick and Sam was a lovely host. The space is decorated beautifully and was a brilliant base for us to explore Cornwall. Alongside this, the kitchen was equipped with everything we could possibly need. I would definitely recommend visiting here, the best air bnb we have ever stayed in!

Absolutely amazing, couldn’t ask for a better place to stay, short walk to local shops. Not far from many places to visit. Had plenty of leaflets to look through for things to do in the area. Definitely would come back to stay again :) x

We’ve just had a wonderful 4 night break at RiverValley Retreat. There was everything we could have needed to make it perfect. Beautifully clean and some lovely touches like coffee, tea, milk and Cornish shortbread for when we arrived. Always helpful but never obtrusive as a host. Thanks Sam, hope to see you again.

The River Valley Retreat.. Wow.. Its amazing how something that looks small from the outside, becomes this amazing space on the inside and the attention to detail is perfect, this is the perfect little gem for a retreat getaway

We really enjoyed staying at The Retreat. It's a beautiful, cosy space with everything we needed plus some thoughtful extra touches by Sam. It feels like a home from home. Great location to drive to neighbouring locations and lovely places to eat. Made easier with parking on their private driveway. Sam was easy to communicate with and gave us plenty of helpful information before we arrived. If we visit the area again we'll definitely stay here again.

This was a great little studio, self contained, separate from the house, everything you need for a few days in Cornwall. Easy walk into St Austell, good Chinese restaurant on the corner. The studio had a good shower, decent bed, off road parking. All good - would stay again.

A perfect place for a long weekend exploring Cornwall. There was everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and the cream tea was a lovely touch. We would stay again :)

The situation is perfect, parking excellent and the hosts are so helpful. Scones on arrival and beautiful touch!

Jer’s place was spotlessly clean and good value for money, he was a very friendly host and asked multiple times if everything was ok and if there was anything else he could do to make my stay better. Would definitely recommend Pentrassoe if you're looking for a cheap and cheerful place close to St Austell town centre.

WITH

I only stayed 1 night but there was plenty of room for 2 people to live out of if you were visiting the area for longer. Check in was easy with clear instructions and the shower was lovely!!

The location is close to the train station and bus stop to various attractions.

We had a very pleasant stay, thank you

It was nice and comfortable place to stay. Clean and tidy room. There were always available places to park in moorland road.

It was a quick stay, we arrived late and left early. We couldn’t meet but through the app we received all the info needed, directions and location. Very efficient replying your emails and the room was spotless!

Jeremy’s stay is spacious, good service, timely response and the bed was so comfortable! We slept much deeper than normal!

Nice cosy place for a couple. Charlestown has a good selection of places to eat. Nearest grocery shop is probably Asda about 15 mins walk away

The Nestloft is a wonderfully cosy and idyllic quiet little haven that is near excellent restaurants in the historic port of Charlestown. It is sparkling clean and its owners have thought of EVERY detail to make our stay welcome, even good real coffee capsules! I consider it a great find, in fact one of the best places I have stayed in so far, and I have tried many airbnb's! We will be back.

The net loft is a lovely, cosy, spotless well set out property. Everything you need and more. Fabulous shower and well set out kitchen area. Comfy bed, quiet and very conveniently located. We ate in the Boathouse next door both nights. Highly recommended

A lovely clean and comfortable apartment. Right in the village, just a few steps from the local pub and restaurants.

We had a lovely weekend stay... even with storm Dennis!! Lovely place to stay with everything you could want.. really good pubs and restaurants close by, my only tip is rage some slippers as the slate floor can get chilly! We will be back x

Beautiful little cottage in an excellent location. The cottage exceeded expectations from the pictures, it had everything we needed for a short break, was spotless and cosy. We would highly recommend a stay here and we will certainly be returning.

Such a sweet and cosy little home. Perfect for a long weekend away from it all, and for hiding away from stormy British weather! Charlestown is a lovely town to explore and has good access to St Austell, Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Pat and Keith were friendly and helpful. Hope to come back one day!

A wonderful, cosy little apartment, close to the beach and plenty of lovely eateries. We treated ourselves to a massage next door and had a truly relaxing time. We'd definitely recommend

Our stay at Little Poppies was far better than we could ever have expected. We knew it was a lovely place from the pictures seen on Airbnb but Lindsay and Tony's hospitality and their attention to detail topped it off and made our weekend in St Austell perfect. The place has a real homely feel to it and there were numerous extra bits provided such as books and games as well as information about the area to name a few. We will definitely be staying again!

The Little Poppies is the ideal place to stay and explore St Austell and Cornwall in general. The home is maintained to excellent standards and there are several little touches that will make you feel at home right away! Lindsay and her partner Tony were warm, kind, receptive and super helpful. I would 100% recommend this air bnb.

Wow! This was my first ever stay in an Air bnb, and I would definitely reccomend Little Poppies. The place was really beautiful and all the little thoughtful touches just made the stay even better. The hot tub was just perfect for relaxing in after a day of adventuring and exploring the area. Lindsay, Tony & Chloe were fab hosts. Nothing was too much trouble; they really went above and beyond. Thank you x

Lindsay and Tony are great hosts, very welcoming and helpful. Little Poppies is a delightful space, stylishly decorated and has everything you could ever need (including prosecco and a cream tea waiting for you on arrival!). Overall we would highly recommend this air Bnb :)

Lindsay's place is a great place to stay if you are visiting Cornwall. It is very clean and so pretty! There are so many thoughtful touches- you notice more & more of them the longer you stay. And it was so reasonably priced! I'm glad it was within our budget.

We stayed at Lindsay and Tony’s place The Little Poppies and it was spectacular! Lindsay and Tony were wonderful hosts and made our stay far better than we could have ever expected. It was amazing looked after and clean and had all the best little touches that really blew our mind and the Hot Tub was just the cherry on top in the private garden. It was the best way to end every day. We would highly recommend staying at The Little Poppies. We would definitely go back the next time we go back to Cornwall.

A brilliant apartment with great facilities in a wonderful location. Very highly recommended.

This is an absolute GEM of a home, with wonderful hosts. I decided on a weekend away (alone) not having done anything like this before, and can say hand on heart I had the most amazing time. Lindsey and Tony showed me around, and most importantly how to use the hot tub, but then leave you to get on with things privately without interference, although you know if you need them they are only next door. Little Poppies is just idyllic, the attention to detail is faultless with little added touches to make you truly feel 'at home'. Home made scones, fresh orange, and all types of tea and coffee, among a variety of other delights await you, there is no need to worry about shampoo or shower cream these are all provided too!.... The hot tub was amazing after a day of walking around taking in the fab scenery, an added bonus to this incredible home... I did not want to leave, and have been telling everyone of this wonderful find. Am definitely going back to Little Poppies again. Thank you so much Lindsay and Tony, truly cannot wait to come back again x

Cosy bolthole with a great view. We stayed at the end of November and even though the temperatures had dropped outside, it was still lovely and warm inside the cabin. Anna was helpful and friendly. She even mesagaed us when or taxi arrived.

Lovely space, comfy bed, GREAT view, really friend1

Lovely stay! Great view and perfect for a one night stay near St Austell!! Thanks

This was a lovely place to stay whilst we were visiting St Austell. It was very clean and comfortable, with really nice touches, such as a TV, Wii console and a bookshelf. The fridge was stocked with milk, butter and fruit juice, with cereal and bread also, which was a really great surprise. Anna was helpful with communication beforehand as well, and was very accommodating - letting us check in really late at night at late notice. A really great place to stay, and lovely views of fields outside the windows to wake up to! Would recommend to friends staying in the area in the future.

The accommodation is in a beautiful location with a wonderful view out the sliding doors! It was very cosy and close to shops! It is beautifully managed and we had cereals, bread, tea, coffee, fresh milk and orange juice provided for us. It was very homely and we would definitely stay again!

Anna's place is really great. Extremely clean, very comfortable, super location away from the town so easy parking. The place is spacious with a modern large bathroom with shower, kitchen area has everything you need - microwave toaster kettle fridge and much more. Loads of storage areas if staying for a long period. The host we didnt meet but did meet "Mother In Law" and she was a delight deffo not a dragon !!! Warm & cosy. Breakfast was provided - nice and simple with fresh bread, cereals, milk and orange juice tea coffee etc etc. Everything really really superb. A perfect stay in every way.

Super studio with stunning views! Warm, clean, well appointed and very comfortable. In a great place for exploring cornwall too! Anna and family are very friendly and helpful, and lovely to have a breakfast before we left for the days entertainments!

Comfortable room with lovely view of the countryside from your bed whilst you eat your breakfast which is provided. Anna gave us a warm welcome and it is conveniently located for the Eden Project and many other places.

Would recommend

Perfect location for St Austell. Checking in and out is incredibly smooth and easy, and the hosts are very welcoming.

Will definitely be returning, thankyou for having us.

Value for money. Central to many places if interest. Jeremy has great ideas for places to visit whilst you're in the area.

Highly recommend.

Great location and great landlord. Highly recommend.

Exactly as described. Very clean and comfortable. Very good communication from the host.

Great room, very clean! We had a plesant stay, the host provided us with a whole bunch of interesting things to do and see in the area.

Fab

Great place to stay, exactly what I needed :) nice location with everything near by. Recommend

Great value accommodation , it ''s spotlessly clean, lots of extra touches , good location . The " lost gardens of Heligan " are a must ! Lois the host is super helpful and we highly recommend her place !

A warm welcome - well stocked lttle fridge and goodies for coffee/tea and breakfast... This is excellent value for money - a super place for your stay in St Austell

Lois offers a clean,comfortable and spacious room completely separate from her own accommodation. Tea, coffee and breakfast items provided as well as a small fridge. The area is central for tourist attractions.

Had a great stay at Lois’s. Lovely comfy and stylish room with loads of extra touches - even a small fridge. I’ll certainly look to stay again.

A lovely space for a few nights away - good location to walk into Charlestown (15 mins) or into town. Very private en-suite room with good breakfast included. Highly recommended.

Exactly what we needed and more. Really comfortable and homely with many thoughtful touches. Brilliant value. Lois was very helpful and gave us some great local tips. Highly recommended.

We loved everything about our stay at the barn - the hospitality, the eye to detail and most of all the fire. It's a little gem and we'd love to come back.

Very nice modern barn in a great location. Very clean! And a lot of thoughtfull touches including treats and ball for the dogs. This place is very dog friendly! Would definitely return.

Had a lovely time here. It is a beautiful house located centrally to lots of amazing local attractions. Jane was very helpful and quick to answer any questions we had. We would highly recommend staying here.

Warm and welcoming Barn conversion with all the little touches and beautiful views.

Faultless, nice view, good size, comfortable, good host

A lovely quiet location with pretty views. Decorated to a high standard with a friendly host who showed us around on arrival. 10 minutes from Eden project, would recommend.

Superb accommodation with a beautiful view of the countryside. Modern and contemporary furniture with a well equipped kitchen and bathroom. Clean, spacious and high speed broadband. Very comfortable bed with bespoke lighting, warm and cosy double bedroom. Self contained so the host let’s you just get on with it, perfect. Highly recommended, five stars. I didn’t want to leave as it was so idyllic and peaceful.

Thank you so much for having us. Your place is beautiful... very warm welcome and has everything you can need in a self catering place with lots of extra touches . Will be back very soon

Great little place, in a peaceful quiet location, beautifully clean. Really lovely host

Had a lovely stay at Catherine’s! Beautiful contained apartment that was very clean and had everything we needed for an overnight stay. We will be back!

What a stunning little place this is! Such a beautiful view across the valley. The perfect place to curl up with a cuppa and a good book taking in the view- especially if there's a good sunset! Everything was thought of by Catherine down to the small details in each room. Everything was made easy and straightforward. A beautiful place to stay which felt quite luxurious yet still private. Less than 6 mins into St Austell and easy driving distances to surrounding beaches, harbours, villages and towns. A great find.

Very peaceful location and the view from the apartment was beautiful. Added bonus of the secluded seating area outside. Catherine made sure that we had everything we needed upon arrival. Wish we could have stayed longer.

We loved our stay in Mermaid cottage. It was everything we’d hoped for and more. Some of the highlights include the amazing view and the sound of the sea from our bedroom windows, the lovely big fire that kept us warm and cosy every evening, the general simple, cosy feel of the place and the cleanliness. Our four girls were thrilled with their bunk beds and with the cottage in general - they spent most of the holiday wanting to ‘stay home’ and play hide and seek or explore! We will absolutely come again and we highly recommend this cottage.

Mermaid cottage is a truly magical place to stay. The view from the terrace is just stunning and we loved how close we were to the sea. It is perfect for paddle boarding, you can launch straight from the rocks below the backdoor. Port Mellon is a lovely, quiet bay with a beach to explore and beautiful coastal walks. We can't wait to go back to Mermaid cottage - we loved our stay.

A very special cottage in the most incredible position by the sea. We had a magical time here.

The location of the cottage is amazing. Never stayed so close to the sea before. Port Mellon is charming and nice and quiet compared to Mevagissy which is just a short walk away.

We have stayed many times at this cosy retreat, perfectly situated as it is on the rocks above the ever changing tide. Looking forward to many more return visits.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your apartment , very convenient to the centre and train station. Even though the air con was not working we appreciated you buying two fans for us. We also enjoyed the out door space, thank you for a very pleasant stay.

Complete satisfaction

Wonderful location by the sea, with fantastic coastal walks available on your doorstep. The cottage is lovely, peaceful and has everything you'll need for a great stay. Helpful hosts too!

Lovely location. Can’t fault the view and ease of access into Mevagissey . Loved this cottage

A wonderful cottage in a delightful, unique location. All furnishings and fabrics are of very good quality. Fully equipped, we lacked for nothing. Two reserved spaces in the nearby carpark were invaluable.

Corner Cottage’s cliffside location on Portmellon Bay is simply perfect; it’s close enough to shops and restaurants in Mevagissey, but it’s also a peaceful haven away from it all by the sea. The charming fisherman’s cottage is well equipped, the beds are comfortable and the thick white towels are luxurious. Tom communicated well to any queries we had. We loved being lulled to sleep by the sound of the ocean...

An amazing location, close enough to walk in to Mevagissy. The local pub was very welcoming with good food. We were lucky with the weather and swam every day, could almost have been abroad if it wasn’t for the slight chill of getting into the water initially! My children did a bit of free diving and assured us that it was as beautiful under the water as above it. The coastal walking was great too, the Hidden Hut at Portscatho is worth a visit. We took kayaks and a paddle board so an outside tap would have been useful for washing them off but we appreciated water is probably metered and not all guests would use it sparingly. Thanks again, we would love to return

The most perfect location for a holiday: spacious 3 storey cottage with large windows in every room looking directly onto the sea. Shops, pubs and coastal footpaths all in easy walking distance. Bliss.

Gorgeous setting, lovely property, stunning place to have a holiday! Cant wait to go back!!

I don’t really want to write a review in case I can’t get a booking again for next year. It’s so good I want to keep it secret.

Great place with great views. Unique!

The cottage was perfect for a long weekend away. Great location for coastal walking and lovely village. We had everything we needed in the cottage to cook a full roast on 1 evening. There was plenty of space, and heating came on to ensure we were never cold! Would definitely stay in a location owned by Patricia again!

I had such a lovely time at Connie cottage, sooooo cozy and warm, in a great location couldn't ask for much more :)

Great location and lovely cottage

A fantastic place. Great cottage and in amazing location. Cottage has everything you need. We cooked a few times whilst we were there with no problems. Really clean nd tidy. Hosts were amazing, quick responses and helped out with anything we needed. Lots to see and do in the area. The harbour itself has lots of restaurants and pubs.

We had a really nice 3 night stay. Clean, quiet, comfortable. Modern and stylish, and cosy in an old fisherman's cottage. Thoroughly recommend.

A perfect base to explore a delightful area

Connie’s cottage was perfect for our trip to Cornwall. Great location just next to the harbour and all the restaurants, parking was free, cottage was warm, clean and had everything we needed. Can’t recommend enough.

Lovely spacious cottage right in the heart of St Austell, Patricia & her husband were lovely & very welcoming. Would absolutely stay here again

This is an almost new place, which is well designed, clean, stylish and quiet.

A beautiful hidden gem of a cottage. Such a gorgeous, clean space with beautiful gardens. Chang was extremely helpful and polite and offered a lot of advice. We will definitely be returning

Amazing hospitality, very stylish and comfortable accommodation! Will definitely be returning and I recommend this very highly!

This place is a real gem. Everything you need for a stop over. Within gorgeous gardens and a 15-20min walk to Charleston harbour. 10min drive to the Eden Project. Friendly and responsive host. Would recommend.

Incredible place to stay in Charlestown. Really close to the beach and amazing restaurants. Highly recommend to all

What a fantastic place to stay! A lovely apartment with lots of space. The beds were very comfortable and there are lots of thoughtful extras. I would definitely come here again. It was very clean and Sue had left a lovely welcoming cream tea. Perfect location for the Eden project and visit to the brewery.

Thank you Sue for a lovely stay. You really have thought of everything and the fresh flowers and welcome pack are a lovely touch. Thank you

Stayed here with my family as we were in the area visiting the Eden Project. The apartment was perfectly located for that. And was a very clean, modern, nicely designed and well-run property. Sue was brilliant with communication. Very responsive. And the property had some great info books, and very clear instructions. Also some nice personal touches including a welcome pack of food and drink, including some delicious scones! Lovely and modern and very well done property. And brilliantly located for the Eden Project, which was the main reason we booked. Loads else to do in the general area, too.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Waterwheels Apartment! There is an abundance of space and it is extremely clean and comfy throughout. If we're in the area again we will definitely staying here.

Great place, I've been several times for visiting family and look forward to returning again. Guaranteed enjoyment

Our third stay with Sue, amazing host, lovely apartment, beautiful touches, there will be a fourth.

A lovely place to stay, the apartment was well furnished, cosy and had everything you need for a break away from home. The location was great as you could walk to shops, restaurants and pubs. We didn't use local transport as we had a car and could get around easily. Highly recommended

Great location and great accommodation, we will definitely come back to Ferryman’s Cottage.

This was just what we needed for two for a week; we needed Friday to Friday and not many were available. Excellent views over the inner harbour. Quiet location, almost no traffic underneath, only occasional foot traffic immediately in front (probably a bit different in summer?). Not large but very comfortable. Nice to have a real bath after a wet walk. Very narrow and quite steep stairs; no worry for us but could be a problem for some. Electric hob very basic old-fashioned style but quite adequate. The wifi key was not visible and asking the 'host' Richard said I should ask the housekeeper which wasn't as helpful as it should have been. I didn't bother as we had good 4G reception and a goody bag with plenty of data, and I think it unlikely the housekeeper would have known; it doesn't strike me as part of their role. If you really need wifi double-check details before booking. Richard is not really the host, but agent for cornwallscottages, but in his role as host as far as Airbnb is concerned he should have been more helpful.

This cottage is even prettier in real life than it is in the photos, and that's saying something! We came here directly after our wedding, hoping for a quiet, relaxing few days on the Cornish coast, and it was exactly what we were hoping for. Richard sent very detailed and easy-to-follow instructions very early on, which was extremely helpful, especially given how busy we were before leaving. The house itself couldn't be better located - the sea, the harbour and the town all just a few steps away - but also extremely quiet and peaceful. It is beautifully furnished, very clean and cosy. The town itself is lovely, with plenty to do nearby and the coastal path easily accessible. All in all we had a wonderful few days and would recommend this to anyone.

This cottage was the perfect break away from the stress of everyday life. The cottage itself is very beautiful with lots of character. It is perfectly located on the harbour with stunning views and easy walking distance to the pubs / restaurants. This cottage was so good we will definitely be back again.

Has a wonderful week long stay in the beautiful Mevagissey. The cottage is very quaint and in a perfect location. The view of the working harbour is exceptional. The cottage has everything you could need. The kitchen is well equipped and easy to use. Comfy bed, good storage space just outside. The bath was great and the shower too. We loved having a real fire in December. There was even wifi, which we weren't expecting! There is a fairly steep climb to the cottage, so anyone with mobility issues may want to consider this. But in less than a minute you can be at the harbour side. The car had to be parked across the harbour, about 3/4 km away, but a pleasant walk looking at the boats and shops (and seagulls!) even in the rain. Easy to unload and load your luggage just below the cottage, but may be a little trickier at the height of tourist season. We have stayed in Meva on several occasions, but this is our new favourite place to stay and we will be back. There was even a very lovely ginger cat who invited himself in, which we were very pleased about! Such a friendly chap. We shall give him full marks on Catadvisor. (His name is Willow or 'The Harbour Master' and he belongs to a woman called Molly who lives up the road! There is also Ralph, a black cat, who is also a great local feline!)

Had a really great couple of days at the cottage. Fantastic location a short walk from everything you need. The cottage is well equipped and has everything you need. The only thing I struggled with was the mixer taps on the shower! Parking was easy even in the middle of August!

The views from the cottage are absolutely lovely. It helps that Mevagissey is still a working fishing village. It makes it more interesting. The cottage is really funky. It's been carved into the rocks and as such the walls follow how the place was carved out. Namely, the walls are not square and instead tend to be curved in places. Otherwise the place is very comfortably and had everything we needed. I would certainly stay there again if we were to return to Mevagissey.

Very cozy cottage with spectacular views. Clean and tidy. Very close to stores and restaurants. It was a little chilly, even with the space heater. A wood burning stove is available if you have the means to light it.
