Staniforth
5403 is no longer with usIf you were looking for cottages like Staniforth, how about trying these:
Escape the everyday and come and live the country life with a memorable holiday at this delightful rural idyll nestled in the beautiful Restormel Estate in the Fowey Valley. Surrounded by glorious rolling Cornish countryside and stunning parkland, spend your days simply relaxing in the peace that surrounds, dining al fresco style in the pretty garden, fishing in the River Fowey (seasonal) and discovering woodland walks that lead right from your doorstep - it really is quite magical.
If you like to start your day with a few lengths, the indoor heated pool will be a real treat at anytime of the year along with the sauna and if tennis is your game there's a tennis court where you can serve up an ace or two. The leisure facilities, which also include a children play area, are shared with other guests on the Estate. It doesn't get much better than this.
Set less than a mile from the little riverside town of Lostwithiel, which offers up a collection of antiques shops, independent shops, pubs and cafes; you can stroll down the lane each morning to collect freshly baked croissants and pastries to set you up for the day, or for even more of a treat, take the woodland walk that leads up to The Duchy Nursery, which not only has a wonderful choice of plants and gifts but serves up some great food and drink, you are sure to become a regular visitor.
With the sheltered bays and beaches and the charming fishing towns and villages of Cornwall's gentler south coast within easy access, this little retreat really does offer the best of both worlds for your escape to our little kingdom.
