Nestled in the picturesque setting of Falmouth, Cornwall, this charming holiday cottage, known as The Apple Store, is a delightful transformation of a former potting shed. Dating back to the 19th century, the stone and slate structure is surrounded by trees, offering glimpses of the serene Helford River through a grassy glade. The interior boasts a stylish design with high ceilings that enhance the open-plan living, kitchen, and dining area, creating a cozy yet modern atmosphere perfect for a romantic getaway.
The Apple Store is situated within the expansive 11-acre estate of Bosloe, perched just above the Helford River and conveniently located half a mile east of the quaint village of Durgan. This region enjoys a mild climate, sheltered from the harsh Atlantic winds, making it an ideal destination for visitors seeking tranquility and natural beauty. The south-facing beach at Durgan village is within walking distance, allowing guests to easily enjoy the sandy shores and stunning coastal views.
For those wishing to explore beyond the immediate surroundings, the vibrant town of Falmouth is a mere 20-minute drive away, offering a range of shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions. Additionally, the historic market town of Helston lies 16 miles to the west, providing further opportunities for exploration. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby Penrose, a scenic area featuring wooded landscapes and open parkland surrounding Cornwall's largest natural lake, Loe Pool, which is perfect for leisurely walks and outdoor activities.
With its unique charm, ideal location, and comfortable accommodations for two, The Apple Store promises a memorable retreat in one of Cornwall’s most beautiful regions. Whether guests choose to relax in the serene surroundings or embark on adventures along the coast and into the countryside, this holiday cottage serves as a perfect base for experiencing the best that the South West of England has to offer.
