Welcome to Kindling Cottage, a typical granite cottage on the outskirts of Hayle in West Cornwall, ideal for couples and families, it offers a relaxing base to explore the area. The property is on a quiet lane in a terrace of cottages, with an enclosed garden at the rear ideal for children and dogs to run about in, or great for sitting out in the evening and enjoying the night skies. Downstairs is the living room with comfy sofas to curl up on. The kitchen is well equipped and ideal for those who don’t want to eat out all the time - pop the dishes into the dishwasher and let it do the hard work for you. The utility room is just off the kitchen, with a large fridge/freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer and you will also find the second toilet. The dining area is light and sunny with doors leading to the private garden. Upstairs is the master bedroom with an en-suite, two single bedrooms and the family bathroom.
The nearest beach is only 6-minute drive; Gwithian Towans is part of the three miles that form The Towans, popular with families and surfers. The miles of golden sands are protected by large sand dunes. The waves here are suitable for all abilities and have gained a reputation as being one of the best places to surf, you can take surfing lessons or if you prefer, jump on a bodyboard and enjoy the shallows. When the tide is low it exposes rock pools and shallow pools which little ones love to paddle in.
This is a popular area for dog walkers, as dogs are allowed in the sand dunes all year round and on the beach from 6pm to 9am during May-September. If you want to see the area why not catch the Lelant to St Ives train? Admire the stunning scenery along the way, and stop at St Ives for lunch before hopping back on to come home. For younger ones Paradise Park is a great day out, there is an indoor play area if the weather is bad, a small railway goes around the park which is popular and plenty of birds and animals to see.
