Charlestown is perfectly situated for exploring the whole of Cornwall. The world famous Eden Project is only 3 miles away.

Attractions such as The Tate St Ives, the wonderful St Michael's Mount, Land's End and the National Maritime Museum are easily visited within a day. Meanwhile the family friendly, sheltered beaches of St Austell Bay are on the doorstep and the surf resort of Newquay is an uncongested 14 mile drive. The Waterwheel Apartment itself is within a 100m of the Mevagissey - St Austell - Fowey bus stops which provide a frequent service throughout the year and is less than 2 miles from the main line railway station. Charlestown is a beautiful, idyllic, unspoiled, historic port, on the south coast of Cornwall and has recently featured in the TV series Poldark. Charlestown has three pubs and several restaurants catering for a variety of tastes and pockets. For outdoor enthusiasts there are several excellent walks, including the coastal footpath, cycle routes and water sports. Bikes and kayaks can be hired locally. The Owners have left an Information Folder to help you plan your stay.

Charlestown is an idyllic harbourside village with its tall ships, pebbled beaches and numerous eating places. Visit The Shipwreck Centre to learn about the fascinating local history or potter around the numerous gift shops. There are two 24-hour supermarkets within a mile of the apartment and the mainline railway station in St Austell has good connections within Cornwall.

Cornwall is renowned for its breathtaking coastline and has many attractions to explore. There are many beautiful beaches on the south coast like Porthpean, Pentewan, Caerhayes and Polkerris.

We stayed in the waterwheel apartment for 2 weeks with our 10 & 12 yr olds. The property provided plenty of space and had excellent facilities. It was immaculate with some lovely extra touches. It was a short walk into Charlestown which was the prettiest little harbour with a fabulous selection of bars and restaurants (check out the rum bar!). The beaches closeby were great for swimming & rockpooling, whilst the surfers beaches on the north coast were only a short drive away. There was also plenty to do on rainy days, cinema in St Austell, Eden project, Bodmin Jail, Carnglaze Caverns & bike hire on the camel trail were all easily accessible by car. We loved our stay here & hope to return. Thank you for a wonderful holiday!

The property was very clean, well equipped and minutes from the lovely harbour. Checking in and out was easy with no fuss. Plenty of good places to eat and if you prefer to eat in, big supermarkets are within walking distance. Would highly recommend.

Lovely, roomy apartment, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable. All the appliances and furnishings were good quality, and the kitchen was very well equipped. Lots of nice touches including milk, tea, coffee and delicious scones with cream and jam, and as we stayed at the end of December, the living room had been decorated for Christmas. Sue was a very responsive host, answering messages very quickly, and always helpful and accommodating Great location for various attractions in Cornwall, and an easy walk down the hill to Charlestown which has some lovely pubs and restaurants with sea/harbour views. A bit more effort required to walk back up the hill again, but worth it.

This apartment was spotlessly clean and very cosy and well situated for visiting local attractions. We stayed in March in awful weather but it was always great returning after a day out as it felt warm and comfortable. The bedrooms are large so no problem sharing. There are two large supermarkets close by so no problems with food shopping. The property owner Sue was very responsive throughout. A thoroughly recommended stay.
