Could it get any prettier!? Looking out of Wednesday cottage, across the lane, this is what you’ll see….

Before visiting Helford this book should be read. Frenchman’s Creek is a twenty minute walk from the cottage.
Leaven the hush of the village, you’ll walk through the leafy beech woodland, across the babbling brook and up through the farm of KestleBarton and then almost without warning, the land tilts downward. The farm is left behind, and the creek begins to reveal itself through gaps in the trees. Oak and ash crowd close now, the light dappled, shifting—cooler, quieter. It’s only then that you might catch a glimpse of the mast of La Mouette.
Add it to your reading list!!

Hello Poldhu! We love you 🌊🤍🌊🤍🌊
And thanks to for the most delicious hot chocolate sundowners to warm us up… they are something else!🥰
….and shhhhhsh🤫 …if you’re super lucky and it’s the right time of year, you might get to see the mesmerising murmurations of the starlings at dusk.

Waking up to the sound of this stream right outside the bedroom window… pure serenity. It could be a scene from a story book.

Our cosy twin room is perfect for children.
Wednesday Cottage sleeps 6 although due to the layout we would recommend 4 adults maximum and up to two children for everyone to be comfortable.

We looooove this spot! It's about 20 mins drive from the cottage and has much to offer. There is the fantastic beach cafe which serves all sorts of loveliness and is open 364 days a year. Selling ice creams and treats, tea and coffees and for those who like a sundowner you can enjoy a beer/cider and watch the sun go down.

The beach is on a very gentle slope with a little stream running through it, perfect for the little ones or dogs to splash about in.

We enjoy the walk along the coastal path, over the headland to Church Cove... there and back takes about an hour.
But what's so special if you're lucky enough to get to see them, are the starling murmurations. Around November time at dusk you might get lucky!

This is such a find and we love it here... their vibe and attention to detail makes the magic happen. For a cosy cuppa or a breakfast to indulge in, this is where it's at. There are also countless wonderful walks so bring your wellies! Just a 10 min drive from Wednesday Cottage...

Cosy, cosy, cosy!!! Our sitting room has a beautiful old inglenook fireplace to nestle beside on a cold winters night.
For a little cottage it's surprisingly light...with large windows and a glass atrium on the first floor where light floods down into the cottage.
