Unity Cottage

Valleyview Barn  Creegbrawse  Nr St Day  TR16 5QF

Location & Directions

We are situated in the small hamlet of Creegbrawse, less than 1 mile to  Chacewater. Unity cottage offers uninterrupted views overlooking the area of outstanding natural beauty Poldice Valley, the villages and hills beyond.  The mineral tramways ‘coast to coast trail’  can be seen from the cottage and is a 5 minute stroll away. Dotted around the valley are the old engine houses including Hawkes’ engine house at Killifreth mine and 'Unity' Engine House.  A reminder of Cornwall’s mining heritage.

Our location is in an ideal position with easy access to the A30 and less than  5 miles to the Cathedral City of Truro (great restaurants and shops), only 5 miles to the North coast surfing beach of Porthtowan and the coastal paths, and Falmouth  (Maritime museum) is 9 miles away.

If you want something a little more active then cycle along the coast to coast trail with bikes from Bissoe Tramways cycle hire. They will deliver and pick up cycles to the property (with prior arrangement).
