About this property

Unusually for a holiday let, it has full central heating and an open log fire and it is therefore ideal for breaks throughout the year. Meadowbank offers a rare and peaceful haven overlooking the ancient village church. The south facing terrace and garden offers a sunny and relaxing addition to the house. The thatched village pub is a short distance down the hill and is well worth a visit, for such an old building it is ironically named 'The New Inn'. Changeover day is normally a Friday but this is more flexible at quieter times of the year.

Spacious property in beautiful area

We were delighted by the spaciousness of Meadowbank & the complimentary treats left in a basket for us including delicious flapjack.⁹ The beds were very comfortable & thank you for the games & books available for are use. A washing line would have saved a bit of use of tumble dryer. We were so near to Helford & enjoyed days at Kynance Cove, Porthleven & Paradise Park. Can recommend local pub where we had a nice meal. A enjoyable get away in a very comfortable home to which we hope to return.

Lovely bungalow in a peaceful village

We loved our stay in Manaccan. The bungalow is well appointed, very clean and has all the equipment needed for a relaxing holiday. The beds are very comfortable and the garden is private, lovely for a quiet glass of wine in the evening. We loved how peaceful the countryside was and enjoyed our evening walks. It’s located close to Helston a large town (20min car trip for groceries etc) and there is a lovely pub in Helford a short walk away, sadly didn’t get a chance to visit the pub in Manaccan village. Lots of National Trust gardens located very near. Also recommend the Fish and Chips van on Tuesdays! Fantastic property, very glad we chose it!

Such a lovely cottage.

Such a lovely cottage. Very clean and well equipped with everything we needed. Great location for many days put. It was lovely to have so many bathrooms/shower rooms as there were 6 of us and so no need to queue! The bedrooms are a very generous size and the sofa in the attic room provided a good space for the kids to have time to themselves. Francis was very prompt replying to any messages sent. We look forward to staying again.

Manaccan luxury

Had a great stay at a very comfortable property, really good standard of property with all that need for a relaxing stay. The village is very small with limited facilities but not very far from civilisation. We loved the distance as it meant we could escape the busy areas of Cornwall and enjoy the coast and fantastic walks. St Anthonys ( 10 mins by car or 1 hour walk) is great. Really enjoyed our stay and would happily go again.

About the host

Hosted by Francis Carne

Meadowbank has belonged to the family for many years but has only recently been available for rent. The owner grew up locally and despite having to work 'up-country' has spent almost all his holidays in this special corner of Cornwall. The rest of the family needed no persuasion to love it also. This is their only holiday property and is used frequently giving it a high level of attention and comfort.
