There is so much to do locally. We are only 6 miles from Looe and Polperro and 5 miles from the coast. There are woodland and coastal walks, the south west coast path and myriad beaches and coves to explore. National Trust properties are well represented, with Lanhydrock, Cotehele, Anthony and Saltram being some of my favourites. The Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Heligan are easy to reach and highly recommended. Horse riding, golf, and watersports are all available locally. A week is never enough!
Our pretty and welcoming village has a historic pub The Punchbowl Inn which serves food daily. There is a village shop open mornings only and a social venue The Tipsy Cow which has fabulous views, events and delicious burgers on Thursday evening.
The apartment is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and an ironing board.

Perfect in every respect
The Old Rectory - and hosts Julie and Chris - exceeded all our expectations. We are retired and so enjoyed the peace of the location in Lanreath - and although there are several other apartments within the building, use of the generously heated pool was normally "private". We ate out in Looe,Fowey, Polruan and Lerryn, and visited friends in Mevagissey, and the Old Rectory was perfectly positioned for those journeys, and a wonderful base to which to return each night.

Excellent Accommodation
If you are looking for a quality apartment in a great location then you need not look any further.
Everything you need is there from towels to kitchen equipment. The grounds are beautiful with small play area for little children, and the pool which was much needed during heatwave. It’s location for exploring Cornwall could not be better, very quiet area but only a few miles to the beach etc.

Old Rectory - a great holiday
Great accommodation, very clean. Lovely pool, so refreshing in the heat. Beautiful gardens. Dogs welcome. Well equipped games/exercise room for rainy days. Local shop and post office nearby and well stocked. Lots to do in local area coasteering, zip wiring, cycling, segwaying, surfing (north coast) and pretty villages and coastal towns to visit and find places to eat. Great holiday.
