Four and a half miles south of Helston, this delightful cottage is situated on a tranquil estate.

Rural Retreats is delighted to offer you Spring Water Barn, one of three holiday cottages on the magnificent Bonython Estate, under five miles south of Helston on the northern part of the Lizard Peninsula. The accommodation has been renovated to a 5-star standard, and beautifully furnished. The layout of the property has been designed with great thought and style.

Bonython Estate Gardens, which guests are welcome to explore, comprises some 20 acres with a recently renovated walled garden and potager and a hidden valley with three small lakes. The gardens are rated as one of 'The Great Gardens of Cornwall' and given a star in the 'Good Garden Guide'. Bonython Estate is a traditional, mixed agricultural Cornish estate with ancient manor, farm and woodland stretching almost from one side of the Peninsula (the Helford River) to the other (the beach at Poldhu Cove) with both shores just over a mile away. The Estate is close to the amenities of the small towns and villages nearby.

On the Estate you will find Mews Cottage (CW047), sleeping six guests; and St Corantyn Cottage (CW048) sleeping four guests.
