DeCressy Apartment

DeCressy Apartment is a one-bedroom ground-floor flat within Penarwyn House, a period building set in shared grounds at St Blazey, near Par. It sleeps 2 adults and comes with off-road parking and a private bathroom with a freestanding roll-top bath as the main feature. Netflix is available on the smart TV, and Wi-Fi is included.

The layout is compact and arranged for a couple: kitchen with the cooking essentials, a sitting area, and access to the shared garden and grounds outside. Note that there is no dishwasher or washing machine on site, and the property does not accept pets. Changeover is Friday. The property has 1 review on Sykes, with a rating of 4 out of 5.

Carlyon Bay is 2.5km away - a long arc of south-facing sand with a beach cafe at the western end. Charlestown, the restored Georgian harbour regularly used as a film and TV location, is 3.4km east. The Eden Project is roughly 8km north via the A390, a straightforward drive in under 15 minutes. Par station is a short walk from the house, and from there Truro is around 30 minutes by train while Plymouth takes under an hour.

Best for couples wanting a quiet, characterful base within easy range of the Eden Project and the mid-Cornwall south coast beaches. Less suited to families, groups larger than 2, or anyone needing laundry facilities on site.
