Gina Ryan
A fully self-contained relaxing space in the garden separate from the owners cottage. Set in large terraced gardens with 2 patio areas, quiet and private. Knobbly Nook is designed to feel like home with the facilities you need. The property backs on to open fields and is situated down a quiet lane so plenty of peace and quiet yet you are close to everything. Railway station at par with road links to surrounding seaside towns and places of interest including Charlestown, Fowey, Mevagissey, Eden, Heligan Gardens, Polperro and Looe. Nearby in the village there is a Chinese takeaway grocery store and fish and chip shop.
Gina welcomes you to Knobbly Nook which sits behind our cottage. We have lived in Pooh Cottage for 21 years now and raised our family here who are now all grown up and finding their way in the world. It has been a lovely haven for us, family and friends over the years with many many great memories our cottage is called Pooh Cottage because our youngest son loved Winnie the Pooh as a child and you will see a Winnie plaque on the wall as you drive in our passion has always been family, walking , being close to the sea and just relaxing with friends over a barbecue. Alan is an old enthusiast but bad golfer and Gina the creative brains who has also done most of the decorating in Knobbly Nook! Easy going with a good sense of humour. Absolute people pleasers so don’t worry whatever you need we will do our best to sort it out for you and also give you plenty of tips on where to go, what to do and so on. Just ask and we will help you. We have two old cats who are very friendly. Our aim is to make your stay what you want it to be.
The nearest landmark of course is the Eden Project with its biomes and Mediterranean gardens, open air theatre and concerts. It is less than a mile away up the back lane. Historic Charlestown with its harbour, museum, cafes and pubs and tall ships is 2 miles away. This is an often used location for the filming of Poldark. Fowey is 3 miles away with its many shops, restaurants and pubs. A boating community situated on a beautiful estuary and the home of Daphne Du Maurier which offers excursion, fishing and boat trips. The working fishing port of Mevagissey is 6 miles with a large old harbour, shops and plenty of places to eat and close by the Lost Gardens of Heligan which offer amazing discovered landscaped and ‘jungle’ gardens to see. Of course St.Austell is only 3 miles away with a variety of shops for all you need. Within 2 miles there is a large Tesco, Liddel and Asda. Immediately in St. Blazey main st there is a Chinese, late shop, post office and fish shop and also a petrol station with shop. There is also an Indian restaurant and takeaway and a Co-op. A doctors surgery and pharmacy is within half a mile. Basically the surrounding area caters for everything you need .
