  • "If I had to rate this cottage I would give it 5 stars all round - welcoming, cleanliness, location."

    The description and the fact that the garden was perfect for our dog. We loved the hot tub and thought the place was so good that as soon as I got home I booked another visit straight away. The best bit for us was the welcoming pack for the dog. The owners, who live next door even helped us out with a car issue too, on Easter Sunday! We can’t wait to return.

    Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback! We can’t wait for you to return and so so pleased you had a great stay! Property Owner

  • "Outstanding!"

    My wife and I spent a fabulous week in Poldam, a relatively new build, detached house on the eastern edge of St Austell. We could not fault the accommodation, from the welcome tea, milk and bisquits when we arrived to the fact we wished we could have stayed longer at the end. Polly and Adam have covered every base in this property. Superbly comfy beds, plenty of instant hot water, a self- controlled and very effective heating system for the cooler months, brilliant kitchen equipment and utensils. There are also nice touches like games and books for children and modern novels for adults. Can't comment on the hot tub as we didn't use it, but it looks brand new and I'm sure it's delightful. All in all, a fabulous week and I can thoroughly recommend Poldam. Thank you Polly and Adam! James and Chris.

    Thank you so much for your kind comments. We loved hosting you and glad you had a wonderful stay. Property Owner

The property

Poldam is a welcoming house resting in St. Austell, Cornwall.

Boasting off-road parking for four cars and a private hot tub, idyllic for families, friends, and their two four-legged friends on a seaside getaway.

Step inside to a sociable kitchen/diner where breakfasts set the tone for the day and unhurried suppers stretch into the evening.

The sitting room invites you to settle after coastal wanderings, while three bedrooms include a king-size with en-suite walk-in shower, another double, and a twin, complemented by a family bathroom and a handy cloakroom.

Step outside to the spacious enclosed garden to enjoy some alfresco dining, before indulging in a dip in the hot tub while you watch the sun set into the landscape.

Positioned for exploring South Cornwall, St. Austell places big-name draws within easy reach.

In nearby Charlestown, stroll the historic harbour and pause at waterside spots for coffee as tall ships sway on their moorings.

The fishing village of Mevagissey tempts with narrow lanes, boat trips, and harbourside fish and chips that taste best in the sea air.

For a day with impact, head to Fowey, where boutique-lined streets meet the riverscape; join a guided kayak, follow the coastal path above glittering coves, or browse independent bookshops before catching the ferry across the water.

However you shape your itinerary, return to your private hot tub as dusk deepens and relive the day’s highlights under open skies.

For families and friends seeking a well-situated base on Cornwall’s south coast, Poldam offers the perfect base.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £300.

ST AUSTELL

Fowey 8 miles; Mevagissey 6 miles.

Sitting peacefully in the beautiful county of Cornwall just a mile from the south coast with its numerous sheltered, sandy, beaches, you will find the historic market town of St Austell. Filled with a range of pubs and bars, and scrumptious local eateries, St Austell has a train station on the mainline connecting you easily to Truro and on down to Penzance. Newquay can also be reached by train via a quick change at nearby Par. St Austell’s central location in Cornwall provides the perfect setting for your next holiday to the Southwest. Spend your days on exciting outings to such attractions as The Eden Project or the nearby historical port of Charlestown, where you can see artefacts recovered from local shipwrecks at the Shipwreck Treasure Museum. Head to Porthpean Beach for a tranquil walk along the soft sands or hire a kayak for a paddle in the calm, crystal clear waters, before pampering yourself at The Clearing Spa or enjoying a quick nine holes at St Austell Golf Club. Grab some fresh ingredients from the local supermarket on your way back to your holiday home for an evening of wining and dining indoors. St Austell is the ultimate setting for a fabulous coastal getaway.
