The Summerhouse is a beautifully appointed chalet nestled into the side of the Kennal Valley. Boasting a south facing private balcony, it enjoys fabulous far reaching views across the valley and beyond, perfect for an evening drink, a BBQ, or simply relaxing & taking it all in.

Inside, the Summerhouse combines luxury & practicality with a large double room & ensuite, a spacious lounge & kitchen with cooking facilities. There is also a sofa bed, a tele, heating and Wi-Fi for less clement weather.
Please do check our reviews on Google or Facebook. Simply type in Blankednick boltholes and see what our previous guests thought about our little piece of Cornwall.
Location:
Ponsanooth is a charming Cornish village nestled in the Kennal Valley. It boasts a fine pub, a decent playground, and a well equipped village shop selling local produce, as well as basic essentials. Just a short drive away is the thriving town of Falmouth, made famous by the sailing regatta and it's multitude of brilliant bars and restaurants overlooking the harbour. Here you can go out fishing or on the pleasure boats, hang out in the bustling town, or just relax on the beautiful sandy beaches of Gyllyngvase or Maenporth. The more adrenaline fuelled North coast surfing beaches are within a twenty minute drive from Blankednick.
Things to do in the immediate area:
For a good walk, there is also the Kennal Valley nature reserve with the remnants of a bygone gunpowder factory with the Kennal river cascading through. The South West coastal path is a mere stones throw from Blankednick, with some breath taking coastal scenery and essential ice cream shops on route to help recharge tired legs.
Nearby is Stithians reservoir, ideal for watersports and nature walks and the great North Coast surfing beaches are around a twenty-five minute drive.
Oh and did we mention the Dynamite Valley Brewery at the bottom of the valley (less than five minute walk) boasting local brews and even a beer cafe for a sundowner...
Getting around:
Although idyllically quiet, Blankednick Lodge is within a stones throw of the A39 which connects Truro to Falmouth to the deep South of Cornwall. Therefore almost anything in the county is easy to access, from the county town of Truro (7 miles away) to the famous surf beaches of the North coast being around a 20 minute drive.
There is also a bus stop within 500 yards of Blankednick going both North to Truro and South to Falmouth if required.
Please ask Ben and Lou the best way to get to places, as we know the secrets of navigating Cornwall, even in peak times!
Located in Truro, this lodge is in a rural area and on a river. The area's natural beauty can be seen at Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Tehidy Country Park, while Performance Centre and Gwennap Pit are cultural highlights. Enys Gardens and Raze the Roof Indoor Play & Laser Tag are also worth visiting. Discover the area's water adventures with kayaking and scuba diving nearby, or enjoy the great outdoors with hiking and horse riding.

My cosy woodland chalet will be available for you to again enjoy this year. However due to the COVID pandemic and in order to keep us all safe I will NOT be providing bedding (this includes duvets, pillows, bed linen and towels) and ask that you bring your own and take it home with you. Because of this I have reduced my prices. My chalet will be deep cleaned and sanitised after every guest. Again and in order to keep everyone safe, I have had to put back check in time until 5pm at the earliest to allow a certain period of time between guests leaving and arriving.

Outside there is a picnic bench which is ideal for alfresco dining or just eating a relaxing breakfast and watching the local wildlife and listening to the birds singing in the trees. Bed linen is not provided. Please note that there is not enough room for a cot in either bedroom and therefore the chalet is not suitable for babies/toddlers. Allocated free parking is close by.

While you’re down this end of the county, it would be a shame to miss out on your Land’s End photo, or you could visit mainland Britain’s most southerly point, The Lizard. Porthcurno’s Minack Theatre is also well worth a look, and if you can catch a show there, even better – the backdrop of the sea at this open-air venue adds a whole new dimension to performances.
Creekside is a tastefully furnished Canadian Log Home, in a valley backing onto a tiny creek, only two miles from Padstow and a short drive from several sandy surfing beaches. These log homes are built from solid logs harvested, after more than eighty years' growth, from sustainable forests in Nova Scotia where regulations dictate that only two trees per acre are felled each year. Their design ensures complete protection from the elements which, together with the central heating and living flame gas fired "stove", gives them a lovely warm feeling when it is cold or wet outside. The two balconies and large south facing deck, however, give you all the opportunity you need to take advantage of good weather.
