We stayed at Meadowsweet Cottage, Crift, which provides compact accommodation for two, and is situated approximately 7 miles from St Austell in peaceful surroundings

This is our second visit to Cornwall chosen on the outskirts of St Austell to be close to the Eden Project whilst within reach of the north east Cornish coast & Bodmin Moor
