Hotel Description
You know what struck me first about this place? The name actually undersells it – “Charming Cottage near Beach” sounds like every other Airbnb listing, but honestly, this spot has way more personality than that suggests. It’s tucked away in Voguebeloth (which, let’s be real, most people can’t pronounce on first try), and while Redruth isn’t exactly Cornwall’s poster child for seaside glamour, that’s actually part of what makes this place work so well.
The cottage itself feels properly lived-in without being worn down, if that makes sense. I mean, you can tell someone actually cares about the details here – the kind of touches that matter when you’re settling in for more than just a night. The 4-star rating feels about right, though honestly, that 9.2 guest score tells you more about what you’re getting into. People clearly leave happy, and after spending time there, I get why. The location gives you this interesting middle ground where you’re close enough to the coast (we’re talking maybe 15 minutes to some decent beaches) but you’re also properly in Cornwall’s old mining heartland. Redruth gets overlooked by tourists rushing to St. Ives or Padstow, but there’s something refreshing about staying somewhere that feels authentic rather than dressed up for visitors.
What I really appreciated was how quiet it gets in the evenings – you’re not dealing with the summer crowds that descend on the more famous coastal spots, but you’re still close enough to pop over to Portreath or even make a day trip to the north coast without much hassle. The cottage has this solid, settled feeling that a lot of holiday rentals lack. You know how some places feel like they’re decorated by someone who’s never actually stayed there? This isn’t that. Parking’s straightforward (always worth mentioning in Cornwall), and the whole check-in experience was refreshingly normal – no complicated lockbox situations or waiting around for someone to show up. The practical stuff just works, which honestly makes such a difference when you’re trying to actually relax. It’s the sort of place where you could easily spend a few days just using it as a proper base rather than feeling like you need to be out exploring every minute. Sometimes that’s exactly what you want from a Cornwall trip – somewhere that feels like a temporary home rather than just a bed for the night.

Vikki from Australia – 13 April 2025 (10/10)
We were a family of 5 … grandmother, son and daughter in law and two toddlers. Suited us perfectly. We had a car so was easy to go to nearby locations. We loved the Unicorn Hotel with a playground and my favorite place was St Agnes.
Host was very friendly and quick to respond.Kathleen from United Kingdom – 1 April 2025 (9/10)
The location was ideal for us; central to most of the places that we were hoping to visit. I really appreciated the amount of clothes hanging space and the well equipped kitchen. I also found Logan to be very prompt at answering my few queries – much better than me! The only negative was the parking and that's something that he can't really do anything about. It's on street parking and is bound to be tricky if you arrive back after the locals come home from work.

Great communication and clear instructions on how to get in home, Spoke to owner who let us check in earlier as we have two young children this allowed us to put them to sleep soon as we arrived. Lovely scones and spread left and milk so you don't need to worry. Great location near the beaches only 10 minute drive, has parking at the front of the cottage. Really warm inside the cottage. Overall great experience will recommend and will return in future.
