I am Jessica from Cornish Keepers - Luxury holiday home management company. As the founder of Cornish Keepers, I’m passionate about making sure we – in partnership with our homeowners – deliver it. When it comes to five-star holidays, it’s the little moments of quality and comfort, from prepared fireplaces to luxury bed linen, that matter. We love Cornwall and we love helping you unlock its hidden treasures. You’ll be greeted with tourist information, vouchers and a locally sourced hamper of treats to help you feel right at home. Discover our homes for yourself and get ready for an unforgettable holiday.

Penty Lowen, meaning Happy Cottage, is a characterful coastal homestead that brings as much joy as its name implies. Lovingly restored, this luxury holiday cottage is nestled amongst a cluster of pretty Cornish cottages and sits just a stone’s throw from the beachfront in desirable St Mawes. Sleeping 6, this dog-friendly abode is the perfect base for families or couples looking to explore The Roseland Peninsula and its overwhelmingly beautiful scenery. We will only accept one small dog.

Location Occupying a prime St Mawes location, Penty Lowen is located in central St Mawes, just a 30-second walk across a quiet village road to the historic fishing harbour and unspoilt beach. As a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, The Roseland Peninsula in South Cornwall is revered for its breathtaking coastal scenery. Enjoying a unique microclimate, The Roseland benefits from exceptionally mild temperatures and attracts walkers, beach lovers, and water sports fans alike. This quiet area of Cornwall measures just ten miles long by three miles at its widest, yet despite its small size, is packed full of idyllic rural villages, quintessentially English countryside, sensational Cornish beaches – and even a historic castle. St Mawes lies at the southern end of the peninsula and is the largest village in The Roseland. Benefitting from three gorgeous beaches, this sought-after village draws visitors year after year. Almost entirely surrounded by water, with the Fal Estuary to its West and the Percuil River to its East, The Roseland makes a glorious spot for wild swimming (and indeed many other water-based activities!) in its crystal-clear waters. Once suitably salty and sandy after a fun-packed beach day, head back to the comfort of Penty Lowen to freshen up before a potter around St Mawes’ attractive town centre where you will find a collection of boutiques, galleries, cafes, pubs and fine dining restaurants. Offering so much to visitors from a leisure and luxury accommodation aspect, there’s no wonder guests come back year after year! Please note that whilst the holiday cottage does not have private parking, public parking is available nearby at either The Square or The Quay in St Mawes.
