About Tranquility

Aptly named, Tranquility is a tastefully furnished, end-of-terrace holiday cottage in an Area of Outstanding Beauty on the outskirts of Falmouth, Cornwall. Perched within walking distance of the idyllic Meanporth Cove and Swanpool Beach, Tranquility is based in Village of Gardens, Pendra Loweth which houses an array of shared facilities such as tennis courts, a gym, Jacuzzi, children’s outdoor play area and an indoor splash pool.

Pull up to your new home-from-home to find parking alongside the babbling stream which flows alongside the property, before crossing the threshold into your abode to find a delightful open-plan living space through the stable doors. Venture into the sleek kitchen adorned with white ceramic worktops and a range of appliances including a hob, oven, fridge/freezer, washing machine, dishwasher and even espresso coffee machine; you’re sure to find everything you need for dinner parties, brunches, evening meals and alfresco dining!

Begin cooking up a storm after a day full of adventure and enjoy the fruits of your labour at the extendable country cottage dining table; if the sun is shining why not head outside and dine in the warmth of the sun on either the shared lawn shrouded by woodland and palm trees or the rear terrace with furniture and barbecue. When the sun disappears over Tranquility head back inside to discover the sitting room fitted with a plush corner sofa adorned with scatter cushions and comforting throws perfect for cosying up on evenings and winter nights in front of the swivel TV.

You can also find a variety of games so you can foster some friendly competition and a homely corner with electric fire; the perfect place to unwind with a book or immerse yourself in the tranquil sounds of nature. When the evening draws to a close, travel upstairs to find a contemporary bathroom with a shower and bath so you can wash off the day’s adventures before retiring to one of two bedrooms.

Tranquility Reviews

We had a lovely short break at Tranquility and immediately felt relaxed and at home. The personal touches of fresh flowers and cream tea made our welcome even nicer. The property is well situated in a quite spot and the enclosed patio area was a real bonus. All nicely decorated, clean, tidy and well equipped. We've stayed at a few properties at Pendra Loweth, but Tranquility has been the best.
Having decided to treat the inlaws to a few nights away on the beautiful Cornish coast alongside our 8 month old, Tranquility offered everything we could have hoped for and more to have the best off season break! Ideally situated a few minutes drive from Falmouth we made the most of exploring local historic locations in the castles, the maritime museum added bonus that Pirates was the current exhibition!, and took full advantage of the superb food options Falmouth offers. We even managed a short trip to St Austell and the Lost Gardens of Heligan during our mini break. The accommodation was spotless, very comfortable, lots of extras such as reading material and board games, and we loved the touch of local scones and condiments awaiting us on arrival very thoughtful! Overall we loved our stay and would happily return in the future and recommend friend and families to the property.
Tranquility cottage was more than we could have imagined. We had such a lovely stay. Everything you possibly needed was provided and the host was contactable should we have any problems. Cottage was so homely and a lovely atmosphere. Ideal for families and pets. My dog loved it too. Would highly recommend this property and would love to come back.

Our stay at Tranquility was excellent everything you needed it was one of the best cottages I have stayed in and having our own private garden was the cherry on the cake As far as the park and gardens first class My only negatives there was no proper signed re the bridle paths and to get a bus we had to take a long walk at least 40 minutes and we were led to believe there was a bus stop right outside the entrance

The property was a delight as was the cream tea and flowers left for us on our arrival. We were provided with everything we needed for a enjoyable holiday including the weather. The property and the site were colourful and well maintained. Would have liked to have stayed longer but hope to return again soon.
Nice cottage. Liked that the patio was private, helps when you have a dog. I did feel the cottage was a bit dark with all the grey paint. The cottage and patio did seem a bit cluttered. The shower needs looking at as takes ages to get hot then literally burns you. Did like the grab handle in the bathroom
5 star accommodation, beautiful setting,all you could need for a relaxing holiday
Couldnt have picked a better place to stay for our holiday, the cottage was beautiful and had everything we needed and was lovely and clean, and the location of Pendra Loweth is lovely. Would definitely recommend and will be using the same place when we come back.
Lovely property in a great location, Tranquility is tranquil. Well equipped & a comfortable stay with everything you think you need plus the bonus of an air fryer. The Joyfuel Cafe Bar & Shop on site is highly recommended, friendly staff & great service. The location of Maen Valley Park is perfect, with extremely well kept gardens & we were amused by the many robotic lawnmowers. We had an enjoyable weeks stay, with plenty of lovely walks straight from the property. We visited walked to Swanpool, Gyllyngvase & Maenporth beaches & Falmouth. Further afield visits to Porthleven, Pendennis Point & Castle, St. Ives, Helford Passage, The Lizard & one final visit back to Falmouth. A final thank you to Denise for the friendly welcome & the Cornish Cream Tea, which was lovely. It was also nice to know she was a phone call away should we need anything. We will definitely be recommending this property & location to family & friends.
Frances
Lovely area and so quiet by steam ,super comfortable bed and soft pillows lots of light and windows to open ,superb amounts of dish glasses and cooking pots . So near to beaches and eating places.
Lovely Xmas experience. The added extras and the decorations were very much appreciated. Great holiday getaway.
Its a lovely location. The park is very well landscaped with attractive planting. The grounds are well maintained. We thought that the cupboards in the kitchen were a bit cluttered as was the coffee table in the lounge with too many leaflets but the cottage was nicely decorated and clean and comfortable.
Vivian
We enjoyed our stay and everything was good ! The cottage is nicely situated just outside Falmouth which enables easy access to others areas and attractions nearby.. very nice ..
Comfortable, well equipped cottage on a great site with nice gardens.
Elizabeth
A great property which had almost everything we needed. The house was warm and comfortable. We especially enjoyed walking in the grounds & watching the wildlife.
Was a lovely place to stay for a few days and have our son at uni come and stay. A real home from home!
A fantastic cottage and one we hope to book again. A short drive into Falmouth and very close to the Uni Campus so ideal for our stay. Very cosy, clean and extremely comfortable.
We had a very relaxing week and appreciated the Xmas decorations. We will certainly consider staying in Tranquility again
Sinead
Thank you so much for our lovely stay in Tranquility. It is a wonderful and welcoming holiday home and we were so happy to stay. We would definitely consider staying again. Thanks again
Have stayed here previously. Quiet, comfortable and close to beaches, Falmouth and easy to access other areas of Cornwall

Andrew
Simply perfect, so surprised how clean and tidy it was, and how many appliances there were, you didn't have to take anything with you it was all there. So many little things to, salt pepper etc things you wouldn't buy yourself was already there, fresh milk, scones and jam waiting for you on arrival. We had terrific time in Tranquility, and Cornwall.
Tranqulty house was lovely, and made a great base for the holiday, unfortunately the site facilities were very lacking. We were out most days but usually got home around 89 and thought it would be nice to end the day up at the bar to play pool , and have a drink on the terrace. And maybe meet other people on the site. On the Tuesday we decided to have a day at the site and use tranquility garden to relax. The bar reception was not open until the evening despite advertising everywhere shop open , bar take away breakfast etc. Jacuzzi and sauna was not open, being fitted that week , we found out u can use the splash pool by a code, we were told bar was franchised out , we were told it hadn't opened Sunday night as staff had covid so no one to run it. We ordered take away on that Tuesday and when asked for salt sachet to go on chips, we were told they didn't have any, but we could buy a bottle off salt instead from the shop.! We had salt bk at the house but that seemed an insult. It advertised quiz nights , when we enquired the bar manager said we don't do them as no one shows up? Again why advertise it then. ? We enquired about breakfast, bar man told us the chef had quit the week before so no breakfast. Again tk the advert away!! I would tk tranquility house and place on another site I would, surrounding area and local info provided by tranquility owners was great, such a shame that to end the day , u had the bk garden or a very lack lustre bar with no atmosphere , infact we felt by just going in to get a drink we were causing inconvenience.... We booked the holiday not just for the cottage but the facilities it mentioned on site. ...!
Trevor
This is a lovely cottage in a nice area with beautiful gardens all around. We really enjoyed staying here.
Gordon
Lovely property in a fantastic setting.
The property was very nicely laid out, a holiday home with a homely feel. It was lovely to arrive to a cream tea waiting, made the long journey there end well and the holiday start. Instructions were good and literature around to help plan your visit to various locations. All in all a lovely place in a lovely location

Jeanette
We had a very comfortable and peaceful stay at Tranquility. Very clean and well equipped, except could do with a middle sized saucepan. We enjoyed walking to Falmouth via the coastal path, although disappointed much of it was by road. The cream tea and strawberries were much appreciated
We had a great week at the Tranquility and would like to thank Denise for the effort that she's put in to make us feel accommodated and welcomed. The cottage is in great condition, the surroundings are fantastic and only 10min away from Falmouth town centre or the shops. The internet connection is fast and reliable. TV is very decent with plenty of DVDs if the weather is not good enough for a day out. I would thoroughly recommend it. The only minor suggestion is to provide more quantity of basic items such as toiletries and kitchen items salt, cooking oil, coffee, etc. Overall it's easy to replenish by the holidaymakers themselves as the shops are so convenient to get to.
Nice cottage. Quiet, comfortable and had everything you needed. Close to coast and towns. Would stay again
Tranquillity is the perfect name. Loved our stay, it really felt like home. Very quiet in the holiday village as it was out of season and the on site facilities were closed, but no problem for us. Close to Swanpool and Falmouth, great location. Only negative was the hot water was extremely hot and caught us out a couple of times, so be careful. Fully intend to go back to Tranquillity next time we are visiting the area
Nikhila
The property was great! We stayed during the festive period and would say that it was made lovely and cosy for us as a special treat!!! We were even given prosecco and scones on arrival, which was unexpected. We had other friends staying in pendra loweth and our property was by far the most looked after and homely. The only few things to say are, we were only given 2 loo rolls for a 3 night stay and the twin room is extremely small. One twin bed also did not have bedding, which felt a bit odd and not very cosy. But other than that fantastic place to stay! Would definetly recommend for 2, but some may think 4 adults may be pushing it! I will hopefully be staying again!
Rebecca
Cottage owner went above and beyond to create a wonderful stay. The house was decorated for Xmas, lots of goodies supplied and she even left a bottle of prosecco and a card.
We've really enjoyed staying at this property. It was such a lovely surprise to arrive after our very long journey to the cheerful lights of a Christmas tree Overall the place was comfortable, cozy and stylish and gave us the space to relax. The kitchen was well equipped which I appreciated especially as I was cooking a lot when we had to spend several days in quarantine waiting on Day 2 results! Sadly our pet couldn't travel with us but it's good to know for future reference. We were glad to meet the owner who was friendly and welcoming. When we had to delay the move into our home, we were glad to have the chance to extend our stay for a few more days. We will happily recommend your company to all our visitors as the best place to find a wonderful place to stay. Thank you! Karen & Pamela
Perfect location for exploring Falmouth and surrounding areas,clean and tidy well presented
This was our second visit to Tranquility Cottage. We will certainly stay there again.
A lovely cottage set in a beautiful, peaceful location in the countryside. Yet only minutes from Falmouth and two sandy beaches.
The house was very comfortable and owners helpfull to us
Carole
The cottage was fantastic very comfortable, ideally located on a site that is landscaped beautifully. We wanted a relaxing holiday and staying in Tranquility cottage on the Pendra Loweth site was perfect. We perticularly liked the enclosed garden which we sat out in the evening. I would definitely recommend staying in Tranquility cottage and the Pendra Loweth site this is our second visit and we will be returning again.
Such a gorgeous cottage! We stayed for 2 weeks with 2 young kids. Easy to get in with the key code. Had everything you might need in the kitchen. Decor was lovely throughout. Very clean, lots of spare cleaning things if needed. Outdoor space great and felt private, with lots of space for kids to run around next to the cottage and then up at the playground. We ate a few times at the restaurant and had take out too, decent range and price. It's such a good location too, 5mins drive to Swan Pool beach or Maenporth, 10 mins into the centre of Falmouth, or up to Helford Passage for water activities. When we were there the pool wasn't open, looked small and deep so probably wouldn't have used it with young kids anyway. Owner was lovely, gave good suggestions of activities, and helped out without any hassle when we needed a bed sheet change. Other owners staying on site were really friendly, helping us out when our car battery ran flat! And the cornish cream tea waiting for us on arrival was wonderful!
