Laloma is a magical name for a beautiful holiday cottage. Dating back to the 1700s, the traditional thatched property has spectacular views of the Helford River and is within skipping distance of the village shop and the Shipwrights Arms in Helford. It has been in the owner's family for decades, and there's a real sense of warmth and welcome as you cross the threshold. It's ideal for families, with space for six people to sleep in three bedrooms, a country kitchen overlooking the garden to the river, and off-street parking for two cars. Laloma is everything you could wish for your self-catering holiday in Cornwall.
The Helford River is one of Cornwall's most beautiful waterways. As you watch sailboats bobbing along the river, imagine the village's busy heyday when boats brought in rum, lace and tobacco - not always legally! The Helford Valley's beauty is almost too good to be true. Hire a boat or a kayak and explore from the water, or follow paths along the bank through ancient oak forests and past farmland. Top of your wish list should be a ride on the pedestrian ferry over the river to the sub-tropical gardens at Glendurgan and Trebah. Those who love the beach will adore the sandy shore at Bosahan and Grebe. Helford is also on the South-West coast footpath. There is a foot ferry which crosses the Helford River where the footpath continues to Falmouth. Just a short walk from Helford Village is Frenchman’s Creek, made famous by Daphne Du Maurier’s book of the same name.
If you're searching for a place to relax, then this thatched Cornwall holiday cottage is it. Local attractions include the Seal Sanctuary at Gweek, Trelowarren House, and National Trust owned Durgan Village. Helford is part of the Lizard Heritage Coast with miles of footpaths and cycleways. Guests rate Laloma highly for its peaceful location, panoramic views, and stargazing opportunities.
