The cottage is fantastic and my husband and I agree that it is the best cottage we have ever booked in Cornwall. It has been beautifully renovated and thoughtfully equipped.

Parc Place – self-catering accommodation in Gwithian village
Parc Place is a beautifully refurbished, detached cottage situated in the heart of Gwithian village, just a short walk from Gwithian Beach and the surrounding nature reserves.

Guest Review
With a Cornish husband (born in Penzance and family homes in Hayle and Lelant plus our son went to Falmouth Uni) we have been regular visitors to Cornwall for over 30 years. In more recent years without family in Cornwall we have rented cottages and while we had Nancy our 1979 Vdub we camped at Gwithian campsite. December 23 was our first visit to Parc Place and it won’t be our last. We have already booked for April and December 2024. Gwithian and Godrevy are my favourite places in Cornwall, so when we came across Parc Place we booked. From the moment we made contact with Zoe she was brilliant, efficient and friendly. The cottage is fantastic and my husband and I agree that it is the best cottage we have ever booked in Cornwall. It has been beautifully renovated and thoughtfully equipped. The cottage has everything you need for a fantastic stay in terms of fully stocked kitchen, really comfy beds, fab showers etc. It had really cold weather during our stay but the cottage was always warm and cosy. The location couldn’t be better, quiet location, short walk to the pub and best of all short walk to the beautiful beaches of Gwithian and Godrevy. So looking forward to our next visit.
