The Experience
Standing like sentries guarding the village pub and green below are two whitewashed 1820s roundhouses with thatched roofs and crosses – believed to keep the devil away. Ingenious how everything fits so neatly within the curving walls in this cosy, quirky hideaway that’s full of local art and retro touches.
Step out from the kitchen extension with a morning espresso, park yourself on a lounger and watch the seagulls swoop in the pretty cottage garden. When night falls, soak in the roll top bath, then retire to an enormous bed under a vaulted ceiling.
Bring bicycles, dogs, kit for the beach and walking boots for the South West Coast Path; the Roseland Peninsula is awash with secret coves and seaside restaurants.

Full of history , it is beautifully furnished, spotless, comfortable ; great for the two of us and our cocker spaniel. There are spectacular walks along the coast right from the cottage. There are superb restaurants nearby. The owner has some great recommendations on the web site . We loved Driftwood for a special lunch time treat on the terrace. The hidden hut is a hidden gem! The instructions to find and open the cottage were faultless. There is helpful information in the cottage, including photos of the path to the beach . We couldn't have asked for more. We will be back!

It was lovely to be back at Round House East during these strange times. It’s a very comfortable cottage in a lovely village. We came last year, but this year we did different walks and visited new places. The Roseland Peninsula is a lovely area to explore.

Round House East is lovely, quirky, homely, spacious and very comfortable for 2 people and super dog friendly (although, most important, did not smell of dogs when we arrived so don’t hesitate to use, non doggy people!). Super king very comfortable bed and felt like ‘home from home’. Gorgeous area for walking the coastal path and a 15 minute walk takes you to the spectacular Pendower beach which is dog friendly. Tried many of Ian’s list of pubs and not disappointed with any of them 🙂 The Roseland Peninsula is a beautiful part of Cornwall we had not visited before and we will be back......

We had a lovely relaxing stay at Round House East. It's perfect for two people, quirky but very comfortable, and super dog friendly. Veryan village has an excellent pub and village store 2 minutes walk away, and walking paths from the door. A great stay.

Location
The neighbourhood
The friendly village of Veryan is on the Roseland Peninsula, close to St. Mawes and within easy reach of Truro, via the King Harry Ferry - voted one of the most scenic ferry trips in the world. The welcoming New Inn serves St Austell beers and good pub food and is just 150 yards from the Roundhouse. The village also has a shop, Post Office and a weekly W.I. market. The South West Coastal Path is close by, it’s a 1.5 mile walk to Portloe beach with pretty Carne and Pendower nearby.
Local points of interest from Ian Rose
- The Hidden Hut is an hour or so's walk along the coast path, perfect for lunch or, if you can get a table, supper on one of their feast nights.
- Walk down from St Anthony Head to the beaches at Great Molunan or Little Molunan. Great views over the Fal Estuary and Carrick Roads and maybe have a swim.
- Freshly caught crab, hand-picked and ready to eat, scallops and whatever fish has come in with the boat, from Curgurrell Farm. Wonderful with Da Bara crusty bread and Camel Valley sparkling wine.
- Walk to Melinsey Mill via Pendower Beach, take tea and enjoy their home-made cakes, or some quiche with a glass of Betty Stogg's, brewed by Skinner's Brewery in Truro.
- Pop over to Da Bara bakery cafe to pick up amazing bread (we love the sourdough), pastries and pies, and fantastic coffee - they have specials for dinner once a week too.

Introducing
Ian Rose
Londoner Ian Rose studied in the West Country and has holidayed there for years. He bought Round House East in 2006 and loves finding new pieces that complement the character of this quirky Grade II retreat. He now lives and works in Sweden and is delighted to provide a base for guests wanting to explore the stunning Cornish coastline. You can bring your hound too - many of the beaches are dog-friendly.
This was our first stay at the Round House East and we were delighted with what awaited us - a well appointed, clean and comfortable accommodation that suited our needs, and that of our labrador, throughout our one week stay. We enjoyed sitting in the garden in the afternoon sun as well as staying warmly snug inside when an October storm arrived. Communications with the owner were first class from the time of booking, to receiving clear arrival directions (using the wider of the local roads) to dealing with any queries we had during our visit (good, reliable WiFi, fast enough for our needs).
