Chapel One
This is the smaller of the two dwellings and has large chapel windows on both floors, which gives a light interior and good views across neighbouring fields.
Rinsey's old Methodist Chapel immediately behind Evergreen Cottage, has been converted into two comfortable dwellings. Their proximity makes for flexibility, allowing either separate lets or a single let for larger families or groups.
Ground-floor modern fully-equipped kitchen/dining room with large pine table sitting six, plus dishwasher and washing machine. The room is light and airy with windows front and back and at the side over the sink.
First-floor sitting room with comfortable sofa and colour TV.
Bedroom with two single beds - can be brought together to make a double bed.
Nightstore heating.
Bathroom with bath, shower and WC.
Garden with small patio and picnic table.

The modern well-equipped kitchen/diner is the comfortable focus of the Chapel One accomodation.
The first floor living room is warm and cosy, with stunning views across the fields to the sea, and Mount's Bay in the distance.
All beds have duvets and pillows. Bed linen is provided, as are washing powder and dishwasher detergent. Electricity is included in the rental.
There are no telephones in the properties but the area is covered by the major mobile phone services.

DIRECTIONS
Rinsey is near Ashton, about 5 miles west of Helston on the A394 which links the main A30 and A39 Roads. On reaching Ashton, take the lane directly opposite the Lion and Lamb pub, signposted to Rinsey. A quarter of a mile down the lane as it bends to the left take the lane straight ahead, again signposted to Rinsey. Another half mile on is Rinsey Green. Evergreen is the first cottage on the left.
The Chapel cottages are situated behind Evergreen. The entrance to Chapel One is at the front and to Chapel Two at the rear of the building. Car access to the Chapels is via a track just before Rinsey Green, to the left of Evergreen. There is also a footpath running from a gate directly to the left of Evergreen cottage.
See the interactive map for the exact location.
LOCAL ATTRACTIONS
The quiet hamlet of Rinsey was in former times a thriving tin mining community dating from the early part of the last century. The long defunct Wheal Prosper Mine has had its engine house and tall chimney restored and stands guard over the breathtaking scenery of Rinsey Head.
The heather and gorse covered cliffs of the Head are owned by the National Trust, and the Cornish coastal path leads eastwards to the charming fishing village of Porthleven and Westwards to the expansive beach of Praa Sands.
The small beach at Rinsey Cove is a steep(ish) walk down the cliff path but well worth the small effort. The sandy beach is embraced by rocks with pools, some deep enough for children to play in.
Rinsey is an ideal spot from which to discover West Cornwall, either by car or for the more adventurous , on foot via the coastal footpath.
Helston, the nearest town, has good shops and two supermarkets. Penzance, St Ives and Truro, each with their very different characters are not very far away. Porthleven, only a few minutes by car along the coast road has a supermarket and several restaurants open in season.
Sorry no pets.
