Overview
Property code: OC-TCHEST

Situated in the picturesque village of Boscastle, just a short walk from the harbour, The Chestnuts is a traditional stone cottage with lots of character, beautifully furnished to a high standard. With off road parking for two cars just across the road from the cottage as well as an enclosed and private garden. The property itself has a spacious feel with a separate lounge and dining room, both featuring wood burning stoves. There are 3 bedrooms on the first floor, the master bedroom boasting a spacious en-suite bathroom. Outside there is a utility room with a smart walk-in shower, perfect for coming straight in from the sea and in the back garden, there's a lovely summer house offering peace and tranquility. 

There's a great convenience store a few minutes away and there's a good selection of local shops, pubs and restaurants within walking distance. Boscastle is a popular destination but if you are a bit more active why not walk up across the cliffs on either side of the harbour and discover some fantastic scenery, visit the Witchcraft Museum, or drive up to St Nectan's Glen with its wonderfull waterfalls.

What a beautiful and comfortable cottage. The cottage was very clean throughout. There was plenty of hot water for the showers. We had a lovely holiday. The location of the cottage is ideal for reaching many interesting places. Definitely recommend.

Chestnut Cottage was a real home from home. It was more spacious than we expected. We really enjoyed our stay there & the village of Boscastle. Special thanks to Mark for sorting the thermostat so promptly. Whilst we were at Chestnut to explore the area, one gripe was the Sky television reception. If we were paying for it. would not be happy (!). Read moreWe did pick up on the games in the evening, especially enjoying Deal Monopoly & Mind. All in all a really enjoyable week. Cheers, Hide

This is a well-appointed cottage that is a short walk down to the Wellington pub, the walk back up the hill is harder - Boscastle is hilly! Another review commented that the cottage is on a main road and parking is on the other side of the road. It is, but this main road isnt as busy as the suburban side road I live in, it is quiet. We enjoyed our Read morestay and were blessed with excellent, warm, sunny September weather. Just unwinding, reading in the garden with a glass of wine and using the cottage as a base. Hide

A very comfortable large property that suited our family of 5 adults very well. Spacious house, beautiful garden and lovely beds/linen. A steep walk back up the hill from Boscastle but works off all the lovely food & drink! Parking is very helpful but slightly tricky (we had an estate car) Road outside meant to be 20mph but was much quicker tRead morehan this not an issue with older kids/adults. Great neighbour, very helpful regarding local area/beaches/tide times etc as no information left in property or a guest book to get recommendations. No welcome pack (milk/tea/coffee etc) handwash, or cleaning products provided. Beautiful area, loved Boscastle; the harbour, SW path walks and surrounding area. Farm shop great and The Good Stuff cafe fab. A few personal touches would make this an outstanding property. Hide

We had a lovely week at the Chestnuts. Very clean. Super comfy beds. Lots of hot water. A spacious property with the exception of the main bathroom, which was incredibly small. Access to the garden was a real bonus as we had a three year old with us. Parking opposite was good and we didn't have a problem with having to cross the road.

Our family of five visited in September, we were over the moon with the cottage, the location, everything. Everything we needed in the most beautiful location and we are already planning our return for next year.

A couple of small issues the key safe instruction was not clear it referred to a shed rather than the garage the neighbours had to help us find it. The parking was referred to as across the road which was correct but actually was at times a very busy which made loading and unloading of cases at times slightly hazardous. The other issue was the washRead more hand basins on the first floor which were much too small and made washing shaving and tooth brushing difficult. None of these issues affected our enjoyment of our stay but hopefully could be addressed Hide
