Set in a superb location for exploring Cornwall’s beautiful countryside and southern coastline, this semi-detached cottage makes a perfect base for couples or small families with the dogs in tow. Walk from your door and join the South West Coat Path for exhilarating hikes or pack a picnic and head to the sand-and-shingle beach at Seaton (2 miles). For more days at the seaside, head along the coast to beaches, coves and bays galore – including Lansallos, Whitsand Bay, Talland Bay, and Cawsand (all within 13 miles). In Looe (3.5 miles) you’ll find an array of independent shops, restaurants, another sandy beach and all kinds of water sports, plus boat trips and sea safaris. For great days out, Porfell Wildlife Park & Sanctuary is just 11.5 miles away, while Adrenalin Quarry – for zip-wires, go-karting and an aqua park – is 6 miles away, while the renowned Eden Project is only 24 miles.

Step through the front door to discover a warm and welcoming living space filled with homely furniture, art works and wooden accents. This open-plan area combines the kitchen, lounge and diner – forming the social heart of the property. The farmhouse-style kitchen includes both a microwave and a dishwasher to help make cooking and cleaning quick and easy, and there’s a wooden dining table where you can enjoy sociable meals or set out a board game. Cosy seating and a Smart TV add another great option for quiet nights at home. A cute twin bedroom leads off the living space and makes use of a family bathroom with a free-standing bath. On the first floor is a stunning double bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and an en-suite shower room.

Your private, enclosed patio is furnished for drinks or meals in the fresh air, and has wonderful views over rolling fields. Sip a sundowner as you listen to birdsong or grill some local seafood on the BBQ. You may also enjoy the extensive shared gardens, which include a huge lawn – perfect for games – with seating placed to enjoy the views, a wild meadow, small orchard and sweet children’s play area. Another benefit of this superb holiday escape is private parking for one car.

Cottage is located in a lovely peaceful part of Cornwall, the approach roads however were very challenging. The approach path from the car park to the front door was very steep and a handrail would be helpful. Disabled people would have difficulties.

The cottage is stunning! We loved our time there and would rate it 11/10 if we could. The bed was so comfortable that I didnt want to leave it. Everything we needed was available and we will definitely return. A hidden diamond in a beautiful area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Lovely cottage. Great location - remote and quiet yet only a few minutes from Looe or Seaton. Very comfy bed. The garden was beautiful. Seaton beach was fabulous for the dogs. :-)
