Prepare to fill your days with endless walks, surf lessons, touring local towns and endless Cornish pasties when staying in this delectable retreat. Filled to the brim with eclectic decor and original features, this two-storey seaside town cottage invites a couple or a small family of three to get away together and stay in exceptional comfort. Offering space to unwind both indoors and out, a cosy wood burner to curl up by when the temperature drops and a plush king-size bed to sink into each night, you’re sure to feel incredibly well-rested throughout any length of stay here.

On arrival, pass by the small terrace area with outdoor seating, a charcoal BBQ and plants that lend the property an exciting Mediterranean feel. Once indoors, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner invites you in with a wood burner gently tucked away in an original stone fireplace. This room is furnished with ample soft seating, a bespoke, fitted kitchen and a Smart TV – everything you might need for a rejuvenating evening in. Also downstairs, the relaxation continues in the bathroom with a sumptuous slipper bath and separate shower, made for soaking whichever way you prefer. Moving upstairs, the first floor is split into two bedrooms, a spacious king-size with plenty of storage and a compact single bedroom for one.

Absolutely fantastic property. Every detail has been thought of by the owners. Beautifully decorated rooms. Extremely comfortable beds. Really helpful information pack. Gorgeous beaches nearby.

Also worth noting that although it is on quite a busy road there is no road noise audible inside the cottage. Totally deserves 5 stars. Hide

Excellent centrally situated , comfortable with tasteful decoration. I would love the bedroom at home apart from the lovely bathroom being downstairs.

The cottage itself was lovely. Spotlessly clean and everything one would need in the kitchen was available to use.
