Sat between historic Tintagel and the famous seafood haven of Padstow, Jessamine Cottage invites you to drift into ‘holiday mode' and discover North Cornwall. From the moment you're greeted by the charming stone facade, this traditional period cottage feels homely and secluded: a bolthole to retreat to when the day's adventure is done. Wake up the next morning to sea views from the master bedroom luring you out of bed for breakfast in the sunshine.
Romantic rusticity is retained by original features such as the stonework surrounding the fireplace, and the exposed beams throughout. Soft warm tones and comfy furnishings are enhanced by the fuzzy glow of the wood burner, where you can snuggle down with a hot chocolate and a DVD on chilly evenings. Enjoy a home-cooked supper at the farmhouse-style kitchen table, or alfresco while soaking up sea views from the courtyard.
A pub is within an easy stroll at under 100 metres away, while a wider array of eateries and attractions await in the fishing village of Port Isaac, a 3-mile drive. Here you can explore local galleries and craft shops, take a boat trip, or embark on a fishing expedition and bring home something to sizzle on the BBQ during summer months. Walkers can join the stunning South West Coast Path here, or head 7 miles inland to the wild and wonderful, Bodmin Moor. Get stuck into water-sports in Rock (8 miles away), or delight in the culinary treasures of Padstow, a 15-mile drive.
