Overview
Property code: PC021

A gorgeous property with incredible views for four to stay and enjoy a peaceful holiday by the sea. It's near the base of the town with views across the estuary of sparkling water, boats, cottages and meadows on the northern bank. The garden creates a suntrap and has views of the river, a stunning setting for a BBQ at the end of a busy week exploring the stunning Kernow coast.

As you might expect, Cobalt Cottage has a nautical theme with colourful touches throughout. A farmhouse-style table is set beneath a large window that allows light to flood into the living room. Gather together here for a light lunch before wandering down the road to see the harbour or the ruins of Polruan Castle that's only a few hundred feet from the door. Wonderful views and a neutral colour palette has created a peaceful atmosphere suitable for rest and relaxation.

Ferries run across the estuary so you can travel over to explore Fowey, while less than 2 miles from this property you'll find the National Trust-owned Lantic Bay with a stunning sandy beach. When you're ready for a day trip, travel 16 miles to see exotic plants at the Eden Project, wander the streets of busy town St Austell (18 miles) or drive 19 miles to discover The Lost Gardens of Heligan.

Lovely cottage in a great location, just a few yards from the dock, bakery, shop and the pubs :) Fantastic walking in the area and the ferry to Fowey is frequent and runs until late.

This cottage is very well situated in Polruan, close to the harbour and the ferry to Fowey. The cottage is well equipped and furnished to a high start and ideal for a family of four. There is a small garden area which is ideal for sitting in at the end of a busy day soaking up the Sun and the sounds of Polruan. We enjoyed our stay at the cottage imRead moremensely. We will definitely revisit at some point in the future. Hide

Lovely Cottage nice inside and really close to harbour but not a good location of you have mobility issues as car park is up top of a massive steep hill , you are able to drive down to unload and pick up, we were lucky it was quiet but I would definitely not want to do in height of season, the garden is up 2 flights of really steep steps and was veRead morery mossy and slippery so we didn't even attempt to use Hide

Polruan is a beautiful town and everyone we met were friendly and our dogs were well treated by everyone. The local pubs were lovely especially the Lugger Inn, and the food was excellent.

Beautiful cottage in a great location for us. Very clean on arrival. On the smaller side, however we do have two fairly large Golden Retrievers. Great choice of board games for rainy day & speedy wifi. Kitchen was well equipped. Would definitely return

Absolutely lovely place to stay in Cornwall close to all amenities If you like hill walking you will be at home here. Beware very steep climb to car park. Would highly recommend

A comfortable and well equipped cottage in a good location ( unless views of the harbour are required.). The fact it is dog friendly is a plus. Fortunately the owners were easily contactable as were the local service personnel because the local company office was shut at departure day/time. Never the case when it was Polruan Cottages. ComprehensiveRead more on line information by the company is welcome. However note the essential information before departure as you cant rely on the internet. Hide
