Step out straight from this exquisite former fisherman’s cottage and wander down to the harbour at Polruan. With spectacular views straight out over the River Fowey, the attractive, two-bedroom abode sleeps up to four guests and welcomes one canine companion. Wander the pretty streets of the village, catch the ferry over to vibrant Fowey and head out along the beautiful South Cornwall coast to discover charming villages and scenic coves.
Open the front door to this character-filled cottage and make yourselves at home in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Relax on the sofa in front of a film on the Smart TV or have a cup of tea at the table as you look out over the harbour. Prepare meals in here too with the fresh, local produce you have bought in the village and find there is a handy utility space, with washer/dryer, and a downstairs shower room. Climb the cottage-style stairs to discover a double room with a window seat, where you can lose yourselves in the magnificent outlook, and a twin room with two specially made 2’6” single beds, one of which is slightly higher and accessed by steps. Unload your luggage in front of the cottage then park at the pay and display village car park 0.4 miles away.
Lace up your walking boots and make the 7-mile walk from Polruan to Polperro. Stop for a swim or to go snorkelling at Lansallos Beach along the way. Those looking for an even longer, scenic walk can go as far as Looe, 12 miles away. Head inland and drive 16 miles to reach the edge of Bodmin Moor, with its myriad walks taking you through its dramatic landscapes. Venture 15.5 miles to spend the day at the famous Eden Project, with its beautiful gardens and indoor rainforest.
