Situated in the picturesque village of Boscastle, just a short walk from the harbour, this traditional stone cottage with lots of character is ideal for families or friends looking for a restful holiday in this beautiful part of Cornwall. Keen walkers can take a clifftop ramble or take in the beautiful lush landscape of the verdant Valency Valley, one of the areas that inspired Thomas Hardy and many other authors, artists and poets with its beauty and tranquillity.

This inviting property, set over two floors, is elegantly furnished and has a spacious feel with a separate lounge and dining room, both of which feature cosy wood burners. The lounge is a lovely social space, with plenty of comfortable seating to help you unwind at the end of a day of adventure and a Smart TV to watch your favourite films. Doors from the lounge lead to the back garden. The contemporary kitchen makes meal preparation a dream. A wet room completes the features on the ground floor. There is a shower room and three bedrooms on the first floor - one king-size room with an en-suite shower room, one twin room, and a single room. Outside is an enclosed garden, so it is safe for children to play, with a summer house and garden furniture. This is a peaceful private space to enjoy dining alfresco in fine weather.

If you are interested in local history, visit the nearby Witchcraft Museum (1 mile) or explore the rugged coastline on the way to Merlin’s Cave (4 miles). St Nectan’s Glen (2.5 miles) offers walkers an easily accessible mile long walk to view the wonderful waterfalls. One of the best family beaches is found at Bude. Summerleaze Beach (16 miles) is popular with families and surfers, so take your buckets and spades and enjoy a great family day out.

Our family of five visited in September, we were over the moon with the cottage, the location, everything. Everything we needed in the most beautiful location and we are already planning our return for next year.

A couple of small issues the key safe instruction was not clear it referred to a shed rather than the garage the neighbours had to help us find it. The parking was referred to as across the road which was correct but actually was at times a very busy which made loading and unloading of cases at times slightly hazardous. The other issue was the washRead more hand basins on the first floor which were much too small and made washing shaving and tooth brushing difficult. None of these issues affected our enjoyment of our stay but hopefully could be addressed Hide
