Anyone keen to answer the call of the Cornish coast, look no further than this homely, family-friendly cottage set in the heart of Polperro; magnificent boat trips, sandy shores and dramatic coastal walks await from the doorstep.
The inviting glow of the wood burner, plush sofa and homely touches in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner that welcomes you into this retreat set the scene for pure relaxation, beckoning weary travellers to cook, unwind and dine long into the evening. Just off the living space, you'll find a handy entrance area that doubles as a quiet study, perfect for catching up on a good book or planning your next adventure. Head upstairs to soak weary walking muscles in the sleek freestanding bath in the contemporary family bathroom before retiring to either of the two peaceful double bedrooms brimming with charm, one of which features handy en-suite facilities. Upstairs, you’ll also find a playful bunk bedroom that children will adore. Soak up your salty sea air as you dine alfresco on the small terrace, which also features a dedicated dog shower. There is private parking for one car at the cottage.
The idyllic fishing village of Polperro is as picture-perfect as they come, home to a labyrinth of narrow streets lined with a host of charming local shops selling paintings, pottery and jewellery. Discover the rich maritime history of the area at the Polperro Heritage Museum of Smuggling and Fishing overlooking the harbour, less than half a mile away, or embark on a seafaring expedition to uncover concealed coves and mysterious sea caves from Polperro Harbour (0.5 miles). Golden sands and crystal waters await beach lovers at Talland Bay, 4 miles away, which offers thrill-seekers plenty of water sports opportunities to enjoy, including kayaking and paddleboarding
