  • Just one mile from the glorious South West coastal path
  • Great for exploring the harbours and beaches of the south Cornish coast
Property code: OC-43127

Sheltered in the rural countryside sits this pretty cottage for four. It's an ideal retreat for the whole family to escape or great for a group of friends travelling the Cornish coast. Right by the property is The Monkey Sanctuary where you can meet the characterful creatures that make their home there or let your feet lead you along the scenic southern coastline when you stroll down to the South West Coast Path.

Imbued with original charm, this adorable cottage would suit guests who are looking for relaxation and rest after days spent ambling around the local region and refreshed after paddling in clear sea. Stony walls are washed in white and dark beams stretch across the ceiling. Heat up the kettle and take a frothy morning coffee out onto the front porch where you can watch the sun come up and the world gradually awake.

Spend your days wandering between the fishing boats that dock at Looe Harbour and spotting the silvery catches or jump across the bay to pretty Polperro for cliffside houses and a lagoon-like inlet. Beaches litter the edge of the land with two sandy stretches of shore, Millendreath and Seaton, both less than 2 miles away. It's 26 miles to the Eden Project, an essential stop for taking in the wondrous and exotic plants found in their famous domes.

These cottages are a gem of a find. The owners are so friendly and welcoming on arrival. I did enjoy the scones, jam and cream left in the cottage on arrival. Everything is so clean and the place smells fresh. The shower is large, powerful and a lovely temperature. The beds are comfortable and all furnishings matching perfectly. The surrounding arRead moreea is peaceful and lots of safe parking. Definitely worth the money compared with lots of other properties in Cornwall, many of which have no parking. Hide

Such a lovely cottage. Was spotless, comfortable and had everything you needed. Set in a peaceful location was perfect for our family of 4 (older children) to explore Cornwall. A perfect stay, I would highly recommend this cottage for any families wanting to holiday in Cornwall.
