A south-east facing Victorian semi-detached cottage set in an attractive wooded valley 0.5 miles from Perranporth, home to one of the most stunning beaches in the whole of North Cornwall. Featuring an open-plan lounge/diner, two bedrooms and a large enclosed garden, this two-storey gem is perfect for small families or two couples craving a relaxing stay close to the sea.
Accessed via an unmade driveway, the cottage’s charm is immediately obvious even before you step inside its traditionally-styled interior. The open-plan lounge/diner is the kind of snuggly bolthole with a beamed ceiling that comes into its own in the evenings, with comfortable furniture all in one corner and countryside views through its large windows. The kitchen is deceptively large and will take care of any and all of the locally-produced food you can find during your travels. The first floor features a family bathroom and two homely bedrooms, a double bedroom and a twin bedroom, both of which offer ample storage. The cottage’s large enclosed garden enjoys wonderful views of the surrounding countryside, a perfect place to sit and watch the day over a picnic.
Perranporth’s three-mile sandy beach (0.5 miles) is a mecca for water sports lovers, its nearby sand dunes home to a multitude of wildlife. The village itself offers shops, cafes and pubs offering local delicacies, and a trip to any is the ideal way to begin or end a walk along one of the many walking trails in the area, not the least of which is the South West Coast Path.
