If only we could buy this and live here forever. Wonderful property. Some work needed on the leaky roof but didn't impact on the holiday at all. Hot tub was a dream. Thank you so much.
The property is a dream, all mod cons in a glorious setting.
This is a beautiful property that retains its character whilst providing great modern facilities. I could go on about the location but that takes care of itself.

Cornish cottage in a lovely setting
The cottage is very well placed for a beach holiday, it’s a 2min stroll down a pretty lane to the beach. It has a hot tub and views to the sea which is lovely, a lovely pub & restaurant also by the beach, it’s on the coast path too. The cottage itself could do with some general up keep, the downstairs shower room has no door or curtain, so the floor continually gets flooded whenever you shower. There is plaster flaking off walls upstairs. The kitchen is small but well equipped & clean. The garden is pretty, we used some mint from garden for our new potatoes! The house has a lovely sun room, the beds were comfy, there’s also parking for 3 vehicles We really enjoyed our break and the owner kindly offered earlier checkin which was nice even though we didn’t need it. Thank you
