About this property

Finest Retreats | Avalon Sea Views

Panoramic sea views, chic designer interiors, and a glorious sense of relaxation await you at Avalon. This stunningly renovated house sits all on ground floor level and is located right above the coastline in the peaceful village of Downderry—ideal for a special getaway for a couple or small family.

Offering expansive open plan living with contemporary styling, including a triptych log burner in the centre of the space, guests can enjoy their holiday retreat in luxury, with the sound of the waves just outside.

There are three bedrooms:
• The first is a spacious king-size bed (which can be converted into two small single beds) with an en-suite shower room, double doors out to a private patio, and sweeping sea views.
• The second bedroom has a double bed with an en-suite shower room, double doors to the main patio, and stunning sea views.
• The third bedroom has two bunk beds, sleeping up to four children.

The bunk bedroom is best suited for younger children (under 10) or a maximum of two older children (up to 17). If you wish to accommodate six adults, an additional studio room can be booked. The studio includes either two single beds or a king-sized bed, a sea view, sliding doors to a private patio, and an en-suite shower room. Please enquire for more details.

The main family bathroom is generously sized and fully tiled, featuring a freestanding deep-soak tub for a touch of refined luxury. The kitchen facilities are excellent, with everything you’d expect, including two ovens and plenty of kitchen gadgets. As well as the interior dining table, which seats up to six, there is also plenty of space to dine al fresco, with a bistro table for two on the patio and a larger table seating six on the lawn below.

Located between Torpoint and Looe, guests will be within walking distance of a café, restaurant, and pub, as well as the beach! With Downderry Beach and village less than a quarter of a mile to the east, and Seaton Beach and valley less than a mile to the west, there are plenty of beautiful coastal walks straight from the door.

Within easy reach by car is the Rame Peninsula, or "Forgotten Cornwall"—a lovely area to explore and often much quieter than the rest of the county, even in high summer. The historic fishing town of Looe is just a short drive away, along with the stunning Fowey estuary, the picturesque cove of Polperro, and many other attractions.

Spectacular Property!

Overall our experience was absolutely fantastic. The house is stunning and true to the pictures! Sitting on the couch, staring out at the water through the floor-to-ceiling windows while enjoying a cozy fire was the perfect way to spend our Christmas holiday. It is the perfect location, with easy access to the beach and great restaurants within walking distance. Thank you so much to the owner who gave us so many great suggestions of what to do in the area, provided dog beds knowing we were bringing a dog with us, was quick to respond to all of our queries and made the overall experience so easy and wonderful! Would highly recommend.

Absolutely Amazing Property!

Absolutely amazing property with wonderful edge of the ocean views, delightful private outdoor space and equipped with everything necessary to make it a home from home. The large open plan dining / lounge area meant that we enjoyed evenings together as a family and the dog loved the space too. The owner was very helpful and friendly prior to arrival with information about local areas of interest and was so kind on departure when she allowed us an extended stay to sort out an issue with our onward travel arrangements. We all agree that we would return again and have no hesitation in recommending Avalon as a place to stay.

My wife and I have stayed at Avalon on many occasions

My wife and I have stayed at Avalon on many occasions. The property makes a wonderful base for exploring Cornwall. The facilities at Avalon are perfect, the owner provides all required for a self catering holiday. All rooms are very tastefully furnished, Sky TV on tap. Views from the garden are glorious. Local area has a choice Restaurants there is a lovely sandy beach for early morning, and evening strolls. If its peace, and quiet you want Downderry is the Perfect location. 🥰 Nothing!
